Cut out existing mortar joints (both bed and head joints) and remove by means of a toothing chisel or a spec

7、ial pointers grinder, to a uniform depth of to 19 mm (3/4-inch), or until sound mortar is reached. Take care to not damage edges of existing masonry units to remain. B. Remove dust and debris from the joints by brushing, blowing with air or rinsing with water. Do not rinse when temperature is below

8、freezing. 3.2 JOB CONDITIONS A. Protection: Protect newly pointed joints from rain, until pointed joints are sufficiently hard enough to prevent damage. B. Cold Weather Protection: 1. Tuck pointing may be performed in freezing weather when methods of protection are utilized. 2. Comply with applicabl

9、e sections of “Recommended Practices for Cold Weather Construction“ as published by International Masonry Industry All Weather Council. 3. Existing surfaces at temperatures to prevent mortar from freezing or causing other damage to mortar. 3.3 INSTALLATION OF TUCK POINTING MORTAR A. Immediately prio

10、r to application of mortar, dampen joints to be tuck pointed. Prior to application of pointing mortar, allow masonry units to absorb surface water. B. Tightly pack mortar into joints in thin layers, approximately 6 mm (1/4-inch) thick maximum. C. Allow layer to become “thumbprint hard“ before applyi

11、ng next layer. D. Pack final layer flush with surfaces of masonry units. When mortar becomes “thumbprint hard“, tool joints. 3.4 TOOLING OF JOINTS A. Tool joints with a jointing tool to produce a smooth, compacted, concaved joint. /B. Tool joints in patch work with a jointing tool to match the exist

12、ing surrounding joints. / /3.5 REPLACEMENT OF MASONRY UNITS A. Cut out mortar joints surrounding masonry units that are to be removed and replaced. 1. Units removed may be broken and removed, providing surrounding units to remain are not damaged. 2. Once the units are removed, carefully chisel out t

13、he old mortar and remove dust and debris. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-10-08M 04 05 31 - 3 3. If units are located in exterior wythe of a cavity or veneer wall, exercise care to prevent debris falling into cavity. / B. Dampen surfa

14、ces of the surrounding units before new units are placed. 1. Allow existing masonry to absorb surface moisture prior to starting installation of the new replacement units. 2. Butter contact surfaces of existing masonry and new replacement masonry units with mortar. 3. Center replacement masonry unit

15、s in opening and press into position. 4. Remove excess mortar with a trowel. 5. Point around replacement masonry units to ensure full head and bed joints. 6. When mortar becomes “thumbprint hard“, tool joints. 3.6 CLEANING A. Clean exposed masonry surfaces on completion. B. Remove mortar droppings a

16、nd other foreign substances from wall surfaces. C. First wet surfaces with clean water, then wash down with a solution of soapless detergent specially prepared for cleaning brick. D. Brush with stiff fiber brushes while washing, and immediately thereafter hose down with clean water. E. Free clean su

17、rfaces from traces of detergent, foreign streaks or stains. Protect materials during cleaning operations including adjoining construction. F. Use of muratic acid for cleaning is prohibited. - - - E N D - - - Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-
