| 520 | _aBed joint reinforcement is an accepted technique for making masonry walls tougher, stronger, and less likely to crack. In its traditional form of hoop iron or mild steel, it has a finite life and is expensive to treat or remove. More durable austenitic stainless steel (ASS) versions are now widely available. For some time, the industry has been developing methods for installing bed joint reinforcement ("retro-reinforcement") into existing walls. This guide explains how retro-reinforcement is done, discusses the materials, products and equipment used, and gives examples of when retro-reinforcement would be appropriate. Contains boxes describing the characteristics of brickwork and blockwork, and structural design issues to be considered. | ||
