Masonry Veneer Anchors
Masonry Veneer Anchors
(OP)
Howdy,
ACI does not provide much in the way of design for stone veneer anchorage requirements. Is there another standard that is useful in design for these? I am trying to determine anchorage spacing for a 4" split-faced limestone veneer anchored to cmu block wall with one-inch cavity (10-15' tall) using typical steel tie anchors that are grouted into the joints of the block and then the veneer.
Is there a rule of thumb for this? I have seen 16" o.c vertical and 32" o.c. horizontal to help with coarsing of the 8" block, but what stresses are of the most concern?
Thanks a lot.
