Engineered Masonry Veneers
This presentation explores how engineers can use the alternate design provisions for anchored masonry veneers in TMS 402 to go beyond the limitations of prescriptive design. We reviewed the behavior of anchored veneers, discuss methods for engineering anchored veneers, and then demonstrate these methods with design examples.
