Technical Information
Standards:
All C&M Architectural Masonry products are manufactured to
Australian Standards AS 4455 Masonry Units and Segmental
Pavers and tested for compliance with AS 4456 Masonry Units
and Segmental Pavers – Methods of Test. Mortar should be
accurately batched and conform to AS3700.
Control Joints:
Should extend for the full height of the wall and be spaced
at a maximum distance of 6 metres apart where walls are
not interrupted by full height doorways or window openings
(refer Australian Standards).
Joint Reinforcement:
Masonry mesh is recommended at height intervals of 600mm,
and in the two courses above and below all openings. Lap mesh
at least 150mm at all joints and intersections, except at control
joints where a slip joint must be provided. For 90mm walling
use 50mm reinforcement mesh and for 190mm walling use 150mm
reinforcement mesh.
General Guidelines:
All C&M Architectural Masonry products should be laid dry,
so covering on site is recommended. Whenever work is stopped,
the tops of walls should be covered to protect from moisture during
construction. All mortar joints should be allowed to set to ‘thumb
print’ hardness before tooling. Brush away excess mortar with
a semi-stiff brush at the end of each day’s work.
Cleaning:
Care should be taken to keep stone as clean as possible during
laying. C&M recommend the guidelines within CMAA document
MA41 Cleaning and Maintenance of Concrete Masonry Structures.
Fire Resistance:
Australian Standard AS 3700 Masonry Structures sets out the
method for determining fire resistance to walls. The Building Code
of Australia requires walls to be designed for insulation, integrity
& structural adequacy. C&M have had extensive CSIRO testing
for FRL and subsequently have a large range of masonry products
meeting the requirements of the building code. Refer to the C&M Fire
and Sound brochure.
Sound Transmission:
The statutory requirements for sound attenuation are contained
in the Building Code of Australia (BCA) which requires that some
walls of some buildings be capable of preventing a large proportion
of incident sound from passing from one wall side to the other.
These requirements are set out in Section F5 of the BCA. Refer
to C&M Fire and Sound brochure for more information.
