ABSTRACT:
An adjustable brace for a wall constructed from concrete masonry units or brick or precast. The brace has a inner member with a first section, a second section, and a center section connecting the first and second sections and having a connection for attaching the inner member to the wall. The brace also has a outer member, having a first section, a second section, and a center section connecting the first and second sections of the outer member and a connection for attaching the outer member to the inner member. The center section of said inner member and the center section of the outer member are connected to the wall such that the inner member and the outer member may rotate independent of each other about the connection. When the outer member is attached to the inner member, the first and second sections of the outer member are also placed directly against the wall. Extendable arms, located in the first and second sections of the inner member and in the first and second sections of the outer member, may be extended to provide support to additional areas of the wall.
