LOCAL NEWS | Upcoming Webinar: Adhered Veneers Wall Systems: Where to Start to Achieve Better Results
Adhered veneer wall systems consist of masonry "glued" with mortar to a stucco backup. Historically, these systems have been viewed as an economical option, garnering the derogatory "lick and stick" label. Contemporary adhered veneer systems have evolved significantly, as have the codes and standards used to design and construct them.
In this complimentary, one-hour webinar, architects Renae Kwon and Daren Kneezel and engineer Leah Ruther will draw on WJE's extensive experience investigating failures for design and construction and will present general strategies to achieve a successful adhered veneer installation.
By the end of the webinar, you will be able to:
- Contrast prescriptive design requirements versus engineered design requirements
- Explain industry guides and standards (i.e., ASTM/ANSI) related to adhered veneer products and installation of adhered veneers
- Identify at least three of the most common failure mechanisms for adhered veneer systems
- Summarize key quality control steps to consider during construction that can lead to a successful installation
There will be plenty of time for your questions during the presentation. Attendees are eligible for one American Institute of Architects (AIA) HSW Learning Unit.
