Another Abey invention the Alligator Tie consists of three parts ā a backing plate and two jaws which act like alligator jaws to bite into the mortar bed. The tie itself whilst providing lateral support still allows for long term and thermal growth of the brickwork.
The Abey Alligator Ties are designed to keep walls vertical at all times. The āVā shape allows for normal brick growth and expansion, maintaining the control gap. The Alligator Tie can also be used to fix non load bearing walls to ceilings, still retaining that control gap and allowing for movement with the sliding action.
The need for proper planning and use of correct expansion gaps in masonry construction cannot be underestimated. Absence of ineffective control devices and poor workmanship practices can cause severe break-down in masonry constructions. The pressures a poorly constructed wall can exert are tremendous and can lead to disastrous consequences. To avoid structural damage, expansion gaps must be provided between intersecting concrete and masonry walls, columns and ceilings.
