External Wall Construction :
External Brick/ Cavity/ Non-combustible Mineral Wool/ SFS
When using mineral wool insulation within the above wall build-up, we have used an Ancon 25/15 Restraint System which were co-ordinated with the SFS stud locations.
Please note compression sleeves may be required for some semi-rigid/ flexible type mineral wool insulations in order to prevent the wall tie system compressing the insulation - as noted below
Self-drilling high-thread screws are available for use with a maximum combined insulation and backing board thickness of 220mm.
When using rigid insulation board up to a depth of 220mm or Isover Polterm Max Plus, Knauf Insulation Earthwool RainScreen Slab and ROCKWOOL Rainscreen Duo Slab up to 180mm, the screws can be installed directly through the insulation.
When using other thicknesses of these insulations or other semi-rigid/flexible insulations, an Ancon Compression Sleeve (the same depth as the insulation) should be used around the fixing screws to provide the necessary support.
Refer to link and insulation supplier for clarification.
