The DAKO SMART anchoring system of glassfibre reinforced concrete facades is based on the principle of integrating supporting parts directly into the panels during their production. The method of attaching the supporting frame to the glassfibre reinforced concrete part allows the panel to move during its reshaping due to external conditions. The use of DAKO SMART anchoring system brings many shape options in the design, as well as advantages in the subsequent realization. Therefore, the final shape of the facade is given only by the facade panels, which is beneficial particularly when designing a complicated architecture.
The integrated supporting frame ensures the rigidity of GRC panels in their entire area. It is, therefore, possible to produce parts larger than 3.5 m2 which can be easily manipulated with machines and then attached to a facade, without the risk of damage. Only a small telescopic crane is needed to handle the facade panels with a frame, and they can be installed with a significantly smaller number of workers than in the case of manual installation of otherwise anchored panels. The rectification system of the entire set will enable to attach the large-format panels accurately, even in the event of certain inaccuracies that occur on the construction site. Compared to other methods of panel anchoring, the combination of large formats, and quick installation is an economically advantageous solution for many projects, too.
The STUD-FRAME system is a variant of Smart anchoring where the integrated support enables anchoring of large-format parts, as well as of those more complex in form, without the need to install other subdesigns. The frame is spatially adapted to the shape of facade panels, and its rear part is parallel to the supporting structure of the building.
