21 <br /> 4.7.4 Joining adjacent Wallforms <br /> Always make certain that the male and female ends of the wallforms mate properly. They are <br /> designed to fit together tightly, assuring maximum insulation value and fire resistance. Fasteners <br /> (nails,screws,construction adhesive, etc.) are generally not needed to join wallforms. There are <br /> occasions when gapping occurs between wall forms that will require the use of a galvanized <br /> fastener, or adhesives to close gaps. Later,when walls are erected it is recommended to foam any <br /> gaps>3/16"with a non expanding urethane foam adhesive on both inside and outside surfaces. <br /> 4.7.5 Cutting the last Wal[form in each course <br /> Build the walls in from the corners. In most cases the last wallform in each course will need to be <br /> custom cut to fit due to the slight growth in the wall as you stack the wallforms end-to-end <br /> (approx. 1/2-3/4"every 20') . The best method is to cut off the end of the filler wallform, shorten <br /> the wallform,then re-attach the end using screws. This returns the structural strength of the <br /> modified wallform. Proper attention to this detail will assure that the cut wallform will hold up <br /> when the forms are filled with wet concrete and that the insulated side is sound. <br /> Step I:measure gap to fill. -� <br /> 11.1111.111111.111.10 <br /> Step 2: cut off the end of the filler wallform' <br /> Step 3: Cut the wallform to the appropriate length(remove insert, cut separately) <br /> Step 4:Re-attach the end of the wallform using 33"galvanized or ceramic coated screws: <br /> Step 5:Install in wall FJ- <br /> Mar <br /> ShelterWorks General Application and Technical Information[GATI)version 2.5 <br />
