Channel and Tie System

An accepted method of tying masonry to a framed structure is the use of steel channels and ties. This allows the channel to be fixed to the framed structure during or shortly after construction and the ties to be applied later by the bricklayer as the masonry is raised.

The 25mm x 14mm channel is fixed to the framed structure during or shortly after construction and the bonding, debonding or cavity ties are applied later by the bricklayer as the masonry is raised.

Channels are available in stainless steel or epoxy powder coated galvanised steel. Stainless steel or galvanised and epoxy powder coated channel. The latter when used in conjuction with stainless steel ties, being approved by B.R.E. Report No. 235599.

Features

Components

Cavity Tie

Cavity ties are used to tie masonry back to framework across a cavity, yet resist the ingress of moisture.

Bonding Tie

Bonding ties are designed to bond masonry firmly back to the frame, resisting both lateral and longitudinal forces. One example of their use would include a short run of masonry fixed to a column adjacent to an opening. In such cases the wall is particularly vulnerable to lateral loads, hence bonding ties are a solution.

Debonding Tie

Debonding ties are designed to provide a level of lateral stability whilst allowing the wall to move longitudinally. This is achieved by providing plastic sleeves for the ties within which the tie can slip
