CMU walls with veneer
CMU walls with veneer
(OP)
Does anyone have a wall section or detail of a 8" cmu wall with 4" split face veneer wainscot. I have a client who is worried about water intrusion.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: CMU walls with veneer
Is there a cavity between the masonry wythes?

This is the what I would like to do with splitface veneer, not stone.

Everyone is doing it, CVS, Walmart, Walgreens. The top of the veneer has a water table banding stone.
I don't see any weep holes, appears to be anchored and solid.
I would think with a bituminous coating on the 8" cmu wall between the veneer there would be no water penetration.

Weeps can be made in different ways. Leaving out vertical joints (actually there are little vents that should be use in these joints). Small holes can be drilled or formed in the lowest horizontal mortar joint also.
