So, I’m reaching out for some building ideas, and I have a good amount of questions so I will be doing one question at a time: What are some ideas for how this Hardie will meet the brick? [bandicam 2022-05-13 21-45-58-778] Wall detail.skp (11.5 MB) Note: I am open to the idea of firing the wall…

Braden, you should invest in a copy of “Building Construction Illustrated” by Francis D. K. Ching . Money well spent for the work your doing. Just a thought…. :v: :sunglasses:

> Found it. Thanks for the suggestion! Looks good.

Also Ramsey/sleeper Architectural Graphic Standards.

Another good one is “Interior Graphic and Design Standards” by S. C. Reznikoff.

The Advantech is typically 3/4". You need to install the OSB directly to the framing as it serves as structural/sheer panels. Ditch the foam, it’s worthless. Put R-19 in the stud cavity. You need Tyvek over the OSB and there will only be about 1/2" air space between brick and Tyvek/OSB. No matter…

[image] ArtisanTony: there will only be about 1/2" air space between brick and Tyvek/OSB Oops. In the subarctic we today specify about 50 mm (2"). With a small air space the masonry will inevitably touch the wood structure there and there. With heavy rain and wind it will leak water into the …

There should never be a chance that brick veneer touches framing if the assembly is installed correctly. There should be a weather resistant barrier (Tyvek) between the brick and the sheathing/framing We don’t build residential in the states with a 2" air gap. I have seen this detail before but i…

Here in the UK the recommended cavity gap is 50mm - that’s from all the major materials manufacturers and construction trade bodies, e.g. TRADA. Long time builder here and I’ve built with 50mm cavity - just saying… ( long time CAD too :wink: )

In the US the typical air gap is 1”. In my area we don’t use brick much. We mainly use stone veneer and most masons do not use an air space. Instead wicks to weeps are installed to deal with moisture and self adhered waterproofing is installed behind. When I was back east all brick and stone was…
