We recommend utilizing the extra strength of truss when installing reinforcement in single wythe walls, where the application of grout and rebar is at a minimum.
Truss design is a prefabricated reinforcement for embedment in the horizontal mortar joints of masonry.
Manufactured in 10 foot lengths from wire conforming to ASTM A 82 / A82M for cold drawn steel wire.
Consists of two or more parallel and deformed longitudinal wires welded to a continuous diagonal cross wire at 16" O.C.
Out-to-out spacing is approximately two inches less than the nominal thickness of the wall.
