Abstract
An adjustable wall-tie reinforcing system for use in conjunction with the construction of wall systems having an inner wythe and an outer wythe, and comprising a reinforcing wall-tie assembly including a pair of spaced parallel reinforcing members disposed within said inner wythe and a plurality of predeterminably spaced laterally extending members. The laterally extending members have the inner ends thereof secured to one of said parallel reinforcing rods and the outer ends thereof disposed in the space between said wythes. The system also includes a wall-tie element comprising a longitudinal rod which has a plurality of predeterminably spaced lateral rods whose inner ends are secured to said longitudinal rod. The wall-tie element is secured in said outer wythe with the outer ends of said spaced lateral rods being disposed in the space between said wythes. These outer ends are adapted to adjustably engage with the outer ends of said laterally extending members within predetermined vertical limits, so as to secure said inner and outer wythes with respect to one another; while preventing inward or outward lateral movement of said wythes with respect to one another.
