MASONRY SUPPORT APPARATUS
FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to a masonry support apparatus for use in building construction.
BACKGROUND
FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to a masonry support apparatus for use in building construction.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Known methods for constructing a wall of brick and other masonry material in a building include laying brick on a metal support member located at the bottom of the wall. The support member can engage a series of support brackets which are secured by anchors to a rigid structure of the building, such as to a concrete foundation. As example of such a method is disclosed in US
patent no. 9,316,004.
patent no. 9,316,004.
[0003] Execution of known masonry wall construction methods is laborious, time intensive and requires a not insignificant amount of technical skill.
For instance, careful attention and experience is required to accurately space the support brackets such that they line up with connectors in the support member.
Further, it is time consuming to thread the anchors through the brackets and then care must be taken to correctly align each bracket while the concrete foundation is poured in place. If the angle of the bracket is not properly aligned, or the bracket is not properly spaced relative to adjacent brackets, then the support member may not engage securely, or at all, to the brackets. Furthermore, improperly installed anchors, brackets and support members make it challenging to install other parts of the wall, such as insulation material.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] Embodiments described herein relate generally to a masonry support apparatus for supporting a wall of masonry material in a building, to provide a thermal break between the wall and a concrete floor of the building, and to secure insulation material between the wall and the floor. The masonry VAN_LAVV\ 2508207\1 material can include but is not limited to brick veneer, stone veneer and concrete blocks. The masonry support apparatus is intended for installation on one or more floors of a building, and multiple pieces of the masonry support apparatus can be assembled to define a perimeter of a concrete foundation of the building floor. The masonry support apparatus can have a number of embodiments, including an elongated straight piece embodiment and a 90 degree corner piece embodiment.
100161 In this description, directional terms such as "upward", "rearward", "horizontal" and "vertical" are used to provide relative reference only and to assist the reader in understanding the embodiments described herein, and are not intended to restrict the orientation of any structure or its use relative to the environment.
100171 For convenient reference in this description, the masonry support apparatus described herein has a longitudinal dimension that is parallel to a length of a brick support member of the apparatus, a lateral dimension that is parallel to a width of the brick support member, and a vertical dimension that is parallel to a height of the brick support member.
[0018] Figures 1 to 4 show an elongated straight embodiment of the masonry support apparatus 10, and Figure 5 shows a 90 degree corner embodiment of same. The masonry support apparatus 10 comprises a brick support member 12, which has a horizontal section 14 and a vertical section 16 extending upwardly from a rear edge of the horizontal section 14. The length of the brick support member 12 can be varied, and for the example can be 10 feet for the elongated straight piece embodiment, and can be 2 feet for each leg of the 90 degree corner piece embodiment. The width of the brick support member 12 should be sufficient to fully support the typical 3 1/2 inch width of veneer and structural bricks, and for example can be 4 inches. The height of the brick support member 12 can be varied, and for example can be 4 inches. A suitable VAN_LAW\ 2508207 \ 1 material for the brick support member 12 is a 1/4" thick galvanized iron angle bar;
however, other suitable materials known to one skilled in the art can be substituted.
[0019] The masonry support apparatus 10 also comprises one or more insulation brackets 18 attached to the rear of the brick support member 12, and longitudinally spaced along the length of the brick support member 12 to matingly receive insulation blocks. Each insulation bracket 18 comprises a pair of longitudinally spaced angle members each comprising a lateral member 20 and a longitudinal member 22 joined together to form a 90 degree angle. Each lateral member 20 extends rearwardly from the vertical section 16 of the brick support member 12. The lateral members 20 have a longitudinally spacing sufficient to receive the length of an insulation block 24 there-between. Each longitudinal member 22 extends longitudinally towards the other from the rear edge of each lateral member 20, and terminates such that a longitudinal gap is defined. The pair of angle members 20, 22 of each insulation bracket 18 define a generally rectangular space that is sized to matingly receive the insulation block 24.
The angle members 20, 22 can be made of the same material as the brick support member 12, and for example, can be galvanized iron angle bars. The angle members 20, 22 can be welded in a vertical orientation to the rear of the vertical section 18 of the brick support member 12.
[0020] As can be seen in Figures 1(b) and 2, a pair of adjacent insulation brackets 18 can be spaced from each other so that an insulation block 24 can be matingly fit in between the insulation brackets 18. The insulation blocks typically vary from 1" to 6" in thickness, and the size of the brackets 18 can be adjusted accordingly.
[0021] The masonry support apparatus 10 also comprises at least one anchor for securing the apparatus 10 to a secure fixture in the building. In the illustrated embodiments, the masonry support apparatus 10 comprises multiple VAN_LAW\ 2508207\1 concrete anchors 26, with each concrete anchor 26 extending rearwardly from the longitudinal member 22 of each insulation bracket angle member. In some embodiments, the concrete anchor 26 can be a Nelson stud welded to the back side of the longitudinal member 22. The concrete anchors 26 are used to anchor the masonry support apparatus 10 to a building floor, e.g. by being embedded in the concrete forming the floor.
[0022] The insulation brackets create a thermal break between a brick wall constructed on the brick support member 12 and a concrete floor, and the insulation blocks 24 impede heat from escaping the building, whether by radiation, convection, or conduction. However, heat can still be transmitted relatively easily through the metal structure of the masonry support apparatus. To minimize conductive heat loss, the masonry support apparatus 10 can be configured with a minimal cross section across the thermal break, and in particular, the lateral members 20 of the insulation brackets 18 can comprise relatively thin vertical plates. Further, the longitudinal members 22 of the insulation brackets 18 can have a small surface area that minimizes contact with the concrete floor but which are still large enough to secure the insulation blocks in place.
[0023] Preferably, the brick support member 12, insulation bracket(s) and concrete anchors 26 are permanently attached together, e.g. by welding, to form a unitary structure. As will be described below, providing a unitary structure is expected to substantially simplify and quicken installation of the masonry support apparatus 10, compared to prior art masonry support products, which comprise separate components.
[0024] In use and referring to Figures 3, 4 and 6, multiple pieces of the masonry support apparatus 10 can be arranged end to end to form a mold for the concrete floor. The pieces of the masonry support apparatus 10 are positioned so that the concrete anchors 26 extend into the mold. A first row of insulation VAN_LAVV\ 2508207\1 blocks 25 are then inserted into each insulation bracket 18 and in between each insulation bracket 18. Concrete is then poured into the mold until the concrete anchors 26 are covered and a concrete floor 25 is formed. Once the concrete cures, the concrete anchors 26 are securely embedded into the concrete floor 25, and the insulation blocks 24 are securely in place. Then, rows of bricks can be laid onto the brick support member 12 in the manner known in the art.
[0025] In contrast to prior art techniques, installing the masonry support apparatus 10 is quick and simple. Because the masonry support apparatus 10 is a unitary structure, there is no need to perform multiple installation steps of setting support brackets, threading anchors, and mounting a support beam.
Furthermore, the unitary structure means that the masonry support apparatus 10 is always precisely aligned, such that brick and insulation blocks can be easily installed.
[0026] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. Accordingly, as used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms "comprises" and "comprising," when used in this specification, specify the presence of one or more stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and groups. Directional terms such as "top", "bottom", "upwards", "downwards", "vertically", and "laterally" are used in the following description for the purpose of providing relative reference only, and are not intended to suggest any limitations on how any article is to be positioned during use, or to be mounted in an assembly or relative to an environment. Additionally, the term "couple" and variants of it such as "coupled", "couples", and "coupling" as used in this description are intended to include indirect and direct connections unless VAN_LA1M 2508207\1 otherwise indicated. For example, if a first device is coupled to a second device, that coupling may be through a direct connection or through an indirect connection via other devices and connections. Similarly, if the first device is communicatively coupled to the second device, communication may be through a direct connection or through an indirect connection via other devices and connections.
[0027] It is contemplated that any part of any aspect or embodiment discussed in this specification can be implemented or combined with any part of any other aspect or embodiment discussed in this specification.
[0028] The scope of the claims should not be limited by the preferred embodiments set forth in the examples, but should be given the broadest interpretation consistent with the description as a whole.

[0019] The masonry support apparatus 10 also comprises one or more insulation brackets 18 attached to the rear of the brick support member 12, and longitudinally spaced along the length of the brick support member 12 to matingly receive insulation blocks. Each insulation bracket 18 comprises a pair of longitudinally spaced angle members each comprising a lateral member 20 and a longitudinal member 22 joined together to form a 90 degree angle.

[0020] As can be seen in Figures 1(b) and 2, a pair of adjacent insulation brackets 18 can be spaced from each other so that an insulation block 24 can be matingly fit in between the insulation brackets 18. The insulation blocks typically vary from 1" to 6" in thickness, and the size of the brackets 18 can be adjusted accordingly.
[0021] The masonry support apparatus 10 also comprises at least one anchor for securing the apparatus 10 to a secure fixture in the building.
