Coping Stones
The photo shows a wall in preparation to receive coping stones. Battens have been fixed to the top of the wall sides to support the heavy stones, to prevent the cement from being squeezed out too much, and to keep the stones aligned and flush with each other.
This wall is very thick, being part of a retaining wall structure and the coping stones are not wide enough to have the optimum overhang of about 50mm.
