Laying coping stone on top of engineering bricks

I would lay the copings as normal but I would use a cutting wheel and grinder to help the coping stones adhere fully by cutting some lines into the base of the copings. Hope this works for you

First fill the holes with mortar. Then lay an even bed of mortar and lay your copes. I would recommend using sbr and cement mixed together like a slurry and paint on to the underside of the coping. Also set a cope at each end and use a string line to get them nice and level

I would fill holes with morta put a 10 mm bed of mta down and I would lay one at each end and put a string line on so its straight

You need to fill in the holes with mortar and lay some dpc over the bricks then lay the coping stones with mortar over the dpc

Fill holes with mortar then lay them

Preparation 1. Make sure the top course of bricks is level, clean, and free from dust/debris. If you’ve installed a DPC tray under the coping stone. 2. Fill the Brick Holes Engineering bricks with holes don’t provide a solid bedding surface. Before laying coping stones, fill the holes with a strong sand/cement mix (5:1) 3. Slurry Coat for Bonding Apply an SBR slurry (SBR mixed with cement into a paintable paste) to the bottom of the coping stones. This improves adhesion and prevents future separation. 4. Bedding Mix Use a strong mortar bed (5:1 building sand to cement). Lay a continuous bed across the filled holes or solid top surface – no gaps, as gaps can trap water and cause frost damage. 5. Positioning the Coping Stones Lay coping stones onto the fresh mortar, pressing firmly so they bed evenly. Use a spirit level to check fall – coping stones should have a slight slope (approx. 5–10mm) away from the wall to shed rainwater. Joints should be 10mm mortar joints, fully filled, not just pointed on the surface. 6. Finishing Tool the joints neatly for water resistance. Brush off excess mortar before it sets. Allow at least 24–48 hrs curing before heavy exposure to rain.

Fill the holes in and put a 10mm bed on top for your cold stone

Use 6_1 mix of sand and cement

Fill the holes with mortar, lay the copings on a mortar bed and paint their bottom with priming slurry. For the joints in between the copings there are plenty of options but you can use mortar or grout, depending on the joints width and coping material/colour so you can achieve the most aesthetically pleasing look. Also using a string line is essential to lay them in a straight line, long spirit level can also help with that (depending on how long is the wall you gonna lay them on) but usually string line is preferred. Hope that helps.

Decent sized bed joint and lay copings on top. To be extra safe you can score the bottom with a grinder to make a mechanical key, or slurry the bottom. Avoid slurrying the oversail where it may be seen.
