The use of Continuous Wire in masonry veneer walls offers critical benefits for structural integrity and moisture management. Embedded within horizontal mortar joints and secured to tie anchors attached to the backup structure, the system helps protect against thermal expansion and contraction. It ensures a more even distribution of lateral forces and meets Uniform Building Code requirements for seismic zones, enhancing anchored veneer wall performance.
Improved Structural Performance:- Manages thermal expansion and contraction stresses.
- Distributes lateral forces more uniformly across the structure.
- Designed to meet seismic zone requirements for anchored masonry veneers.
- 9 Gauge, 3/16″ diameter wire.
- Standard length: 10′.
- Channel-Tee™ Seismic-Notch Anchor System
- Hot-Dip Galvanized
- Type 304 Stainless Steel
- Type 316 Stainless Steel (Special Order)
