Figure 8: Example of “Thick ci” cladding attachment approach
More information on the “Thick ci” approach can be found in the details section of this application guide.
For larger buildings and heavier cladding systems, the required structural connections often need a
different design approach to accommodate a continuous insulation with minimal thermal bridging.
Traditionally, relieving or shelf angles are used to collect the gravity load of heavy masonry veneers every
one or two floors. For heavy-weight cladding attachment systems, please see the application guide for
