Kif miksi Ħajt bil-ġebel miksi

Pass 1: Ħarsa ġenerali għal Kif Miksi Ħajt fil-Ġebla

KENJA TAL-ĦIN:

• Jum 1: Prep the site and install the first course (Steps 2–10).
• Jum 2: Finish and cap the wall (Steps 11–18).

Pass 2: Kejjel il-Ħajt

To calculate the number of universal corners to order, measure the height in inches of each outside wall corner, as shown, divide by 16, and round up to the nearest whole number. You’ll fill the area between the corners with flat panels. To calculate how many you’ll need, multiply the wall’s width by its height in feet and divide the resulting area by 2 (each panel covers 2 square feet). Subtract the number of universal corners from the result, then add 10 percent to your order of flat panels. Add one universal corner to be safe.

Pass 3: Żebgħa l-qiegħ biex tipprepara l-ħajt

The panels must be installed above ground level, resting on a plastic support called a starter strip, so you’ll want to paint the wall below the strip to match the stone. Find a spray-paint color similar to the palette of your stone panels and paint the bottom few inches of the wall.

Pass 4: Installa l-Istrixxa tal-Istarter biex tħejji l-Ewwel Kors

Set the location for the starter strip, at least 2 inches above any soil. Here, the strip’s lip aligns with the top of a stair on the adjacent side of the corner. Fit your drill/driver with a 3/16-inch masonry bit and drill a pilot hole through a slot in the strip near the corner and into the wall. Drive in a masonry screw to secure that end, then use the 4-foot level to bring the strip to level, and mark a line, as shown. Drill pilot holes and fasten the strip in two or three more spots, maintaining level.

Pass 5: Neħħi t-Tab

Il-pannelli ċatti għandhom tab fuq kull naħa li tgħaqqad ma 'slots fuq pannelli ċatti maġenb xulxin iżda jeħtieġ li titneħħa minn kwalunkwe tarf li jifforma kantuniera. Serħ il-pannell wiċċu 'l fuq fuq wiċċ tax-xogħol u uża x-xafra tal-għodda 5-in-1 biex tħabbat it-tab, kif muri. It-tarf ċatt li jirriżulta se jagħmel għal kantuniera stretta.

Pass 6: Immarka l-Panel

Kull ġirja tibda f'kantuniera, bit-tarf lest ta 'kantuniera universali jikkoinċidi mat-tarf ta' panew ċatt (bit-tab imneħħija). L-ewwel, il-kantuniera universali tinqata 'f'żewġ biċċiet; it-tarf lest ta 'kull biċċa jibda kors, u t-tarf maqtugħ imur f'pannell ċatt. Għall-estetika, aqta 'l-kantuniera universali sabiex kull biċċa tkun twila mill-inqas 8 pulzieri. Jew, bħal fil-każ tagħna, aqtagħha biex taqbel mal-riser tat-turġien: Isserraħ panel ċatt fuq in-naħa ta 'ħdejha fl-istrixxa tal-istartjar, imbagħad dawwar il-kantuniera universali rasu 'l isfel, għaqqad it-tarf lest tagħha mal-riser tat-turġien, u ikteb linja ta' qtugħ. , kif muri.

Pass 7: Aqta 't-Tul

Serħ il-pannell immarkat wiċċ 'l isfel fuq wiċċ tax-xogħol b'bordijiet ta' ruttam taħtu fuq kull naħa tal-linja tal-qtugħ. Uża straightedge biex timmarka linja tal-qatgħa kwadrata tul l-iktar punt dejjaq tal-linja miktuba. Waħħal is-serrieq ċirkolari b'xafra tad-djamant segmentata u aqta 'tul il-linja, għaddejja mill-konkrit kif ukoll mill-istrixxa tal-imsiemer tal-metall. Kun żgur li tilbes nuċċalijiet tas-sigurtà, maskra tat-trab, u protezzjoni tas-smigħ.

Pass 8: Aqfel l-Ewwel Panel

Hold the cut universal corner against the wall, bringing its finished end flush with the face of the adjacent flat panel so that the two pieces form a 90° outside corner. Level the universal corner, and drill pilot holes through the nailing strip, as shown, directly through the metal if necessary, in at least two places. Fasten the panel with 1¼-inch self-tapping masonry screws.

Tip: Żomm il-bit tiegħek iddur biex tneħħi t-trab hekk kif terġa 'lura t-drill barra mit-toqba pilota, u b'hekk il-kamin tal-ġebel jiġi sfruttat fil-konkos.

Pass 9: Temm il-Ġirja

Kompli installa pannelli ċatti ta 'daqs sħiħ, aħdem tiegħek tul il-korsa. Meta tkun qrib it-tmiem, kejjel u aqta 'pannell parzjali biex timla t-tmiem tal-kors. Jekk il-biċċa maqtugħa għandha tab fuq kull naħa, uża l-għodda 5-in-1 biex tħabbatha. Waħħal il-biċċa fil-post, drill toqob pilota, u kamin mal-ħajt.

Pass 10: Installa t-Tieni Rokna

Use the cut half of the universal corner from the first course, positioned on the opposite side of the corner to stagger the joints. Slip the tongue on its bottom edge into the groove on top of the flat panel beneath. Position a flat panel, with its tab removed, atop the universal corner in the first course. Be sure it’s cut to a different length than the piece beneath, to offset the joints across the wall. Mark and drill pilot holes for the universal corner, secure it, and install the adjacent flat panel to complete the corner.

Pass 11: Allinja l-Panewijiet Adjaċenti

Work along the course, brushing out debris from the top groove to ensure that the panels fit together snugly. As you set each new panel, make sure that it’s aligned with the previous panel by nestling a ¼-inch metal rod in the groove along the top edge. The rod should lie flat and bridge the grooves in adjacent panels. If it doesn’t, use the 5-in-1 tool to shim the panel up, or back several screws out of the previous panel and adjust it. When the panels align, drill pilot holes and fasten them to the wall.

Pass 12: Ixxerred il-ġonot

If the end of a panel falls in line with a joint on any of the previous courses, you’ll want to cut down its length slightly to maintain staggered joints. Hold the panel in place and mark the nailing strip at a different length. Transfer the mark to the back of the panel, cut it to size, and fasten it to the wall.

Pass 13: Aqta 'Panewijiet biex Taqbel mal-Kors ta' Fuq

On the final course, you’ll need to cut down the height of the panels to fit, removing the nailing strip so that the stone reaches to the top of the wall. Rest a flat panel in place and scribe a cutline on the back at the height of the wall. Set the panel on a work surface, and use the circular saw to cut it to the proper height. You may want to cut your corner pieces to length first, then cut them to the proper height, as shown. Dry-fit the two pieces at the corner to check the fit.

Pass 14: Kolla l-Biċċiet

Neħħi l-pannelli tal-kantunieri u applika żibeġ dritti ta 'kolla tal-kostruzzjoni fuq in-naħa ta' wara ta 'kull biċċa f'ġirjiet vertikali, kif muri, sabiex l-ilma jkun liberu li jgħaddi wara l-pannelli u drain kif suppost. Issettja l-pannelli f'posthom fuq il-ħajt u aġġustahom biex joqogħdu sewwa fil-kantuniera.

Pass 15: Sink il-Qafliet

Biex tkompli tassigura l-pannelli maqtugħin, sib diversi spots fuq kull wieħed fejn tista 'tgħaqqad qfil b'mod inconspicuously fil-ġonot bejn il-ġebel. Żomm il-biċċa fil-post, drill toqba pilota mill-pannell u fil-ħajt. Drive fil-kamin tal-ġebel, għarqa r-ras taħt il-wiċċ tal-pannell. Għatti l-screwheads bil-caulk, iġbor ftit trab mill-mejda tat-tqattigħ, u daqqa fuq il-caulk tat-tnixxif biex jaħbu. Tista' tmiss kwalunkwe vojt bl-istess mod. Tispiċċa tinstalla l-pannelli fil-korsa finali.

Pass 16: Aqta 'l-Capstones

Agħżel capstone bosta pulzieri usa 'mill-fond tal-ħajt miksi tiegħek biex toħloq sporġenza. Kejjel u mmarka l-capstones biex joqogħdu tul il-quċċata tal-ħajt. Uża s-serrieq ċirkolari u x-xafra tad-djamant segmentata biex tnaqqas it-tul, kif muri.

Pass 17: Issettja l-Ġebla biex Tgħaqqad il-Ħajt

Ħidma ma 'sieħeb, erfa' l-capstones u nixxefhom fuq il-ħajt. Neħħihom u applika kolla tal-kostruzzjoni mal-parti ta 'fuq tal-ħajt u t-truf tal-fuljetta qabel ma tirrisettja l-ġebel; jew, jekk tippreferi dehra saħansitra aktar awtentika, poġġihom f'sodda tat-tikħil iebes. Issa agħmel pass lura u stagħġeb bil-ħarsa bla xkiel.
