L-Profiles
Most standard façade subframe systems are typically designed using vertical rails in a T & L geometry.
For intermediate supports, the 60x40 standard L-profile provides the correct dimensions for most façade types, relating to surface area in contact with the panel,
L-profiles can also be used at panel joint locations where the 40mm dimension is enough to support the panels.
for non-standard or custom L-profiles please contact RJ facades technical department.
Depending on the system type and application additional horizontal profiles might be added to T and L geometry, on order to fulfil the project requirements.
For scenarios where the façade has an expressed joint, L-profiles can be powder coated and anodised.
RJ Facades standard soffit designs up to 400mm using L and T profiles to support most soffit materials

Typical bracket configuration uses the Fixed Point bracket at the highest position on the vertical rail to support the façade vertical dead loads. The Sliding Point bracket is used typically on all other positions on the vertical rail to absorb the project wind loading
The system benefits from using a standard helping hand system, which is interchangeable with other RJ Facades helping hand systems based on the project requirements.
RJ Facades offer one of the UK's largest range of Helping Hand brackets which have been designed to help achieve the the required U-Value while helping to support the facade system going back to the backing wall.
