MASONRY CONTROL JOINTS
MASONRY CONTROL JOINTS
(OP)
WHAT IS THE GENERAL OPINION ON MASONRY CONTROL JOINTS - ARE THEY REQUIRED FOR INTERIOR WALLS NOT EXPOSED TO WEATHER (EXCEPT DURING CONSTRUCTION)? IF REQUIRED, DO THE GENERAL SPACING REQUIREMENTS (25'-30') STILL GOVERN OR CAN THIS BE LENGTHENED? ANY ASSISTANCE IS APPRECIATED.






RE: MASONRY CONTROL JOINTS
It has a handy table that lists spacing for both exterior and interior walls. For example - in the central U.S. the avg. annual humidity is listed at 70% - for exterior walls with bed joint reinf. at 16" o.c. the recommended spacing for joints is 24 feet. For interior its listed as 30 feet.
