WINCRO MASONRY SUPPORT SYSTEMS

WS/C BRACKET ANGLE SYSTEMS
Description A Wincro WS/C Bracket/Angle System comprises a continuous thin angle support complete with welded brackets generally incorporating the Patented Wincro serrated slot and boss fixing  in conjunction with T-head bolts and cast-in channel for applications fixing to concrete structures.	Typical Bracket Angle System (click on thumbnail to view full version)
Examples of variations to suit other construction applications are illustrated below.	E.g. of standard angle lengths: 3000mm for 8mm thick and over 3500mm for 5mm and 6mm thick 1750mm for 4mm thick
WS/C systems are available in various thicknesses and leg dimensions dependent upon the masonry height to be supported and the cavity width. Each system being designed to have sufficient adjustment in vertical, horizontal and lateral directions so as to accommodate all construction tolerances.
Performance WS/C systems can be designed to suit brickwork up to 10m in height accommodating various cavity widths usually up to 150mm wide. The example shown below indicates standard WS/C system codes to suit typical brickwork height/cavity width combinations to enable the specifier to select the correct system for any given application. For combinations other than those catered for in the specification guide, including variations in cladding type and thickness, please consult our technical department.
WS/C Bracket Angle Systems Specification Guide Example: WS/C100/4.0(T) = A Wincro continuous support system to suit a 100mm wide cavity, supporting 4 metre high single skin brickwork, fixed using T-head bolts in continuous cast-in channel.	WS / C 100 / 4.0 (T) Wincro System Continuous Cavity width (mm) Single skin Brickwork height (m) Fixing type T = T-head bolt E = Expansion anchor R = Resin anchor S = Setscrew (Teflon coated) H = Hollo-bolt
WS/C Typical Applications
Concrete structure (Cast-in Channel Fixing)	Concrete structure (Expansion bolt Fixing)
Steelwork Structure	Composite deck
Hollow Section	Soffit Brickwork Soffit Brickwork Detail All Wincro WS/C Support Systems can be adapted to support soffit brickwork construction by the incorporation of 'clip' hangers, positioned at 225mm horizontal centres, complete with stitching rods,  located in holes in the soldier course brickwork. Hanger stirrup clipped to angle support plate. Stitching Rods 6 dia x 300 long to lap (min) 75mm with adjacent rod. Rods to be fully grouted in perforations. Grout to achieve adequate strength prior to removal of temporary propping.
