ABSTRACT:
A template for laying a plurality of bricks including a substantially planar and rigid sheet having a plurality of support pins projecting therefrom at a 90.degree. angle in a predetermined pattern for supporting a plurality of bricks. This pattern includes a first plurality of support pins being disposed along a first horizontal line at predetermined spaces corresponding to the length of a brick, and a second plurality of support pins being disposed along a second horizontal line at predetermined spaces corresponding to the length of a brick. The first horizontal line of support pins is parallel to the second horizontal line of support pins, and the first horizontal line is spaced from the second horizontal line by more than the height of a brick. In addition, the support pins in the first horizontal line are offset from the support pins in the second horizontal line. The template also includes a first plurality of holes formed in the sheet for receiving nails, screws or rivets for attaching the sheet to a fixed surface; and a second plurality of holes formed in the sheet for receiving an L-shaped wall tie for attaching the sheet to the bricks being layed.
