PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLATION
3.1.1 Metal Roofing
3.1.1.1 Flat Copper Roofing
Before applying roofing, cover deck with rosin-sized roofing felt. Lap 2 inch at joints and secure in place with roofing nails. Using solder of equal parts tin and lead, solder slowly with well-heated irons to thoroughly heat sheet and completely sweat solder through full width of seam. Tin edges of copper to be soldered at least 3/4 inch before sheets are locked. Use stainless nails in terne-coated steel; in copper, use solid copper or bronze roofing nails in zinc, use zinc-coated roofing nails. Where roof decks abut vertical surfaces, turn metal roofing up vertical surfaces about 8 inch where practicable; where vertical surfaces are covered with applied materials, turn up roofing behind applied materials. Use standing-seam method for roofs having rise of more than 3 inch per foot, and use flat-seam method when rise is 3 inch per foot or less. Walking not permitted directly on metal roofs; provide approved walkways.
3.1.1.2 Standing-seam Method
Make standing seams parallel with slope of roof. Fabricate sheets into long lengths at shop by locking short dimensions together and thoroughly soldering joints thus formed.
In applying metal, turn up one edge of course at each side seam at right angles 1.5 inch.
Then install 2 by 3 inchcleats spaced 12 inch apart by fastening one end of each cleat to
07 60 00
Section J – Attachment 2AE Page 7 of 21 8 Feb 2010 roof with two one inch long nails and folding roof end back over nail heads. Turn end adjoining turned-up side seam up over upstanding edge of course. Turn up adjoining edge of next course 1.75 inch and abutting upstanding edges locked, turned over, and flattened against one side of standing seam. Make standing seams straight, rounded neatly at the top edges, and stand about one inch above roof deck. All sheets must be same length, except as required to complete run or maintain pattern. Locate transverse joints of each panel half way between joints in adjacent sheets. Align joints of alternate sheets horizontally to produce uniform pattern, as shown in SMACNA 1793.
3.1.1.3 Flat-seam Method
Lay metal so short dimension is parallel to gutter or eave lines and so water will flow over and not into seams. Make seams by turning edges of sheet 3/4 inch and lock and solder together. If sheets are laid one at a time, secure to roof deck with cleats, using three cleats to each sheet, two on long side and one on short side. Use cleats inch wide, hooked over 3/4 inch upturned edges of sheets, and nail to roof deck with two one inch long nails. Turn back roof end of cleat over nail heads before next sheet is applied. If desired, sheets may be made into long lengths at shop by locking short dimensions together and soldering seams thus formed. Turn long lengths 3/4 inch, and secure each length to roof deck by cleats spaced 12 inch apart. Mallet and solder seams after pans are in place. All sheets to be same length, except as required to complete run or maintain pattern. Locate transverse joints of each panel half way between joints in adjacent sheets.
Align joints of alternate sheets horizontally to produce uniform pattern, as shown in
SMACNA 1793.

Set metal housing with a metal sleeve having a 4 inch roof flange in bituminous plastic cement and nailed 3 inch on center. Extend sleeve a minimum of 8 inch above the roof deck and lapped a minimum of 3 inch by a metal hood secured to the vent pipe by a draw band. Seal the area of hood in contact with vent pipe with an approved sealant.
3.1.30 Stepped Flashing
Stepped flashing shall be installed where sloping roofs surfaced with shingles abut vertical surfaces. Separate pieces of base flashing shall be placed in alternate shingle courses.
3.1.31 Copings
Provide coping using copper sheets 8 or 10 feet long joined by a 3/4 inch locked and soldered seam. . Terminate outer edges in edge strips. Install with sealed lap joints cover plate joints standing seam joints as indicated.
3.2 PAINTING
Field-paint sheet metal for separation of dissimilar materials.

Remove work that is not in compliance with the contract and replace or correct. Include quality control, but not be limited to, the following:
a. Observation of environmental conditions; number and skill level of sheet metal workers; condition of substrate.
b. Verification that specified material is provided and installed.
c. Inspection of sheet metalwork, for proper size(s) and thickness(es), fastening and joining, and proper installation.
3.5.1 Procedure
