ABSTRACT:
The holding means serves for securing facade panels of stone, ceramic glass, metal sheet or the like, and has at least one screw element projecting transversely from the panel rear side and having a screw thread. To permit a simple accurate assembly as free from joint gaps as possible a support plate attachable by adhesion to the panel rear side is provided in the form of a lightweight component of expanded glass, expanded clay, polystyrene, polyurethane foam material, expanded slate, vermiculite, pressed glass fibres or the like, possibly with addition of binder. Said plate includes glass fabric layers which are preferably fixed to both outer sides and increase the flexural stiffness. Incorporated on one side into the support plate is a holding plate to which a screw element preferably in the form of a threaded bush and extending through the support plate is fixed. An additional mechanical securing which can be subjected to particularly high thermal and mechanical stresses can be provided in the form of a glass solder connection of a carrier plate fixedly incorporated into the support plate at the side facing the facade panel to the adjoining facade panel.
