Ladder
(Core Clear)
16"
o.c. ladder design positions cross rods on web of block to allow core
clearance. This simplifies rebar installation; centering utilizes
strength of grout. Allows unrestricted flow of grout or loose fill
insulation into CMU cells. Minimizes re-setting of joint reinforcement
around rebar. Improves resistance to shrinkage cracking. Provides
stronger bond with cross rods in web of block. Less time devoted to
rebar installation, grout pouring.
Ladder
Hook & Eye is manufactured with double eyes flush welded 16"
o.c. Out-to-out spacing of longitudinal wires shall be approximately
2" less than the nominal thickness of the block. Eye lengths
are designed to span just beyond block or varying widths of insulation.
All hooks and eyes are made of 3/16" diameter wire.
