INSTALLATION

and lintels per plan.

2. If stone is being applied in hot or dry weather, the back of each piece should be
moistened with a fine spray of water or a wet brush to adequately prevent excessive
absorption of moisture from the mortar. If being installed over concrete, masonry or
scratch coat substrate, the substrate surface area should also be dampened before
applying mortar.

3. Stucco scratch coat must be sealed and wet backrolled prior to installation of veneer.

4. Using Premixed Type N or S mortar or component from Table 2 mix to firm, moist
consistency. Mortar that is too dry and crumbly will not provide proper bond. Mortar that
is too wet will be weak and messy.

___________ Table 2-Proportions for Mortar

Mortar Portland Masonry Type Hydrated Lime Aggregate
Type Cement N or
or Blended Lime Putty
Cement
N 1 -- Over ‘/2 to 1 ‘/4 2 ‘/4 to 3
-- 1
-- 2’/4t3

5. Scratch coat first then apply mud to stone and set in place.

6. In order to obtain the most natural look, joints should be as narrow as possible, average
should not exceed ‘A” in width.

7. All brick and stone shall be consistent in size and color, free of flaws, chips, scars and
installed plumb and level. Grout finish shall be consistent with no visible holidays.

8. Masonry shall be installed in a manner as to adhere properly to existing surfaces.

9. Use flashing where necessary to maintain a water-tight condition.

10. TRADE CONTRACTOR shall plan the placement of stones to minimize trimming and
cutting to maintain the natural looking rounded shapes.

11. If application requires corner pieces apply these first. Corner pieces have a long and a
short leg. Alternate these in opposite directions.

12. After the corner pieces are in place, apply flat pieces working toward the wall center.

13. Place the individual stones close together creating uniform joints between them. Cut and
trim as required to achieve consistent width in the mortar joints. Then trim and fit small
pieces into any remaining voids.

14. When applying Ledge stone types keep joints as small as possible to maintain a natural
look and install from the bottom up.

15. Strike joints deeply being careful not to expose the back edge of stones.

16. If additional mortar is required, use a grout bag to fill in joints. Care must be taken to
avoid smearing mortar on surface of stone. Never use a wet brush or wire brush.

17. When the mortar joints have become firm or thumb-print dry (setting time will vary

 depending on wall surface and climatic conditions), they should be pointed up with a
wood stick or metal jointing tool. Rake out excess mortar, compact and seal edges
around stones.

18. Masonry, once completed, shall be washed by hose water only. No wire brush needed.

19. TRADE CONTRACTOR must remove any excess mortar, paper, wire or string line so as
not to interfere with other trades’ applications.
