Cavity Wall Construction

Cavity Wall Construction is a masonry construction method consisting of two parallel leaves or wythes separated by an air space, wherein the outer leaf serves as a weather barrier and the inner leaf provides structural support, with the cavity preventing moisture transfer and allowing drainage and ventilation.
