The Award Winning  Brick Brace Safety Tool

 SAFER & SUPERIOR RESULTS GUARANTEED

  To Brace masonry, the force required upon the safety tools is estimated at 700N, for a safety factor of x 3 the force is 2.1kN.

A recommended torque of 40Nm produces a force of 3.28kN which is more than adequate even allowing for some fall off in force as the tool beds in.

This torque is also readily achievable on site and was also used in the test via a ratchet spanner. It also provides a force well below that to crush the end faces of the brick. When bricks were removed from below there was no distress whatsoever, no visible movement or cracking.

-

  The fully tested Brick Brace safety tool increases the unknown variable strength of masonry by creating a force of 40Nm which through testing is proven to be strong and stable enough to prevent collapse.

What Is A Load-Point

A 45 degree angle on block work, a 35 degree angle in a brickwork stretcher bond and a 25 degree angle in a Flemish or English bond from both ends of the opening, carrying up to the central perpendicular joint where both angles meet is the location of a load-point, see photo no7.

When an opening is made within an existing wall and a load point is intact, the triangle of brickwork above the opening is the only masonry that could collapse, therefore the only masonry that requires support.

This small triangle of masonry is also what tongued prop attachments were designed to support when fitted 900mm apart.

Upon larger openings within a typical two storey residential property and any of the 3 points of the triangle do not remain, this law changes and all of the weight of the storey height above will rest back over the length of the opening (including roof loads, when they apply) due to the masonry above not arching.

 

This can weigh up to 10 times more than just the smaller triangle and is why tongued prop attachments are so easily overloaded upon wider openings.

Fit the fully tested Brick Brace safety tool that imitates a load-point, as shown within the drawing below to safely reduce the weight of the load back to the small triangle of masonry and minimise the amount of impeding props fitted with tongued attachments required without dangerously overloading.

The Brick Brace Safety tool, weight charts and proven strategies address all the main causes of minor and major collapse during masonry alterations.

Mr S. Dunaway

 (Builder From Surrey)

  Top quality product.

After taking the time to read and understand what the Brick Brace has to offer, I can now appreciate the impact this system can have on improving the safety of structural alterations. 
After all structural alterations are the only general construction based procedures where NO training or advice is offered to any tradesman.  
For me, Brick brace is not just a product; it has provided an understanding of the task, with clear guidance on the limitations of all the equipment.  
I also received very helpful advice and instructions from the guys at brick brace regarding my own project. 

I challenge you all to find another company so invested in your own safety when it comes to structural alterations!

Where To Use.

Single tool/s

1 Designed to create openings up to 1,250mm (5 brick Lengths), supporting the ten bricks within the triangle of masonry above when a load-point is intact.

2. Designed to re-instate a load-point; Insert single tools through a broken triangle to re-instate a load-point which reduces the weight of the load and stabilises the structure.

3. Insert to stabilise a structure and to reduce the risk of collapse; fit a maximum of three bricks apart in ceme nt mortar and a maximum of two and a half bricks apart within a lime or weak mortar mix;

Below shows an example of why the Brick Brace should also be used to hold the unsupported brickwork when eccentrically propping, especially within lime mortar masonry.

The Brick Brace counter acts all of the hidden problems of eccentrically propping.

The Missing Link To Safer & Superior Results

We have studied temporary masonry support for many years, more than anyone before us. Our fully patented method of strengthening masonry before alterations take place is the further preparation required for safer and superior results, GUARANTEED!

-

The tongued prop attachment was designed in the mid 1980’s when openings were smaller and a cavity only 50mm but due to changes in construction design a typical cavity has now doubled to 100mm and 150mm+ upon newer properties for further thermal value and open plan living accommodation has also vastly increased the opening and steel sizes within a typical residential extension.

Attempting tasks which require longer and wider steels with welded top/bottom plates for wider cavities and still only using the out of date prop attachment is not safe as the working load is reduced when over extending even further from the wall.

We  provide instructions and a correct procedure to help, teach and influence the majority to change their bad habits, to help prevent the same needless reoccurring accidents during alterations due to the changes in construction design  and to  ensure future generations are taught safely & correctly .

-

(Example below shows all of the masonry supported correctly over a 2.475m opening which would require two tongued prop attachments with Acrow props spaced at 750mm centres if the Brick Brace wasn't used)

All existing propping methods rely on the unknown lateral strength of the masonry to work safely.
