The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Substrate preparation An external wall insulation system can only be applied if the substrate satisfies certain criteria and is tested for its load-bearing capacity. In the case of soiled, absorbent or uneven substrates, pre-treatment is always necessary; in the case of non-load bearing substrates, the system must be applied with a mechanical fixing system. Primers are always applied diluted to suit the substrate. Primers must not remain glossy after drying. After successful substrate preparation, the next important step is to choose the right adhesive for the selected system. Depending on the system and the substrate, additional dowelling of the insulation boards may be required. During mechanical fixing (rail fixing or fixing with Sto-Rotofix plus), substrate preparation can be eliminated, although it is essential in this case to ensure that the masonry is dry. 1) Substrate table Substrate Substrate preparation Primer Smooth fair-faced concrete/smooth ceramic surface Priming StoPrep Contact + 20% cement Organic and silicone resin-bound renders (load-bearing) Cleaning – Efflorescence Sweep dry, brush – Moisture-penetrated Eliminate the cause, wait until dry1) – Mosses, algae, fungi Clean, leave to dry.

The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Substrate preparation/substrate table | 9 Fixing systems Insulation board fixing (EPS) Bonding insulant/ bonding and dowelling Bonding Insulant Sto-Polystyrene Rigid Foam Boards are delivered cut to precise angles, with straight edges and dimensionally accurate and are available with straight or overlapped edges and as a groove and tongue construction set. Load-bearing substrate, suitable for bonding, with an unevenness of up to 1 cm/m In the case of load-bearing substrates suitable for bonding (≥ 0.08 N/mm2), it is sufficient to bond the insulation board with a minimum bonded proportion of 40%. Important Bonding and dowelling Substrate suitable for bonding with insufficient load-bearing capacity and/or an unevenness of up to 2 cm/m In the case of substrates with an insufficient load-bearing capacity (< 0.08 N/ mm2), additional dowelling with approved dowels is required. Mechanical fixing M system (centre image): Substrate suitable for bonding with an unevenness of up to 3 cm/m and/or substrates not suitable for bonding Sto-Rotofix plus: Substrate suitable for bonding with an unevenness of up to 7 cm/m and/or substrates not suitable for bonding In the case of substrates with an unevenness between 2 and 7 cm/m, a mechanical fixing system must be used. Alternatively, the substrate may be replaced or steined or the render and/or paint coat may be removed by mechanical means. The mechanical fixing systems are also used for substrates with an insufficient load-bearing capacity (< 0.08 N/mm²). 10 | Fixing systems/insulation board fixing (EPS) Protect the polystyrene rigid foam boards against the action of heat, UV radiation, moisture and mechanical damage (do not use moist, wet or damaged insulation boards). Due to the silver/grey colour shade of the insulation board (thermal conductivity group 032), measures for preventing thermal heating should be considered. The insulant should therefore be protected against direct solar radiation, e.g. by means of scaffold netting, during and after application. Further coatings should be applied within a few days. Bonding the insulation boards Excessive drying times of the bonding mortar on the insulation board or wall lead to the formation of a skin on the bonding mortar which can lead to adhesion problems. Immediately after application of the bonding mortar (after 10 minutes at the latest), press the insulation boards onto the adhesive, have them float into place and press-fit them. Depending on the weathering, this time interval may be shorter. Install the insulation boards from bottom to top, in an offset pattern and so that they abut, leaving no open joints between the insulation boards. Unavoidable joints must be sealed with a suitable filler foam. Use insulant strips to seal joints with a width greater than 5 mm. There must be no base coat mortar in joints or between board joints. Damaged insulation boards must not be installed. Scatter offcuts (minimum width 15 cm) across the surface (not at the outer edges of a building or building apertures). Seal the gap between the starter track and the wall using a suitable filler foam. Important Sto-Starter Profiles After establishing the height of the plinth, the Sto-Starter Profiles are mounted torsion-free, vertically and flush (see application details). Seal the gap between the Sto-Starter Profiles and the wall using a suitable filler foam. The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Insulation board fixing (EPS) Bonding Tip 2b Preventing thermal bridges: Thoroughly remove bonding mortar between board joints or joints immediately. 1a Full-surface bonding In the case of smooth substrates, apply the bonding mortar to the entire surface of the insulation board and tooth with a toothed trowel (15 x 15 mm). When doing so, do not hold the toothed trowel too flat. Use an emery board for board fixation. 2a 3b After pressing the board onto the adhesive, the bonded proportion must be at least 40% on both the substrate and the insulation board. 1c Machine application of bonding mortar to the insulation board In the case of even and uneven substrates up to 1 cm/m, apply an all-round line of adhesive with an enclosed W or M. 3a After pressing the board onto the bonding mortar, it is important to ensure that the board adheres evenly to the substrate. 2c 1b Spot/edge bonding In the case of uneven substrates up to 1 cm/m, apply a line of adhesive all around the edge of the boarding and 6 adhesive fixing dabs on the surface. 3c The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. After pressing the board onto the adhesive, the bonded proportion must be at least 40% on both the substrate and the insulation board. Insulation board fixing (EPS) | 11 Insulation board fixing (EPS) Additional dowelling Bonding 1d Machine application of bonding mortar to the wall In the case of smooth substrates, apply an adhesive bead in sinuous lines with a max. spacing of 10 cm to the wall. Substrate: In the case of substrates with an insufficient load-bearing capacity, the insulation boards must be dowelled as well as bonded. Please note: Only use dowels with the appropriate approval! Depending on wind loads, building height, location, etc., additional dowelling may also be necessary for load-bearing substrates. The relevant European and/or national specifications must be observed. Anchorage depth: The dowel must be anchored in the load-bearing substrate at the depth required by the relevant dowel approval. Tiles and old render are not classed as suitable anchorage substrates. 2d Pull-out tests: In the case of undefined substrates, the pull-out strength must be determined by taking measurements on the object. 3d After pressing the board onto the adhesive, the bonded proportion must be at least 60% on both the substrate and the insulation board. Dowel specifications: The dowel length depends on the existing wall structure and the insulant thickness. The number of dowels depends on the height and location (surface, edge). Dowelling is usually located beneath the reinforcing coat or the reinforcing mesh. Ensure an even dowelling pattern.

Press the boards firmly onto the wall. Remove any excess adhesive in order to prevent thermal bridges. In the case of bonding with Sto-Turbofix, the laid insulation boards must again be pressed onto the wall and re-adjusted after max. 10 minutes using a long spirit level. wall construction cap dowel Product tip adhesive Sto-Turbofix Bonding with a PU foam for polystyrene rigid foam boards not only saves time. It also simplifies construction site logistics considerably. This is because a 10.4 kg bottle of Sto-Turbofix is equivalent to 14 sacks of bonding mortar. Further information can be found in the Sto-Turbofix application guideline. 12 | Insulation board fixing (EPS) insulation board reinforced base coat Apply priming paint coat if necessary.

When doing so, observe the corresponding information in the Technical Data Sheet and the approvals. Additional dowelling Version II: Sto-Ecotwist 1 Note: Prior to this, the insulation boards must be bonded as described on page 11 onwards. Please adhere to the specified drying times. Drill the required drill holes into the wall with a spacing of at least 10 cm from the edge of the insulation board. When doing so, observe the corresponding information in the Technical Data Sheet and the approvals. Note: Prior to this, the insulation boards must be bonded as described on page 11 onwards. Please adhere to the specified drying times. 2 Insert the dowel into the drill hole until the dowel plate is flush with the insulation board. 2 Adjust the stop on the setting tool in accordance with the insulant thickness. 3 Screw in the dowel screw using a suitable screwdriver and corresponding installation tool. End the setting procedure as soon as the stop washer touches the surface of the insulant. There is no unpleasant milling dust as the insulation material is compressed. 3 Insert the dowel. 4 Insert the Sto-Thermo Dowel Cap EPS into the dowel plate recess. 4 Press the dowel gently against the insulant using the setting tool. Screw in the dowel by applying even pressure until the stop is flush with the surface of the insulant. 5 Grind until even using an emery board. This results in a closed, level insulation layer that prevents the appearance of dowel markings on the facade. 5 Seal the small hole in the surface of the insulant using the Sto-Ecotwist VE closing element or the Sto-Pistol Foam SE. Then create a smooth surface using a cutting knife and an emery board. 14 | Insulation board fixing (EPS) The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed.

Note Due to thermal bridges, we only recommend this dowelling version if versions I, II or III cannot be used. The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Insulation board fixing (EPS) | 15 Insulation board fixing (EPS) Two-layer installation Tip If mechanical fixing is required (by a standard), shorter and therefore cheaper dowels can be used for twolayer bonding. This eliminates local thermal bridges and the risk of marks being left by the dowels. 1 Full-surface bonding of the second insulation layer. 2 It is generally recommended that you force-fit the corner toothing using a suitable installation adhesive (e.g. Sto-Turbofix). 3 Cut off any excess adhesive. In the case of the insulant thicknesses (> 20 cm) used in low-energy construction and passive houses, for example, two-layer installation of the insulation boards is recommended. The second layer of insulant is to be applied sufficiently offset against the first layer both vertically and in terms of the joints (no continuous joints). x d y d = insulant thickness x ≥ d, but at least 10 cm y ≥ d, ideally: half the board height, but at least 10 cm The installation of two-layer insulation boards allows details to be produced more easily and free of thermal bridges (e.g. in the case of window connections). Important When installing the second insulation layer, the floating-buttering method is recommended due to the low absorption capacity of the substrate (EPS). 16 | Insulation board fixing (EPS) Note: These construction planning suggestions are only very general in nature and in no way represent detailed or binding instructions.

Compliance with the actual technical specifications contained in the Technical Data Sheets and system approvals is mandatory. Notes • In the case of substrates suitable for bonding with an insufficient load-bearing capacity, the insulation can be applied using a rail system. This is particularly useful if substrate preparation is especially complex (e.g. if the old render has to be knocked off). • With StoTherm Classic® and StoTherm Vario, the Sto-Polystyrene Rigid Foam Boards, M system type, must be used. Additionally, the PVC tracks must be used for fixing. • With StoTherm Mineral, the Sto-Mineral Fibre Board 040, M system type, must be used. Additionally, the aluminium tracks must be used for fixing. 1 Fix the Sto-Starter Track with suitable dowels. Install the dowels with a max. spacing of 30 cm. Dowels meeting the European Technical Approval or national application guidelines and matching the respective wall structure must be used. Compensate for any unevenness using packing shims. 6 After installing a row of boards, press the intermediate track firmly into the top groove and insert dowels. Compensate for any unevenness using packing shims. Then continue to install the insulation boards row by row as described in Step 2 onwards. It is important to ensure that there is a sufficient offset between the board joints. 2 Apply adhering dots to the insulation boards. After applying pressure to the wall, the bonded proportion must be at least 20% on both the insulation board and on the substrate. 7 When cutting to size, a groove for the intermediate or connecting track is then cut in using the grooving tool. 18 | Insulation board fixing Note: These construction planning suggestions are only very general in nature and in no way represent detailed or binding instructions.

All specifications and assumptions must be adjusted or agreed in the light of local conditions. Compliance with the actual technical specifications contained in the Technical Data Sheets and system approvals is mandatory. Notes • Substrates not suitable for bonding can be mechanically insulated using Sto-Rotofix plus. This is particularly useful if substrate preparation is especially complex (e.g. if the old render has to be knocked off). • With StoTherm Classic® and StoTherm Vario, the Sto-Polystyrene Rigid Foam Boards, groove and tongue construction type, must be used. • With StoTherm Mineral, the Sto-Mineral Fibre Board 040 without groove and tongue must be used. • For further information on fixing with Sto-Rotofix plus, we recommend the Sto-Rotofix plus application guideline. Info 12 cm 12 cm When inserting the dowels, observe the minimum edge distance of 12 cm.

Insulation board fixing | 19 Insulation board fixing Mechanical fixing with Sto-Rotofix plus 1 Using the driving tool, drill a hole approx. 10 cm in depth. Pull out the screwdriver in slightly circular movements. 5 Screw in the dowel screw using the driving tool until it sits firmly in place. When tightening the screw, the Sto-Rotofix plus must be reset. 2 Screw in the screw coil using the driving tool. The screw coil must always be screwed in at a 90° angle to the insulation board. 6 Using the setting and adjustment tool, align the insulation board precisely. Spacing from the wall: Sto-Rotofix plus green (E1/B3) = max. 3 cm Sto-Rotofix plus black (E100/B300) = 3 to 7 cm 3 Use a stop drill bit to drill a hole right through the screw coil. With a rotating drill, ventilate the drill hole several times. Do not use the hammer action on a drill when drilling holes in perforated bricks. 7 Screw the expanded polystyrene rod into the drill hole and cut off flush with a sharp blade. Alternatively, the drill hole can be filled with foam insulation. In case of mineral fibre boards, seal the drill hole using mineral fibre remnants. 4 Use the setting and adjustment tool to press the dowel with the pre-assembled screw through the screw coil until the tool makes contact with the screw coil (checking the setting depth). 8 Grind the surface until it is even. Notes • EPS insulation boards must always be fixed with the Sto-Rotofix plus with the tongue facing upwards and in the direction of laying. • No boards shorter than 50 cm may be used at building corners. • Window lintel boards must have a minimum width and a minimum height of 30 cm. 20 | Insulation board fixing The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Base coat Preliminary works before base coat application in the case of EPS insulation boards Reinforcement of reveals Note Notes Prior to reinforcement, it is important to check carefully whether the insulation boards are tight-butted and honed even. A smooth insulant surface free of open joints prevents, amongst other things, cracks as well as joint marks on the top coat. • Due to the extraordinary elasticity of the StoLevell Classic base coat used with StoTherm Classic®, diagonal reinforcement is not required. The lightness value of the top coat, however, must be ≥ 20%. • The window or door connection, which is resistant to driving rain, must be produced using Sto-Seal Beads and/or Sto-Joint Waterproofing Tape. When using Sto-Seal Beads, the mesh of the seal beads must first be embedded at the internal reveal sides in the base coat. See the “Window connection” section on page 37 onwards. 1 Unavoidable joints between the insulation boards must be sealed with Sto-Pistol Foam SE. After the filler foam has dried, smoothly cut off protruding foam. Use insulant strips to seal joints with a width greater than 5 mm. 1 At the corners of window and door openings, diagonal reinforcement must be installed and embedded in the base coat before the base coat is applied. The dimensions are approx. 20 x 40 cm. The longitudinal edge must be set precisely to the corner point of the opening. Note: Under the conditions listed above, diagonal reinforcement is not required with the StoTherm Classic® system. Product tip 2 The internal reveal corners are reinforced with Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh. The mesh flanges must be at least 10 cm long. 3 Produce the external reveal corners using the Sto-Mesh Angle Bead Standard. Cut the mesh angle bead to size as appropriate, position it and embed it full-surface into the base coat. The mesh angle bead must overlap the internal corners of the mesh by at least 10 cm. 4 Embed the Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh into the base coat across the entire wall (overlapping the opening). Sto-Filler Foam Pistol Profi I With the Sto-Filler Foam Pistol Profi I, the special taper allows the application of reducing needles that enable cavities or cracks as small as < 1 mm to be filled. 2 Grind the insulation boards until smooth. The sanding dust must be removed from the facade. The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Base coat | 21 Base coat Reinforcement Reinforcement of reveals 5 Cut off the mesh at an angle of 45° along the reveal edge. When cutting to size, the corners in particular must be clean and precise. Important: Before applying the base coat, check all edges for mesh projections and cut them off if necessary. 6 Notes • The specified drying times after bonding the insulation boards must be observed. • Sufficient weather protection must be provided during the application and drying time of the base coat. Work the mesh into the base coat again around the area of the cutting edges. 1 Apply the base coat using the square trowel or by machine at a width of 110 to 120 cm across the entire surface. Product tip 2 Embed the mesh into the still moist base coat. The mesh strips must overlap by 10 cm. Then smooth the base coat using a wide trowel. Sto-Lintel Corner Mesh Angle The use of the Sto-Lintel Corner Mesh Angle for internal corner and reveal formation lowers labour costs as internal reveal corners do not need to be reinforced. Product tip Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh The Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh is flexible and easy to apply. The mesh format, with a width of 1.10 m (in the case of horizontal mesh embedding), covers exactly one scaffolding platform with two mesh strips. Alternative: Sto-Shield Mesh AES for protection against electro-smog. Tip Silo and machinery equipment Various system components can be delivered in the silo. A more efficient application can be achieved by using silo and machinery equipment. 22 | Base coat The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Top coat Finishing render Finishing render Render textures Notes • If a rilled render texture is not desired, the intermediate coating can be omitted when using StoTherm Classic®. • Sufficient weather protection must be provided during the application and drying time of the intermediate coating and/or finishing render. • The finishing renders can be tinted in up to 800 colour shades of the StoColor System. Stippled render texture (K) A stippled render is applied based on the grain size and textured with a suitable tool. 1 After the base coat has dried through, apply the pigmented priming paint coat (Sto-Primer or StoPrep Miral) to the entire surface of the reinforcement using a roller. Rilled render texture (R) Rilled renders can be textured in different ways following application (horizontal, vertical and round). 2 After the intermediate coating/base coat has dried through, the finishing render is applied wet in wet. The surfaces must be seamlessly coated. Free-style textured render (MP) Fine-grained renders are applied and textured using a paint brush, spatula, mason’s trowel, sponge, etc.. Product tip Note StoLotusan® K/MP Finishing render with Lotus-Effect® Technology; dirt runs off with the rain. Lightness value In the case of external wall insulation systems, there are limit values for the lightness value of the top coat. The following limit values apply: •StoTherm Classic®: ≥ 15% •StoTherm Vario: ≥ 20% •StoTherm Mineral: ≥ 20% The lightness value is based on the percentaged quantity of light reflected by a surface (100% = white, 0% = black). The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Top coat | 23 Top coat StoDeco Profiles StoDeco Rustications 1 StoDeco Profiles are easy to cut to size using the StoDeco Profile Hacksaw. Remove dust from the full surfaces of all cutting edges using a hand brush (and compressed air, if available). 2 Comb the StoDeco Coll onto the substrate and profile with the toothed trowel (6 x 6 mm) using the floating-buttering method. Adjust the toothing based on the unevenness of the substrate. The profile joints must also be bonded together across the full surface as described. The adhesive seam should be approx. 3 mm thick. Hold in place with lintel nails during initial drying. Remove any excess adhesive after initial drying. 3 Using a round jointer, form the material oozing out from below into a fillet. This prevents water from penetrating behind the profile. 1 Bonding Comb the StoDeco Coll onto the substrate and rustications using the floating-buttering method. Press the rustications onto the wall across the entire surface. Full-surface bonding is achieved by moving the rustications gently back and forth. Tip Create the butt joint through a broken edge using a V bevel or all-around edge formation, i.e. break the edges by means of light sanding. 2 After through-drying, remove any remaining adhesive from the butt joints. 3 Depending on the desired surface texture, prime with Sto-Primer (rough) or StoColor Maxicryl (smooth). The intermediate coating and top coats are applied with StoColor Maxicryl. The elements to be butted must be chamfered on-site. 4 Dowel window sills and larger profiles in accordance with the current system specifications. Fix the profile with an additional dowel approx. 20 cm from the end of the profile. The dowel must be recessed approx. 20 mm in the profile. Fit a foam cap to the dowel head, then fill and smooth the dowel punch hole with StoDeco Coll. Alternative: Fit a 5 mm thick StoDeco Cap. Grind until smooth. 5 In order to achieve a surface texture similar to sandstone, StoDeco Profiles are pre-coated with Sto-Primer and then twice top coated with StoColor Maxicryl. A smooth surface can be achieved with three coats of StoColor Maxicryl without primer. 24 | Top coat Note For detailed information on applying StoDeco Profiles and StoDeco Rustications, we recommend the StoDeco application guideline. The detailed technical specifications and information on the products contained in the Technical Data Sheets and approvals must be observed. Top coat StoSilt Glazed Brick Slips 1 When using StoSilt Glazed Brick Slips, always dowel through the reinforcing mesh. Fill and smooth the facade dowel before installing the glazed brick slips, then apply and tooth StoColl KM bonding mortar. Note: When using the StoTherm Classic® system, the surface must be coated with StoPrep Contact before applying the bonding mortar. 2 Precise measuring of the surface is a prerequisite for optimum installation. 3a Slurry point smooth surfaces (smooth glazed brick slips and tiles) with StoColl FM-S. 3b Sanded or grained surfaces are pointed using StoColl FM-K and a rounded jointer. Note Due to the high dead weight of the top coat, the facade insulation system must be dowelled through the mesh. Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh G should always be used as the reinforcing mesh. For detailed information on applying facade cladding, we recommend the “Cladding for facade insulation systems” application guideline.

Windows and doors Window connection general information • Windows and doors must be fixed in accordance with the latest technology in order to prevent undue movement. The corresponding relevant guidelines (e.g. those provided by the German RAL Quality Assurance Association for Windows and Doors) must be observed. • The substrate (e.g. window frame) must be level, dry, stable and free of substances which can adversely affect the adhesive bond (e.g. grease, dirt). Cleaning is advisable. An adhesive sample section should be produced. In the case of special (e.g. dirt-repellent) surface finishes, pre-treatment may be required (after consulting the door or window supplier). • Only fix the seal beads immediately before installing the adjacent insulation boards. • If the length of the connection is less than 2.30 m (or 2.40 m with Sto-Seal Bead Milano), apply the seal beads in one piece. • If the length of the connection is longer, always use the profile in its original length at the bottom and cut to size at the top. • In the corner area (window lintel), first place the vertical seal beads in their maximum length and then install the horizontal profile between the vertical profiles. • Sto-Seal Beads may not be used for the connection of windows that are flush with the rendered facade or for window elements that protrude from the (finished) facade.

Lamella insulation board made of mineral wool Insulation board made of mineral wool in accordance with EN 13162. High adhesive strength thanks to vertical fibres. Note The information up to page 46 also applies to the mineral external wall insulation system as far as possible. Any deviations are described on the following pages. Bonding the insulation boards Immediately after application of the bonding mortar (after 10 minutes at the latest), press, float into place and press-fit the insulation boards. Depending on the weathering, this time interval may be shorter. Excessive drying times of the bonding mortar on the insulation board or wall lead to the formation of a skin on the bonding mortar which can lead to adhesion problems. The insulation boards must be precisely applied in a bond. There must be no open joints between the insulation boards. Unavoidable gaps must be sealed with equivalent insulants. In order to prevent thermal bridges, there must be no bonding mortar in joints or between the board joints. Damaged insulation boards must not be installed.

Alternative: In the case of uneven substrates up to 1 cm/m, use spot/edge bonding as described on page 48. 2a After pressing the board onto the bonding mortar, it is important to ensure that the board adheres evenly to the substrate. Additional dowelling Substrates The Sto-Mineral Fibre Board must be dowelled. Dowels meeting the European Technical Approval must be used for this. The lamella insulation board can be additionally dowelled in the case of load-bearing substrates. In the event of an insufficient load-bearing capacity, the lamella insulation board must also be fixed using dowels that meet the European Technical Approval or national application guidelines. Anchorage depth The dowel must be anchored in the solid wall material at the depth required by the relevant dowel approval. Tiles and old render are not classed as suitable anchorage substrates. Pull-out test In the case of doubtful substrates, the pull-out strength has to be determined through measurements on the object. 1b Machine application of bonding mortar to the wall In the case of smooth substrates, apply an adhesive bead in sinuous lines with a max. spacing of 10 cm to the wall. 2b After pressure has been applied to the insulation board, it is important to ensure that the board is bonded evenly to the substrate. 3 Laying of the insulation boards Lay insulation boards from bottom to top, tight-butted in the bond and offset to the building corners. Press the boards firmly onto the wall. Remove any excess adhesive in order to prevent thermal bridges. Dowel specifications The dowel length depends on the existing wall structure and the insulant thickness. The number of dowels depends on the height and location (surface, edge).
