01.030.0332: Base of Wall Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing, CMU Foundation

This detail illustrates a base of wall condition with a partially grouted and reinforced concrete masonry foundation. Below grade waterproofing and an air/moisture/vapor barrier above grade provide continuous resistance to air and moisture; continuous insulation offers excellent thermal control. The flexible thru-wall flashing is supported across the cavity with rigid insulation and grout. An optional […]

01.030.0402: Window Sill Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing

This detail illustrates a masonry window sill condition. The concrete masonry backing is treated with blocking at the perimeter of the opening, which is wrapped with transition material that engages with the air/moisture/vapor barrier in the field of the wall. This provides continuous resistance to air and moisture. Continuous insulation offers excellent thermal control. The […]

01.030.0602: Window Head Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing

This detail illustrates a masonry window head condition. The concrete masonry backing is treated with blocking at the perimeter of the opening, which is wrapped with transition material that engages with the air/moisture/vapor barrier in the field of the wall. This provides continuous resistance to air and moisture. Continuous insulation offers excellent thermal control. An […]

01.030.0705: Shelf Angle Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing, Shelf Angle with Bracket-Type Standoffs

This detail illustrates a shelf angle projected from the concrete masonry backing with a system of standoff brackets anchored to the backing. The brackets allow the shelf angle to avoid contact with the backing, which would otherwise transfer heat across the cavity. The brackets project the shelf angle out the required distance to adequately support […]

01.030.0831: Roof-Wall Interface Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing

This detail illustrates a low roof terminating into a higher wall. The tall interior single-wythe CMU wall transitions into an anchored veneer wall above the roof line. The open web steel joists of the roof structure bear on the tall CMU wall via a steel bearing plate on a CMU bond beam. The roof system […]

01.030.0901: Top of Wall Detail – Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing

This detail illustrates a parapet condition including the roof termination into the masonry wall and the top of wall termination. The open web steel joists of the roof structure bear on the CMU wall via a steel bearing plate on a CMU bond beam. The roof system terminates with the roof counterflashing engaging with the […]

01.410.0201: End Dam Diagram – Field-Formed Flashing End Dam

01.030.0804: Roof-Wall, Brick veneer, CMU backup, rigid insul. w/ taped joints, veneer ties

This wall system shows brick veneer, concrete masonry backup, rigid insulation with integral facer and taped joints, and veneer ties tying the brick back to the block.  The taped joints in the insulation serve as the wall’s air barrier per insulation manufacturer’s recommendations. View a 2D cross-section of the detail.

01.030.0203: Wall System – Brick Veneer, CMU Backup, Rigid Insulation w/ Taped Joints, Veneer Ties

This wall system shows brick veneer, concrete masonry backup, rigid insulation with integral facer and taped joints, and veneer ties tying the brick back to the block. The taped joints in the insulation serve as the wall’s air barrier, per insulation manufacturer’s recommendations.
