Sill7-1 Precast Concrete Window Sills

The reason why brick may be used for a window sill is because of cost. Preparing custom shapes takes longer than making standard types, and the process requires detailed, contractor-approved drawings prior to production. Tread shapes are manufactured to properly finish brick steps and other paving applications.

When required steel rebar or fiberbar is used in our sills for reinforcement. This eventually leads to spalling and the deterioration of the mortar between the bricks on the window sill. When steel re-bar in window sills don’t have enough concrete surrounding it, moisture can sometimes penetrate the concrete and oxidizes the steel re-bar. This is only a partial representation of our fabrication capabilities. In addition to their traditional use, these shapes can be used to add dimension to flat walls, rotated to form door and window jambs, or inverted to form cornice brickwork.

Mortar better surrounds wire when utilizing 9 gauge flush-welded side and cross rods, increasing resistance to shrinkage cracking. Footnote (3) assumes the bars are spaced at least 8” on center if the bars are closer the table will need to be adjusted.

The f’m is a variable that may be changed to meet your project requirements. Mortar better surrounds wire when utilizing 9 gauge flush-welded side and cross rods, increasing resistance to shrinkage cracking. Meet code and performance requirements with standard mill galvanized finish for interior walls not exposed to moisture and hot dip galvanized for exterior walls and interior walls exposed to high moisture or humidity.

This is especially evident when considering allowed tolerances for masonry units and joint sizes. All masonry wall costs were based on a straight run wall with no openings.
