tying in extension walls
I have to build an aircrete wall and cavity against a brick party
wall. The party wall is 9" thick up to around 2 metres high, where it changes into a single skin on the neighbours half of the party wall, and next-doors ceiling joists fully penetrate this skin. I filled in the gaps around these joists with foam when I demolished my old out- house. I intend to tie in a new wall that is 90 degrees from the party wall using a wall starter system. What I need to do is modify the upper section so it is effectively a 9" wall in order to properly isolate next door from the cavity. I probably cannot chop out bricks from her wall in order to form a standard bond with regular headers etc. So what is the best way of tying in a new skin to to create a 9" wall to the satisfaction of the BCO ? Bearing in mind that this new skin will then further become one side of a cavity wall (i.e. it will be tying in 2 directions). Thanks, Simon. |
