What is a tie?
wall tie is a form of horizontal support for wall construction that are veneered by masonry, rather than actually built of bricks and mortar structurally. The wall is usually designed from typical methods of wood or steel frame construction. After applying the outer sheet to the cold, a veneer of brick and mortar can be used. However, everyone must often be used as a stabilizing method of fastening applied from the structure of the wall and mortar to bother the brick "wall" firmly against the structural form.
The most common stabilization method for masonry works is the use of wall binding. These are attached to the form of the walls of the screws horizontally and then attached to the brick with a brick screw vertically. Then the tie the walls is simply covered with mortar and another layer can be applied.
walls can also be used for internal applications. Here they are used between inner walls as stabilizers and spacers so that wall panels that are often plasterboard must not bow or bublina. These types of bonds are similar to those used in external veneer, but are shaped slightly differently to apply horizontally to the wall panel.
There are a number of different types of walls in various design methods, as determined by the company that produces them. In most cases, the wall binding itself is made of galvanized steel or tubular aluminum. These two materials have their advantages and disadvantages and should also be used in different applications.
For example, galvanized steel walls are usually flat steels. The steel used here was either forged or cut out of the press. These flat walls are mainly used for external veneer, while the tube mold is mainly used in the inside of the inner wall cavities.
One of the most important factors when buying wall ties is state and local construction and building codes. Codes determine the rating of the frequencyvenens and weights in which wall binding must be used. In many cases, these are not only specific types of wall bonds, but bolts and fastening elements that hold them in place, they also have requirements for how long they must be and what materials they have been produced.
