Re: Brick walls, 13215 Sherbern Drive
Dear Mr. Moed:
After inspecting the brick veneer walls on this new borne, as you requested, I recommend
additional support as we discussed.
The walls on the southeast comer oftbe home overhang the concrete foundation by about 1 Y,
inches. The bricks measure about 3 y, x 2 Yo inches. 'The overhang exceeds the allowable for
corbeling. The brick walls are 1 to 1 V, stories high. I recommend that steel angles be anchored
to the concrete foll11dat:ion to add support to the brick. The angles should be a minimum of 1 'I.
x 3 V, inches to provide sufficient edge distance in the concrete wall. Anchors 3/8 inch or
larger, installed within 6 inches of eacb end of the angles, and spaced not more than 3 feet
apart in between will provide adequate support.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Very truly yours,
~-L~~7~/-
