Box Sections are engineered to support large cavities and where there is a need to span between floors. The profiles are also used if building substrate is variable or where a subframe needs to carry heavy weight facade materials - including natural stones with a typical thickness greater than 40mm and glass. All sections are 50mm wide face, the depth varies from 25mm to 180mm and they are designed for U shaped brackets.
