Use where there is
a need to re-connect or add ties to an existing façade from
an interior wood or steel stud.Regardless of parent structure material
and size, the CTP
Façade-Tie Bracket easily adapts by
connecting it to either the CTP
Grip-Tie or
veneer anchoring systems. The CTP Façade-Tie Bracket system
is installed from the interior of the structure. It is an alternative
to existing veneer re-anchoring methods which involve exterior
hole drilling, mortar patch matching, and costly scaffolding expense. The
CTP Façade-Tie Bracket is ideally suited
for reconnecting the exterior masonry skin from the interior structure
during remodeling, build-outs, or basic building renovation.
The CTP Façade-Tie Bracket is
a façade re-anchoring
system and economical solution to fortify and stiffen existing
veneers from the parent structure. It is easy to install
and operates via mechanical connections. The CTP
Façade-Tie
Bracket is manufactured of corrosion resistant materials
for long term durability. As an example, Type 304 stainless steel
is an excellent selection for timber connections; whereas the hot
dipped galvanized bracket is suitable for galvanized steel studs. It
can be attached to the interior structure via dual screw fasteners
manufactured of compatible materials that transfer veneer live
loading to the building via shear, This reliable load transfer
is as a result of the brackets split plate interface connection.
Façades built of brick, stone, block, precast,
etc. can be re-attached from the interior of the structure affordably
and without exterior marks. The interior re-connection process
eliminates the need for exterior scaffolding. It also keeps
the outer surface of the veneer from being compromised by drilled
holes and creating aesthetic concerns. The basic intent
of the CTP Façade-Tie Bracket assembly
is to replicate or supplement the tie integrity of an existing
veneer anchoring scenario.

- Resists veneer out-of-plane forces
- Provides veneer in-plane movement
- No exterior holes to patch
- No exterior scaffolding required

The veneer to bracket connection can be accomplished
by either the
CTP Stitch-Tie or CTP Grip-Tie anchoring
systems. Both are
proven masonry anchoring systems that provide installation adjustability,
added veneer stiffness, and substantial tension/compression load
resistant qualities. The selection of the anchoring type is
a function of performance and installation conditions which may be
challenged by the integrity of the free standing façade or
interior space limitations. Note that either anchor is manufactured
of stainless steel and/or brass components for long term performance
expectations and a quality installation. |
