Outline
 Review of adhered masonry veneers (natural stone,
manufactured stone and thin brick veneers).
 Adhered stone bond test program. (The why behind AMC
recommendations).
 Design and detailing of adhered stone and adhered thin
brick veneers above 10’ over wood-stud and steel-stud
structural backings.
 Design and detailing of adhered stone and adhered thin
brick veneers over exterior insulation.

Natural Stone
 Varying physical properties depending on type
(limestone, sandstone, etc)
 Compressive strength
 Modulus of rupture
 Freeze-thaw tests
Manufactured Stone
 Stone fabricated from light-
weight concrete or calcium
silicate to replicate all forms
and finishes of natural
stone.
 More consistent physical
properties than natural stone
(standardized by ASTM-
C1670).
