ADJUSTABLE ANCHOR SYSTEMS FOR RUBBLE STONE "Tie-2R" Anchor System This anchor system for rubble stone walls with masonry backup provides anchors where they are needed. The wall reinforcing has a projecting third rod. To this rod the stone mason attaches HELICAL HOOK ANCHORS with an easy twist. Anchor type HS is for horizontal joints and Type HP for vertical joints. Thus, the mason can fit the ties to the wall rather than having to build a wall to fit the ties. In addition, rigid insulation is easily applied between the wythes.
Tie-HVR" Anchor System In this system, the backup is reinforced with a truss type reinforcement. The mason then places the vertical rod into the cavity by hooking onto the extended truss cross rod. Rubble stone can then be tied easily to backup using standard vee ties. Horizontal mortar joints do not have to align. H & B recommends Type 304 or Type 316 Stainless Steel for maximum protection against corrosion.
