Abstract:
1. A method of preparing a honeycomb segment joined body in which a plurality of honeycomb segments are arranged in directions parallel to a first flat surface and a second flat surface of an installation reference jig, comprising: successively installing the honeycomb segments in predetermined positions via a paste-like joining material on the installation reference jig, the first flat surface and the second flat surface of the installation reference jig forming a right angle therebetween; directly applying a pressure to at least some of the honeycomb segments that have been previously installed in order to hold the previously installed honeycomb segments in the predetermined positions so that the previously installed honeycomb segments are not displaced during the installation of each honeycomb segment; and drying and curing the joining material to join the plurality of honeycomb segments together after all of the honeycomb segments have been installed, wherein the pressure applied to at least some of the honeycomb segments that have been previously installed is applied via a pressure applying device that makes direct contact with the previously installed honeycomb segments.
