Cladding with Masonry & Concrete
Masonry & Concrete Cladding Materials
Brick Masonry
Stone Masonry
Cut Stone Panels
Precast Concrete
Exterior Insulation & Finish System
Masonry Veneer
Curtain Walls
Shelf Angle
•Anchored to Structure
•Every Floor
•Supports Brick Veneer
“Soft” Joint
•Allows for movement
•Structure Creep
•Brick Expansion
•Beam deflection
•Erection tolerances
Structural
Backup Wall
Metal Stud
Backup Wall
Construction Details
CMU
Backup Wall
Masonry Veneer Details
•CMU Backup Wall
•Dampproofing
•Insulation
•Brick & Ties
Metal Stud Backup Wall
•Metal Studs
•Exterior Gypsum Sheathing
•Insulation
•Attachment of Interior Finishes
Advantages vs. CMU
•Lighter
•Insert Insulation, RI
•Attachment of interior Finishes
Disadvantages vs. CMU
•Typically Less Rigid (lateral resistance)
•Susceptible to moisture damage
Shelf Angle
•Anchored to Structure
•“Hung” from the floor
Masonry Veneer Anchors
Steel Masonry Support System
Prefabricated Brick Wall Panels
Prefabricated Brick Soffit Panels
Stone Panels Mounted
on a
Steel Subframe
Considerations
•Non-structural “interior” Backup Wall needed
•System Integrity depends on Joint Sealant
Monolithic Stone Cladding
Stone panels fastened direct to
the structure
Bolted, or welded attachment
Angle bracing
Sealant required to seal joints
Non-structural backup wall req’d
Stone Facing (granite & limestone)
Stone Cladding on Trusses
•Thin sheets of Stone
•Attached to steel trusses
•Set like “panels”
Posttensioned
Limestone
Panels
Thin Stone Facings
Incorporated into
Curtain Wall Mullions
Thin Stone Facings
Used in Conjunction w/
Exterior Storefront
Thin Stone Facings Cast into (attached to) Precast Concrete Panels
Architectural
Precast

Granite

Precast Concrete Panels
Ceramic Tile Facing
On Precast Concrete
Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (GRFC)
Reinforced with Glass Fibers
Support System - often metal framing
Light (easy to mount, less structural load)
Extensive range of colors, textures, shapes
Exterior Insulation & Finish System - EIFS
System:
Foam Insulation adhered or fastened to a Backup
wall (typically metal studs with gypsum sheathing or CMU)
Up to 4” thick; prevent ‘thermal’ bridging & permits articulation
Base coat(s) of stucco like material with
reinforcing mesh
Exterior Finish coat of a stucco-like material
Appearance like stucco
Exterior Insulation & Finish System (EIFS)
EIFS
Metal Stud Support
Application of Insulation
Base coat with reinforcing mesh
Finished Application
EIFS Applications
multitude of textures and colors
EIFS
Advantages
Can be applied to steel framing, conc., CMU...
Light system, insulation value
Economical, easy to install
Multiple finishes, textures/patterns, colors
Disadvantages
Designed as a barrier system - leakage damage
Solution – development of an internal drainage system with EIFS
Easily damaged (additional reinforcing mesh to counteract)
