Masonry Veneer, 3rd Edition, is based on practical technical information. This book is a must for understanding what makes a veneer system work and is an essential tool for Architects, Designers, Building Officials, Inspectors, Masons and Masonry Contractors. Currently most building codes recognize two basic methods to install masonry veneer: Adhered veneer secures the masonry units to the structural back-up using bonding material. Anchored veneer attaches the masonry to the structural back-up using mechanical fasteners called anchor ties or veneer ties. The International Building Code® allows the use of alternative systems based on engineering principles such as reinforced veneer, masonry panels and stone panels on structural frame back-ups. This book addresses essential information on: System Requirements (Adhered Veneer and Anchored Veneer), Materials (Shelf Angles, Expansion Joints, Flashing, Weep Holes, and Connectors), Details and Guide Specifications The success of any veneer system depends on the proper design, selection of durable materials and quality construction. This book guides the designer and installer in developing a quality masonry veneer system.
