The exterior wall envelope shall be designed and constructed in such a manner as to prevent the accumulation of water within the wall assely by providing a waterresistive barrier behind the exterior veneer as described in Section 14032 and a means for draining water that enters the assely to the exterior
A brick veneer is a type of exterior wall cladding that is commonly utilized in areas with consistent climate and has fewer weather patterns If the atmosphere in your area has a high moisture content expect that masonry materials will naturally react by accumulating the moisture inside and outside the bricks
2022313 Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems EIFS or External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems ETICS as they are also known are proprietary multilayered exterior wall systems that are increasingly popular with architects and owners because they improve energy savings reduce costs and provide tremendous design versatility

With masonry veneer buildings the exterior insulation does not have to be fastened to the substrate Rather brick ties can be used to secure the insulation in place However brick ties—and more importantly shelf angles required for masonry veneer—can significantly affect the thermal performance of the assely

Cavity Wall Insulation increases the sound reduction in brick veneer walls from Rw51 to Rw59 Fire Safe Cavity Wall Insulation will not burn and actually retards the spread of flame Cavity wall insulation has a 4 zero fire rating when tested under Australian Standard 1530 Part 3 m1976 This is the best possible rating Condensation Control
2018525 The brick veneer/metal stud BV/MS backup exterior wall assely was invented in New England in the 1970s This type of system was formed to substitute the more expansive concrete masonry unit CMU backup wall
Thus exterior insulation is common in steel studframed backup wall systems Where insulated sheathing is used as shown in Fig 614 the exterior insulation may be moisturetolerant rigid board insulation eg polyisocyanurate or XPS Closedcell spray foam insulation rated for exterior wall cavity appliions may also be appropriate

2017118 Many older masonry buildings are built using a structural brick wall Instead of adding an exterior veneer layer of brick to a wood or steel framework as is done today a structural brick wall uses several adjacent layers or wythes
2018417 maintenance In addition the brick veneer provides a fire rating reduces exterior noise transmission and resists damage from abrasion and flying debris Dating to the Colonial era the brick veneer/wood stud wall system has evolved into a successful construction method used in residential and light commercial structures

202016 Exterior insulation and high air and consultants in the wall industry Introduction Brick Veneer systems over metal stud framing have become prevalent in the construction of architectural walls in commercial buildings Depending on how they are erected there can be challenging performance Thermal Able to achieve continuous insulation
2014414 Insulation placed in the exterior air cavity between brick veneer and a backup wall is now common practice however accounting for the reduction in thermal performance as a result of thermal bridging at brick ties is not As the building enclosure’s actual thermal performance becomes more important and integrated into the overall design of other building systems a
