| Spectra-GlazeŽ Soft CornerTM
Block offers choice in design with a considerable savings as
compared to the typical 8 eight inch return corner.
Available Sizes:
Raw block which were specially designed to match the glazed surface
are only available in eight inch through-wall dimension. However, if
smaller sized through wall dimension are required, block can be cut
to fit the glazed surface. If smaller raw block are used, the
exposed inner raw block will require additional decoration.
Can I get the exterior corner raw block without the glaze?
Yes. Designing walls with Spectra-GlazeŽ Soft CornersTM
allows the architect to design the base half of a wall with
Spectra-GlazeŽ and the upper half with a matching raw block.
 What
are the internal and external radius dimensions?
The exterior radius is sixteen inches and the interior radius is
eight inches.
Are other radius options
available?
No. At this time, Spectra-GlazeŽ Soft CornersTM are only
available in sixteen inch exterior dimensions and eight inch
interior dimension.
Can I build a column with the Soft CornerTM
Block?
Yes. By using eight 8E block, a circle with a 32 inch outside
diameter will be formed. An oval shape can be achieved as shown in
the lower right portion of the diagram to the right.
Can I design a wall with stack bond or running bond?
Yes. Spectra-GlazeŽ Soft CornerTM Block can be designed
with stack or running bond. The transitional block known as 8EK
block allows the block to stay on running bond on the exterior. A
combination of 8I and 8IK block allows the wall to be built with
running bond on interior corners.
Can I use Soft CornerTM Block to
design a 45° corner?
Yes. As shown in the diagram to the right, by using one (1) 8E or
Two (2) 8EK block will create an external 45° corner. By using one
(1) 8IK block, you can achieve a 45° internal corner.
Innovative Soft CornersTM
transform internal corners from sharp crevices that are difficult to
maintain, to the soft, easily cleaned 8" radius corners. The 16"
external radius helps traffic flow, visibility and safety in
congested areas. Both corners enhance appearance by keeping walls on
modular bond, eliminating those unsightly added mortar joints at the
corners.
