dGalvanised angle & rail extensions to be installed to provide suitablebearing for fixing of panels on return elevation, by a steel fabricator

fApply an unbroken 6mm Øbead of gun-grade sealant togalvanised angle ensuring itmeets the previously installedair seals

gLocate first panel (P1)ensuring it is correctlypositioned lined and levelled

hInstall min. 2 No. main

fasteners through the malejoint at the top, intermediate

and bottom locations

Note: Some installations may requireadditional fasteners depending on windloadings/specifications. Check project

specific details.

iAt corner positions, throughfix countersunk fastenersat 500mm max. centresinto female panel joint

Note: Fasteners to be suitably located toensure they are covered by external cornerflashing. Also applicable at door/window

jamb abutments.

eApply an unbroken 6mm Øbead of gun-grade sealant totop rail or internal flashing to

provide an air seal

jRun a gun-grade air seal across male jointensuring it meets previously installed air seal

lLocate next panel (P2) into position

ensuring that the factory applied weatherseal is compressed and that the AWP fillerremains in position. Ensure panel is linedand levelled correctly in line with adjacent

panel install min. 2 No. main fastenersthrough the male joint at the top,intermediate and bottom locations

mRepeat processes j to l to

complete elevation

nInstall site applied PIR insulationboard and gun applied fire rated

canister insulation into female jointto fill the gap between panels

(P1) and (P5) to ensurecontinuity of insulation

oCut panel (P5) to size usingan evolution type circular saw,ensuring it meets the outside

edge of (P1)

Note: Do not use abrasive wheel cutter.All cutting should be done at ground level.

pLocate panel (P5) in to position

ensuring factory applied weather sealis compressed and AWP filler

remains in position

qAt corner positions, through fixcountersunk fasteners at 500mm

max. centres in to panel (P5) at cutedge of panel

Note: Fasteners to be suitably located to ensurethey are covered by external corner flashing.

sApply 4mm Ø butyl sealant (site applied) to theexternal legs of the internal corner flashing, ensuresealant is positioned weather side of fasteners

rApply 4mm Ø butyl sealant (site applied) to theback of the internal corner flashing, ensure sealantis positioned weather side of fastener. Fix internalcorner flashing with low profile stitching screws atmax. 450mm centre

Note:The structure should be suitably designed to suitboth the Benchmark Karrier Panel insulated panel andBenchmark Ceramic Tile Façade System. Ensure steelwork issuitably lined, levelled and within tolerance.Visually check theinternal liner joint to ensure panels are joined fully.Check panel cover width module as works progress to ensure“creep” does not occur, particularly important when windowsare incorporated into the elevation.Joints need to be aligned correctly during installation toprevent the ‘saw tooth’ effect at the drip.Gun-grade sealant type – non-setting butyl sealant

– silicone sealant.This is a generic Benchmark Karrier Panel wall installationguide and details may differ from project to project.Project specific construction details must be used. Pleasecontact Kingspan envirocare® technical services for furtherinformation on 0800 587 0090.
