This diagram shows the end of wall or typical jamb condition in a concrete masonry wall. Grout and reinforcement are spaced vertically and horizontally within the wall at designed intervals. The top course is a bond beam with a hook returning vertically down the wall, overlapping the vertical bar in the end cell distance as designed. An optional grout stop is shown to confine grout to the bond beam course if required. Vertical bars are held in place with bar positioner or similar device spaced 200 bar diameters max. or as desgined.

This detail shows the top of wall restraints where a structural steel beam perpendicular to the wall falls below the corrugated decking. Angles on both sides of the wall are either bolted or welded to the bottom flange of the beam. 2 hour fire rated wall construction spans between the top of masonry and the decking above, between perpendicular beams. Firestop material fills all voids above the masonry. Steel angle restraints are secured to the masonry with self tapping screws. The top of the masonry is held back about 1 1/2" from the beam above.

This detail shows the top of wall restraints where the corrugated decking runs perpendicular to the masonry wall. Angles on both sides of the wall are anchored to the bottom of the flutes of the decking above, and are secured to the masonry with self tapping screws. The top of the masonry is held back about 1 1/2" from the structure above. This detail as shown is intended to illustrate a general concept or method of construction.

This detail shows the top of wall restraints where the corrugated decking runs parallel to the masonry wall. Angles on both sides of the wall are welded to a steel plate, which is anchored to the bottom of the flutes of the decking above. The angles are secured to the masonry with self tapping screws. The top of the masonry is held back about 1 1/2" from the plate above. This detail as shown is intended to illustrate a general concept or method of construction.

This set of three diagrams illustrates the six possible orientations a brick can be positioned in a wall: Stretcher, header, rowlock, shiner (sometimes called a bull stretcher or soap), soldier, and sailor. Of the six orientations, the shiner and sailor would typically require uncored brick units.

This detail shows various anchorage conditions of structural steel to concrete masonry, illustrating anchor bolts into the top and sides of the masonry. In each condition, the anchor bolts are sufficiently embedded in the block and encapsulated by grout 1 inch min. all around the bolt. The masonry is grouted and reinforced vertically and horizontally at designed intervals. This detail as shown is intended to illustrate a general concept or method of construction.

This detail shows angle bracing for a concrete masonry wall, anchor the top of the wall to the structure above for instances where the masonry is terminated at or above the finish ceiling. The location of the connection plate varies depending on whether the structure is parallel or perpendicular to the wall. The masonry is grouted and reinforced vertically and horizontally at designed intervals, and the top course is a bond beam with studded plates embedded in the grout and welded to the angle braces. Angle braces have a minimum slope of 3 to 4, and a maximum slope of 2 to 1. This detail as shown is intended to illustrate a general concept or method of construction.
