JOINT SEALANTS<br />
1. Place sealants so they directly contact and fully wet joint substrates.<br />
2. Completely fill recesses in each joint configuration.<br />
3. Produce uniform, cross-sectional shapes and depths relative to joint widths that<br />
allow optimum sealant movement capability.<br />
G. Tooling <strong>of</strong> Nonsag Sealants: Immediately after sealant application and before skinning<br />
or curing begins, tool sealants according to requirements specified below to form<br />
smooth, uniform beads <strong>of</strong> configuration indicated; to eliminate air pockets; and to<br />
ensure contact and adhesion <strong>of</strong> sealant with sides <strong>of</strong> joint.<br />
1. Remove excess sealant from surfaces adjacent to joints.<br />
2. Use tooling agents that are approved in writing by sealant manufacturer and that<br />
do not discolor sealants or adjacent surfaces.<br />
3. Provide concave joint configuration per Figure 5A in ASTM C 1193, unless<br />
otherwise indicated.<br />
a. Use masking tape to protect surfaces adjacent to recessed tooled joints.<br />
H. Installation <strong>of</strong> Preformed Tapes: Install according to manufacturer's written<br />

A. Clean <strong>of</strong>f excess sealant or sealant smears adjacent to joints as the Work progresses<br />
by methods and with cleaning materials approved in writing by manufacturers <strong>of</strong> joint<br />
sealants and <strong>of</strong> products in which joints occur.<br />
3.5 PROTECTION<br />
A. Protect joint sealants during and after curing period from contact with contaminating<br />
substances and from damage resulting from construction operations or other causes<br />
so sealants are without deterioration or damage at time <strong>of</strong> Substantial Completion. If,<br />
despite such protection, damage or deterioration occurs, cut out and remove damaged<br />
or deteriorated joint sealants immediately so installations with repaired areas are<br />
indistinguishable from original work.<br />

substances that could impair bond <strong>of</strong> the various coatings. Remove oil and grease<br />
before cleaning.<br />
1. Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the<br />
cleaning process will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces.<br />
C. Surface Preparation: Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to<br />
manufacturer's written instructions for each particular substrate condition and as<br />
specified.<br />
1. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime.<br />
2. Cementitious Materials: Prepare concrete, concrete unit masonry, surfaces to be<br />
painted. Remove efflorescence, chalk, dust, dirt, grease, oils, and release<br />
agents. Roughen as required to remove glaze. If hardeners or sealers have<br />
been used to improve curing, use mechanical methods <strong>of</strong> surface preparation.<br />
a. Determine alkalinity and moisture content <strong>of</strong> surfaces by performing<br />
appropriate tests. If surfaces are sufficiently alkaline to cause the finish<br />
paint to blister and burn, correct this condition before application. Do not<br />
paint surfaces if moisture content exceeds that permitted in manufacturer's<br />
written instructions.<br />
3. Ferrous Metals: Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been<br />
shop coated; remove oil, grease, dirt, loose mill scale, and other foreign<br />
substances. Use solvent or mechanical cleaning methods that comply with<br />
SSPC's recommendations.<br />
a. Treat bare and sandblasted or pickled clean metal with a metal <strong>treatment</strong><br />
wash coat before priming.<br />
b. Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been<br />

4. Galvanized Surfaces: Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based<br />
solvents so surface is free <strong>of</strong> oil and surface contaminants. Remove<br />
pre<strong>treatment</strong> from galvanized sheet metal fabricated from coil stock by<br />
mechanical methods.<br />
D. Material Preparation: Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturer's<br />
written instructions.<br />
1. Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition, free <strong>of</strong><br />
foreign materials and residue.<br />
2. Stir material before application to produce a mixture <strong>of</strong> uniform density. Stir as<br />
required during application. Do not stir surface film into material. If necessary,<br />
remove surface film and strain material before using.<br />
3. Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended<br />
limits.<br />
E. Tinting: Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to simplify identification <strong>of</strong> each coat when<br />
multiple coats <strong>of</strong> same material are applied. Tint undercoats to match the color <strong>of</strong> the<br />
finish coat, but provide sufficient differences in shade <strong>of</strong> undercoats to distinguish each<br />
separate coat.<br />
3.3 APPLICATION<br />
A. General: Apply paint according to manufacturer's written instructions. Use applicators<br />
and techniques best suited for substrate and type <strong>of</strong> material being applied.<br />
1. Paint colors, surface <strong>treatment</strong>s, and finishes are indicated in the paint<br />
schedules.<br />
2. Do not paint over dirt, rust, scale, grease, moisture, scuffed surfaces, or<br />
conditions detrimental to formation <strong>of</strong> a durable paint film.<br />
3. Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used.<br />
4. The term "exposed surfaces" includes areas visible when permanent or built-in<br />
fixtures, grilles, convector covers, covers for finned-tube radiation, and similar<br />
components are in place. Extend coatings in these areas, as required, to<br />
maintain system integrity and provide desired protection.<br />
5. Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar<br />
exposed surfaces. Before final installation <strong>of</strong> equipment, paint surfaces behind<br />
permanently fixed equipment or furniture with prime coat only.<br />
6. Paint interior surfaces <strong>of</strong> ducts with a flat, nonspecular black paint where visible<br />
through registers or grilles.<br />
7. Paint back sides <strong>of</strong> access panels and removable or hinged covers to match<br />
exposed surfaces.<br />
8. Finish exterior doors on tops, bottoms, and side edges the same as exterior<br />
faces.<br />
9. Sand lightly between each succeeding enamel or varnish coat.<br />
B. Scheduling Painting: Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned, pretreated, or<br />
otherwise prepared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before<br />
subsequent surface deterioration.<br />
1. The number <strong>of</strong> coats and film thickness required are the same regardless <strong>of</strong><br />
application method. Do not apply succeeding coats until previous coat has cured<br />
as recommended by manufacturer. If sanding is required to produce a smooth,<br />
09912-9<br />

CITY OF LABELLE MEMBRANE WTF April 7, 2011
PAINTING (PROFESSIONAL LINE PRODUCTS)<br />
even surface according to manufacturer's written instructions, sand between<br />
applications.<br />
2. Omit primer over metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup<br />
painted.<br />
3. If undercoats, stains, or other conditions show through final coat <strong>of</strong> paint, apply<br />
additional coats until paint film is <strong>of</strong> uniform finish, color, and appearance. Give<br />
special attention to ensure that edges, corners, crevices, welds, and exposed<br />
fasteners receive a dry film thickness equivalent to that <strong>of</strong> flat surfaces.<br />
4. Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying. Do not<br />
recoat surfaces until paint has dried to where it feels firm, and does not deform or<br />
feel sticky under moderate thumb pressure, and until application <strong>of</strong> another coat<br />
<strong>of</strong> paint does not cause undercoat to lift or lose adhesion.<br />
C. Application Procedures: Apply paints and coatings by brush, roller, spray, or other<br />
applicators according to manufacturer's written instructions.<br />
1. Brushes: Use brushes best suited for type <strong>of</strong> material applied. Use brush <strong>of</strong><br />
appropriate size for surface or item being painted.<br />
2. Rollers: Use rollers <strong>of</strong> carpet, velvet-back, or high-pile sheep's wool as<br />
recommended by manufacturer for material and texture required.<br />

PART 3 - EXECUTION<br />
3.1 INSTALLATION OF THE WORK<br />
A. Examine the site and all drawings before proceeding with the layout and installation <strong>of</strong><br />
the Work. Locate all vertical piping within walls in finished spaces unless specifically<br />
noted otherwise. Such piping cannot always be shown within walls on drawings due to<br />
their small scale.<br />
B. Arrange the Work essentially as shown, exact layout to be made on the job to suit<br />
actual conditions. Confer and cooperate with other trades on the job so all Work will be<br />
installed in proper relationship and coordinate precise location <strong>of</strong> parts with the Work <strong>of</strong><br />
others.<br />
C. Arrange for required chases, slots and openings with the General Contractor including<br />
locations <strong>of</strong> required pipe sleeves through walls and foundations. Assume liability for<br />
cutting or patching made necessary by failure to make proper arrangements in this<br />
respect.<br />
D. Indicated equipment connections are necessarily based on equipment <strong>of</strong> a given<br />
manufacture. Assume responsibility for proper arrangement <strong>of</strong> piping, ducts, etc. to<br />
connect approved equipment in a proper and approved manner. Follow equipment<br />
manufacturer's detailed instructions and recommendations in the installation and<br />
connection <strong>of</strong> all equipment. In case <strong>of</strong> conflict between manufacturer's instructions<br />
and the contract documents, notify the Architect before proceeding. No equipment<br />
installation or connections shall be made in a manner that voids the manufacturer's<br />
warranty.<br />

C. Excavate trenches suitable in width to provide a minimum <strong>of</strong> 6" clear space between<br />
the barrel <strong>of</strong> the pipe and the trench wall on both sides <strong>of</strong> the pipe. Accurately grade<br />
the trench bottom to provide uniform bearing and support for each section <strong>of</strong> the pipe<br />
on undisturbed soil at every point along its entire length. Take care not to excavate<br />
below the depth necessary and excavate bell holes to ensure proper bedding. Backfill<br />
over-depths with loose, granular, moist material and thoroughly compact to the depth<br />
required.<br />
D. Place and compact backfill material in 6" layers until the pipe has a minimum cover <strong>of</strong><br />
12". Place and compact the remaining material in 12" layers. Grade the surface to a<br />
reasonable uniformity and leave the mounding in neat condition as approved by the<br />
Architect.<br />
E. Backfill all trenches passing under foundations with concrete to the underside <strong>of</strong> the<br />
foundation and at a 2:1 slope away from each side <strong>of</strong> the foundation. Backfill all<br />
trenches that are parallel and deeper than foundations with concrete to a point that will<br />
place the top <strong>of</strong> the concrete on a 2:1 slope away from the foundation bottom. Do not<br />
backfill trenches until all required tests and inspections are completed.<br />
3.3 PIPE INSTALLATION – GENERAL<br />
A. Install all piping in a workmanlike manner, according to the best practice <strong>of</strong> the trade,<br />
