Built-in components for masonry construction – Part 1: Wall ties
The objective of this Standard is to provide manufacturers with requirements for the classification of wall ties into three duty ratings.
This Standard specifies requirements for wall ties for use in tying together —
- the leaves of cavity masonry walls;
- masonry veneer walls and loadbearing frames; and
- masonry veneer walls against a strong backing wall.
In 2024, the P4783 Building and Construction Australian adoptions standards committee was formed to consider this standard’s suitability (and the suitability of other Australian building standards) for rejoining as a joint Australian/New Zealand standard.
