6.1.3 The ambient temperature and that of the veneer must be 40°F or higher at the time of application.
6.2 Stud Construction Substrate:
6.2.1 Non-HVHZ:
6.2.1.1 Substrates include open studs spaced maximum 16” o.c., wood sheathing backed by studs spa ced
maximum 16” o.c. or existing exterior wall surfaces of plaster scratch coat, stucco or wood siding
backed by wood sheathing with studs spaced maximum 16” o.c.
Wood studs shall have a minimum specific gravity of 0.42.
Steel studs shall be minimum 20 gauge [0.033-inch (0.84 mm)].
6.2.1.2 Studs and/or wood sheathing shall be covered with a water-resistive barrier per FBC 2510.6.
6.2.1.3 Weep screeds (per FBC 2512.1.2) and code-compliant flashing shall be installed at the bottom of the
wall and at all horizontal terminations of the veneer.
6.2.1.4 A 2.5 lb/yd2 (1.4 kg/m2) galvanized, diamond mesh metal lath, or a 3.4 lb/yd2 (1.8 kg/m2), 3/8-inch-thick
rib, paper-backed, galvanized expanded metal lath (ASTM C847), or a 18 gauge [0.051-inch (1.3 mm)]
galvanized woven wire mesh (ASTM C1032) shall be installed in accordance with Boral Stone published
requirements atop the water-resistive barrier.
The lath or mesh shall be fastened to each of the wall studs maximum 6” o.c. vertically.
Fasteners for wood studs shall be minimum 0.120-inch diameter with a minimum 3/8” diameter head
galvanized nails or galvanized staples of sufficient length for minimum 1-3/8” embedment into the
studs.
Fasteners for steel studs shall be corrosion-resistant, self-drilling, self-tapping with a minimum 7/16-
inch diameter pancake head of sufficient length for minimum 3/8” penetration through the studs.
6.2.1.5 A ½-inch to ¾-inch scratch coat of Type N or S mortar shall be applied over the lath or mesh and
allowed to cure for not less than 48-hours prior to veneer application. The scratch coat shall be
moistened prior to application of the mortar setting bed.
6.2.1.6 Apply the mortar setting bed to area not exceeding 10 ft2. The veneer is then lightly but firmly tapped
into the mortar setting bed to ensure bond while the mortar remains soft and pliable. Alternatively,
the veneer may be ‘back-buttered’ with each unit pressed into place.
The mortar setting bed, whether applied to the scratch coat or in a ‘back -butter’ fashion, shall be of a
thickness and consistency to allow mortar to be squeezed out around all edges of each veneer unit to
assure a full bond.
All joints shall be tooled.
