Method of securing an architectural finish element to a surface

摘要

A method of securing an architectural finish element to a surface ultimately formed by a castable material cast about a mesh material involves securing at least one projection to a backing surface of the architectural finish element such that the projection extends away from the backing surface. The castable material is then cast about the mesh material. The projection is then inserted into the castable material before the castable material has set, until the backing surface rests on the surface of the castable material, whereupon the projection co-operates with the mesh material to engage therewith. The castable material is then permitted to set about the projection, thereby firmly securing the projection in the castable material and securing the architectural finish element to the castable material and the mesh material.
