DETERMINING STONE QUANTITIES AND TECHNICAL NOTES

In order to place an order, up to three components must be measured individually.

  1. WALL STONE - Multiply length x height and subtract openings.  Divide irregular areas into small rectangles.
  2. CORNER STONE - Measure the lineal feet of all outside corners. For every 10 lineal feet of corners used, subtract 5 square feet of wall stone.
  3. FLAGSTONES - For flagstones on the hearth or porch top, multiply the length x width to obtain the horizontal area.
  4. CAPS - Design wall/column thickness to a width compatible to the Alluriam caps.  The caps should extend beyond the built wall by 1-1/2" to 2" on all sides to allow for the thickness of the wall stone.

             INSTALLATION

              Dry Joint                     Stick and Grout
  1. Apply flashing and 15# felt paper to waterproof the wall BEFORE applying the stone.
  2. Nail or Staple galvanized metal lath.
