About this detail

An exterior partition wall assembly consists of a seven-and-five-eighths-inch grout-filled concrete masonry unit exterior wythe with water-repellent coating and elastomeric paint, separated by a one-half-inch air space from an interior eight-inch metal stud partition. Horizontal joint reinforcing is specified at sixteen inches on center vertically within the masonry, alongside structural bond beams as required. The interior metal stud wall incorporates full-height thermal batt insulation of R-nineteen typical and is finished with five-eighths-inch gypsum board, achieving an expected overall wall R-value of twenty-two point two two. Overhead structural connections and bracing are coordinated per structural drawings.
