Furnish and install cultured stone veneer on four (4) columns as per drawings. Approximately 400 S.F. of stone to be installed.
Installation to consist of installing one (1) layer of 15lb felt paper over sheathing, fastening metal lath over felt paper to studs using galvanized screws with lath washers and applying mortar scratch coat to metal lath.
Once scratch coat has dried, stone is to be adhered using mortar in a random “ashlar” pattern. Manufactured 90 degree corner pieces are to be used at outside corners.
Once stone has set, joints are to be grouted using natural gray mortar and tooled to a final finish.
