STONE
Natural stone, granite, terracotta or brick-faced precast
cladding offers all the benefits of these natural materials
with the added advantages of cost effective production
of large components and speedy site times in comparison
to traditional building techniques. In addition, difficult
elements such as stone facings to soffit and other anti-gravity
features can be accommodated with ease.
Stone facing is an increasingly popular technique in
which precast concrete acts as a carrier for a veneer
of a wide rage of natural stones including granite, limestone,
slate and sandstone. A well established technique that
also incorporates the use of slip membranes and mechanical
as opposed to adhesive bonding, stone facing offers many
advantages over traditional methods.
