1.1This guide covers the categories of anchors and anchoring systems and discusses the design principles to be considered in selecting anchors or systems that will resist gravity loads and applied loads.

1.2This guide sets forth basic requirements for the design of stone anchorage and provides a practical checklist of those design considerations.

1.3This guide pertains to:

1.3.1The anchoring of stone panels directly to the building structure for support,

1.3.2The anchoring of stone panels to subframes or to curtainwall components after these support systems are attached to the building structure,

1.3.3The anchoring of stone panels to subframes or to curtainwall components with stone cladding preassembled before these support systems are attached to the building structure, and

1.3.4The supervision and inspection of fabrication and installation of the above.

1.4Observe all applicable regulations, specific recommendations of the manufacturers, and standards governing interfacing work.

1.5The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
