ABSTRACT:
A seismic construction system for use in anchored veneer wall constructions which utilizes an inner and an outer wythe includes a veneer anchor member which is attached to the vertical channel of an inner wythe, a tie member which is attached to the veneer anchor member, a clip member which is attached to the tie member and a continuous reinforcing wire secured to the clip member which is embedded in the mortar joint together with the clip member during the construction of the outer wythe. The continuous reinforcing wire, the clip and the tie member, once embedded in the mortar joint, form a rigid connection which provides a high degree of seismic protection yet facilitates rapid and cost saving construciton.
