Hi. In the picture, you see a half-brick wall on the left side of the thick line I've drawn on the brickwork. To the right of the thick line, is brickwork I've called the column. I was going to put angle iron at the corner, welded to struts that were going to be screwed into the column brickwork. But, I've changed my mind. I've now decided to fix the wall to the column using some sort of screw/bolt fixing system at points indicated by the dots. Then, I'll put a regular corner piece at the corner, that plasterer's use.
Okay, I think I may need screws or bolts about 200mm long. Why? Because the screw/bolt has to go through brick 100mm deep (thickness of the half-brick wall), then, I'm guessing, it needs to sink 100mm into the column brickwork.
Can anyone recommend the kind of fixing I'd need? Any comments? Thanks.
Edit1: I'd put plates on ends, as giant washers.
