Masonry wall corners and intersections are reinforced with vertical and horizontal bars detailed per the CMU non-load bearing wall reinforcement schedule. L-shaped corner walls feature continuous reinforcing around the corner with standard lap lengths, supplemented by one additional number five vertical bar. Intersecting walls incorporate number four bars at eight inches on center alongside paired number five vertical bars with half-inch clearances. Short intersecting walls and isolated short walls maintain minimum two-foot-eight-inch and maximum four-foot dimensions with standard cell grouting.
