Technical Information
Standards: All Adbri Masonry Architectural Masonry products are manufactured to Australian Standards AS 4455 Masonry Units and Segmental Pavers and tested for compliance with AS 4456 Masonry Units and Segmental Pavers - Methods of Test. Mortar should be accurately batched and conform to AS3700. Control Joints: Should extend for the full height of the wall and be spaced at a maximum distance of 6 metres apart where walls are not interrupted by full height doorways or window openings (refer Australian Standards). Joint Reinforcement: Masonry mesh is recommended at height intervals of 600mm, and in the two courses above and below all openings. Lap mesh at least 150mm at all joints and intersections, except at control joints where a slip joint must be provided. For 90mm walling use 50mm reinforcement mesh and for 190mm walling use 150mm reinforcement mesh. General Guidelines: All Adbri Masonry Architectural Masonry products should be laid dry,so covering on site is recommended. Whenever work is stopped, the tops of walls should be covered to protect from moisture during construction. All mortar joints should be allowed to set to thumb print hardness before tooling. Brush away excess mortar with a semi-stiff brush at the end of each days work. Cleaning: Care should be taken to keep stone as clean as possible during laying. Adbri Masonry recommend the guidelines within CMAA document MA41 Cleaning and Maintenance of Concrete Masonry Structures. Fire Resistance: Australian Standard AS 3700 Masonry Structures sets out the method for determining fire resistance to walls. The Building Code of Australia requires walls to be designed for insulation, integrity and structural adequacy. Adbri Masonry have had extensive CSIRO testing for FRL and subsequently have a large range of masonry products meeting the requirements of the building code. Refer to the Adbri Masonry Fire and Sound brochure. Sound Transmission: The statutory requirements for sound attenuation are contained in the Building Code of Australia (BCA) which requires that some walls of some buildings be capable of preventing a large proportion of incident sound from passing from one wall side to the other. These requirements are set out in Section F5 of the BCA. Refer to Adbri Masonry Fire and Sound brochure for more information. Ordering: Adbri Masonry Architectural Masonry products are manufactured from natural materials and will vary in colour and texture from batch to batch. All products must be ordered at the one time to ensure that they are supplied from the same batch. Product should be blended from different pallets to ensure an even mix of colour throughout any given wall. Claims: All product must be inspected prior to installation to ensure satisfaction of colour and texture. No claims will be accepted once product has been installed.
