Application

Sitting within the width of a single block, VEW3 Spine Posts add strength without ruining the ‘fair faced’ finish of internal walls.

Description

VEW3 Spine Posts add strength and stability to single leaf walls without protruding beyond the width of the blockwork. 


In this way, decorative wall surfaces and ‘fair faced’ finishes are possible without compromising on safety.

Although the width of VEW3 Spine Posts is limited by the width of the masonry (recommend they sit within the wall by at least 10 mm either side), the thickness of the post itself can be increased to add to its load capacity.


Spine posts are tied in using WPT2 ties. These are usually supplied 200mm long and can be ordered with a debonding sleeve for spine posts being used at movement joint locations.


We undertake the design of the angle section and fixings required and will also produce layout drawings detailing the fixing positions, angle lengths and sectional details for approval prior to manufacture.


Once approved, the layout drawings are then marked up to show individual angle references for ease of location and setting out on site.
