Code update - loop ties - Brief Article

Masonry Construction, July, 2002

The question about "Placing loop ties in wall systems" that appeared in the March issue referenced a 1999 MSJC document when the statement "Ties that contain cavity drips require twice the frequency" was made.

The recently released 2002 MSJC document now states in Paragraph 2.1.5.3.2 that "Wall ties shall be without cavity drips."
