Spandrel and Parapet Windposts
Windposts are also available in shorter lengths to provide stability to walls, to parapets or below windows.
Designed as cantilevers, Parapet and Spandrel Windposts are manufactured with a base connection sufficiently strong to resist bending moment (see performance data sheet).
Parapet and Spandrel Windposts are available in U and L sections and a range of lengths from 800mm – 2000mm.
To specify a parapet windpost, see example product reference below:
L125704/1200/P
This code will specify a L section windpost with a section size of 125mm x 70mm x 4mm thick at 1200mm long.
To specify a propped cantilever windpost, see example product reference below:
L125704/3000/PC
This code will specify a L section windpost with a section size of 125mm x 70mm x 4mm thick at 3000mm long
To specify spandrel rails, see example product reference below:
L125704/3000/SR
This code will specify a L section spandrel rail with a section size of 125mm x 70mm x 4mm thick at 3000mm long
