Join this CPD session on Restraint Ties and Fixings to enhance your understanding on the options available, best practice, and the correct materials to specify to ensure your projects stand the test of time. We will discuss the different types of restraints for securing masonry and options for fixing back to concrete, SFS, and a range of other internal structures, plus gain insight into the different systems for restraining stone and all the relevant standards. We will also be sharing the results of new, independent research, which confirms the correct specification and installation of brick tie channel systems from Sandberg - the world's most respected construction material consultancy with over 160 years' experience in testing the quality and performance of materials.
