H. Lightly press panel reinforcing into the mortar bed
along the entire length of the panel so that it is
completely embedded in the mortar. Where more
than one reinforcing strip is needed, overlap
them six inches.
Note: Panel reinforcing is always
installed in the same horizontal joints
as the panel anchors.
Note: If using 12" x 12" nominal size glass block, panel
anchors and panel reinforcement should be installed on
top of every row, except the top row.
I. Proceed with the remaining rows as previously
described.
Reminder:
• Install expansion strips along the jambs as you
continue.
•Check periodically to ensure that your panel
remains level and plumb.
•Use a polyfoam brush to press squeezed out mortar
back into the joints.
Note: If your project is not framed at the top, install

instructions. If your project is framed at the top, continue
with Step J.
Note: Installing the last row will be different than the
previous rows in that you will be installing vertical panel
anchors.
