TL;DR: A stone cladded system for walls, including metal battens mounted in arrays of vertically extending, laterally spaced battens on a supporting wall structure of a building, is described in this paper.
Abstract: A stone cladded system for walls, including metal battens mounted in arrays of vertically extending, laterally spaced battens on a supporting wall structure of a building. Stonelike cladding members extruded or molded from cementious material are mounted on the battens and provide an exterior wall surface for a building. The battens provide upwardly facing, hook-shaped support projections which extend into downwardly open grooves in the cladding members to support the cladding members on the battens. Bendable locking tabs are provided on the battens which are bent out over the upper edges of the associated cladding members to lock the cladding members in position in engagement with the hook-shaped support projections.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a study on the impact of wall systems and cladding materials on the CO2 emissions and aim to analyse the performance of those systems in order to provide designers with reliable technical data.
TL;DR: In this article, a wood core with a groove formed in each of its sides and a protective cladding formed on its top surface is used to secure adjacent planks together, where T-shaped connector clips can be provided with the arms receivable in the grooves of the plank for securing adjacent plans.
Abstract: A plank having a wood core with a groove formed in each of its sides and a protective cladding formed on its top surface. The wood core is formed by bonding a plurality of wood strips or chips together. The cladding is provided by a sheet of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylic, polycarbonate, and composites thereof that is bonded to the top surface, or by two or another number of sheets of a material selected from the group consisting of polyester, phenol, epoxy, and composites thereof, that are sprayed or rolled onto the top surface. T-shaped connector clips can be provided with the arms receivable in the grooves of the plank for securing adjacent planks together.
TL;DR: In this paper, an exterior building cladding system has anchor and washer arrangements for securing horizontal furring in spaced relation to one another and to the exterior of the building, and the bottom hanger of the top panels are joined to top hanger on adjacent bottom panel by a horizontal spline.
Abstract: An exterior building cladding system has anchor and washer arrangements for securing horizontal furrings in spaced relation to one another and to the exterior of the building. Top hanger on inside surface of the panels is mounted on the horizontal furring and the bottom hanger of the top panels are joined to top hanger of adjacent bottom panel by a horizontal spline which mounts the horizontal furring. Side hangers of adjacent panel are joined together by a vertical spline.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a probabilistic method to support the design of cladding wall systems subjected to blast loads, which is based on the broadly adopted fragility analysis method (conditional approach).
