The MAGNUM fireplace requires a standard refrac- tory fire brick liner be applied to the interior of the firebox.Fire brick must be a minimum thickness of one and one-eighth inch 4:waimi,(11/8").The MAGNUM fireplace is available in six sizes:twenty-eight inch(28"),thirty-six inch(36"),forty-two inch ���(42"),forty-eight inch(48"), sixty inch(60")and seventy-two � inch(72"). A� All units have a thirty-eight inch(38")rough opening , ' height before fire brick.The only parts which differ among the00 available sizes are width related pieces:the base plate,firebox back wall,front and back smoke dome components,and the smoke dome top plate.All units use the same side wall pieces. The DM 54 chimney system is a dual module refrac- tory chimney system.The basic chimney consists of an outer casing block and an inner liner with a fourteen inch(14")di- ameter flue hole.The chimney components are field assembled using Earthcore Mortar to glue the components together. The DM 54 chimney system also includes an offset ' chimney block component,used to create offsets to the verti cal run of the chimney.A brickledge component is available, ��' /�� designed to support chimney top brick veneer finishes. 7 Prefabricated masonry chimney termination caps are also avail- able. / The various MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney components will be described and illustrated in the follow- ing pages.Close attention should be paid to each component i // group's specifications and installation requirements as de- scribed \ in this manual.

IIIIIIII'l A Earthcore mortar is mixed with clean water to a smooth, workable texture(without lumps or dry pockets)of a"toothpaste" i/ consistency.This mixture is suitable for application onto Isokern / components by using a masonry grout bag supplied with the unit. Attention should be paid that the mortar mixture is not too 141 thin or runny,as this will not allow the mortar to reach its maximum bonding strength. Earthcore mortar is squeezed from a grout bag onto the contact surfaces of the Isokern components as they are fitted to- 11111117 FIGURE 6 gether. I It is important that a 1/2"bead of mortar on all the compo- nents'contact surfaces is applied at about 1/2"in from all edges of the contact surface of the component. (Figure 7) When setting the next component onto the mortared con- tact surface of the first component,some mortar should squeeze out along the face of the entire joint as a sign of complete and proper sealing of the joint. ECI On broader contact surfaces it is advisable to apply several `4 MORTAR additional 1/2"beads of the Earthcore Mortar to the area to assure 1proper sealing of the joint. fir Properly mortared firebox and smoke dome assembly requires approximately 5 gallons(dry measure)of Earthcore mortar. Broken Components: Components broken into 2 or 3 pieces can be repaired by using Earthcore mortar along the break line as the component is set into place.Components broken into multiple small pieces should be FIGURE 7 discarded and replaced. Leveling and Aligning Components: Be sure to assemble all Isokern components level and flush with adjoining components. ", Earthcore mortar is not intended to create a mortar joint of any thickness for leveling purposes.Therefore,leveling and alignment adjustments are made by the use of small plastic shims supplied with the unit.(Figure 8) The shims can be inserted under a component to level and align it with adjacent Isokern components.Be sure to re-grout any and all gaps resulting from shim insertion to maintain components to full bearing. SHIM IF REQUIRED Notes: TO ACHIEVE 1.Do not mix Earthcore mortar with spirits or anti-freeze agents.

RECEIVED 09/21/2018 14 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT LAssembly Instructions - (cont.) 3.Earthcore mortar can be troweled over the face of a joint where it has squeezed out while setting components.It is not ECI intended that the exposed faces of the Isokern components be MORTAR completely covered with the mortar. BASE PLITE Installation: %r Step 1: Set the MAGNUM base plate in a full bed of Earthcore Mortar flat on a proper concrete support foundation. (Figure 9). Do not set the MAGNUM base plate so that it is in span.Level FIGURE 9 the MAGNUM base plate by floating it in a bed of Earthcore Mortar to full bearing against the underlying noncombustible I support surface. Notes: If the design preference is for a"flush hearth"(fireplace floor flush with the room's floor),the base plate can be omitted from the assembly and the firebox walls built directly on the concrete support slab.The fire brick floor of the firebox is then I, 1f` ' set directly to the concrete support slab.This makes the fireplace I �I finished fire brick floor approximately one and one-half inches ' I �//%1\I / I 1-1/2 above the topof the concrete support slab(Figure 10). /// II If the design preference is for a raised hearth(floor of ��� II the fireplace elevated above the room's floor),then the MAG- III / I` NUM base plate can be set on a noncombustible platform that FIGURE 10 II / 41 is built up to the desired raised hearth height on the concrete support slab. \' 1l When calculating raised hearth height be sure to allow for the three inch(3")thick base plate plus the one and one half Ij inch(1-1/2")thick fire brick floor in addition to the height of the platform.Whether a flush hearth is preferred or a raised hearth, the combustible floor on front of the fireplace must be covered with a noncombustible hearth extension set tight against the fire- / place front and extending at least 20 inches out from the finished fireplace and at least 12 inches beyond the finished sides of the I� 1� , fireplace opening. (Figure 11) I �I For all"raised hearth"construction where concrete I/11I blocks are used to create the raised platform,it is necessary to use the MAGNUM base plate.Be sure to mortar the concrete J II / I block platform together.CMU used for base plate support 1 ` I should be rated ASTM 90. \ ` I / I` *1 Step 2: Set the first course of the firebox back wall and side `I o walls into place. \' 1II , It may be convenient to dry set the first course of side FIGURE 11 wall and back wall into place on the Isokern base plate and then to trace their position on the base plate with a pencil.

' Properly placed,one lintel is to sit on top of the firebox 414 111, ., back wall and flush with it;the other lintel sits flush with the front of the firebox,spanning the firebox opening.These com- ponents both sit on their narrow base so that their beveled face 1 NI • points down and into the firebox interior. (Figure 15) The damper side pieces are designed to sit on the Ifirebox side wall between the front lintel and the back lintel. I (Figure 14) '/ Each of the damper side pieces is designed specifically for its own side of the unit.When properly set,each damper side piece fits flush with the outside face of the firebox sidewall so that its interior bottom edge aligns with the interior angle of the firebox side wall that it sits on.(Figure 14) Be sure to mortar all damper beam components to the top surfaces of the firebox.

Step 5: Continue stacking the remaining three courses of - - back wall.Be sure to reverse the positions of the 38-1/2" M67 and the 22-1/4"M67 in each successive course.In this way,the butt joint where the two M67 components meet are staggered from course to course. The overall width dimension at the back of the firebox should be 73-1/2"including the sidewalls. FIGURE 28 (Figure 29). Step 6: Steel angle 4"x 6"x 5/16",one required, 73-1/2"long which must span the top of the MAGNUM Model 60 firebox opening. This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal po- sition.To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top Side component where the angle is to sit.This notch should be wall cut approximately 5/16"deep.The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component(at both the left FIGURE 29 and right hand walls)and run to a point 4"back toward the firebox(Figure 30). The steel angle sits in this notch.The six inch leg 21[ of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be lo- cated in alignment with the front of the firebox.The ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls(Figure 30). Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 7:Damper support(front&rear),Part M69,four required,to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 35-1/2"in length from the long point of the bevel FIGURE 30 REMOVE THIS PIECE cut to the un-cut square end. (Figure 31).The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper Support ti7',. For best results a 15°bevel angle is suggested. . J Step 8:Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 38"with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support.The bevel angle must be at the same 15 DEG.ANGLE angle—in this case, 15 degrees-to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 7 (Figure 32). FIGURE 31 Step 9: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces(one with the long point at the top of the piece and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece)together as pairs. The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be mortared together and set into the steel ��•'� angle from Step 6(Figure 33). 15 DEG.ANGLE RECEIVED FIGURE 32 REMOVE THIS PIECE 09/21/2018 22 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 60" (cont.)

Step 20: Set the smoke dome sloping side walls,part 34,in place between the front and back smoke dome arrangements at their proper locations at each end of the smoke dome. (Figure 42). 53 Y/" The overall width dimension at the top of the smoke dome should be approximately 53-1/2 to 54".(Figure 43) Note: The MAGNUM model 60 is designed to operate with two flues.The top of the smoke dome allows for the place- ment of two Isokem Modular Masonry DM 54(14 inch I.D.) 1` chimneys or two solid fuel listed metal chimneys of the appropriate size. ti Step 21: Smoke dome top plate small,part M77,two re- quired,must field cut to fit. Each of the two smoke dome top plate small,part FIGURE 43 M77,will sit side by side on the smoke dome assembly,meet- ing at the centerline of the smoke dome as a butt joint.The top plate,as standard,comes with a recessed edge(or,a thick- ened center).The recessed edge is approximately 3/8"and is intended to be the bottom face of the top plate. Each of the two top plate pieces must first be cut in width in order to fit the overall smoke dome.Each top plate is to have its width cut by 5".The cut edges must then become the butt joint of the two top plates when set into place (Figure 44).Therefore,the width cuts for each top plate must be on opposite edges of each piece. The un-altered end of each top plate sits at the end of the smoke dome assembly and rests on the smoke dome slop- ing side wall. FIGURE 44 At the recessed edge on the underside of the un-altered ends of each of the two top plates,the thickened part of the top plate will need to be ground down flush with the recessed edge of the top plate so that the underside of the in top plate does not ride high on the smoke dome sloping side wall. Place the two top plate small components on top of the second tier smoke dome arrangement so that they meet at the centerline of the smoke dome. The outlet hole sits closer to the back of the smoke dome.The smoke dome top plates should sit flush with the front and back of the smoke dome. 10111111- The top width dimension of the completed smoke dome should measure approximately 53 1/2"-54".Each top plate small has a width cut dimension of approximately 27". Two of the top plates butted together should equal the smoke dome top width dimension of approximately 54". The top plates may have some overhang at the ends of the top plate assembly,which is acceptable. (Figure 45) FIGURE 45 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 25 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 72" The MAGNUM Model 72 is a custom unit made of standard parts that are cut and fitted together in the field.The following cut and assembly instructions identify the parts by name and by part num- ber,the quantity required,the field cut dimensions for each modi- fied component and the placement of each part in the assembly. \\Note:At all component placement,be sure to mortar all contact • surfaces with Earthcore Mortar.Check for complete sealing of each �� contact joint while assembly progresses(see"General Isokern FIGURE 46 Assembly Instructions"on page 14 of this manual for mortar infor- ' 1II mation and instructions). I II Step 1:Base plate,Part M91,two required.These pieces are used I "as is",without any field cutting required. I III Set the four M91 base plate components on an appropriate masonry foundation and positioned exactly where the firebox is to i,' sit. Set the two pieces so that the centerline of the grouping is a butt joint(Figure 46).This makes for square ends at both the left and I right ends of the grouping. FIGURE 47 The overall length of the base plate assembly should mea- sure 85 1/2"and 28"inches deep. % I' Step 2: Side wall,part M60,eight pieces required,used"as is". The firebox side wall components are used without modi- fication.The side wall pieces stack four high on both the left and right hand ends of the base plate arrangement(Figure 47) The stack of four firebox side wall components will be assembled in conjunction with the firebox back wall components described in the following steps. FIGURE 48 Step 3:Back wall,part M67,eight pieces required,four pieces to be"field modified". Cut the tongue off one end of each of the four M67 back wall components.After cutting,each of these four cut pieces should measure 38 1/2"from the cut end to the shoulder of the un- altered end(Figure 48). Step 4:Back wall,part M67,four pieces required,to be "field modified". Cut one end of each of the four M67 back wall compo- nents.These four cut pieces should measure 34-1/2"from the cut 3/7/�„ end to the shoulder of the un-altered end(Figure 49). FIGURE 49 Step 5:Build the MAGNUM Model 72 firebox by setting a 38 1/2" M67 Back Wall(from Step 3)on the base plate with its tongue end interlocked into the firebox side wall positioned at the end of the base plate(Figure 50). - P — The square cut end of this 38 1/2"M67 back wall compo- nent should sit flush with the back of the base plate with its cut end past the centerline butt joint in the base plate arrangement — — (Figure 50).

FIGURE 51 Step 7: Steel angle of 4"x 6"x 5/16",one each required, 85 1/2"long. 85 1/2" A 4"x 6"x 5/16"steel angle needs to span the top of the MAGNUM Model 72 firebox opening. T This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal position.To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top side wall component where the angle is to sit. This notch should be cut approximately 5/16" deep.The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component(at both the left and right hand walls)and ' run to a point four inches back toward the firebox (Figure 53). FIGURE 52 The steel angle sits in this notch.The six inch leg of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be located in alignment with the front of the firebox.The 10111111011 ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls. (Figure 53) +♦ Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 8:Damper support(front&rear),part M69,four required,to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper 111111111 supports to 44"in length from the long point of the bevel cut to the un-cut square end.The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper supports(Figure 54).

Step 9:Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 41 1/2"with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support.The bevel angle must be at the same angle in this case, 15° -to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 8 44* angle 55). Step 10: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces(one with the long point at the top of the piece /01 and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece) together as pairs. FIGURE 54 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 27 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 72" (cont.) The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be set into the 4"x 6"steel angle from Step 7 (Figure 56). Since the inside corner of the steel angle is rounded,it is a good idea to round the bottom front corner of the damper support to match the steel. With the bevel cut ends of the damper support pairs meeting at the middle of the firebox,the bevel joint should be an even and good fit.The damper supports overall installed length should be 85 1/2". FIGURE 55 Notes: A.Do not join the damper supports with a butt joint.The bevel joint discussed above is the REQUIRED type of joint for the damper support. B.The bevel angle of 15°is a convenient angle and is given as a suggested angle.The angle of bevel could be different just so the angles cut in the adjoining damper supports join. C.The angle of the bevel cut could be greater just so the bevel cut in each damper support joining pair is the same angle in order to have a good fit at the joint.

Lateral Support for DM 54 Chimneys: Where the DM 54 chimney is built up along an exteri- or wall the vertical chimney system should be connected to the structural wall system at a minimum of four foot(4')intervals. This connection can be made using 18 gauge strap ties (Simpson Strong Tie CS coil strap,or equal). Starting on one side of the DM 54 chimney,at four foot(4')intervals up the structural wall adjoining the chim- ney,connect one 18 gauage strap tie to the structural wall with two,three inch(3")#8(minimum)wood screws or masonry anchors,as appropriate. Next fold the strap around the three exposed sides of the DM 54.Connect the strap to each of the three DM 54 faces with two,one and one-half inch(1-1/2")long masonry anchors, such as"Tapcon"or"Titen"screws.Fasten the strap back to the structural wall with two three inch(3")#8(minimum) wood screws or masonry screws,as appropriate. (Figure 92) Where DM 54 chimneys are built up from the interior walls the DM 54 chimney outer casing block is to be laterally braced at ceiling and roof penetrations. Pressure treated two inch(2")by four inch(4") blocks,set at each side of the flue between the trusses or rafters and fastened to the pre-engineered roof trusses or rafters with two 16d common nails at each end,provides lateral support, parallel with the framing.

An offset chimney block can be set as the first flue component on top of the MAGNUM smoke dome. When building offset sequences it is necessary to support the %%CO '�'o third offset block in the sequence and every third offset block thereaf- ter.When using only one or two offset blocks no additional support is FIGURE 94 required. Offset sequences are best when built as low as possible in the chimney run to maximize performance. Do not make support columns of brick,stone or wood.All support col- umns must bear onto proper noncombustible foundations. 1 i A A Isokern Offset Chimney Block Installation: \ Isokern offset chimney blocks are stacked in a stair stepfash- ion with each successive block overhanging the previous offset block I' \'1 I by three inches(3"),allowing the flue to rise at an angle of thirty(30°) degrees off of vertical. (Figure 94) 11 When building offset sequences check the interior flue I II I alignment as each offset block is set to avoid creating overhanging I ' I ledges on the inside of the flue. Such internal overhangs will inhibit flue drafting. IIII I g III Each offset block is to be set fully in a bed of Earthcore \ Mortar,completely sealing each offset block to the underlying II I component. I Offset chimney block sequences can be built to shift the chimney run to the left,right or to the rear of the firebox/smoke dome III assembly. Offset blocks can be set in a spiraling rotation,thus moving the FIGURE 95 chimney to a point that is diagonally away from its starting point. ••• Offsets to the Left or Right: When offsetting chimneys to the left or right of the firebox it is not pos- sible to build a support column directly under the third offset block. To create proper support,construct a support column against // \\ the firebox from bearing up to the level of the smoke dome.Bridge from the column over to bearing on the smoke dome with two pieces of four inch(4")by four inch(4")by five-eighths inch(5/8")steel angle. (Figure 95) On the steel angles build a masonry or steel support column up to the underside of the third offset block in the sequence.(Figure 95) NOTE: For offset chimney block sequences that clear the side wall of the firebox below,it is allowable to support the first offset block that clears the the firebox side wall and then to proceed with sup- ports at each third offset block thereafter.(Figure 96)FIGURE 96 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 47 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.)

II If the offset sequence is to move to the left then,starting I „f from the right side of the temporary DM 54 outer casing measure left ward to the far face of the overhead obstruction that needs to be =`I bypassed by the vertical chimney run. For accurate measuring drop a plumb line down from the far face of overhead obstruction to the level of the top of the smoke dome assembly.Measure from the far side of the temporary DM 54 outer -k casing to the plumb line. This measurement,taken in inches and divided by three I (three inches of horizontal travel per offset block)gives the total num- ber of offset blocks needed to accomplish the required travel distance. To calculate the height that the offset block sequence will require,take the total number of offset blocks needed to accomplish the travel distance(described above)multiplied by 6".This number is ===1 the height(inches)that the offset sequence will require. j When establishing the"far face"of the overhead obstruction,be sure that the DM 54 chimney blocks can run straight ---f to chimney termination without further overhead obstruction since a === second offset sequence is not allowed.(Figure 101) I • Be sure that there is sufficient space beyond the"far face"of the overhead obstruction to accept the DM 54 chimney's outer casing dimension of 21 1/2". - j_- Support all offset sequences down to bearing as previously - - I- discussed on page 47. � L-- FIGURE 99 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 49 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.)

Lateral Support for Isokern Brickledge Chimneys: Once the DM 54 chimney and brickledge are assembled and after the intended masonry veneer has been installed on the brickledge,be sure to brace the chimney following the guidelines on page 45 of this manual for Lateral Support of DM 54 chimneys. 41.ErEIVED 09/21/2018 51 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Load Capacity - Brick Ledge - - It is relatively simple to calculate the total physical load on the brickledge resulting from the physical weight of applied veneers built to code height,however,calculation val- ues for load to the brickledge due to wind are site specific and based on local variables such as wind speed zone,exposure classification,eave height and roof pitch of the structure,as well as height of chimney mass exposed to wind. E Important:The total load delivered into the brickledge is job 1-'� �,-� specific and will be the sum of: (1)the physical load from veneers,plus (2)the load due to wind. ISOKERN The total of physical load and load due to wind must BRICK LEDGE I 1 not exceed ninety four hundred(9400)pounds. Notes: Calculation of wind load requires the services of a local structural engineer who can evaluate wind load for the _ specific structure and site in question. Do not subject the brickledge to unequal loading when applying veneers.Build veneers equally on all four sides of the brickledge. Brickledge Veneer Finish and Flashing Details: When applying brick,stone or other masonry veneer to the Isokern brickledge standard good building practices for masonry veneer work should govern weather-proofing details and the placement of flashings. / /\( A typical flashing detail would be to field fabricate an aluminum or galvanized sheet metal flashing,approximately thirty-two inches(32")square with a twenty inch(20")square hole in it,to serve as an inner flashing. (Figure 106) Place the inner flashing on the first DM 54 outer cas- ing block that fully clears the roof line.Keep the flashing to I I about a one-half inch(1/2")lap onto the top of the outer casing --- ---- block.The twenty inch(20")square hole in the flashing should fit to the outside of the alignment grooves on top of the DM 54 outer casing.Continue the DM 54 chimney up to the required termination height. FIGURE 105 Once the masonry veneer is in progress the inner flashing is set into a horizontal joint in the veneer at a level above all other roof deck flashings,chimney-to-roof flashings Load Capacity for DM 54 Brickledge: and counter flashings.Weep holes should open to the outer face of the veneer at vertical mortar joints located at the level The sources of load delivered into the Isokern brick- of the inner flashing.(Figure 107) ledge are: Where moisture may develop between the DM (1)the total physical load of brick,stone or other masonry 54 outer casing and the chimney veneer,inner flashings as veneer on the brickledge,and described above will help to divert such moisture to exterior (2)loading due to the force of wind delivered against the ex- face of the veneer by way of the weep holes and thereby keep posed height of the chimney mass. such moisture from working its way down between the veneer The required height of any chimney is governed by facing and the DM 54 outer casing and into tlitipitivE D applicable local building codes.The overall finished structure below. height of any chimney varies based upon site-specific RE'CE'$\IE conditions(eg.elevation of roof line,roof pitch,distance of the chimney from the ridge,etc.). 0 9/21/2 018 52 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Crown Caps DM 54 Small Crown Cap(Figure 108) „, The DM 54 small crown cap is a prefabricated cement F o • weather cap that measures 26- 1/2"square and 3"thick.The •�`�I small crown cap is designed and installed the same as the large crown cap.

SECTION U L (2)If the horizontal distance from the opening of the chimney THRU ROOF �\ to the roof ridge is more than 10'then a chimney height"work point"is established on the roof surface 10'horizontally from FIGURE 110the opening of the chimney.The top of the chimney must be at least 2'above this work point(Figure 111). (3)In all cases,the chimney cannot be less than 3'above the roof at the edge of the chimney(Figure 112& 113). A simple example of this would be if the roof is flat then the chimney would need to be at least 3'above the roof surface.Or,if the chimney penetrates the roof at the ridge then 10'o" the chimney must be at least 3'above the ridge. (Figure 114) Note: The"2 foot in 10 foot rule"is necessary in the interest of fire safety but does not ensure smoke-free operation of the fireplace.Trees,buildings,adjoining roof lines,adverse wind WORK L conditions,etc.may require a taller chimney for the fireplace to POINT draft properly. CHIMNEY 2Chase Enclosures: DM 54 chimneys can be enclosed within a CRICKET o wood framed chase at zero clearance to wood framing members.

Frequently in two story stacked installations the lower unit is supported by a slab-on-grade(as in a basement), ‘U> whereas the upper unit is a typical off-grade support slab. The off-grade slab for the upper unit must be built with suf- ficient width in order to accommodate the width of the upper fireplace plus the width of the by-passing chimney system I► ` ' rising from the lower unit. (Figure 121) 11 II The slab for the lower unit will need to be built with I'\/ enough width to provide support for the lower fireplace unit I'`I plus the bearing surface for the support columns needed to carry the offset chimney sequence of the lower system.

IIIIIIII'l A Earthcore mortar is mixed with clean water to a smooth, workable texture(without lumps or dry pockets)of a"toothpaste" i/ consistency.This mixture is suitable for application onto Isokern / components by using a masonry grout bag supplied with the unit. Attention should be paid that the mortar mixture is not too 141 thin or runny,as this will not allow the mortar to reach its maximum bonding strength. Earthcore mortar is squeezed from a grout bag onto the contact surfaces of the Isokern components as they are fitted to- 11111117 FIGURE 6 gether. I It is important that a 1/2"bead of mortar on all the compo- nents'contact surfaces is applied at about 1/2"in from all edges of the contact surface of the component. (Figure 7) When setting the next component onto the mortared con- tact surface of the first component,some mortar should squeeze out along the face of the entire joint as a sign of complete and proper sealing of the joint. ECI On broader contact surfaces it is advisable to apply several `4 MORTAR additional 1/2"beads of the Earthcore Mortar to the area to assure 1proper sealing of the joint. fir Properly mortared firebox and smoke dome assembly requires approximately 5 gallons(dry measure)of Earthcore mortar. Broken Components: Components broken into 2 or 3 pieces can be repaired by using Earthcore mortar along the break line as the component is set into place.Components broken into multiple small pieces should be FIGURE 7 discarded and replaced. Leveling and Aligning Components: Be sure to assemble all Isokern components level and flush with adjoining components. ", Earthcore mortar is not intended to create a mortar joint of any thickness for leveling purposes.Therefore,leveling and alignment adjustments are made by the use of small plastic shims supplied with the unit.(Figure 8) The shims can be inserted under a component to level and align it with adjacent Isokern components.Be sure to re-grout any and all gaps resulting from shim insertion to maintain components to full bearing. SHIM IF REQUIRED Notes: TO ACHIEVE 1.Do not mix Earthcore mortar with spirits or anti-freeze agents. CORRECT HEIGHT 2.The maximum recommended mortar joint thickness at Isokern FIGURE 8 components is 1/4". RECEIVED 09/21/2018 14 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT LAssembly Instructions - (cont.) 3.Earthcore mortar can be troweled over the face of a joint where it has squeezed out while setting components.It is not ECI intended that the exposed faces of the Isokern components be MORTAR completely covered with the mortar. BASE PLITE Installation: %r Step 1: Set the MAGNUM base plate in a full bed of Earthcore Mortar flat on a proper concrete support foundation. (Figure 9). Do not set the MAGNUM base plate so that it is in span.Level FIGURE 9 the MAGNUM base plate by floating it in a bed of Earthcore Mortar to full bearing against the underlying noncombustible I support surface. Notes: If the design preference is for a"flush hearth"(fireplace floor flush with the room's floor),the base plate can be omitted from the assembly and the firebox walls built directly on the concrete support slab.The fire brick floor of the firebox is then I, 1f` ' set directly to the concrete support slab.This makes the fireplace I �I finished fire brick floor approximately one and one-half inches ' I �//%1\I / I 1-1/2 above the topof the concrete support slab(Figure 10). /// II If the design preference is for a raised hearth(floor of ��� II the fireplace elevated above the room's floor),then the MAG- III / I` NUM base plate can be set on a noncombustible platform that FIGURE 10 II / 41 is built up to the desired raised hearth height on the concrete support slab. \' 1l When calculating raised hearth height be sure to allow for the three inch(3")thick base plate plus the one and one half Ij inch(1-1/2")thick fire brick floor in addition to the height of the platform.Whether a flush hearth is preferred or a raised hearth, the combustible floor on front of the fireplace must be covered with a noncombustible hearth extension set tight against the fire- / place front and extending at least 20 inches out from the finished fireplace and at least 12 inches beyond the finished sides of the I� 1� , fireplace opening. (Figure 11) I �I For all"raised hearth"construction where concrete I/11I blocks are used to create the raised platform,it is necessary to use the MAGNUM base plate.Be sure to mortar the concrete J II / I block platform together.CMU used for base plate support 1 ` I should be rated ASTM 90. \ ` I / I` *1 Step 2: Set the first course of the firebox back wall and side `I o walls into place. \' 1II , It may be convenient to dry set the first course of side FIGURE 11 wall and back wall into place on the Isokern base plate and then to trace their position on the base plate with a pencil. (Figure 12) i�l After outlining the dry set pieces,remove them and ap- ply Earthcore Mortar to the areas traced on the base plate where I SIDE WALL the side walls and back wall are to sit.By doing this,the first layer of Wall components can be set directly into mortar already applied to the proper areas on the base plate. (Figure 12) �- Be sure to put Earthcore Mortar on the contact surfaces of the vertical joints where the side wall and back wall compoIf .„, - nents connect.(Figure 13) IVED Note: At all component placement,be sure to mortar all compo- FIGURE 12 ECI nent contact surfaces with Earthcore Mortar.Check for complete MORTAR sealing of each contact joint while assembly progresses. 0 9/21/2 018 15 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - (cont.) 11% TWO COURSES Step 3: Continue assembly of the second,third and fourth IWOI BACKWAL L courses of the firebox side wall and back wall.Apply mortar to the top of each layer of wall components,set the next course 10111111 , , above into place.Be sure to mortar all vertical joints of the side wall to back wall connection when setting each component to � its mate.(Figure 13) Look for some mortar to squeeze out along the joints of all contact surfaces as a sign that the joint is thoroughly / sealed with the approved mortar. Step 4:When all of the MAGNUM firebox wall components are set,check the top surface of the firebox for level. FIRST DER If necessary,adjust the top surface of the box assembly for level SUPPORT IN PLACE by inserting a shim between the lowest wall component and the fill . top surface of the MAGNUM base plate. (Figure 8) FIGURE 13r Any gap created under the wall components during the Shim leveling process must be filled with mortar to full bearing against the base plate. iiiih I `I Step 5:Make sure that the firebox assembly has been set level and square.Adjust as required while the mortar is still wet. Make a final inspection of all contact joints in the fire- box assembly to be sure they are properly sealed.Fill any and all gaps in the assembly,as necessary,with the approved mortar. Step 6:The MAGNUM comes with an eight inch(8")thick damper beam assembly,a four piece component group that is to CAST IRC be assembled on top of the firebox. DAM PER The damper beam assembly consists of two long lintel FRONT DEFER��� pieces and two short damper beam side pieces. SUPPORT The two lintels are identical in shape,size and in OMlength,equal to the width of the MAGNUM fireplace model 14--- �� that they serve. ' Properly placed,one lintel is to sit on top of the firebox 414 111, ., back wall and flush with it;the other lintel sits flush with the front of the firebox,spanning the firebox opening.These com- ponents both sit on their narrow base so that their beveled face 1 NI • points down and into the firebox interior. (Figure 15) The damper side pieces are designed to sit on the Ifirebox side wall between the front lintel and the back lintel. I (Figure 14) '/ Each of the damper side pieces is designed specifically for its own side of the unit.When properly set,each damper side piece fits flush with the outside face of the firebox sidewall so that its interior bottom edge aligns with the interior angle of the firebox side wall that it sits on.(Figure 14) Be sure to mortar all damper beam components to the top surfaces of the firebox. Mortar the contact surfaces of each damper side com- ponent where it meets the front and back damper beam assem- bly lintel components.

Standard N-Type brick mortar EXPANSION is a suitable fire brick mortar for the Standard fireplace and 1/4 GAP good masonry practices should be followed. All required through-wall accesses(gas and electrical line feeds and combustion air supply access holes)should be FIGURE 22 drilled before the required fire brick lining is installed. It takes a total of about five gallons of S-Type brick mortar mix(dry measure)to fire brick line a MAGNUM fireplace. Face joints of one quarter inch(1/4")to three-eights inch(3/8")give a good appearance to the finished brickwork however,this is just a suggestion and other face joint dimen- sions are also acceptable.

(Figure 26) 09/21/2018 20 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 60" The MAGNUM Model 60 is a custom unit made of standard parts that are cut and fitted together in the field.The following cut and assembly instructions identify the parts by name and by part number,the quantity required,the field cut dimensions for each modified component and the placement of each part in the assembly. Note:At all component placement,be sure to mortar all contact surfaces with Earthcore Mortar.Check for complete FIGURE 22 sealing of each contact joint while assembly progresses(see "General Isokern Assembly Instructions"on page 14 of this manual for mortar information and instructions). Step 1:Base plate,part M91,two required;All require field cutting. moo_ Set the un-cut M91 base plate components on an ap- propriate masonry foundation.Cut one base plate to 30 1/2". (Figure 22)Set the two pieces so that the line of the grouping is a butt joint.(Figure 23). Set the cut M91 pieces into place. FIGURE 23 This makes for square ends.The overall length of the base plate assembly should measure 73-1/2"and 28"deep. ju Step 2: Side wall,part M9O,eight pieces required,used"as is".The fire box side wall components are used without modi- fication.The side wall pieces stack four high on both the left and right hand ends of the base plate arrangement(Figure 24) The stack of four fire box side wall components will I be assembled in conjunction with the firebox back wall com- ponents described in the following steps. FIGURE 24 Step 3:Back wall,part M67,eight pieces required,to be"field I modified".Cut the tongue off one end of each of the four M67 I/ back wall components as shown. After cutting,four of these cut pieces should measure „ 38 1/2"from the cut end to the shoulder of the un-altered end (Figure 25).The other four cut pieces should measure 22 1/4" from the cut end to the shoulder of the unaltered end.

Step 5: Continue stacking the remaining three courses of - - back wall.Be sure to reverse the positions of the 38-1/2" M67 and the 22-1/4"M67 in each successive course.In this way,the butt joint where the two M67 components meet are staggered from course to course. The overall width dimension at the back of the firebox should be 73-1/2"including the sidewalls. FIGURE 28 (Figure 29). Step 6: Steel angle 4"x 6"x 5/16",one required, 73-1/2"long which must span the top of the MAGNUM Model 60 firebox opening. This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal po- sition.To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top Side component where the angle is to sit.This notch should be wall cut approximately 5/16"deep.The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component(at both the left FIGURE 29 and right hand walls)and run to a point 4"back toward the firebox(Figure 30). The steel angle sits in this notch.The six inch leg 21[ of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be lo- cated in alignment with the front of the firebox.The ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls(Figure 30). Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 7:Damper support(front&rear),Part M69,four required,to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 35-1/2"in length from the long point of the bevel FIGURE 30 REMOVE THIS PIECE cut to the un-cut square end. (Figure 31).The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper Support ti7',. For best results a 15°bevel angle is suggested. . J Step 8:Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 38"with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support.The bevel angle must be at the same 15 DEG.ANGLE angle—in this case, 15 degrees-to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 7 (Figure 32). FIGURE 31 Step 9: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces(one with the long point at the top of the piece and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece)together as pairs. The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be mortared together and set into the steel ��•'� angle from Step 6(Figure 33). 15 DEG.ANGLE RECEIVED FIGURE 32 REMOVE THIS PIECE 09/21/2018 22 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 60" (cont.)

Step 20: Set the smoke dome sloping side walls,part 34,in place between the front and back smoke dome arrangements at their proper locations at each end of the smoke dome. (Figure 42). 53 Y/" The overall width dimension at the top of the smoke dome should be approximately 53-1/2 to 54".(Figure 43) Note: The MAGNUM model 60 is designed to operate with two flues.The top of the smoke dome allows for the place- ment of two Isokem Modular Masonry DM 54(14 inch I.D.) 1` chimneys or two solid fuel listed metal chimneys of the appropriate size. ti Step 21: Smoke dome top plate small,part M77,two re- quired,must field cut to fit. Each of the two smoke dome top plate small,part FIGURE 43 M77,will sit side by side on the smoke dome assembly,meet- ing at the centerline of the smoke dome as a butt joint.The top plate,as standard,comes with a recessed edge(or,a thick- ened center).The recessed edge is approximately 3/8"and is intended to be the bottom face of the top plate. Each of the two top plate pieces must first be cut in width in order to fit the overall smoke dome.Each top plate is to have its width cut by 5".The cut edges must then become the butt joint of the two top plates when set into place (Figure 44).Therefore,the width cuts for each top plate must be on opposite edges of each piece. The un-altered end of each top plate sits at the end of the smoke dome assembly and rests on the smoke dome slop- ing side wall. FIGURE 44 At the recessed edge on the underside of the un-altered ends of each of the two top plates,the thickened part of the top plate will need to be ground down flush with the recessed edge of the top plate so that the underside of the in top plate does not ride high on the smoke dome sloping side wall. Place the two top plate small components on top of the second tier smoke dome arrangement so that they meet at the centerline of the smoke dome. The outlet hole sits closer to the back of the smoke dome.The smoke dome top plates should sit flush with the front and back of the smoke dome. 10111111- The top width dimension of the completed smoke dome should measure approximately 53 1/2"-54".Each top plate small has a width cut dimension of approximately 27". Two of the top plates butted together should equal the smoke dome top width dimension of approximately 54". The top plates may have some overhang at the ends of the top plate assembly,which is acceptable. (Figure 45) FIGURE 45 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 25 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Assembly Instructions - 72" The MAGNUM Model 72 is a custom unit made of standard parts that are cut and fitted together in the field.The following cut and assembly instructions identify the parts by name and by part num- ber,the quantity required,the field cut dimensions for each modi- fied component and the placement of each part in the assembly. \\Note:At all component placement,be sure to mortar all contact • surfaces with Earthcore Mortar.Check for complete sealing of each �� contact joint while assembly progresses(see"General Isokern FIGURE 46 Assembly Instructions"on page 14 of this manual for mortar infor- ' 1II mation and instructions). I II Step 1:Base plate,Part M91,two required.These pieces are used I "as is",without any field cutting required. I III Set the four M91 base plate components on an appropriate masonry foundation and positioned exactly where the firebox is to i,' sit. Set the two pieces so that the centerline of the grouping is a butt joint(Figure 46).This makes for square ends at both the left and I right ends of the grouping.

The firebox side wall components are used without modi- fication.The side wall pieces stack four high on both the left and right hand ends of the base plate arrangement(Figure 47) The stack of four firebox side wall components will be assembled in conjunction with the firebox back wall components described in the following steps. FIGURE 48 Step 3:Back wall,part M67,eight pieces required,four pieces to be"field modified". Cut the tongue off one end of each of the four M67 back wall components.After cutting,each of these four cut pieces should measure 38 1/2"from the cut end to the shoulder of the un- altered end(Figure 48). Step 4:Back wall,part M67,four pieces required,to be "field modified". Cut one end of each of the four M67 back wall compo- nents.These four cut pieces should measure 34-1/2"from the cut 3/7/�„ end to the shoulder of the un-altered end(Figure 49).

FIGURE 51 Step 7: Steel angle of 4"x 6"x 5/16",one each required, 85 1/2"long. 85 1/2" A 4"x 6"x 5/16"steel angle needs to span the top of the MAGNUM Model 72 firebox opening. T This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal position.To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top side wall component where the angle is to sit. This notch should be cut approximately 5/16" deep.The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component(at both the left and right hand walls)and ' run to a point four inches back toward the firebox (Figure 53). FIGURE 52 The steel angle sits in this notch.The six inch leg of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be located in alignment with the front of the firebox.The 10111111011 ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls. (Figure 53) +♦ Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 8:Damper support(front&rear),part M69,four required,to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper 111111111 supports to 44"in length from the long point of the bevel cut to the un-cut square end.The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper supports(Figure 54).

Step 9:Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 41 1/2"with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support.The bevel angle must be at the same angle in this case, 15° -to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 8 44* angle 55). Step 10: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces(one with the long point at the top of the piece /01 and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece) together as pairs.

The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be set into the 4"x 6"steel angle from Step 7 (Figure 56). Since the inside corner of the steel angle is rounded,it is a good idea to round the bottom front corner of the damper support to match the steel. With the bevel cut ends of the damper support pairs meeting at the middle of the firebox,the bevel joint should be an even and good fit.The damper supports overall installed length should be 85 1/2". FIGURE 55 Notes: A.Do not join the damper supports with a butt joint.The bevel joint discussed above is the REQUIRED type of joint for the damper support. B.The bevel angle of 15°is a convenient angle and is given as a suggested angle.The angle of bevel could be different just so the angles cut in the adjoining damper supports join. C.The angle of the bevel cut could be greater just so the bevel cut in each damper support joining pair is the same angle in order to have a good fit at the joint.

Lateral Support for DM 54 Chimneys: Where the DM 54 chimney is built up along an exteri- or wall the vertical chimney system should be connected to the structural wall system at a minimum of four foot(4')intervals. This connection can be made using 18 gauge strap ties (Simpson Strong Tie CS coil strap,or equal). Starting on one side of the DM 54 chimney,at four foot(4')intervals up the structural wall adjoining the chim- ney,connect one 18 gauage strap tie to the structural wall with two,three inch(3")#8(minimum)wood screws or masonry anchors,as appropriate.

An offset chimney block can be set as the first flue component on top of the MAGNUM smoke dome. When building offset sequences it is necessary to support the %%CO '�'o third offset block in the sequence and every third offset block thereaf- ter.When using only one or two offset blocks no additional support is FIGURE 94 required. Offset sequences are best when built as low as possible in the chimney run to maximize performance. Do not make support columns of brick,stone or wood.All support col- umns must bear onto proper noncombustible foundations. 1 i A A Isokern Offset Chimney Block Installation: \ Isokern offset chimney blocks are stacked in a stair stepfash- ion with each successive block overhanging the previous offset block I' \'1 I by three inches(3"),allowing the flue to rise at an angle of thirty(30°) degrees off of vertical. (Figure 94) 11 When building offset sequences check the interior flue I II I alignment as each offset block is set to avoid creating overhanging I ' I ledges on the inside of the flue. Such internal overhangs will inhibit flue drafting. IIII I g III Each offset block is to be set fully in a bed of Earthcore \ Mortar,completely sealing each offset block to the underlying II I component. I Offset chimney block sequences can be built to shift the chimney run to the left,right or to the rear of the firebox/smoke dome III assembly. Offset blocks can be set in a spiraling rotation,thus moving the FIGURE 95 chimney to a point that is diagonally away from its starting point. ••• Offsets to the Left or Right: When offsetting chimneys to the left or right of the firebox it is not pos- sible to build a support column directly under the third offset block. To create proper support,construct a support column against // \\ the firebox from bearing up to the level of the smoke dome.Bridge from the column over to bearing on the smoke dome with two pieces of four inch(4")by four inch(4")by five-eighths inch(5/8")steel angle. (Figure 95) On the steel angles build a masonry or steel support column up to the underside of the third offset block in the sequence.(Figure 95) NOTE: For offset chimney block sequences that clear the side wall of the firebox below,it is allowable to support the first offset block that clears the the firebox side wall and then to proceed with sup- ports at each third offset block thereafter.(Figure 96)FIGURE 96 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 47 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.)

OVERHEAD The total chimney weight above the last offset block OBSTRUCTION will be the total weight of the vertical chimney plus any ad- ditional allowable loads such as the Isokern brickledge,its related brick or stone veneers,and any crown caps,clay pots or other masonry chimney terminations. PLUMBLINE Be sure the foundation under all support columns is made of concrete or steel and designed to support the loads applied to it. 0 Check with local codes and a structural engineer to confirm loading and foundation requirements. Chimney runs are limited to one offset sequence per chimney system. Maximum horizontal distance of offset is six feet (6')and represents twenty-four offset blocks in sequence. By code the maximum angle of offset for chimney system is 30°off of vertical. DM 54 Brick Ledge: The DM 54 brickledge is a 3"thick,32-1/2"square, steel reinforced,concrete and pumice slab(Figure 102). FIGURE 100 It provides a 5"ledge at all four sides of the outer casing �i TRAVEL block and is designed to support masonry veneers to DM 54 DISTANCE chimneys starting below the rafters and continuing to termi- ° nation. (Figure 103) The component is cast with an octagonal hole in its center so that the DM 54 octagonal inner liner can pass through it. The brickledge has four 2-1/2"holes through it that align with the hole in each of the four corners of the DM I\, I 54 outer casing block.These four holes are provided for _1` `• 1 reinforcement of the chimney stack by the insertion of#4, I I I••,. `•. I minimum,steel reinforcing rods and subsequent grouting. (Figure 104) 1•', •'1 The brickledge is intended for use in chimneys that 1 I rise through the roof only where all four sides of the chimney are bounded by the roof. �I WARNING: To maintain structural performance the DM 54 brickledge must not be cut or altered in any way. FIGURE 101 RECEIVED 09/21/2018 50 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Brick Ledge Installation DM 54 Brick Ledge Installation: Use of the brickledge will require a roof framing rough opening of at least 34"in width.The required opening dimension along the length of the rafter,where the chimney is to penetrate the roof line,will increase above 34"relative to the pitch of the roof. o 0 As the DM 54 outer casing and inner liner assembly ap- proaches the roof penetration set an outer casing block to a level of o approximately 6"below the low side of the roof framing. 00 (Figure 105) BRICK The alignment tongues on the top of this outer casing block LEDGE must be ground off to leave a flat contact surface for the brickledge.

If short lengths of steel rods are used be sure to properly I ®® lap and wire tie all splices in the rebar.As the reinforcing progress- es,completely fill the holes with grout. Suitable grout can be a pour- able mixture of Portland cement and sand or Portland cement,sand and pea gravel.The rebar must be fully embedded in grout. r l Leave enough of the#4 steel reinforcing rod exposed above the brickledge so that as the stacking of outer casing blocks FIGURE 103 ®!r• continues to termination the reinforcing rods and grout can continue through the stack.Reinforcing shall continue to chimney termina- tion. All DM 54 chimneys that include the DM 54 brickledge must be reinforced as described above. CAUTION:When using the Isokern brickledge it is required that the MAGNUM firebox/smoke dome assembly include the place- opening. (See page 55 for"Structural Information"for details FIGURE 104 regarding specification and placement of steel angles in MAGNUM fireplaces.) Lateral Support for Isokern Brickledge Chimneys: Once the DM 54 chimney and brickledge are assembled and after the intended masonry veneer has been installed on the brickledge,be sure to brace the chimney following the guidelines on page 45 of this manual for Lateral Support of DM 54 chimneys. 41.ErEIVED 09/21/2018 51 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Load Capacity - Brick Ledge - - It is relatively simple to calculate the total physical load on the brickledge resulting from the physical weight of applied veneers built to code height,however,calculation val- ues for load to the brickledge due to wind are site specific and based on local variables such as wind speed zone,exposure classification,eave height and roof pitch of the structure,as well as height of chimney mass exposed to wind. E Important:The total load delivered into the brickledge is job 1-'� �,-� specific and will be the sum of: (1)the physical load from veneers,plus (2)the load due to wind. ISOKERN The total of physical load and load due to wind must BRICK LEDGE I 1 not exceed ninety four hundred(9400)pounds. Notes: Calculation of wind load requires the services of a local structural engineer who can evaluate wind load for the _ specific structure and site in question. Do not subject the brickledge to unequal loading when applying veneers.Build veneers equally on all four sides of the brickledge. Brickledge Veneer Finish and Flashing Details: When applying brick,stone or other masonry veneer to the Isokern brickledge standard good building practices for masonry veneer work should govern weather-proofing details and the placement of flashings. / /\( A typical flashing detail would be to field fabricate an aluminum or galvanized sheet metal flashing,approximately thirty-two inches(32")square with a twenty inch(20")square hole in it,to serve as an inner flashing. (Figure 106) Place the inner flashing on the first DM 54 outer cas- ing block that fully clears the roof line.Keep the flashing to I I about a one-half inch(1/2")lap onto the top of the outer casing --- ---- block.The twenty inch(20")square hole in the flashing should fit to the outside of the alignment grooves on top of the DM 54 outer casing.Continue the DM 54 chimney up to the required termination height. FIGURE 105 Once the masonry veneer is in progress the inner flashing is set into a horizontal joint in the veneer at a level above all other roof deck flashings,chimney-to-roof flashings Load Capacity for DM 54 Brickledge: and counter flashings.Weep holes should open to the outer face of the veneer at vertical mortar joints located at the level The sources of load delivered into the Isokern brick- of the inner flashing.(Figure 107) ledge are: Where moisture may develop between the DM (1)the total physical load of brick,stone or other masonry 54 outer casing and the chimney veneer,inner flashings as veneer on the brickledge,and described above will help to divert such moisture to exterior (2)loading due to the force of wind delivered against the ex- face of the veneer by way of the weep holes and thereby keep posed height of the chimney mass. such moisture from working its way down between the veneer The required height of any chimney is governed by facing and the DM 54 outer casing and into tlitipitivE D applicable local building codes.The overall finished structure below. height of any chimney varies based upon site-specific RE'CE'$\IE conditions(eg.elevation of roof line,roof pitch,distance of the chimney from the ridge,etc.). 0 9/21/2 018 52 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT DM 54 Chimney System: Crown Caps DM 54 Small Crown Cap(Figure 108) „, The DM 54 small crown cap is a prefabricated cement F o • weather cap that measures 26- 1/2"square and 3"thick.The •�`�I small crown cap is designed and installed the same as the large crown cap.

SECTION U L (2)If the horizontal distance from the opening of the chimney THRU ROOF �\ to the roof ridge is more than 10'then a chimney height"work point"is established on the roof surface 10'horizontally from FIGURE 110the opening of the chimney.The top of the chimney must be at least 2'above this work point(Figure 111). (3)In all cases,the chimney cannot be less than 3'above the roof at the edge of the chimney(Figure 112& 113). A simple example of this would be if the roof is flat then the chimney would need to be at least 3'above the roof surface.Or,if the chimney penetrates the roof at the ridge then 10'o" the chimney must be at least 3'above the ridge. (Figure 114) Note: The"2 foot in 10 foot rule"is necessary in the interest of fire safety but does not ensure smoke-free operation of the fireplace.Trees,buildings,adjoining roof lines,adverse wind WORK L conditions,etc.may require a taller chimney for the fireplace to POINT draft properly.

Frequently in two story stacked installations the lower unit is supported by a slab-on-grade(as in a basement), ‘U> whereas the upper unit is a typical off-grade support slab. The off-grade slab for the upper unit must be built with suf- ficient width in order to accommodate the width of the upper fireplace plus the width of the by-passing chimney system I► ` ' rising from the lower unit. (Figure 121) 11 II The slab for the lower unit will need to be built with I'\/ enough width to provide support for the lower fireplace unit I'`I plus the bearing surface for the support columns needed to carry the offset chimney sequence of the lower system.
