1 Masonry Details That Work Prepared by Dr. Michael A. Hatzinikolas, Ph.D., P.Eng. Canadian Masonry Research Institute 2000

2 INTRODUCTION The Canadian Masonry Research Institute The Canadian Masonry Research Institute (CMRI) is a non-profit regional masonry association founded in 1971 to provide design advice and technical support to the construction industry across the prairie provinces. CMRI s membership includes all major masonry contractors and producers of masonry products in the region. Structural engineers, architects, researchers, contractors, developers and building owners are invited to visit or contact CMRI in Edmonton, Alta. Acknowledgements This manual was prepared under the direction of Dr. Michael Hatzinikolas, P.Eng., Executive Director of the Canadian Masonry Research Institute. Details were provided and reviewed by a number of individuals with specialized knowledge and experience in Canadian masonry design and construction. Gratefully acknowledged are the contributions by Mr. Gary Sturgeon, MSc., P.Eng., Code Development Engineer for Masonry Canada, by Mr. R. Pacholok, MSc, P.Eng., and by Mr. Chris Makepease from the Alberta Department of Public Works. The window, door, and wall penetration details are based on those prepared for C.M.H.C by Mr. Jim Posey of Posey Construction Specifications. CMRI would like to especially acknowledge Masonry Canada and the Federal Government Department of Western Economic Diversification for their contribution to development of Details That Work, and in particular, to Mr. Michael Bowen. Disclaimer This manual is intended to encourage state-of-the-art masonry design by offering details of critical building features that can be adapted and developed by architectural and engineering professionals to suit the particular conditions of a building, including location, use and occupancy. The user of Details That Work should be familiar with local building practices, and the requirements of the local Building Code and the CSA Masonry Standards. These standards include: CSA S304.1, Masonry Design for Buildings, Limit States Design CSA A179, Mortar and Grout for Unit Masonry Canada CSA A370, Masonry Connectors CSA A371, Masonry Construction for Buildings CSA A165 Series, Concrete Masonry Units CSA A82 Series, Brick Masonry Units CSA S478, Guideline on Durability in Buildings

3 The user should carefully evaluate the effects of all structural and non-structural environmental loads, and the masonry should be designed, and the appropriate materials, components and assemblies selected, to effectively resist these loads over the design service life. The sizes and configurations of the components and assemblies shown in the manual are for illustration purposes only, and are not intended to promote a specific product over others available on the market. The user may choose to substitute other components and assemblies where appropriate. It is the responsibility of the user to apply professional knowledge in the use of the details. CMRI does not warrant or assume any liability for the accuracy or completeness of the details, or their fitness for any particular purpose or project.
