ABSTRACT:
A brick panel wall construction is disclosed including a backing board for a brick panel which is formed of extruded plastic foam for moisture resistance and insulation. The wall construction includes a plurality of brick panels having plastic foam backing boards and a plurality of load bearing clip members that support the bricks which are secured to the backing boards. The load bearing clip members are sandwiched within the tongue and groove joints between adjacent upper and lower brick panels. Each load bearing member includes a protruding terminal lip that extends into the joint area between the bricks of adjacent panels. Mortar is packed or tuck pointed into the joint area to cover the protruding lips of the load bearing clips, and the clips become the support for the bricks that are secured to the plastic foam backing boards. Thus, the invention provides an improved insulating and moisture resistant backing board, and a direct mechanical connection of the bricks to the wall supporting structure such that the support for the bricks is not dependent upon the non-structural backing board.
