Novabrik on Various Types of Structures
• Secure the Novabrik with #8 or
10 x 2 1/2” (64mm) corrosion
resistant screws at every fourth
course to each furring strip.
• Fasten Starter Strip with 3/16”
(5mm) concrete corrosion
resistant screws with a
mininum penetration of 1 1/4”
(32mm) into the concrete.
• Install 1” x 6” (19mm x 140mm) treated wood or furring strips covered
with a waterproof membrane on the corners. Fasten with 3/16” (5mm)
corrosion resistant concrete screws, with a minimum penetration into
the concrete of 1 1/4” (32mm), at 10” (250mm) c.c. and 2” (50mm) from
the inside edge of the form. Stagger the screws from one furring strip
to the other, preferably by fastening 5” (127mm) higher then the other
side.
• Install furring strips vertically at
16” (400mm) c.c. on the wall
with 3/16” (5mm) corrosion
resistant concrete screws
at 10” (250mm) c.c. with a
mininum penetration of 1 1/4”
(32mm) into the concrete.
• Install the corner blocks
according to the corner
installation section of this
installation guide.
• Fasten both corner planks
together with #8 x 1 1/2
(38mm) corrosion resistant
screws at 16”(400mm).
Novabrik on Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)
Before starting an ICF project, consult a professional engineer for structural
requirements.
Note: Limit the insulation thickness to a maximum of 2” (50mm) when
using Novabrik.
