LOAD-BEARING UNIT FOR FACING PANEL FASTENING Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC E04F13/12 

FIELD: building, particularly vented building facades and units adapted to secure facing facade panels.

SUBSTANCE: load-bearing unit comprises shoulder-like corbel, base and insert telescopically connected with inner corbel surface. Stiffening members made as at least two imprints are made at least on two mutually opposite corbel flange surfaces and insert surfaces mating them. The stiffening members extend in parallel to axes of above surfaces. The imprint profiles define curved lines. Cavities defined by imprints made on the insert surface may cooperate with corresponding outer surfaces of imprints formed in the flange and extending into flange profile cavity.

EFFECT: elimination of load-bearing unit strength reduction, reduced longitudinal and transversal load and torque applied to the units, namely prevention of load-bearing unit deflection and sagging under the action of static, dynamic loads, including alternating ones caused by wind, and vibration.
