Masonry Foundation Supports
I was recently asked about the maximum height for a 16in.x16in. masonry support? It is not a normal part of my inspections but I was told I could find the information in the 2006 IRC. Can anyone help with this code?

Secondly, I wanted to know if anyone is doing Risk Assessment? I was presented with the offer recently here in Atlanta?

Re: Masonry Foundation Supports
Robert,

I don't have IRC 2006 Maybe this will help.

You'll need to match material and exposure in the attachment.
