Ancon have developed an innovative range of wall ties for use with cellular clay blockwork, where the horizontal bed joints are just 1mm. The range includes ties for internal wall junctions and internal/external cavity walls. The ties are manufactured from corrosion resistant stainless steel and are suitable for use in housing and commercial applications.
Lay the first course on a traditional sand-cement mortar bed.
Ensure the first blocks are level, horizontal in both directions and ensuring there are no lips between the adjacent blocks. This is the most crucial stage of the process, as it determines the accurate alignment of each of the subsequent build storeys, and the speed and accuracy of the construction as a whole.
Mix ZeroPlus according to guideline quantities – don’t mix more than you need
Apply ZeroPlus (mixed close to the build) to blocks with a roller
Repeat until a precision wall is complete – up to four times faster than traditional methods
