1) Before
starting please make sure to have enough quantity of Plastic spacers
and Rectangle wood pieces（in
size of 5cm width and 0.4cm thickness with quantity same as the
number of rows）.
 
2) Following the size of construction area to prepare the wooden
frame.
3) Prepare
the Special Adhesive mixed by Cement, Sand and gumwater before
installation and use it within one hour to remain its adhesiveness.
4) Lay the
adhesive on side face of the brick and start the brick installation
piece by piece from the down corner of the wood frame. Make sure
that all 4 corners of each brick are screwing with a plastic spacer.
  
5) To
enable a better fixing for side bricks and end bricks of the
construction wall, the plastic spacers need to be cut as L-shape or
T-shape before screwing in.
6) After
installation of each row, a rectangle wood piece could be inserted
into the upper gap of the plastic spacer to be a horizontal ruler to
make sure that each brick of the same row is properly installed.
Wood pieces are not necessary to be removed after installation since
they will be hidden by adhesive and glass cement.
7) After
installation of the whole construction, please take off the outer
part of spacers and remove the overmuch adhesive in the gaps.
8) 8~12
hours after the dry and hard of the Adhesive, a colored glass cement
could be used to fill in the Glass brick gaps to enhance the
intensity of construction and to decorate the looking.
9) Two
Tips:
If the
Hollow Glass Brick will be installed with Metal materials e.g.
Aluminum, stainless steel etc., a 5mm thickness of Insulated layer
is requested to be a compartment to avoid Metal rust caused by
cement surface connection.
For
exterior Wall installation use, White Cement #425 is requested to be
the main ingredient of the adhesive to guarantee no leakage of
water.
10) Calculation Methods:
- Plastic
spacer quantity ≈ Glass brick quantity
- Inner
size calculation of the wooden frame:
a、Length
of a single brick + 1cm (thickness of the spacer)
→A
b、A
* brick quantity of each row
→B
c、B
+ 1cm →C
d、“C”
means the inner length and width of the wooden frame. |
