    Part 1                                        ● Use additional ties next to reveals

    1. Recommendation for starting corners

    Locate the bending line on the sheet and fully
    bend the sheet back onto its flat face. Now
    bend the sheet the other way until the pods
    are touching. Repeat this a couple of times un-
    til the sheet stays in the required position. Al-
    so, the sheet can be bent to suit corners that
    are not 90° such as some conservatory walls
    etc.                                    Raised pod fits against
    Note: The external masonry is ALWAYS built   insulation
    against the flat face of the sheet, with the
    raised pods firmly touching the insulation.

    2. When cutting will intersect the pods

    Use two cuts or cut off the end of the sheet.  Allow
    enough flat sheet to take the joining strip. Always
    ensure that there is enough space after making the
    cut for the joining strip to be inserted.
                                                        Ensure enough flat area for
                                                             the joining strip
     Note: To prevent having to pierce the panels, the
     wall ties are fixed each 450mm board course to                 Additional wall
     coincide with the horizontal SureCav joints. Cut               ties 225mm max.
     the joining strips to meet the wall-tie and then               from structural
     continue the other side with the off-cut.                      openings


    3. Wall ties adjacent to window
        and door frames

    Additional wall ties at 450mm vertical centres
    within 225mm of all openings are recommended.

    This procedure will prevent slots having to be
    made in the SureCav sheet on each course of
    block-work when building away from a doorway
    or window reveal.
