CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: WI-EN-134202-0823

Ensuring proper use of methods and materials allows masonry walls to perform well and enjoy a long life. Use of masonry joint reinforcement and accessories is an essential part of this. This course provides a brief history of solid masonry walls leading up to the modern cavity walls of today, including a discussion of the basic working knowledge of masonry joint reinforcing, structural codes, and moisture control in cavity wall construction.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe the history of solid masonry walls and how they have shifted into today's cavity walls to meet the evolving needs of modern societies.
  • Analyze the types of joint reinforcing including their design, function, correct application, and installation, as well as their role in ensuring the safety and performance of masonry walls.
  • Evaluate the types of adjustable ties and stone anchors available, including how to choose the proper type for a specific project and proper installation techniques.
  • Explain the types of flashing, mortar dropping collection devices, and weeps used in masonry walls and how these devices deal with possible water intrusion to ensure the life of the masonry wall.
