Choose the Most Appropriate Method of Installation for Wall Cladding
November 01, 2023
The first step for outdoor stone wall cladding is to determine the most appropriate method of installation. Yushi Stone suggests dry hanging method for most outdoor wall cladding projects especially for heavy stone materials like granite and thick marble. The dry hanging method of wall cladding keeps the stone separated from the main structure, thus eliminating the danger of the stone falling due to the adhesive aging and failing in an outdoor humid environment. For light thin stone wall cladding, Yushi Stone uses the wet pasting method with a high-performance waterproof adhesive to guarantee a good bond. The most appropriate method of installation is determined by the Yushi Stone’s professional team in relation to the type of stone, its thickness, and the structure of the wall cladding, thus providing a solid foundation for the stability of outdoor wall cladding.
Do Anti Rust Treatment Photographs for Wall Cladding Keels
When it comes to outdoor stone wall cladding, the anti-rust treatment of the keels is critical. Yushi Stone uses top quality anti-rust metallic materials for the keel and fixing components of wall cladding, and applies multiple anti-rust coatings to all metal parts. The welded sections of wall cladding keels are treated and sealed to ensure that water and air are kept out to prevent rusting. Yushi Stone inspects the keels during the wall cladding installation to verify that all anti-rust treatments are completed. Comprehensive anti-rust treatment of keels provides long-term structural safety for the outdoor wall cladding, and eliminates the risk of metal corrosion.
Get Your Outdoor Wall Cladding Stone Spliced Perfectly
Stone wall cladding is multifaceted as it can be creative while incorporating the structural function of protection. Precise splicing is done during installation, creating the beauty of the cladding, while ensuring its durability. Yushi Stone has developed methods whereby wall cladding stone is processed through CNC precision equipment, capturing the required wall cladding splicing gaps. This methodology achieves uniform splicing gaps, as they are set out to the standard. The purpose of the splicing gap is to cater to the thermal expansion and contraction of the stone; out-door temperature changes can cause cracking and deformation of wall cladding. Trained Yushi Stone installers have the capability of achieving the required legislation of stone wall cladding through the use of professional positioning tools to control the flatness and verticality of spliced stones, creating an ideal architectural presentation.
Sealing of Outdoor Wall Cladding by Experts
Sealing treatment is one of the most important measures to improve the water resistance and anti-dirt performance of outdoor stone wall cladding. Yushi Stone applies nontoxic and climate protective proprietary sealant to the joints and stone face of outdoor wall cladding to create a closed protective barrier. For water permeable stone materials like travertine and limestone used in wall cladding, Yushi Stone performs full surface sealing treatment to prevent water from entering and to protect stone from weathering and discoloration. Sealing treatment of outdoor wall cladding by Yushi Stone is done in compliance with the construction temperature and humidity to ensure that the sealant performs well and lasts long.
Reinforcing Attachments of Key Sections for wall cladding
Reinforcing attachments of key sections is fundamental for keeping the overall stability of outdoor stone wall cladding. Yushi Stone concentrates on shifting the reinforcing attachments on the corner, edge, and structure junction areas of outdoor wall cladding and increases the number of reinforcing attachments and reinforces the keel. For stone wall cladding of high-rise buildings’ exteriors, Yushi Stone applies double attachments for each stone piece to avoid wall cladding drop because of heavy winds and other external forces. The professional team of Yushi Stone check and firm each key section attachments of wall cladding during the installation to clear the remaining safety issues.
Carry Out Strict Acceptance for Finished Wall Cladding
Strict Finished Product Acceptance (FPA) fosters quality assurance during installation of exterior stone wall cladding. Yushi Stone, for example, has developed vertical, horizontal, splicing, sealing, and construction keel, among others, critical parameters for acceptance of outdoor wall cladding. Acceptance at Yushi Stone is done by a qualified professional acceptance team who inspects and ensures all components of the wall cladding before acceptance. Yushi Stone re-evaluates wall cladding components and withdraws unqualified parts for modification until wall cladding meets acceptable parameters. Yushi Stone conducts strict acceptance to promote all exterior wall cladding projects.
