3.2 INSTALLATION - GENERAL

A. Install products according to manufacturer's instructions and approved submittal drawings.

1. When manufacturer's instructions deviate from specifications, submit proposed resolution for Contracting Officer's Representative consideration.

3.3 WATERPROOFING INSTALLATION

A. Bituminous Sheet Installation:

1. Remove release sheet before application.

2. Lay bituminous sheet from low point to high point so laps shed water.

3. Treat expansion, construction and control joints and evident working cracks as expansion joints. Apply bituminous sheet in double thickness over joint by first applying a strip of bituminous sheet minimum 200 mm (8 inches) wide, centered over joint.

4. Lap seams minimum 50 mm (2 inches).

5. Lay succeeding sheet with laps, and roll or press into place.

6. Repair misaligned or inadequately lapped seams according to manufacturer’s instructions.

7. Seal seams and terminations according to sheet manufacturer’s instructions.

B. Corner Treatment:

1. At inside and outside corners, apply double cover using an initial strip minimum 280 mm (11 inches) wide, centered along axis of corner.

2. Cover each strip completely by the regular application of bituminous sheet.

3. Provide a fillet or cant on inside corners.

4. Form cants using patching compound.

5. Do not use wood, fiber, and insulating materials for cants.

C. Projection Treatment:

1. Apply a double layer of bituminous sheet around pipes and similar projections at least 150 mm (6 inches) wide.

2. At drains, apply a bead of roof cement over a double layer of bituminous sheet under clamping rings.

D. Patching:

1. Repair tears, punctures, air blisters, and inadequately lapped seams, according to manufacturer’s instructions before protection course is applied.

E. Permanent Protection:

1. Vertical Surfaces:

a. Install hardboard, polystyrene insulation, or roll roofing protection material.

b. Extend protection full height from footing to top of backfill.

c. If graded backfill is used, use roll roofing or hardboard.

F. Horizontal Surfaces:

1. Install roll roofing protection under concrete wearing courses.

2. Install roll roofing, hardboard, or polystyrene insulation under earth backfill.

3. Where no concrete wearing course occurs or when surfaces will bear heavy traffic and will not immediately be covered with a wearing course, use protection specified for vertical surfaces.

G. Temporary Protection:

1. When waterproofing materials are subjected to damage by sunlight and cannot be immediately protected as specified, protect waterproofing materials by waterproof building paper or suitable coating approved by manufacturer of waterproofing system used.

3.4 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

A. Testing:

1. Before any protection or wearing course is applied, test all horizontal applications of waterproofing with a minimum of 25 mm

(1 inch) head of water above highest point and leave for 24 hours.

2. Mark leaks and repair when waterproofing is dry.

3. Certify, to Contracting Officer's Representative, that water tests have been made and that areas tested were found watertight.

B. Inspection:

1. Do not cover waterproofed surfaces by other materials or backfill until work is approved by Contracting Officer's Representative.
