Angle Iron
• If the structure does require a 4” soffit, the best option is for an angle iron or tube steel to
be provided by the structural steel supplier. Channel is then welded to the bottom of the
angle iron or to the side or bottom of the tube steel. Custom brackets are then provided that
will carry the 4” brick soffit. When this design is used a large amount of brick veneer can be
carried by the system.

Installation
• Engineered Shop Drawings
will detail the placement of the
horseshoe plates
• Normally a horseshoe plate is
placed in the first mortar joint &
then in every 3rd mortar joint
• In wide soffits, horseshoe plates
are placed in alternating joints
(1st & 2nd) and then in every 3rd
mortar joint (4th & 5th) etc
• When working around mid span
supports, the horseshoe plates
are sometimes required to be
placed at every 2 mortar joints
to avoid interference issues
