| | FBC 1405.8 SLAB-TYPE VENEER. |
| | SLAB-TYPE VENEER UNITS NOT EXCEEDING 2 INCHES (51 MM) |
| | IN THICKNESS SHALL BE ANCHORED DIRECTLY TO MASONRY, |
| | CONCRETE OR STUD CONSTRUCTION. FOR VENEER UNITS OF |
| | MARBLE, TRAVERTINE, GRANITE OR OTHER STONE UNITS OF |
| | SLAB FORM TIES OF CORROSION-RESISTANT DOWELS IN DRILLED |
| | HOLES SHALL BE LOCATED IN THE MIDDLE THIRD OF THE EDGE |
| | OF THE UNITS, SPACED A MAXIMUM OF 24 INCHES (610 MM) |
| | APART AROUND THE PERIPHERY OF EACH UNIT WITH NOT LESS |
| | THAN FOUR TIES PER VENEER UNIT. UNITS SHALL NOT EXCEED |
| | 20 SQUARE FEET (1.9 M2) IN AREA. IF THE DOWELS ARE NOT |
| | TIGHT FITTING, THE HOLES SHALL BE DRILLED NOT MORE THAN |
| | 0.063 INCH (1.6 MM) LARGER IN DIAMETER THAN THE DOWEL, |
| | WITH THE HOLE COUNTERSUNK TO A DIAMETER AND DEPTH EQUAL |
| | TO TWICE THE DIAMETER OF THE DOWEL IN ORDER TO PROVIDE |
| | A TIGHT-FITTING KEY OF CEMENT MORTAR AT THE DOWEL |
| | LOCATIONS WHEN THE MORTAR IN THE JOINT HAS SET. VENEER |
| | TIES SHALL BE CORROSION-RESISTANT METAL CAPABLE OF |
| | RESISTING, IN TENSION OR COMPRESSION, A FORCE EQUAL TO |
| | TWO TIMES THE WEIGHT OF THE ATTACHED VENEER. IF MADE OF |
| | SHEET METAL, VENEER TIES SHALL BE NOT SMALLER IN AREA |
| | THAN 0.0336 BY 1 INCH (0.853 BY 25 MM) OR, IF MADE OF |
| | WIRE, NOT SMALLER IN DIAMETER THAN 0.1483-INCH (3.76 |
| | MM) WIRE. |
