The turnback shall be mopped in over the top of the vapor barrier. Bitumen or bituminous plastic cement shall be used at eaves and rakes under the vapor barrier for not less than 9 inches. Vapor barrier or separate sheets shall be turned back over edges in insulation board at roof penetrations and locations other than parapet walls, eaves and rakes.
6.1.4 For application procedures of the vapor barrier, see Section 7510.
6.2 On Slopes of 2 Inches or More: Provide treated wood insulation stops according to the roof insulation manufacturer's requirements. Secure cant and tapered edge strips in place with steep asphalt; cut and neatly fit all joints and miters. Insulation board, cant strips, and tapered edge strips that can be readily lifted or displaced by hand are not adequately secured. Reinstall all lifted and displaced items that are not damaged. Replace damaged items with new material. Follow additional applicable requirements of the roof insulation manufacturer and BURS manufacturer.
7. APPLICATION OF FIRST LAYER (BOTTOM LAYER) OF ROOF INSULATION:
7.1 Over Concrete Decks or Wood Decks:
7.1.1 The bottom layer of roof insulation shall be laid in one or two layers over the top of the new vapor barrier. Units of insulation shall be laid in parallel courses perpendicular to the roof slope. End joints shall be staggered. Insulation shall be cut to fit neatly against adjoining surfaces. Joints in successive layers shall be staggered with respect to joints of preceding layer.
7.1.2.1 The existing deck, which is over 20 years old, will experience higher and more frequent deflections than a newly constructed deck.
7.1.2.2 Prior to placing the bottom layer of insulation, the Contractor shall field verify the levelness of the surface that the bottom layer will be going on top of. Any unevenness considered significant by the insulation manufacturer of the bottom layer shall be reported to the Contracting Officer within 24 hours.
7.2 Hot Mop: Over Concrete Decks or Wood Decks:
7.2.1 Secure all insulation boards in full, uniform, and continuous moppings of hot asphalt applied at the rate of 25 pounds bitumen per square, minimum. Due to the unevenness of the deck, the bitumen application rate may vary from 25 to 40 pounds per square. Insulation which can be readily lifted after installation is not considered to be adequately secured and shall be removed and re-asphalted into place.
7240-8
7.2.2 For the bottom layer of insulation boards apply hot asphalt with mops only. Use of mechanical spreaders shall not be allowed. The contractor shall determine the percent asphalt adhesion for approximately 5% of the sheets of the bottom layer of insulation after installed in hot asphalt to verify that the insulation is adequately secured. When required by the project manager / project inspector, the verification shall be done in their presence. Results shall be noted on the quality controller’s reports. Fifty percent asphalt adhesion [minimum] is required with each sheet of the bottom layer of insulation hot mopped in place, unless the contractor can demonstrate that the unevenness of the existing deck or other deck problems prevents him from reaching the fifty percent asphalt adhesion.
7.2.3 Bitumen shall not be applied further than one panel length ahead of roof insulation being installed.
7.2.4 The edges of insulation boards adjoining vented nailers shall be kept free of bitumen. A 1/2-to-1-inch air space shall be provided between parapet walls and insulation for use with wood vents hereinafter specified.
7.3 Mechanically Fasten: Over Wood Decks:

7.4.3 Crickets shall be provided behind mechanical equipment to divert water away from mechanical equipment.
7.4.4 Ridges, hips, and valleys shall be placed to provide smooth transitions and proper alignment where these panels meet.
7.4.5 Insulation panels on each side of ridge shall meet at the same elevation.
7.5 Protect Insulation:
7.5.1 The insulation shall be kept dry at all times and shall be laid just before application of the roofing felts. No more insulation shall be laid than can be covered the same day with the complete roofing system unless approved otherwise by the Contracting Officer. Exposed edges of the insulation shall be protected by the cutoffs at the end of each days work or whenever precipitation is imminent. Cutoffs shall be two layers of bituminous felt set in plastic bituminous cement. Cutoffs shall be removed when work is resumed.
7.6 Walk-in Insulation:
7240-9
7.6.1 Contractor shall carefully "walk-in" each sheet of insulation board of the bottom layer that is hot mopped in place. Contractor shall make sure that the insulation board edges and corners are securely adhered down into the asphalt. Contractor shall neatly and partially cut insulation boards in half or quarters to increase asphalt adhesion.
7.7 Heat Gun:
7.7.1 Contractor shall use an infrared heat gun on the insulation boards placed in hot mopped asphalt to determine the asphalt temperature at point of application. The best application temperature for maximum asphalt adhesion with the insulation shall be determined by the Contractor and reported to the Contracting Officer and then…
