01.030.0332 Base of Wall | 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, and continuous insulation offers excellent thermal control. The flexible thru-wall flashing is supported across the cavity with rigid insulation and grout. An optional cavity drainage insert protects the weep vents from becoming obstructed. The detail incorporates a vertical brick expansion joint and a vertical control joint at the block backing. Finish grade is held away from the wall with a gravel mowing strip protecting the masonry against moisture. A system of flashing and weeps at the base allow moisture to exit the drainage cavity. The durable drip edge guards against moisture reentry and may be notched to avoid excessively thick laps.

    Very nice progress! Hard to tell, is the end of the drip edge notched? Prefer to show only two course of 16" foundation block. This way it will fit better on a PPTX slide.

      Thanks for the reminder about the notched flashing… I’ll be doing insets as we discussed for some of the repetitive elements like notched drip, mortar wash,

    Maybe we only show the rigid insulation joint material (i.e. SPF) at a portion of the board joint to convey that it generally will be used at localized areas (as needed….Trimble is working on the NOTE) which intended to maintain thermal continuity due to large gaps. My thoughts if it is drawn the entire board joint length it implies 100% as opposed to localized regions.

    Agree with Pat…too much below grade shown.

10.030.0633 Lintel rebuild | Terra cotta, extruded

This detail illustrates a modern rebuild strategy for replacing existing architectural terra cotta (TC) lintel, soffit, and accessory units around window openings. The existing TC is replaced with new extruded TC units, installed not filled, with weep holes at the underside of each overhanging unit; each secured with new stainless-steel anchorage. In restoring and rebuilding these types of historic wall systems, moisture mitigation is critical to their long-term preservation and performance. Moisture management measures in this detail include horizontal skyward-facing joint treatment of sealant or lead T-caps, and an integrated flashing system installed to protect existing structural steel. The flashing system includes a self-adhering flashing with ends dams secured by a termination bar with continuous sealant, a stainless-steel drip edge, and weeps in the vertical joints. Accessible existing structural steel is also protected by cleaning and coating with a corrosion-inhibiting co

10.030.0433 Sill and mullion rebuild | Terra cotta, extruded

This detail illustrates a modern rebuild strategy for replacing existing architectural terra cotta (TC) sill, mullion, and accessory units around window openings. The existing TC is replaced with new extruded TC units, installed not filled, with weep holes at the underside of each overhanging unit; each secured with new stainless-steel anchorage. In restoring and rebuilding these types of historic wall systems, moisture mitigation is critical to their long-term preservation and performance. Moisture management measures in this detail include horizontal skyward-facing joint treatment of sealant or lead T-caps, and an integrated flashing system beneath the sill. The flashing system includes a self-adhering flashing with ends dams secured by a termination bar with continuous sealant, a stainless-steel drip edge, and weeps in the vertical joints. The existing structural steel supports are also protected by cleaning and coating with a corrosion-inhibiting coating. These TC rebuild details

04.030.0202 Dimension stone wall, interior | Wire ties and molding plaster

     04.030.0202 Dimension stone wall, interior | Wire ties and molding plaster This detail shows 2 cm (3/4 in.) thick dimension stone anchored to an interior wall substrate with anchors of 8-gauge  (0.1285”) copper or stainless steel wire ties encapsulated by molding plaster at the perimeter of each stone panel. The wire is fitted into slightly oversized holes in edges of the stone panels, with wood plugs filling the space around the wire. The wire anchors are sized and spaced per empirical design and are fastened to the concrete masonry backing via holes cut into the block, also filled with plaster or rapid-curing cementitious material. Joints between the panels may be finished with compatible sealant and backer rod (not shown for clarity). This detail shall not be used for construction without the approval of a licensed design professional. The person using this detail shall be responsible for its complete design and proper application.
