## Anchor pull testing confirms in-place capacity when the backup or fastener substrate is variable or when required by the Engineer of Record. {note}
+## The field anchor pull-test program shall be specified based on the variability of the backup or fastener substrate and any requirement of the Engineer of Record.

## Corrosion is the dominant durability failure mode for veneer anchorage: the tie is buried in mortar that wicks moisture and, in some exposures, chlorides, and a corroded tie loses cross-section until it can no longer transfer wind load. {note}
−## The corrosion-protection level shall be selected for the building's exposure zone, not for the lowest first cost, because re-anchoring a failed veneer requires removing the masonry. {note}

−### Hot-dip galvanized carbon steel anchors and ties shall be limited to interior or protected exterior service away from chloride exposure.
−
−### Type 304 stainless steel anchors and ties shall be used for general exterior service, including humid climates and freeze-thaw exposure.
−
−### Type 316 stainless steel anchors and ties shall be used in coastal, marine, de-icing-salt, and other chloride-laden exposures.
−
−### Galvanized carbon steel shall not be specified for coastal or chloride-exposed environments, where ASTM A153 zinc coatings corrode and lose section.
−
−## The exposure zone is a single project-wide decision that drives every anchor, tie, and fastener material call-out. {note}

## Thermal performance at the anchor penetration is a service condition where the veneer is over exterior continuous insulation, because each metal anchor that bridges the insulation is a thermal short. {note}

## Flashing and weeps are the drainage system that makes an air-space veneer work: flashing collects water that reaches the cavity and directs it out, and weeps are the openings through which it leaves. {note}
−## The single most common field error is placing weeps a course or more above the flashing, which lets water pond on the flashing and back up into the cavity; weeps must sit directly on top of the flashing. {note}
