Your service Our quality:

EJOT philosophy sets
standards
Are you absolutely sure what is behind the old rendering?

ETICS are often used in renovation. The major part of the
structural fabric is of bad quality or combined masonry was
used. The bearing capacity of the old render is reduced
through environmental stress.
The ejotherm anchor generation provides safety. Especially
the ejotherm STR U can be used in any substrate. As the
first 8 mm ETICS anchor, it obtained a European Technical
Approval for all building material categories. Despite shortest
anchorage depths, it reaches the highest characteristic loads.
With EJOT quality your service promise will not hang by
a thread
ETICS competency
I cannot afford a construction site to stagnate due to

installation problems, and even worse customer
complaints. Today, everything has to be fast and
smooth but without reduction of quality and
security. EJOT anchors are great to work with.
Especially the STR principle is simply ingenious.
100% setting control and homogeneous insulation
surfaces thus I can still relax after many years.

The EJOT STR principle
Your guarantee
Our STR principle
For long-lasting beautiful facades

With its STR principle, EJOT has developed a unique fastening system. Without any additional work, the anchor washers
are installed countersunk and covered with an insulation cap.
This creates a homogenous surface and an even rendering,
which helps to avoid anchor marks.
For all substrates
The ejotherm STR U is the first 8 mm ETICS anchor with
European approval for all building materials, including gas
concrete (use categories A - E). For fastenings on wooden
materials we provide ejotherm STR H. Both anchors are
installed with the same ejotherm STR tool.
Easy installation:
1 Quick drilling thanks to reduced drill depth
2 Put anchor with pre-mounted screw into the hole until
the plate bears on the surface
3 Screw with the STR tool: countersinking happens
automatically (no milling, no dust)
4 Insert the STR insulation cap ready!
For all insulation materials

Both ejotherm STR U and ejotherm STR H can be either
installed countersunk according to the STR principle or plain
with the surface with the STR plug. This way an adaptation to
all commonly used types of insulation is possible.
Quality and safety in XXXL
The EJOT STR princple is available for insulation of up to
400 mm the perfect fastening system for zero- and lowenergy houses.
16

anchor choice made easy
When fastening ETICS, insulation boards are usually attached

to the facade with adhesive and then fastened with anchors.
The bearing load of the system is carried onto the facade
via shearing forces. High-quality washer anchors, installed
through the insulation, guarantee additional contact pressure
through their stiff washers. This contact pressure supports the
permanent frictional bonding between adhesive and substructure. Due to a strong hold in the wall and the contact pressure
of the washer the clamping of the insulation board is ensured
(screw clamp effect).
ejotherm washer anchors with European Technical Approval
offer certified safety even under high wind loads. Through their
washers and the expansion element, they redirect the tensile
load into the bearing substructure.
The washer anchors of the ejotherm generation make things
easy for you:
Easy anchor choice for safe anchoring in any building material.
Together with a minimum anchor depth and maximum performance. Performance up, total cost down! For long-lasting,
energy-saving facades.

The washer diameter is enlarged through specially matched

additional washers. In this way the EJOT washer anchor is
perfectly fitted to the demands of different insulation materials. What additional washer is used in a specific case,
depends on the specifications of the ETIC system owner.
When combining our additional washers with ejotherm
STR U or ejotherm STR H for the installation flush with the
surface, the special STR closing plugs have to be mounted.
When using additional washers the STR principle cannot be
applied.

ejotherm anchors for rail fastenings
ejotherm anchors for

rail-fixed ETICS
A special kind of External Thermal Insulation Composite

Systems is the mechanical fixing of the insulation boards with
the help of holding rails. These systems are preferably used on
old facades with large tolerances (unevenness of the old
render) or significantly damaged old render (lose parts,
partially missing old render).
Holding rails of plastic or aluminium are directly fastened on
the substrate with special collar head anchors. Our spacers
EJOT AS balance tolerances and bridge missing parts.
Simply clip the chosen thickness onto the anchor between
wall and holding rail. System-specific insulation boards are
put into the profiles of holding rails through incorporated
grooves.
For additional anchoring of the insulation in the centre of the
board, we recommend our cap anchor ejotherm STR U (see
page 18).

EJOT anchors for clinker systems
EJOT anchors for prefabricated

ETICS with clinker
External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems open a

multitude of optical design scopes to significantly improve
energy efficiency and outlook at the same time when renovating a facade. Besides different renderings and colourings,
ceramic claddings have become increasingly popular.
Due to the significantly higher mass per unit area, clinker-built
ETICS are generally anchored.
ETICS with facing clinker that is already glued on the insulation board usually allow for a purely mechanical fastening with
special countersunk anchors directly to the facade. The holes
are almost invisible at the joint pattern.
If the ceramic cladding is glued on after the anchoring, either completely or in parts, it is recommended to
use ejotherm plate anchors. When using the cap anchor
ejotherm STR U with cap, an advantageous decoupling of
the facing clinker from the anchor plates is achieved.

Renovation of two-shell masonry
When renovating old building structures and before
installing ETIC systems legislation demands an inspection
of the structural safety of the wall. The structural safety
has to be restored where necessary. Double-leaf walls
with outer leafs, where the connection of the two leafs
is often compromised due to corrosion of the cavity wall
ties, can be restored to structural safety with the EJOT
VSD-8U V.
The zinc-plated steel screw of the EJOT VSD-8U V

with building authorities approval, enables a renovation
of the outer leaf of outdoor buildings, in an industrial
atmosphere and close to the coast. After renovation of
the outer leaf, an additional facade system with thermal
insulation (e.g. ETICS) with a thickness of at least 60 mm
has to be applied. Ventilation behind the outer leaf has to
be prevented also.

Weather shells of prefabricated building elements (precast
concrete slab-type construction) were installed with steel
tie rods in front of the load-bearing wall. Due to corrosion
influences the stability can be endangered. Thus before
renovating the facade with ETICS, the stability needs to be
rebuilt. EJOT offers two convincing systems.

EJOT anchor basics

Building laws background
To harmonise the EU single market the EU Commission
issued a directive on construction parts (89/106 EWG).
It determines which building parts need to comply with the
following essential requirements regarding their intended
use:
l mechanical resistance and stability
l safety in case of fire
l hygiene, health and the environment
l safety in use
are to be regarded. This way, member states may explicitly incorporate specific national or regional requirements
(e.g. different wind loads, safety factors, country-specific
construction methods).
In terms of the EC guideline on construction parts, external
thermal insulation composite systems are kits. The producer whose system receives an ETA is responsible for carefully choosing the single constituents. In accordance with
ETAG 004, components of an ETICS are:
l protection against noise

l energy economy and heat retention
l adhesive
l insulation product
Working groups of the European Organisation for Technical

Approvals (EOTA) have elaborated criteria on how to precisely prove these requirements are fulfilled for ETICS. These
criteria and corresponding testing methods are stated in the
European Technical Approval Guidelines (ETAG). For ETICS
the following guidelines are relevant:
l ETAG 004: external thermal insulation composite systems
with rendering
l ETAG 014: plastic anchors for fixing external thermal
insulation composite systems with rendering
l CUAP according to the relevant ETAG
These guidelines are mandatory for all member states of the
European Union (EU) as for well as those states of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), that have signed the
agreements of the European Economic Area (EEA), Iceland,
Liechtenstein and Norway. The guidelines form the base for
awarding European Technical Approval (ETA) for individual
products. Construction parts with ETA and certificate of
conformity may carry the CE mark, which enables the free
movement of goods within the member states of the EEA.
This way a uniform appraisal of construction parts and their
fundamental technical specifications is ensured. Therefore
each member state can assume without further testing that
the construction part is generally suitable for the intended
use if planning and construction are done correctly. Nevertheless, the CE mark may not be regarded as a quality mark.
l rendering system (including mesh reinforcement)

l mechanical fixing devices (anchors, holding rails)
l ancillary materials (e.g. corner strips and base profile)
The approval lapses if components of various system

owners are used. This constitutes a breach of the building
code that leads to the loss of the warrantee by the owner
and may have legal consequences.
EJOT advises: Buy all system components
exclusively from the provider of an approved system!
An ETICS itself does not contribute to the structural stability of a building. Especially in renovation the stability of the
wall construction has to be checked if an ETICS shall be
installed. Since it has to carry the dead load of the insulation
system after renovation, the stability might have to be rebuilt
before attaching an ETICS. In particular this effects wall
constructions of multiple shells (buildings with a prewall shell
and precast concrete slab-type constructions).
The guidelines assume a prospective useful life of ETICS

of at least 25 years. In accordance with current practical
experiences, the actual useful life may be much longer without having to fear fundamental quality impairment. In spite
of that, a guarantee towards the system owner or single
components cannot be inferred.
When processing the products, national requirements

EJOT anchor basics

Good reasons for anchoring an ETICS
Safe installation on old facades
ETICS are often used for energy efficient refurbishment of
old buildings. Do you know how much load the old render
can actually carry? For decades it was exposed to weather
and emissions, soot, dirt and old paint reduce the bearing
strength of the glue. Or single components are not compatible with the composition of the glue (saponifying). After
installing a new ETICS building physics can change the
bearing capacity of the old render (failure of old render) even
after years. Regarding new buildings residues of release oil on
concrete may cause difficulties. Cleaning a facade is complex
and costly. Contaminated waste water has to be collected
and professionally disposed. Furthermore the old render is
imbued when thoroughly cleaned.
Highest structural stability

When insulation boards are solely glued, the deadweight of
an ETICS is passed onto the wall through shearing forces.
The used glue is therefore the only connection between wall
and insulation. Thanks to their specifically solid anchor plate
and high characteristic loads, ejotherm plate anchors give
your facade safe support. Through contact pressure the frictional bond between facade surface and adhesive as well as
between adhesive and insulation board is steadily increased.
This results in a higher stability of the whole system. Moreover anchors with steel screw or steel nail offer higher safety
reserves.
However if insulation boards are additionally anchored, usually no special treatment of the facade is necessary. Only
loose parts of the render, efflorescence and paint flaking off
need to be roughly removed. Possible holes are filled. Eventually anchors provide safe support

Impact of anchoring:

Advantages:

41
EJOT anchor basics

Good reasons for anchoring an ETICS
Highest security against hygrothermal impacts
Hygrothermal influences like temperature changes and shrinkage lead to fluctuating material expansion that effect the
rigid adhesive joints. If solely glued there is a latent danger
of the insulation boards to bulge, due to lacking expansion
possibility at the joints. Additional anchoring in the area of the
joints as well as in the centre of the board results in a mechanical fixing of the system onto the wall and therefore reduces
the risk of cracking plaster.
warm outside
Highest security against wind loads

Wind loads affect in the opposite direction of the deadweight.
They provide for a vertical tensile load onto the adhesive joint.
Special importance is attached to the intersection of wall/
adhesive (new buildings) and of old render/adhesive (renovation) respectively as well as of adhesive/insulation.
Particularly high wind loads exist
l at higher buildings
l at building edges
l at free-standing buildings
l in exposed areas
l in coastal areas
l in stormy weather
cold outside
Therefore:
Climate scientists assume that the risk of heavy storms

and grave damages will increase worldwide. EJOT anchors
provide additional security!

Ways to perfect anchoring
Judginig the substructure
The expansion zone of an anchor has to perfectly fit the wall
substrate found at the building. It is the only way the anchor
can optimally fulfil its function within the ETIC system. This is
why carefully assessing the substructure is highly important.
Determining the anchor type for the substrate

After the substructure is determined, the proper anchor can
be assigned with its approval since anchors with ETA are
tested and approved for specific use categories. The following cases are possible:
ETAG 014 (guideline for anchors in external thermal insulation composite systems) distinguishes standard substrates
according to so-called use categories in order to facilitate the
assignment of the matching anchor.
Case 1: The anchor is approved for the determined building

material category. The identified substrate is mentioned in the
ETA of the anchor.
The anchor may be used on the building without further
testing. The loads given in the approval can be used offhand
for calculating the necessary number of anchors. Where
required, national safety factors need to be observed.
Substrates
Use category A:
Normal weight
concrete
Use category B:
Solid masonry
Example:
Solid lime sandstone was determined as wall substrate.
This corresponds to use category B. The anchor has an
ETA for use categories A and B. For solid lime sandstones,
the ETA mentions a characteristic load of 1.2 kN. National rules require a security value of 3 for use category B.
Therefore the anchor can be calculated having a design load of
1.2 kN : 3 = 0.4 kN without further testing on the building.
Case 2: The anchor has no approval for the determined building material category.
Use category C:
Hollow or perforated
masonry
Use category D:
Lightweight aggregate
concrete
If the determined substrate at the building does not belong to

a use category for which the anchor is approved according to
the ETA, the anchor may not be used on this object. In this
case, the usability of the anchor cannot be proven through
pull-out tests.
Example:
Vertical coring bricks were determined as wall substrate. This
corresponds to use category C. An anchor only approved for
use categories A and B may not be used.
Use category E:
Autoclaved aerated
concrete
43
EJOT anchor basics

Case 3: The anchor is generally approved for the determined
building material category, but the identified substrate is not
explicitly named in the ETA of the anchor.
If in principal several anchor types are applicable in the found

building material, further assessment criteria can be employed.
The anchor may be used if its usability is proven through tests

on the building. The object specific characteristic loads are
determined through pull-out tests as described in the ETA.
When deducting the design load national safety factors need
to be incorporated.
Additonal plates depending on the application
Example:
Perforated lime sandstone was determined as wall substrate.
This corresponds to use category C. The anchor has an ETA
for use categories A, B, C and D. Nevertheless, perforated
lime sandstone is not explicitly named in the ETA. Pull-out
tests with this anchor on the object result in a characteristic
load of 1.5 kN. National rules require a security value of 3
for use category C. The anchor can be calculated having an
design load of 1.5 kN : 3 = 0.5 kN.

Please note possible differences between effective and nominal anchorage
Case 4: The anchor is generally approved for the determined

building material category. The identified substrate is already
mentioned in the ETA of the anchor, but the gross density or
the compression strength of the stone differs from the declaration of the approval.
In principle this case corresponds to case 3. The usability for
the substructure can be proven through tests on the building.
Special case: Weather shells of concrete (precast concrete
slab-type construction) are assigned to use category A. With
any ejotherm anchor the loads may be calculated employing
tests on the building.
EJOT advises:
l The ejotherm STR U (as plate anchor) as well as the
ejotherm SDK U (for fastening rails) have a European
Technical Approval for all building material classes. Many
substrates are already tested for the approval and named
in the ETA. Therefore usually no additional tests are
necessary.
l Should tests on the building site be needed, you have
EJOTs service at your hand.
depth when comparing with other products.
Depending on the application, our ETICS anchors are combined with additional plates. The additional plates are very
simple to use and are available in various diameters. They are
put on the plate anchor like a washer. The further installation
is processed as usual. In which case a specific additional
plate is applied, depends on the used insulation and the
system configuration. Crucial are the specifications of the
system owner.
Note: Additional plates are system components of the
anchor. They are tested accordingly and described in the
approval of the anchor. Therefore plate anchors may only be
combined with the matching additional plates by the same
manufacturer.
Further criteria for choosing the perfect anchor

Determining the necessary anchor length
The correct determination of the anchor length is an important prerequisite to obtain the highest fastening safety possible. The object specific preconditions always have to be
taken into account, but determining the necessary anchorage
length itself is easy:

Determining the necessary number of anchors

The necessary number of anchors has to be determined
for each building individually. According to new European
and national wind load standards several factors have to be
incorporated. Amongst the most essential influences are the
building construction (height, ground plan, profile) as well
as the surroundings of the building. Exposed conditions in
coastal areas, on mountains or outside closed housing areas
normally lead to significantly higher wind loads. Details and
actual maps with zones of different wind loads are part of
national standards.
ttol
h ef = h nom
hD
From the system point of view the anchor usage is increased

by the bearing load of the used insulation board as well as
the characteristic load and the plate stiffness of the employed anchors. Therefore the working guidelines of the ETICS
provider have to be observed.
Generally speaking: the higher the building and the more
exposed its surrounding area, the higher the necessary
number of anchors. On the other hand high-quality anchors
often mean a lower usage of anchors per square metre and
thus save material cost and working hours.
h1 = drill hole depth

hef = effective anchorage depth
hnom = nominal anchorage depth (>_ hef)
ttol = tolerance compensation
hD = insulation thickness
Notes:
If no other specifications are given, the nominal anchorage
depth hnom is equal to the effective anchorage depth hef.
The tolerance compensation consists of:
thickness of old render (if existent, the old render often is
approx. 20 mm thick)
+ thickness of the adhesive joint after pressing the insulation boards against the wall (as a rule approx. 10 mm)*
+ additional compensation of facade unevenness*
= tolerance compensation ttol
Correct processing is crucial for the function of the

anchor
The position of the anchor results from the anchor scheme
of the ETIC system owner. Common anchorage alignments
are for example:
l alignment of anchors for insulation boards with formats
1000 x 500 mm, e.g. rigid foam plates of polystyrene and

800 x 625 mm, e.g. mineral wool plates (table 1)
l alignment of anchors for insulation boards with formats
1000 x 200 mm, e.g. lamella plates of mineral wool
(table 2)
Anchors should always be installed in the area of the adhesive, so that they can support the adhesive joint by means of
contact pressure in the best way possible.
If during the energetic renovation there is a larger facade

unevenness to compensate, it may be necessary to employ
different anchor lengths.
* Facade tolerances are eventually compensated through the actual total thickness
of the adhesive mortar.

EJOT anchor basics

EJOT advises:
When drilling in rotary mode (without percussion), use our
special drills to achieve a clean hole in a short time.
Drills are wearing parts. Their durability depends on the
solidness of the substructure: The harder it is, the higher the
abrasion. To achieve an efficient work progress, drills should
be exchanged in time.
When drilling, please exactly follow the specified installation
values of the individual anchor type (especially the minimum
drilling hole depth). The exact geometry of the drill hole is
important for the bearing capacity of the anchor. Therefore
always drill on a 90 degree angle and never change direction
while drilling. This is especially important with regards to soft
substrates. Before inserting the anchor clean the hole from
drill dust by pulling out the drill several times.
With regards to plate anchors the anchor plates are either
installed countersunk into the insulation board following the
EJOT STR principle or plain with the surface on the insulation
exterior (always in combination with additional plates). When
installing plain with the surface it should be regarded that
the upper side of the anchor plate forms one level with the
upper side of the insulation. When the plate moves in too
deeply, the cavity needs to be levelled out before installing
the mesh. This leads to heightened plaster in the area of the
plate and bears the risk of cracking plaster. When the plate
does not enter deep enough, a thicker mesh layer has to be
installed over the whole facade in order to achieve the minimum render thickness over the anchor plates. This results in
higher costs.
EJOT advises: When using the EJOT STR principle, the
anchor plate is quickly and cleanly countersunk into the
insulation and covered with an STR cap. This way a smooth
and homogenous insulation surface as basis for an even
rendering is established. No additional work for levelling out
the anchor plates is needed. Moreover, the anchor plates are
detached from the rendering.
