required to project minimum of one inch from back of
unit.
B. Adhesive: Solvent based construction adhesive
specifically formulated for cast stone installation.
C. Setting Mortar: Cement mortar manufactured specifically
for thinset vertical tile or masonry bonding and
incorporating bonding agent in cement mix.
NOTE ** Delete one or both of the following two paragraphs.
Joint sealers are only required if the joints
between pieces of ornaments must be sealed, such as
in an outdoor installation. Grouting or pointing
might be used if joints between pieces are to be
concealed, as if the installation was monolithic.
The latter procedure requires that the pointing
mortar be carefully matched to the unit color,
unless the whole installation is to be painted or
otherwise finished.
D. Joint Sealant: Elastomeric type compatible with
cementitious materials.
E. Grouting and Pointing Mortar: One part ASTM C 91 non-
staining cement, one part ASTM C 207 Type S hydrated
lime, and four parts clean, washed ASTM C 144 sand.
NOTE ** Delete one or both of the following paragraphs if
not required.
1. Color to match units using inorganic pigments.
2. Obtain approval of Architect before proceeding with
grouting or pointing.
NOTE ** Delete following paragraph below if the units'
integral color will be the final color. Use the
following paragraph to specify the field finish to
be applied. If necessary, refer to Section 09900 -
Paints and Coatings.
F. Paint: _______________.
NOTE ** Delete the following paragraph if units are to be
painted.
G. Sealer: Silane sealer recommended by unit manufacturer.
H. Patching Materials: As required by unit manufacturer.
I. Cleaners: Powdered soap and water; do not use acid or
prepared cleaners unless specifically approved by unit
manufacturer.
PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 INSPECTION
A. Verify that conditions that would prevent proper
installation and adhesion of units have been corrected.
3.2 INSTALLATION
A. Install units true, plumb, and level, in accordance with
manufacturer's installation instructions and shop
drawings.
B. Install units using experienced and qualified stone
masons or tile setters.
C. Prepare substrates to receive units as indicated in
manufacturer's instructions.
1. Clean substrates of oil, paint, dust, and debris.
2. Make surface smooth, level, sound, and capable of
permanent adhesion.
D. Units to be set into adjacent finish (rather than mounted
on surface): If units are not available at the time the
finish is to be installed, install a plug (a piece of
foamboard or wood 1/2 inch (13 mm) larger than the unit
to be installed) in the unit's location. After finish is
complete, remove plug and complete unit installation.
E. On Concrete, Masonry, and Portland Cement Stucco: Set
units with mortar:
1. Drench units not already thoroughly wet with clear
potable water and remove excess water prior to
setting.
2. Place anchor pins firmly in place and fill holes with
mortar.
3. Set each piece in full bed of mortar (100 percent
coverage) with vertical joints and holes in substrate
completely filled.
F. On Exterior Insulation and Finish System: Use EIFS
manufacturer's adhesive to attach units to insulation
board.
1. Use anchor pins long enough to penetrate through
insulation board into substrate.
2. Place anchors firmly in place and fill anchor holes
with adhesive.
G. On Interior Gypsum Board and Plaster: Attach units with
adhesive, 100 percent coverage; set anchor pins into
holes in substrate.
H. Maintain maximum 1/4 inch (6 mm) joint between units.
I. If units will not rest on permanent mechanically-anchored
supports, provide temporary vertical support prior to
setting.
J. After setting, brace each unit with a diagonal support
pressing unit into substrate.
K. Do not remove temporary supports until after full cure of
setting material.
NOTE ** Delete any of the following joint treatment
paragraphs that are not applicable. Coordinate
with the materials specified in PART 2.
L. Seal joints between units and between units and adjacent
materials.
M. Point joints between units and seal junction between
units and adjacent materials.
3.3 CLEANING AND REPAIR
A. Immediately after setting, clean face of each unit to
remove splashed mortar and mortar smears.
B. Protect units from splashing mortar and damage due to
other work. Immediately remove foreign matter splashed
or rubbed on units.
C. Repair chipped and damaged units, using skilled mechanics
and manufacturer-provided patching materials and
directions. Repair so that no obvious repairs or
imperfections show other than normal, minimal color
variations when viewed with the unaided eye under good
typical lighting.
D. Clean units only when necessary, by scrubbing with a
bristle fiber brush and specified cleaner. Do not use
acid or prepared cleaners unless approved by
manufacturer. Rinse thoroughly with clean running water.
NOTE ** Delete the following sealer if units are to be
painted.
E. Seal surface of units with specified sealer.
1. Be sure cementitious setting materials have
thoroughly cured (approximately 30 days).
2. Clean and dry surfaces.
3. Follow sealer manufacturer's instructions.
4. Apply to inconspicuous test area first to determine
application rate.
