Guides published for masonry fixing

Best practice guides written for both specifiers and contractors have been published by the Masonry Support Information Group (MSIG).

This group, whose members include stainless steel fixings producers Ancon Building Products and the Steel Construction Institute, provides guidance on all aspects of the design, buildability and installation of stainless steel masonry support systems.

The best practice guides include information on avoiding bi-metallic corrosion, catering for cavity width variations and constructing soft horizontal joints.
