This is a technical specification document for acoustical batt insulation to be used in the AFD Visitor Center Remodel project located in Missoula, Montana. The specification outlines requirements for glass fiber acoustical insulation intended for interior walls, floors, and ceilings in residential building applications. The insulation must comply with ASTM C 665, Type 1 standards and be unfaced glass fiber batts. Performance requirements include a maximum flame spread rating of 10 and maximum smoke development of 10 under ASTM E84 testing, with the material required to pass ASTM E136 combustion characteristics testing. The insulation must demonstrate linear dimensional stability of less than 0.1% and contain zero formaldehyde content. Installation shall consist of friction-fit unfaced batts between studs in accordance with manufacturer instructions. Owens-Corning is specified as the primary manufacturer, with substitutions permitted under Section 01 6000 Product Requirements. Products must be delivered in unopened manufacturer packaging and stored protected from physical damage, moisture, and contamination. Submittals must include manufacturer data sheets covering preparation instructions, storage and handling requirements, and installation methods, along with certified test reports from independent agencies verifying compliance with specified acoustical and fire performance requirements.
