Installation
1. Schlüter
®
-BARA-R is placed at the edge
area and using a mortar layer, it is set to
the right height and aligned. For outside
corners, corresponding special corner
pieces are available. Between the ends
of two profiles, a space of approximately
5 mm is left and covered by clipping on a
connector.
2.
Balcony and terrace surfaces shall be
filled with mortar to the height at which
the mortar bed’s structural reinforcement
(AKS lattice) is placed. In doing so, the
reinforcing lattice must overlap the an-
choring leg of the profile.
3.
To produce the load distribution layer
, the
screed mortar is applied at the appropri-
ate height and slope using the upper
edge of Schlüter
®
-BARA-R as a screeding
guide. If Schlüter
®
-DITRA is to be installed
as an uncoupling and bonded waterproof
membrane, the screed is levelled 3 mm
below the top of the profile and carefully
compacted.
4. Please
Note:
Schlüter

-TROBA or Schlüter

-TROBA-
PLUS must be laid as an area drainage
layer between the waterproofing layer and
the screed.
