Remedial wall ties are most often used for reconnecting the inner and outer walls of an existing cavity-wall structure. Wall tie replacement is often required when the original tying system loses strength as a result of corrosion. Sometimes replacement wall ties may need to be installed if the built-in ties have been incorrectly fitted; for example if not enough ties have been used, they are not embedded to the correct depth or the type of tie used is inappropriate for the building.<\/p>\n
When replacing cavity ties with a remedial tying system it is important to bear in mind that the replacement wall ties should perform the same functions as those required from ties used in the buildings construction. They should:<\/p>\n

steel ties depends on the wall tie type used in construction.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default”

masonry arches with helical reinforcement rods is a highly effective way of repairing and strengthening old brick or stone arched structures. Installation of the heavy-duty helical ties maintains arching-action, restrains thrust and prevents failing arches from collapsing. A masonry arch transfers vertical loadings via its base to abutments that\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>restrain the resulting thrust, help maintain arching action and prevent the arch from collapsing. Old arches may fail due to tension developing in the arch, causing separation of arch layers or movement of the keystones. Early signs of failure become apparent when an arch sags or cracks. This cracking and displacement failure is potentially dangerous and may lead to instability. The introduction of external bracing can provide additional resistance. If tension develops in the masonry, adding reinforcing ties increase resistance to tension forces and reconnect separated arch-layers or keystones.

Heavy-duty masonry pinning is now quick and easy with the Thor Helical long-series 12mm CD Wall Tie. The self-tapping, mechanical fix tie straps the perimeter wall of a building to walls running perpendicular to it, adding strength and lateral restraint at masonry abutments. It is common for the facade wall of a building to bow or buckle and to pull away at the corner of cracked or poorly bonded partition walls. Historically repairs have been made using right-angled batt-straps to reconnect brickwork at the weakened wall junctions. These strapping repairs, although successful, are often impractical and intrusive and result in costly repair works to replace plaster and wall decorations. In more recent times, adopting new techniques that use long cement-bonded reinforcement bars from the outside of a building to reinforce wall junctions eliminates the need for disruptive internal work and the associated re-decoration. However, pumping cement into boreholes is messy and slow. Additionally, cement-based products are unusable in extreme temperatures and incompatible with structures built with lime mortars.<\/p>\n The Thor Helical 12mm CD Tie overcomes these problems, fixing outer facades to party walls or perpendicular partitions without bonding agents. The twin-start drive-in helical wall ties have work-hardened blades that corkscrew into small pilot holes formed in the brick, block or stone when driven with an SDS hammer-drill and purpose-made drive adaptor. The tie grips the brickwork along the entire length of the helix to provide a mechanically fixed tension strap that reconnects and strengthens the masonry junction\/ abutment.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.7)” background_color_gradient_direction=”57deg” background_image=”https:\/\/www.ebmwales.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/PHOTO-2022-08-18-14-27-31.jpg” background_blend=”overlay” custom_padding=”6px||0px||false|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” width_tablet=”90%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” max_width=”1170px” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font_size=”25px” header_3_font=”Barlow|700|||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_font_size=”33px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” width=”74%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”60px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_3_font_size_tablet=”” header_3_font_size_phone=”30px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Poppins|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.8em” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-5px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.ebmwales.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/logo-wh-lg-gr-sm-nw.png” title_text=”logo-wh-lg-gr-sm-nw” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”||60px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||60px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||60px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”0px||23px||false|” top_divider_height=”32px” top_divider_flip=”vertical” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”92%” width_tablet=”90%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|tablet” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”|||-17px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”|||-17px|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”|0px||0px|false|true” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”70px||||false|false” module_alignment_tablet=”center” module_alignment_phone=”left” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|||40px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” animation_style=”fade” animation_direction=”left” animation_duration=”1500ms” animation_delay=”500ms” animation_speed_curve=”ease” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#92bf50″ header_2_font_size=”25px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” max_width=”500px” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”30px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Nunito||||||||” text_text_color=”#00224f” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.65em” max_width=”700%” max_width_tablet=”700%” max_width_phone=”700%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-17px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Lateral restraint ties are used for fixing bulging walls to floor joists. Bowing or leaning brickwork is locked\u00a0 in place by securing it into a stable flooring structure. A series of load-sharing tie bars are installed along the length of the wall to prevent further movement of the masonry. Bowing or the bulging outwards of old brick or stone walls is often due to the fact that walls were inadequately tied into the floor or roof structure during construction. When the wall then becomes overloaded, for example when supporting heavier roof tiles, the wall develops a tendency to buckle at mid-height or where window openings create a natural weak spot. Bulges in walls having lime mortars may develop so slowly that movement occurs without any visual sign of cracking; it may therefore go unnoticed for a long time. Traditional methods of restraining bowing walls include the provision tie bars and pattress-plates or the introduction of retrofit batt straps; both involve substantial upheaval. Thor Helical has developed two discrete and unobtrusive systems for fixing bulging walls to floor joists. The choice of system depends on whether the joists run parallel to the wall or perpendicular to it.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|||40px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” animation_style=”fade” animation_direction=”left” animation_duration=”1500ms” animation_delay=”500ms” animation_speed_curve=”ease” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#92bf50″ header_2_font_size=”25px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” max_width=”500px” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”12px|||0px|false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”30px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Nunito||||||||” text_text_color=”#00224f” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.65em” max_width=”700%” max_width_tablet=”700%” max_width_phone=”700%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-18px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n A screw-in helical lateral restraint tie is used for stabilising buckled walls by securing them to at least two joists. A clearance hole is drilled through the wall and the self-drilling lateral restraint tie is power-driven through the side of the joists, gripping them with a wood-screw thread. The ties are connected to the brickwork using a chemical bonding agent.<\/p>\n Both methods of fixing bulging walls to floor joists should only be considered if the bulge in the wall does not exceed one third of the thickness of the wall, for example does not exceed 70mm in a solid 225mm wall.

The twisted wall tie bars connect the inner and outer layers of old stone walls when the core is designedly full of rubble or other infills. Old rubble-filled walls sometimes develop defects that appear as bows or bulges in one or both leaves. Common causes of such defects are; rainwater penetration, repetitive cycles of freezing and thawing and settlement of the infill.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|||40px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” animation_style=”fade” animation_direction=”left” animation_duration=”1500ms” animation_delay=”500ms” animation_speed_curve=”ease” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Nunito||||||||” text_text_color=”#00224f” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.65em” max_width=”700%” max_width_tablet=”700%” max_width_phone=”700%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-17px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The mechanism for this is that the water penetration washes the fine material out of the core infill over the years, allowing the heavier loose infill to drop down the wall. The residue build-up causes areas of localised pressure, resulting in bulging as excess infill forces the walls apart. There are two methods of re-tying rubble-filled walls. The first is method utilises a bonded connection, and the other relies on a mechanical connection to secure the inner and outer layers of stonework.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||11px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”69%” width_tablet=”69%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”” max_width_phone=”” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”60px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.ebmwales.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/remedial-im-1.jpg” title_text=”remedial im 1″ align=”center” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.ebmwales.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/remedial-2.jpg” title_text=”remedial 2″ align=”center” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.ebmwales.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/remedial-3.jpg” title_text=”remedial 3″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#074465″ background_enable_image=”off” custom_padding=”0px||65px||false|” top_divider_height=”29px” top_divider_flip=”vertical” border_width_left=”12px” border_color_left=”#8dc63f” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”83%” width_tablet=”90%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” header_3_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_font_size=”33px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” width=”65%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”60px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_3_font_size_tablet=”” header_3_font_size_phone=”30px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Poppins|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”73%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-5px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The bonded method requires drilling a large hole from one side of the wall, across the rubble infill and into the remote wall. The walls are thoroughly wetted to limit suction, and polymer-modified cement-based grout is injected via a long nozzle to fill the bore in each stone before winding the bar into the unset grout. Once cured, the bar is bonded to both stone layers creating a tension tie strap that provides resilience against further bulging pressures. Sometimes, there are difficulties installing bonding ties. It is often the case that settlement of the infill blocks insertion of wetting or grout-injection nozzles, the blockages hindering grout-injection in the remote leaf. Other limitations of this method include material incompatibility issues in old buildings and using a cement grout in cold temperatures.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” header_3_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_font_size=”33px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” width=”65%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”60px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_3_font_size_tablet=”” header_3_font_size_phone=”30px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Poppins|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”73%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-5px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The mechanical method of tying thick rubble-filled walls requires a small and discrete pilot hole extending from the near-side wall, across the rubble infill, and into the hidden wall layer.

Sturdy 12mm helical ties mechanically fix a building\u2019s cornerstones and brick quoin corners, locking the quoins in place and adding strength to external intersections. Quoin stones traditionally make up the external corners of large houses and public buildings. They are constructed in some cases to provide additional strength for a wall built with inferior material. In other cases, they make an architectural feature of a corner, creating an impression of durability and strength. Brick quoins typically appear on brick buildings in such a way as to give the appearance of prominent masonry blocks, whilst one can equally find stone quoins on both stone and brick buildings.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|||40px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” animation_style=”fade” animation_direction=”left” animation_duration=”1500ms” animation_delay=”500ms” animation_speed_curve=”ease” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Nunito||||||||” text_text_color=”#00224f” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.65em” max_width=”700%” max_width_tablet=”700%” max_width_phone=”700%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-17px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-15px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The layout of quoins creates a series of long vertical joints adjacent to the masonry of the adjoining walls, which facilitates differential movement. Thor Helical\u2019s development of an effective and concealed method of securing unbonded quoins prevents the stones from becoming unstable, rotating or separating from the main walls. Cornerstones can be fixed to adjacent masonry walls using a heavy-duty self-tapping helical tie rod driven through the quoin and deep into the masonry. 12mm heavy-duty tie rods are hammer-driven into the masonry via a small pilot hole. Due to the shape of the oversized helix, the two-start helical tie corkscrews into the masonry to provide a concealed mechanical interlock connection, securing the quoins in place and preventing
