Common use of Brickwork and Stonework Clause in Contracts

Brickwork and Stonework. The brickwork to One Carter Lane building is a grey/brown facing brick laid in a modified Flemish bond. The pointing consists of a reddish coloured sand cement mortar with an 8mm recessed/raked joint to perpends and bed joints. The brickwork is supported at most floor levels on stainless steel support angles with pistol bricks and mastic soft joints below. The brickwork loads are spread horizontally by proprietary serviced slip trip 2 slip membranes to obviate requirements for vertical movement joints. The slip membranes are fronted by mastic in the brickwork. The structure is designed to carry the loads imposed by the facade. These have been estimated at 2.5kn/m/2/ for the masonry and 1.0kn/m/2/ for the glazed curtain wall elements. (This will be confirmed during trade-contractor design of the windows and cladding). Rustications are contained in the lower parts of the brickwork. Glass blocks are used for feature relief at parapet level. Steelwork decorative handrail features finished with galvanising and polyester powder coating are fixed to the brickwork. Decorative stainless steel rails are fixed as part of the cladding system. The granite columns at base level are non-loadbearing and restrained back to the structure. The cappings and columns are built into the brickwork as are the band courses. 321
