cavity walling. (PIC 4)

A new extension to an existing building using imperial bricks and lime mortar. The extension was built internally using dense concrete blocks. As I was using imperial brick I used a screw in wall tie to accomodate the larger type of brick being used in conjunction with 440x215x100mm dense block. The bond of the face brickwork was a full english bond, incorporating colums, arches, dental and corbeling courses with a 100mm cavity and 50mm insulation board.
