Composite flexible links are used in construction to connect the inner wall with the facing layer through insulation in a system of three-layer walls.
According to SNiP II-22-81 "Stone and masonry structures", item 6. 31: "Flexible connections should be designed with corrosion-resistant or corrosion-protected steels and also with polymeric materials".
This SNIP indicates that the use of non-corrosion resistant fittings, fittings made of ferrous metal and wire as flexible ties is dangerous, since their corrosion, leading to the collapse of the facing walls, affects the safety of the building. This condition is unsafe and living in the building is life-threatening due to the real possibility of collapse. It is time-consuming and costly to repair such a failing building, which is not economically viable.
