Specifies the properties of wall ties for use in cavity walls of brick or block, and in masonry veneer walls in which masonry is tied to a supporting frame. Ties are graded into four classifications depending on their characteristic strength and characteristic stiffness. Appendices give minimum labelling requirements and test methods for resistance to moisture movement, strength and stiffness.

This Standard specifies the requirements for wall ties for use in tying together(a) the leaves of cavity brick or cavity block walls; and (b) masonry veneer walls of brick or block and load-bearing frames.NOTES:1. This standard gives categories of wall ties, and classifies wall ties by characteristic strength and, where applicable, characteristic stiffness.2. The use of wall ties is covered by AS 1475 and AS 1640. To satisfy the requirements of those Standards, the wall ties must be capable of transferring lateral forces(a) from one masonry leaf to the other in a cavity wall; and(b) from masonry veneer leaf to load-bearing frame.
