TS Installation
1
Whichever end of the bay you start at you always begin with the TS Start Panel. If the TS Start Panel needs to be cut on site, this can be done using a fine toothed saw to reduce either the length or width of the panel as required.
External parallel blockwork adjacent to the TS Start Panels should be brought up an extra course to provide a vertical surface against which the panels can be installed.
2
The TS Start Panel should be held against the inner skin of the wall. The first beam in the bay is then moved into position to support this panel.
3
The other floor beams in the bay should be positioned as shown on the Rackham layout drawing and spaced out using a suitable gauge between beams just above the shoulder.
4
The TS infill panels should be placed between the beams.
5
Before installing the last panel and beam in the bay you must first install the TS End Panel.
6
The TS End panel should be against the inner skin of the wall and the last floor beam moved into position to support this panel.
7
When the TS End panel is in position, the final TS Infill panel / Make Up panel can be installed. If necessary, the make up panel can be cut to size with a hand saw.
8
Where panels have to be cut to length (the standard length of the panel is 1220mm) the minimum permissible length cut is 300mm.
