Installing exterior cappings : 

 
Once the structure is secured to the floor, the cappings can be installed. There are 8 
exterior cappings that join the panels together.  
 

 

Place the capping as seen on drawing below. Note that on one of the sides, the 
grooves is smaller. Make sure you start the alignment of the capping with the 
opposite side. With a rubber mallet, hit the side of the capping forcefully until 
the opposite end snaps into place.  

 

Start from the top of the structure and work your way down.  If the walls have 
been joined correctly, the cappings will snap in easily.  

 

Repeat the procedure until all 8  cappings are installed.
