Default bricklaying and DPC

The DPC felt should be bedded on 10mm of mortar - smoothed flat with no

That sounds like the joint could be 20mm, i.e. 10mm mortar, DPC, then
10mm mortar, then brick. Or are you saying the top brick goes straight
onto the DPC ?
Simon.


Yes. The DPC joint is 20mm total and it should be 'weather struck'
pointed to distinguish it as a DPC.
