IG Welded Masonry Support
IG’s Welded Masonry Support (WMS) is a rigid masonry support system comprising of fixed brackets welded to a stainless steel angle support shelf.
WMS is designed and manufactured to engineers’ specifications on a project basis and offers two planes of adjustability on-site. The material content of the system is optimised to ensure the most economical solution is designed.
Application

Welded Masonry Support can support any outer leaf masonry material:
- Brickwork
- Fair-face blockwork
