    Abstract: A system for mounting building wall panels to building frames, and a method of its use, are disclosed. The system is comprised of a multiplicity of insertional frames, at least some of which provide a mounting means element therein with two degrees of motion freedom, which insertional frames are secured to building wall panels. The system provides for quick, easy and economical mounting of building wall panels to building frames by construction personnel as the mounting means elements in the insertional frames can be adjusted to match the location of the corresponding mounting means on a building frame. The invention also, most importantly, provides protection against the development of potentially damaging stresses in building wall panels mounted to a building frame as a result of seismic activity, thermal expansion, wind induced building shape changes etc.
