ᐅ Is it acceptable to place wall ties in the center or at the edge?

Hello dear forum community,

does anyone happen to know what the technical standards say about the positioning of wall anchors?
I understand that they should be installed at a right angle, but I couldn’t find any information regarding the horizontal alignment. The walls on the upper floor are currently about two-thirds built, so the wall anchors are still visible everywhere. In one spot, the edge layer is quite noticeable. The question is: is this problematic, negligible, or irrelevant?

Thanks and best regards

Tolentino

No visible issues.

Ok, I want to be 100% sure again, because the perspective makes it difficult to see clearly.
Is this acceptable for a non-load-bearing interior wall:

Red brick wall; a perforated support protrudes forward, next to it a blue metal piece.

Yes, it is bent into shape accordingly and then provides stabilization; for that, there is the 2kg (4.4 lb) hammer.

I had no serious technical concerns about it. However, this amount of misalignment would be reason enough for me to double-check whether the wall is actually positioned where planned. After all, the mason who built the main wall probably didn’t just randomly place the anchors while rushing.

Apparently, yes. The wall (or the room dimension) is correct.
