Overview
A steel masonry angle is a structural component used to reinforce corners, edges, and connections in masonry construction. It provides additional support, durability, and stability to walls, openings, and load-bearing structures.
Why Use a Steel Masonry Angle?
- Enhanced Structural Strength – Reinforces weak points in construction.
- Corrosion Resistance – Available in galvanized or coated options.
- Load-Bearing Support – Essential for large openings and heavy loads.
- Versatile Application – Used in walls, lintels, and frame connections.
- Longevity – Withstands environmental stress and wear over time.
Common Uses
- Wall Reinforcement – Strengthens brick and block walls.
- Lintel Support – Provides structural integrity above openings.
- Frame Connections – Links steel structures to masonry.
- Industrial & Commercial Buildings – Used for heavy-duty construction.
