Joint Support System
Patented System
Easy to use system for ensuring rigid joints in runs of DPC. Fast surface fixing to save time and money on DPC joints.
Joints
When used as a ground level DPC, Plyload is simply sandwiched within the mortar joint positioned at 150mm i.e. two brick courses above external ground level.
When used as a cavity tray system in surface fix situations, the substrate should be primed using a suitable bituminous primer, a butyl or bituminous tape is then applied to the primed area prior to bonding the DPC to the tape.
A fixing strip is then used to secure the dpc which is mechanically fixed at 150mm centres. In brick/block situations where the cavity tray is being built-in, to both the inner and outer leaf, the tray is sandwiched within the mortar joints on each course.
Where joints are formed in the linear run, a joint support should be used to allow positive forming of the joint which is left in as part of the system.
