About this detail

A non-bearing concrete masonry unit wall terminates at a concrete slab at both interior and slab edge conditions. A one-inch gap is provided for slab deflection allowance, sealed with fire caulk as required by the architect. At the slab interior, embed plates measuring five-sixteenths by eighteen by eighteen inches are spaced at eight feet on center with four half-inch diameter by five-inch welded head studs, paired with three-by-three by quarter-inch angles on each side of the wall. At the slab edge, an embed plate measuring half-inch by sixteen by sixteen inches is anchored with four half-inch diameter by five-inch welded head studs, alongside an L eight-by-four by half-inch angle with a three-quarter-inch diameter threaded rod and quarter-inch washer. Vertical dowels with standard hooks match the vertical reinforcement, and additional continuous number five reinforcing bars are provided.
