What's fixings to use for battening an internal brick wall?

[Temmy]

Hello,

What fixings / approach would you use to batten vertical timbers onto an interior brick (likley breezeblock) wall?

Thinking this sort of batten:

Cheers.

Polymer grab mastic.
Then a few red plugs and screws . Probably every 500mm.

Depends what your hanging off them

Going to do a reclaimed wood feature wall, exactly like this:

Maybe a little clear polymer grab..
CTI or OB1.
Also I'd put 3 screws in each vertical fixed to wall.
Fisher red plugs and 50mm screws

I did exactly that, plugged and screwed the battens. Didn't consider chemical fixings, the load isn't that much, right?

There is poyentially sufficient weight to justify 7mm holes, brown plugs and 5mm screws at 300 to 400mm centres IMHO. I recently fitted out the interior of an 8 person lift car with 25mm thick rough sawn timber (walls and ceiling - not my choice, but the architect's design, and he seems happy enough with it). Anyway the lift car engineer who came to balance the lift informed me that I had increased the weight of the lift car by nearly 200kg
