Project overview
During the course of discussions with the design team and Lancashire Brick, Fabspeed identified an area on the ground floor colonnade where a deeper brick-faced soffit panel was required.
FabSpeed designed these areas to be clad retrospectively after the brickwork had been completed to remove this from the critical path and used Pro-Clad 3 with the bricks fabricated using our BBA-accredited epoxy resin but also with a mechanical key to lock the bricks to the main structure of the building.
This was done by creating a groove in the edge of the brick and installing a stainless steel restraint rail, which holds every individual brick slip in position in addition to the adhesive bond.
