RE: Brick ties

Harold,

 

My question was meant to be general, hoping to find out what different techniques people on the list have seen, but my primary interest is in the northern Rockies (US), over wall substrates of wood frame or CMU.

 

thanks,

Gordon Goodell

What is the substrate to which the bricks are tied, and what region of the US?

Regards, Harold Sprague
