About this file
This is a technical specification document for mineral fiber blanket insulation required for construction projects at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, issued in April 2019.
The specification requires ASTM C665 Type I blanket insulation without membrane coverings, with Class A flame spread ratings of 25 or less when tested per ASTM E84. Insulation R-values must match drawings. Fiberglass insulation must contain 20 to 25 percent recycled glass cullet complying with ASTM D5359, and asbestos-containing materials are prohibited. Additional materials required include 6 mil polyethylene vapor retarder sheeting conforming to ASTM D4397 with water vapor permeance of 1 perm or less, pressure-sensitive tape with equivalent permeance ratings, corrosion-resistant mechanical fasteners, and corrosion-resistant wire mesh as recommended by manufacturers. Adhesives must comply with ULE Greenguard certification requirements for low pollutant emissions. Blocking around heat-producing devices must be non-combustible per ASTM E136 with specified clearances for recessed lighting (3 inches), masonry chimneys (2 inches), and vents per NFPA standards. Installation requirements mandate that insulation be installed per manufacturer instructions with continuity maintained at all joints, no electrical wiring sandwiched between insulation layers, proper vapor retarder stapling at 6-inch intervals, and full-width blankets for snug fitting between framing members. Submittals require product data, manufacturer's instructions, and documentation of recycled content and VOC reduction. Worker safety protocols mandate NIOSH/MSHA-approved dust/mist respirators and protective clothing per 29 CFR 1910.134.
