Piece galvanizing allows thin-walled steel components (0.8-2
(0.8-2.5mm) for substructures in accordance with DIN 18516-1
can be produced. Wall brackets and support profiles remain distortion-free,
The thickness of the zinc coating exceeds the requirements of
DIN EN ISO 1461. Pull-throughs at the perforated edges of the wall brackets
and lateral bends increase the load-bearing capacity,
as well as increasing sheet thicknesses. Support profiles are also strengthened by
lateral bends also increase the load-bearing capacity.
U and hat support profiles are particularly strong. Experimental tests in the
climate chamber show the potential of perforated wall brackets,
The most favorable design is the bracket with three slotted holes.

mechanical tests have shown that galvanized components are a
structural, thermal and economical alternative to commercially available substructure systems.
