With their natural color and texture, they blend seamlessly into any landscape, while providing a safe and sturdy path for walking. Elevate your outdoor space with these beautiful and functional steps.

Guidelines for Sandstone Outdoor Steps in Stone Curtain Walls

1. Independent Pendant Connection
• Each piece of sandstone outdoor steps in the stone curtain wall must be designed, processed, and constructed with an independent pendant.
• The connection with the curtain wall keel should be reliable, ensuring each stone has its own independent force support point.
• Conjoined dry-hanging methods for stone connection are not allowed.
2. Exceptions for Conjoined Design
• If independent pendants cannot be used due to specific constraints, a conjoined design may be considered.
• When adopting a conjoined design, the independent pendant stone (secondary stone) and the main stone (stone with the independent pendant connection) must be securely connected using reliable mechanical methods such as:
• Bolt connection
• Pin connection
• Key connection
• Riveting
• Welding
• Hinge connection
• Flange connection
• Clamp connection
• Threaded connection
• Tight-fit connection
3. Avoidance of Adhesive as Primary Support
• The traditional method of stone-to-stone connection using glue and pins should not be the primary means of support.
• One of the stones must not rely solely on adhesive bonding as its main load-bearing mechanism.
4. Gluing for Aesthetic Purposes Only
• Stone slabs may be glued together during splicing for aesthetic and sealing purposes.
• However, this bonding should only serve as a temporary fix and not as a structural connection.
5. Use of Epoxy Resin Adhesive
• To ensure durability, weather resistance, and aging resistance of the stone bonding, epoxy resin adhesive must be used for dry-hanging sandstone outdoor steps.
6. Compliance in Design, Inspection & Construction
• The following processes must adhere to these guidelines:
• Review of construction drawings
• Processing drawings created by the design team
• Design supervision and quality inspection of drawings
• Procurement and acceptance of stone plates
• Quality inspection of sandstone outdoor steps
• Project department's acceptance of construction work
• Adherence to these standards during the entire construction process
