Abstract

An assembly is used to space facade panels and/or facade supports from a structural support member and the assembly is made up of a support member, a dowel and an expansion screw. The support member is resilient and is provided with stop shoulders so that it can be inserted into an opening in the facade panel or facade support with the shoulders bearing against the panel or support. A dowel is inserted through and is interengaged with the support member. The dowel is inserted into a borehole in the structural support member and the expansion screw secures the dowel within the borehole.
