-13- "TIE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR MASONRY VENEER" ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Conventional masonry support ties extend through insulation or sheathing and are secured to metal or wooden studs. In order to secure same, the insulation or sheathing material is often compressed so that suf- ficient support is provided. This lowers the insulation value and permits moisture penetration either of which may allow movement of the veneer and which may cause cracking or deterioration thereof. The present system provides a support or tie which may be applied on top of the insulation or sheathing and which will transfer the load directly to the face of the stud without compressing the insulation or sheathing. It comprises a length of channel having four pointed legs extending perpendicular to the plane thereof which assist in piercing the insula- tion or sheathing. The length of the legs are substan- tially equal to the thickness of the insulation or sheathing so that no compression takes place yet because the points of the legs engage the face of the stud, the tie support attached thereto enables the load of the masonry veneer to be transferred directly to the face of the stud.
