Aluminum Coping question

[hsdancer]

It sounds as though the coping (the aluminum part) is fine but the liner bead needs to be lifted and fit back into the coping, or more specifically, into the track in the coping tht holds the liner. There have been several threads recently about getting sections of liner back into the track. Sorry that I can't refer you to them, but a search should get you where you want to go pretty quickly.

The coping is fine, but are you saying the track the liner fits into is part of the half round part that forms the top edge and butts up to the concrete decking?

I had assumed it was two separate pieces.

Rangeball, the coping should be one piece. Getting the liner back into it is simply a question of getting enough stretch to lift the bead up enough to slip it into the coping receiver. If the water is high or the liner cold you may need to pour hot water (out of the tap is usually hot enough) on it to give it the 'stretch' it needs. To go in the bead needs to be parralell to the slot (well, just a bit above), then it will slide right in and lock in place. If you have any trouble doing this, let me know and I'll expound on how to do it - Waste

Thanks.

I'd read the threads where that was recommended, just figured getting the big half round out of the way would make things eaier.

Had no idea it was all one piece

You should try it with cantaliever concrete!
