… core-insulated double walls The ThermoPin® is a securing anchor made of glass fibre reinforced plastic (GRP), which connects the facing and load-bearing layer of core-insulated precast concrete elements such as sandwich walls and core-insulated double walls. It penetrates the insulation. ThermoPins to be installed horizontally absorb horizontally acting forces, ThermoPins to be installed diagonally absorb vertical forces, e.g. resulting from the dead load of the façade. Since it conducts practically no heat, material-related thermal bridges are meaningless with this securing anchor system.
