Back to menu Glass Blocks

At assembling glass blocks in LUX-PROF system we use a circumferential strip and vertical and horizontal couplings to use in the area of vertical and horizontal joints. Remember that LUX-PROF system is not a constructional system. Using it, it is required to use horizontal and vertical reinforcement and assembling ClaroGlass mortar.

1. We start assembling with a circumferential strip, which will form circumferential frame together with side and top belts. At this stage, it is import ant to check the vertical and level.	2. On reinforced circumferential strip, dilatated with dilatation frame and filled with assembling mortar we place the first layer of blocks. Between blocks we put a vertical coupling together with mortar.
3. After placing the first layer we put a horizontal coupling, we couple it to vertical couplings, place the reinforcement ladder, and then fill completely horizontal joints with assembling mortar. Finally we assemble vertical reinforcement interchangeably on the outside and inside of the construction.	4. We palace each layer of blocks in the same way, until reaching required height, checking all the time the vertical and level of glass blocks construction. We finish the construction with a circumferential strip filled with assembling mortar, with earlier placed dilatation tape and circumferential reinforcement. There is also a possibility to finish a block wall edge with glass or mirror tiles and PCV or UJ finishing strip or stainless steel matt or polish strip.
