This part of BS 8298 gives recommendations for the design, installation and maintenance of natural stone directly attached to precast concrete units (i.e. stone-faced concrete cladding units as defined in BS 8297).

It is not applicable to loadbearing stones or stones held only by adhesion or to any type of stonework supported or held in position around the perimeter of stones or series of stones by metal framing.

Guidance on the design of the precast concrete unit and fixing is given in BS 8297.

Different cladding and lining methods are covered in the other parts of BS 8298 (see Foreword).
