Panels are fixed to load bearing frames using penetrating panel fasteners. Fastener type is selected based on load bearing frame material (steel, wood or concrete) and panel thickness. Please contact Ruukki for recommended fasten- ing type. The edge distance for the fastening (distance from fastening to panel edge) has to be ≥ 30 mm. When calcu- lating the needed amount of panel fasteners, following loads need to be considered:Wind suction load (pull-through strength): The needed amount of fasteners can be easily calculated by using Ruukki’s dimensionin program TrayPan. Alternatively, fasteners can be calculated manually by using tensile strength values as given in table 1 below.
