MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATION

Interior Walls
Interior walls, which are non-load bearing, should utilize standard weight reinforcing with a mill galvanized finish.

Exterior Walls
Exterior load bearing walls need a three- or four-wire system with two longitudinal wires in the block and one or two longitudinal wires in the brick as conditions dictate. We recommend hot dipped galvanized after fabrication, ASTM A 153 Class B2 where complete protection from corrosion is required. Uneven coursing or conditions where block is laid first and brick later should use the adjustable tab or hook and eye system. An additional advantage to adjustable reinforcing is to provide a mechanical tie to restrain insulation in a partially filled masonry cavity wall.

Special Material
Our manufacturing capabilities allow us to make a wide variety of products, some of which are not shown in our catalog. Please contact us for specific advice and availability of any item you may require for masonry walls.
