QV Systems

THE QV1.1 system is widely used for attachment of cladding panels, using visible fasteners.
In addition, QV1.1 can serve as the vertical attachment basis for other cladding systems. 

QV1.1 is most suitable for concrete and masonry (CMU) substrates.
It can be used on a stud wall where the vertical profile location is independent of the joint layout. 

The system consists of QVB wall brackets and vertical T and L profiles:

> The vertical profiles are attached to the QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.
> The fixed connections absorb both dead and wind loads. The sliding connections absorb the wind load  and allow for the thermal movement.
> Cladding panels are attached to the vertical profiles using exposed fasteners, usually painted to match the cladding finish.

The wall brackets come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion. 

The QV1.2 system is an exposed attachment system designed for stud walls and where a horizontal support is required for the vertical rails.
The panels are attached to vertical HAT and J rails using visible fasteners. 

 The vertical rails are attached to one of the following configurations of horizontal supports:

1. Continuous horizontal HAT / J / Z rails attached directly to the wall.
2. Continuous horizontal T rails fixed to the stud wall and L clips, at every vertical rail, fixed to the horizontal T rail.
3. Continuous L rails attached to QHB wall brackets. 

All options come with thermo-pads to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion. 

The QV2 system is suitable for structural adhesive attachment of many cladding types.
Panels are attached to vertical T and L profiles using various adhesive systems, specified by the cladding manufacturer.
QV2 is most suitable for concrete and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> The vertical profiles are attached to QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.
> The fixed connections absorb both dead and wind loads. The sliding connections absorb the wind load and allow for the thermal movement.
> The adhesive system is applied on the installed vertical profiles.
> The cladding panels are pressed firmly to the vertical profiles until they contact the bonding agent, following the adhesive manufacturer’s guidelines.

The wall brackets come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

The QV3.1 system is designed to attach horizontal terracotta panels by Agrob Buchtal, using specialized vertical T and L system rails.
The system rails feature pre-punched hooks and springs to provide a complete and secure panel attachment.
QV3.1 is most suitable for concrete and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> The vertical system rails are attached to QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.
> The fixed connections absorb both dead and wind loads. The sliding connections absorb the wind load and allow for the thermal movement.
> The cladding panels are directly hung on the system rails without the need for additional adjustment or fixing.

The QV3.2 system is designed to attach horizontal terracotta panels by Agrob Buchtal, using specialized Omega system rails.
The Omega rails feature pre-punched hooks and springs to provide a complete and secure panel attachment.
QV3.2 is suitable for stud walls where a horizontal support is required for the vertical rails.

The vertical Omega rails are attached to one of the following configurations of horizontal supports:

1. Continuous horizontal HAT / J / Z rails attached directly to the wall.
2. Continuous horizontal T rails fixed to the stud wall and L clips, at every vertical rail, fixed to the horizontal T rail.

The cladding panels are directly hung on the system rails without the need for additional adjustment or fixing.
The Omega rails can also be attached directly to concrete or masonry (CMU) substrates via fasteners or other custom configurations.

All options come with thermo-pads to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

The QV3.3 system is designed to attach vertical terracotta panels by Agrob Buchtal, using specialised horizontal Omega system rails and horizontal Omega-S rails.
QV3.3 can be used on stud wall, concrete, and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> The Omega-S rails support the dead load of the terracotta panels, while the Omega system rails absorb the wind load.
> Both Omega and Omega-S rails are attached to vertical T and L profiles.
> The vertical profiles are attached to QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.

The wall brackets come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

Q-CLOUD system is used for attachment of opaque glass panels in a rainscreen application.
The specialized vertical profiles are bonded to the glass panels in an off-site environment.
Q-CLOUD can be used on stud wall, concrete, and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> The hangers are secured to the special vertical profiles via fasteners. The hangers have built-in bolts allowing fine vertical adjustment of the panels.
> The glass panels are suspended with the hangers that are engaged into the horizontal system rails.
> The horizontal system rails are attached to the vertical T and L profiles, which are attached to the QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.

The wall brackets come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

The QV6 system is designed for hidden support of various cladding materials, using undercut anchor technology.
The system can be used on stud wall, concrete, and masonry (CMU) substrates.
QV6 is customisable to be used with many types of undercut anchors available on the market.

> The undercut anchors are placed in the back of the cladding panels and hangers are secured to the undercut anchors. The hangers have built-in bolts allowing fine vertical adjustment of the panels.
> The cladding panels are suspended with the hangers that are engaged into the horizontal system rails.
> The horizontal system rails are attached to the vertical T and L profiles, which are attached to the QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.

The QV7 system is a solution for mechanical attachment of terracotta panels using clips.
The system is designed to support terracotta panels with 25 mm [1”] minimum thickness, and it can be adapted for use with most terracotta manufacturers producing flat and 3D units.
QV7 can be used on stud wall, concrete, and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> The system can be configured for both horizontal and vertical orientation of the terracotta panels.
> The terracotta panels are attached to either vertical or horizontal rails, depending on the project specific configuration.

All options come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

The QV9.3 system is an efficient solution for mechanical attachment of formed metal panels using hangers.
The system requires formed metal panels to have “keyhole” cutouts that engage with the hangers.
QV9.3 is most suitable for concrete and masonry (CMU) substrates but can also be used on stud walls with the addition of horizontal profiles.

> The panels are suspended on the hangers and secured with fasteners on the top leg of the panel.
> The hangers are attached to vertical T profiles, which are attached to QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.

The wall brackets come with a thermo-pad to reduce thermal bridging and prevent galvanic corrosion.

The QV9.5 system incorporates an attachment system, as well as extruded aluminum panels, manufactured by Q-VENT.
The panels can be provided in a variety of shapes, sizes, and finishes and can be installed vertically or horizontally using a specialized clip system.
QV9.5 can be used on stud wall, concrete, and masonry (CMU) substrates.

> In the case of horizontal installation, the panels are installed on vertical profiles, which are attached to QVB wall brackets via a series of fixed and sliding connections.
> In the case of vertical installation, the panels are installed on horizontal rails.
