Brick Laying and General Construction

Above: The finished detail of how the aliminium joint between my glass and the wooden framing covered by the waterproofing (black piece) is joint and sits behind a section of my outer brick facade.
Above: A pre construction setup of how all my pieces would be coming together for my final 1:1 detail in the Architecture workshops.
Above: A setup of how the brick ties will sit within the layer between two rows of bricks and be nailed/screwed into the brick below and the wall behind. (in planning ahead I have decided that the best of course of action would be not to screw the ties into the wooden framing at all for this project even though in practice you would mainly to allow it to be carried more easily. Instead to still portrait this idea I will allow a bit of spacing on the left of my brick wall on the wooden back frame to screw in one of the ties to get the point across that in its actual construction it would be nailed to the main supporting structure).
Above and Below: A row of brick ties being positioned into suitable places for later mortaring outside of the brick section. (Behind it is the waterproof barrier attached to the wooden framing).

  1. How do you screw the ties back without breaching the waterproofing?
