About this detail

Concrete masonry unit control joint located per architectural drawings with horizontal reinforcement terminating two inches from the joint. A one-half-inch diameter by four-foot-long smooth dowel spans across the control joint. Bond between the dowel bar and grout is prevented using grease or a plastic sleeve. At the contractor's option, masonry control joint units may be used in lieu of dowels, with vertical reinforcement detailed per the CMU non-load-bearing wall reinforcement schedule on each side of the control joint.
