TECHNICAL DATA - BELDEN THRU-WALL UNITS RVALUE 6 INCH THRU-WALL 8 INCH THRU-WALL Hollow ASTM C 652 R =. 95 Hollow ASTM C 652 R = 1.10 These two values are calculated using the dual path procedure outlined in Brick Industry Association (BIA) Technical Notes 4. (Path A was through the face shells and webs, Path B was through the face shells and cells. A weighted average was then determined for each path Higher value may be obtained by calculating the walls' U-Value, taking into account outside and inside air films.

WALL HEIGHT COMPARISONS • Modest Loading • Comparable Grout and Reinforcing From a cost comparison standpoint, we are compar- ing installed costs of various Reinforced Brick Masonry (RBM) and Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) single wythe systems. In comparing 6" TTW brick and 8" half high CMU, in a days time, a mason and tender will install ap- proximately 350 CMU. In that same time, 365 brick would be installed. Productivity differences are due to unit size and weight. Similar productivity differences by other size TTW Brick in corresponding size CMU are also seen. 6 INCH 8 INCH 8 INCH 12 INCH MASON...

The Thru-Wall units shown in this brochure will have the following f'm values when using Type S mortar. *Strength of the grout will control the F'm value....

Reinforced brick masonry is not a new wall system. Reinforcing steel and grout have been used with brick masonry for over 100 years. With brick masonry's high compressive strength, reinforcing makes for an economical, high- strength wall in comparison to other reinforced masonry systems. DOUBLE MONARCH THRU-WALL Thru-Wall Brick offer: • Greater design flexibility. • Reduced backup requirements. • Reduced number of tie connections, which provides a more continuous moisture barrier. • Greater seismic resistance and more ductility. • Less restrictive deflection requirements of the backup structure....
