   Cross rods are spaced so block cells are not obstructed, allowing easy placement of vertical rebars

A full 8" splice between lengths of ladder is facilitated

Benefits:

Greatly reduces cracking that can arise from thermal stresses. This enhances resistance to water penetration, as cracks are controlled.

Increases lateral flexural strength.

Bonds exterior and interior masonry wythes together in composite or cavity walls. Also bonds masonry at intersecting walls and corners

Increases elasticity and performance of masonry walls under various stresses

Features:

Butt-welding of cross rods to longitudinal rods (not more than 16”o.c.). This construction enhances bonding capabilities, eliminates projection of cross rods beyond the specified width of reinforcement, and prevents excessive build up of wire in limited mortar joints

Continuous deformation along each longitudinal rod for superior bonding performance
