Truss Type Series 300

Truss design is a prefabricated reinforcement for embedment in the horizontal mortar joints of masonry. Manufactured in 10 foot lengths from wire, it conforms to ASTM A 82 for cold-drawn steel wire. It consists of two or more parallel and deformed longitudinal wires connected to a continuous diagonal cross wire at 16" O.C. Out-to-out spacing is approximately 2" less than the nominal thickness of the wall.

Truss Type with Ties (Series 500/700/900)

Specifications

The wire shall conform to ASTM A 82 for cold drawn steel wire and shall be of truss design consisting of two or more deformed 9 ga. (option 3/16") longitudinal wires welded not more than 16" O.C. to a 9 ga. diagonal smooth cross wire (option for 3/16" wire if so specified). All tabs and wall ties are made of 3/16" diameter wire.

Truss Double Hook & Eye is manufactured with Double Eyes welded 16" O.C. Out-to-out spacing of longitudinal wire shall be approximately 2" less than the nominal thickness of the block. Eye lengths are designed to span just beyond block or varying widths of insulation.

Prefabricated Corners and Tees

Corners and tees shall be used at all corners and wall intersections. Specify inside or outside corners. Installation shall be in strict accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. For cavity or composite walls, fabricate with additional side rod in block back-up (three wire). See General Information for Finishes and Wire Gauges.
