	3.5	PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION OF THIN VENEER STONE
		A.	Stone must be water saturated, surface-dry when placed. Water down the stone 24 hours prior to placement until saturated. Reapply water to keep stone saturated as required by weather conditions.
		B.	Coordinate placement of reinforcement, anchors and accessories, flashings and other moisture control products supplied by other sections.
		C.	Clean all built-in items of loose rust, ice, mud, or other foreign matter before incorporating into the wall. All ferrous metal built into the wall shall be primed or galvanized.
		D.	If required, provide temporary bracing during installation of masonry work. Maintain bracing in place until building structure provides permanent support.
	3.6	INSTALLATION OF THIN VENEER STONE
		A.	Install thin veneer stone and mortar in accordance with ACI 530.1/ASCE 6/TMS 602 Specifications for Masonry Structures.
		B.	Maintain masonry courses to uniform dimension(s). Form vertical and horizontal joints of uniform thickness.
		C.	Pattern Bond:
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Coordinate the following paragraphs with the materials specified and with the bond required. Edit as required.
			1.	Lay stone with the bedface, splitface or weather edge exposed. Take care to avoid a concentration of any one color to any one wall surface.
			2.	Maintain an approximate 1/2 inch (12.5 mm) joint, as stone allows.
			3.	Do not use stacked vertical joints.
			4.	Lay out work in advance and distribute color range of stone uniformly over total work area.
		D.	Placing and Bonding:
			1.	Dampen substrate as required to reduce excessive suction.
			2.	Apply mortar in accordance with PCA Plaster (Stucco) Manual to a thickness of 1/2 to 3/4 inch (12.5 mm to 19 mm) Do not spread more than a workable area of 5 to 10 SF (.46 to .93 SM) so that mortar will not set before stone is applied.
			3.	Lay thin veneer stone in a full bed of mortar with full head joints.
			4.	Work from the bottom up laying corner pieces first.
			5.	Remove excessive mortar as work progresses.
			6.	Do not shift or tap veneer stone after mortar has achieved initial set. Where adjustment is required, remove mortar and replace.
			7.	Isolate top of veneer stone from horizontal structural framing members and slabs or decks with compressible joint filler and sealant in accordance with Section 07900.
		E.	Joining Work: Where fresh masonry joints partially set masonry.
			1.	Remove loose stone and mortar.
			2.	Clean and lightly wet surface of set masonry.
			3.	To avoid a horizontal run of masonry rack back 1/2 (12.5 mm) the length of stone in each course.
			4.	Toothing is not permitted.
		F.	Joints:
			1.	Lay stone with an approximate 1/2 inch (12.5 mm) mortar joint, as stone allows.
			2.	Tool joints when "thumb-print" hard with a round jointer slightly larger than the width of the joint.
			3.	Trowel-point or concave tool exterior joints below grade.
			4.	Flush cut joints to be finished with a soft brush only.
			5.	Retempering of mortar is not permitted.
			6.	Use non-corrosive stone shims as required to maintain uniform joint thickness.
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Flashings, weeps and wall penetrations require special attention on drawing details. Locate and detail properly.
		G.	Flashing:
			1.	Clean surface of masonry smooth and remove any projections, which could damage flashings.
			2.	Place flashing on a bed of mortar.
			3.	Cover flashing with mortar.
			4.	Provide weep vents at head joints placed every 16 inches (406 mm) along the first course immediately above flashing or as recommended by weep vent manufacturer.
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Verify control and expansion joints are correctly indicated and detailed on Drawings. Control joints shall be designed in accordance with National Concrete masonry Association TEK 10-2B for control joint design and locations.
		H.	Control and Expansion Joints: Keep joints open and free of debris. Coordinate control joint in accordance with Section 07900 for sealant performance.
		I.	Sealant Recesses: Provide open joint 3/4 inch (19 mm) deep and 1/4 inch (6 mm) wide, where masonry meets doors, windows and other exterior openings. Coordinate sealant joints in accordance with Section 07900 for sealant performance.
		J.	Cutting And Fitting: Cut and fit for chases, pipes, conduit, sleeves, grounds, and other penetrations and adjacent materials. Coordinate with other sections of work to provide correct size, shape, and location.
	3.7	FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Include for testing of mortar and grout when assurance of mix quality is critical to the project.
		A.	Test mortar and grout in accordance with Section 01110.
		B.	Testing of Mortar Mix: In accordance with ASTM C780, Annex A4, for mortar aggregate ratio and ASTM C 780, Annex A5, for mortar water content.
	3.8	PROTECTION
		A.	Protect installed products until completion of project.
		B.	Cover the top of unfinished stone masonry work to protect it from the weather.
		C.	Touch-up, repair or replace damaged products before Substantial Completion.
	3.9	CLEANING
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Some methods for removing hardened mortar involve the use of methods and materials such as strong acid, and overaggressive sandblasting, and high-pressure cleaning, which are harmful to stone masonry units and are not recommended by Krukowski Stone Co., Inc.
		A.	Promptly remove excess wet mortar from the face of the stone as work progresses. Clean stone masonry with a stiff nylon brush and clean water only. See Krukowski Stone Co., Inc recommendations for cleaning of stonework if it is necessary to clean with chemicals. These recommendations are located at www.krukowskistone.com.
