Wall Ties
Wall ties are used to connect two masonry walls together, typically an inner and an outer wall. Ties are essential at maintaining the stability and integrity of the wall as they stop the two walls from moving independently.
Many types of wall ties are available. Traditional metal ties have been used for years and are made from stainless steel or galvanised steel. Insulated wall ties include a thermal break to reduce heat transfer through the ties. Expansion ties expand when they are installed to provide a secure connection between the two walls.
If a building experiences settlement or movement after construction, wall ties should be inspected and replaced if necessary.
