Architectural arch.

摘要

A system for forming a straight or curved architectural arch from bricks (11) interconnected by ties (41). The bricks are formed with bores (21,22) one above the other into which pins (44,45) forming part of the ties extend. The ties have rearwardly extending anchors (43) for connection to a structure. Each brick (11) has a central rebate (18,19) in each face which is open at the top. Two adjacent rebates form a recess into which grout can be poured.
