Patent ID: 8695308

Claim:
A method for mounting facade elements ( 12 , 12 b - c ) on a multi-storey building by a profile system comprising providing first ( 1 ) and second ( 14 ) types of vertical profiles, the first type of vertical profile ( 1 ) having a slot extending along a longitudinal axis of the profile, and an inner part ( 5 ) of the slot being designed to receive an edge ( 13 c ) of a first facade element ( 12 ) and an outer part ( 6 ) of the slot being designed to receive and support the second type of vertical profile ( 14 ) arranged to support the first facade element, and the second type of profile is provided with a groove ( 15 ) extending along a longitudinal axis of the profile and designed to receive and support an edge ( 13 ) of a second facade element ( 12 c ), wherein the method further comprises: a) mounting two vertical profiles ( 1 a - b ) of the first type at a second floor of the building so that the slots are facing each other, and above profiles ( 1 c - d ) of the first and second type previously mounted on a first floor, and so that the longitudinal axes of the profiles are aligned, b) transporting the first facade element ( 12 ) in a vertical direction guided by the grooves of the second type of profiles mounted on the first floor until it reaches the vertical profiles mounted on the second floor, c) entering the first facade element into the outer part of the slots of the vertical profiles mounted on the second floor, d) continuing transporting the first facade element in a vertical direction guided by the outer part of the slots of the vertical profiles mounted on the second floor until it reaches a mounting position, e) pushing the first facade element from the outer part of the slots to the inner part of the slots, f) attaching the first facade element to the building, and g) inserting vertical profiles of the second type into the outer part of the slots so that the grooves are facing each other.
