SEISMIC VENEER ANCHORS Heckmann Building Products provides a variety of Veneer Anchors, which
conform to the requirements of the Uniform Building Codes for seismic zones.
The code requires the veneer wall to have a continuous wire imbedded in
the mortar joint. This wire is then connected to the veneer anchor, which
is attached to the backup structure. This system also provides greater
stability and safeguards against problems caused by thermal expansion and
contraction. Also, the lateral force distribution is more uniform.
