Before the energy code requirement for continuous insulation came in force, the shelf angles for brick veneer support were anchored directly to the spandrel beam in a frame structure and the insulation was provided toward the outside of the shelf angle. With the requirement for continuous insulation, the insulation is sandwiched between the shelf angle and the spandrel beam. How then is the shelf
anchored to the spandrel beam?
What will be an ideal response?
The shelf angle is welded to a steel plate assembly that is anchored to the spandrel beam at centers, approximately 4 ft on center.
