Attaching a Deck Ledger to a Home Through Brick or Masonry Veneer — the BVLZ Solution

Brick or masonry veneer has traditionally posed a problem to homeowners and contractors seeking to attach a deck to a home without removing large portions of the veneer or siding. No longer is that the case, thanks to the innovative BVLZ brick ledger connector from Simpson Strong-Tie. In this post, Rachel Holland, P.E., an R&D structural engineer at Simpson Strong-Tie, explains the research and insights that went into testing and developing this revolutionary connector.

When a homeowner with a brick veneer home wants a deck, how do you safely add outdoor living space? Did you know that the building codes do not allow for the brick veneer to carry any load except for the weight of the brick above it?

Because of these code provisions set forth in the IRC and DCA6, it’s difficult to attach a deck to a structure without either removing large portions of brick, as is required by some products available on the market, or building a freestanding deck. But even a freestanding deck comes with its own set of challenges. Many times the deck posts obstruct downstairs windows and doors. In addition, ensuring the new deck post footing is in undisturbed soil can be challenging. Often, that soil is located much deeper than one would guess, especially if there is a basement, because the soil adjacent to a house is disturbed.

The riddle of how to safely add a deck to a brick veneer home has been difficult to solve for a long time. After hearing the challenges our customers face, we set out to develop a new solution that would bypass the brick completely and attach the deck safely to the structural framing behind the brick veneer. We spent more than a year researching and designing multiple iterations of various prototypes in order to develop a part that would meet our criteria. From all that trial and error, however, the BVLZ brick ledger connector was born. There are many field variables that made the design of this new product very challenging, but it was that much more rewarding when we were finally able to hit upon the solutions. For example, across the country, existing airspaces between the veneer and the framing vary, brick sizes also vary, and the list of variables goes on. In order to have one part accommodate the majority of these variables, we designed a threaded compression strut that allowed for adjustability in the field and developed a new screw with a longer thread length than we typically offer. There are additional challenges involved with the fact that this connector will attach to, and depend on existing framing. By orienting the screws at an upward angle, we were able to impose a tension force at the top of the rim, and then the compression strut stops the ledger from bearing in on the brick. These two components act in a truss-like manner. Because cross-grain bending is unpredictable, we needed to ensure that the existing framing conditions could support this type of load.

Assembly testing of the BVLZ.

We determined allowable loads for the BVLZ using the lowest of the following values:

Lowest ultimate load of three tests (or average of six) with a safety factor of three

Average load at ⅛” deflection

Calculations per American Wood Council National Design Specification for Wood Construction (NDS)

We tested the BVLZ in accordance with AC13 both as a single connection and as a component of a deck system. Here you can see one of the assembly tests with the deck on the right. On the left is an existing interior floor system modeling when floor joists are parallel to the rim board. We discuss testing of wood connectors in more detail in this blog post. For the BVLZ, we evaluated the shear and withdrawal capacity of screws into the rim board with single fastener testing in accordance with AC233.

BVLZ free-body diagram

We calculated the capacity of the Strong-Drive® SD Connector screws for transferring the load from the ledger into the BVLZ connector, and the shear and withdrawal capacity of the Strong-Drive SDWH Timber-Hex screws that transfer the load from the BVLZ ledger plate into the rim board. We also calculated the bearing of the compression strut on a solid rim and wood structural panel (WSP) wall sheathing in front of the rim. The BVLZ is code listed in IAPMO UES ER-280.

From all of the testing and calculations that were performed, we found that the minimum governing load for an engineered design is the bearing capacity of the compression strut on the rim or WSP wall sheathing. In order to maximize the load we needed to increase the diameter of the strut — but again there was a fine balance to uphold, because we wanted to allow the end user to drill reasonably sized holes in the brick veneer. The BVLZ allows the deck to attach to the structure without bearing on the veneer. Through calculations and multiple assembly tests, we confirmed that the strength of the interior framing and fastening was critical to performance. Regardless of how strong we made our part, the framing of the existing building determines the maximum deck load that can be supported by the BVLZ. Therefore, the make-up of the existing structural framing is critical. This connector requires contractors to do some investigative work up front. They need to look into what exists behind the brick. Is there WSP sheathing on the wall? How thick is it? Looking further, where is the rim board of the house? What size is it? What material is it? How is the rim attached to the rest of the framing? Is there interior floor sheathing? How thick is it? How is it attached to the framing? Is there access to the rim from the interior of the home? Answering these questions for each project is essential to understanding whether and how the BVLZ should be used.

Once all the initial work is done, we provide you with the BVLZ allowable downloads so that an engineered design can be completed. If you are following the IRC requirements for deck building, we provide four different prescriptive spacing tables to help you space the BVLZs on your deck ledger.

Prescriptive spacing table without wood structural panel (WSP) on the wall

Prescriptive spacing table with wood structural panel (WSP) on the wall

Prescriptive spacing table with a reinforced rim board and without wood structural panel (WSP) on the wall

Prescriptive spacing table with a reinforced rim board and wood structural panel (WSP) on the wall

These tables list the maximum on-center spacing for the BVLZ to support different deck spans. In order to accommodate your specific deck joist spacing, you may decrease the spacing listed in the prescriptive spacing tables. The tables require that the existing framing meets the IRC framing requirements. Assuming the required pre-work is completed and the installation learning curve has been met (see our installation instructions here to help you get started), this new deck ledger connector is a code-listed solution that allows homeowners the opportunity to build their dream deck and enjoy outdoor living space without infringing on the view or patio space downstairs.

Journal - Architectural Drawings: 14 Sections Revealing Kengo Kuma’s Craft-Based Designs

Architects: Showcase your next project through Architizer and sign up for our inspirational newsletter.

Kengo Kuma’s architecture is defined by pattern and craft. Establishing his own practice, Kengo Kuma & Associates in 1990, the firm has since has designed architectural works in over twenty countries. Working together with his team, Kuma aims to design architecture which naturally merges with its cultural and environmental surroundings as gentle, human scaled buildings.

Kuma is constantly in search of new materials to replace concrete and steel, investigating new approaches for architecture in a post-industrial society. This can be readily seen in the firm’s section drawings, where ideas of spatial experience and craft come together. Mastering repetition, layering and pattern, the architecture is an exploration into new ways of building and working together with craftsmen. The following projects showcase some of the firm’s section drawings to tell a story of how renowned architecture shapes daily life.

Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center, Asakusa, Taito, Japan

Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center opened in April 2012, as a contemporary building of timber and glass. The center is a striking structure taking the appearance of a stack of separate wooden buildings that have been piled up on top of each other at different angles. Inside, the facilities include an information counter, an exhibition space, a café, and an observation deck. The section drawings reveal how seemingly regular floors are given form and identity.

V&A Dundee, Dundee, United Kingdom

The design of V&A Dundee is intended to act as a connector between the river and the city, creating a frame through which the river can be seen from the city and vice versa. The building acts as a gate through which the city can once again access the world, in a way which reflects on Dundee’s successful history of trade. The building’s form creates dramatic spaces with an impressive main hall forming a public indoor plaza, and areas that overhang the external public plaza.

China Academy of Art’s Folk Art Museum, Hangzhou, China

The folk art museum stands in the campus of China Academy of Arts in Hangzhou. The site was formerly a tea field that formed a hillside. The team’s point was to design a museum from which the ground below can be felt, by continuing the building’s floors that follow the ups and downs of the slope. Planning is based on geometric division in the units of parallelogram to deal with the intricate topography.

CONNECT ONE, Chuncheon-si, South Korea

The team’s aim in CONNECT ONE was to create an open and liberated space for learning and communications by integrating the building and the hills around it. The entire space spreads by forming terraces, which are connected with diagonal rooms for communication named “community voids”, which facilitate lively discussions among people who could take seats in the grand stairs and enjoy panoramic view of the nature.

Yusuhara Marche, Takaoka District, Japan

Yusuhara Machino-eki is a complex of a market selling local products and a small hotel with 15 rooms. Combining the two different functions via atrium, a new core facility was born for the town of 3,900 in the mountains. As an attempt to respect this history, the team used thatch as the material, which is deeply related to “Cha Do,” which worked as a medium to connect the past with the present.

Yusuhara Wooden Bridge Museum, Takaoka, Japan

This is a plan to link two public buildings with a bridge-typed facility, which had been long separated by the road in between. The museum technically bridges communications in this area. It functions not only as a passage between the two facilities but also as an accommodation and workshop, ideal location for artist-in-residence programs.

Daiwa Ubiquitous Computing Research Building, Tokyo, Japan

This research building was constructed for the university’s new field on ubiquitous computing. The team’s aim was to break away from conventional images of campuses that consist of hard materials such as concrete, metal or stone, and to instead design a soft building made with wood and earth. At the center of the building comes an organ-like aperture covered with soft membrane. The opening generates a gentle and organic flow of light and wind in the campus, which is otherwise dominated by the strict grid arrangement.

Odunpazari Modern Museum, Eskişehir, Turkey

Odunpazari Modern Art Museum is to exhibit the owner’s collection of Turkish modern art. The Museum is planned in the city of Eskisehir where the owner was born and raised. The project is to realize the owner’s ambition to promote Turkish art and to make cultural contribution to the city of Eskisehir. The stacked and interlocked boxes are designed in various sizes to create diverse scales of exhibition space inside. Boxes at the ground level offers opportunities for large scale art works and installation.
