A concrete masonry unit wall connects to a concrete slab on grade foundation. Vertical reinforcing dowels match the wall reinforcement and extend down with ninety-degree standard hooks into the thickened slab edge. Two continuous number five reinforcing bars run longitudinally within the thickened footing. The lap splice length follows the structural schedule, and the detail provides options for both double curtain and single curtain wall reinforcing configurations.
