Can anyone ID this veneer? See attached. Is it hollow core block veneer?
Thanks.
Thanks.

It could be either a veneer unit or a through-wall unit (probably a hollow CMU). That type on construction is usually a single wythe wall and not a veneer construction because of costs.
The units with an even number of scores on the face cause some detailing problems (labor at openings and corners), but eliminate the stacked appearance of 1 or 3 scored patterns. Good suppliers make the needed assortments of corner and half length units on one or two sides, so many different options are possible if the units are laid up-side down.
jim - You will have to do some detective work to determine if it is a single wythe wall, a veneer wall or a combination at corners.
