MASONRY

Installation-Truss and Ladur

Use at least one longitudinal side rod for each bed joint. Out to out

spacing of the side rods is approximately 2" less than the nominal

thickness of the wall or wythe in which the reinforcement is placed.

Splices

Side rods should be lapped 6" at splices in order to provide

adequate continuity of the reinforcement when subjected to normal

shrinkage stresses.

Centering and Placement

Place joint reinforcement directly on masonry and place mortar over

wire to form bed joint. This applies to both truss type (shown) and

ladur type.

Seismic Dur-O-Eye

and Ladur Eye

The use of Seismic Dur-O-Eye™ or Ladur Eye™ to tie two masonry

wythes together is recommended where seismic or high wind loads

may occur. Both products have been specifically engineered to

simplify installation while providing more accurate placement.

The key to this system is the patented steel plate and pintle. This

plate features positioning tabs on the underside which align the

assembly with the masonry wall. Once in place, these tabs assure

proper mortar coverage for corrosion protection as well as proper

embedment for maximum strength. The pintle plate has a pair

of shear lugs which hold pencil rod in place for greater pullout

resistance and ductility in Seismic Zones 3 and 4. The pintle itself

adjusts 1-1/4" up or down to allow for different course heights and

allows at least 1/2" horizontal in place movement to accommodate

expansion and contraction. Since the Plate and Truss or Ladur

reinforcement come as a single, ready to use unit, there's no

fumbling with clips or other job site assembly.

Mortar Deflection

For use at the base of the wall and where flashing is installed to

keep the airspace clear of mortar and debris. Mortar deflection will

allow the weep holes to stay open and drain properly. Designed for

commercial and residential construction. Mortar deflection does not

absorb water and helps prevent mold. Can be installed by simply

placing a continuous strip in the cavity at all flashing locations.

Place horizontally on top of the flashing to ensure that the mortar

droppings are broken up and deflected away from the weep holes.

Mechanical attachment is not required.

No.
