Atlas Explained
Atlas Masonry Support is a façade support system for use when fixing directly to the concrete slab or blockwork. Post drilling is required on site, however, the system gives the ultimate adjustment ensuring the system is easy to fit and extremely accurate.
Atlas masonry support solution features
Vertical adjustment
This can be accommodated via the use of alpha or serrated washers over vertical slots in the system.
Longitudinal adjustment
This can be accommodated via horizontal slots in steelwork or via a continuous cast in channel.
Lateral adjustment
This can be accommodated via stainless steel shims. The maximum allowable shim is the thickness of the bolt or 12mm whichever is less. If shimming exceeds this figure please liaise with the technical department.
