About this file

This is a specification section for roof and deck insulation work at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, as part of Production Facility Repairs project SIOP 1740579. The specification covers Section 07 22 00 and was last updated November 18, 2018, with Amendment 009 dated March 16, 2026.

The specification requires polyisocyanurate board insulation per ASTM C1289 REV A Type II with fibrous felt or glass mat membrane on both sides and a minimum compressive strength of 20 pounds per square inch. Insulation must contain a minimum of 9 percent recovered material and be certified for indoor air quality by UL 2818 (Greenguard) Gold, SCS Global Services Indoor Advantage Gold, or equivalent third-party certification. A 1/2-inch glass mat gypsum cover board per ASTM C1177/C1177M with 0 flame spread rating must be installed over foam insulation. The specification mandates a vapor retarder with 0.02 perm rating and self-adhering SBS-modified adhesive. Roof insulation must achieve a flame spread rating of 75 or less per ASTM E84 and must be FM Class 1 approved when used as part of a specific roof assembly. Fasteners must comply with FM 4450 and FM Approval Guide requirements, with minimum holding power of 120 pounds in steel deck and spacing designed to withstand 90 pounds per square foot uplift pressure. Installation requires two staggered layers when total thickness exceeds 1/2 inch, with joints perpendicular to the roof slope and staggered between courses. Insulation must be completely covered with finished roofing on the same day of installation, with no phased construction permitted. The contractor must provide detailed shop drawings showing board layout and attachment methods, installer qualifications certification from the manufacturer, flame spread test reports, and compliance verification with all referenced standards. Quality control includes inspection of environmental conditions, fastener specifications, vapor retarder application, and verification of proper drainage slope to all roof drains.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION AND PREPARATION

3.1.1 Surface Inspection

Ensure surfaces are clean, smooth, and dry prior to application. Ensure surfaces receiving vapor retarder are free of projections that might puncture the vapor retarder. Check roof deck surfaces for defects before starting work.

The Contractor must inspect and approve the surfaces immediately before starting installation. Prior to installing moisture control and insulation, perform the following:

a. Examine wood decks to ascertain that deck boards have been properly nailed and that exposed nail heads have been set. b. Examine steel decks to ensure that panels are properly secured to structural members and to each other and that surfaces of top flanges are flat or slightly convex.

3.1.2 Surface Preparation

Correct defects and inaccuracies in roof deck surface to eliminate poor drainage from hollow or low spots, perform the following:

a. Provide wood blocking of the same thickness as the insulation at eaves, edges, curbs, walls, and roof openings for securing of cant flashing flanges. On decks with slopes of one in 12 (1 inch per foot) or more, install wood nailers perpendicular to slope for securing insulation and for backnailing of roofing felts.

b. Fill or cover cracks or knot holes larger than 1/2 inch in diameter in wood decks as necessary to form an unyielding surface.

3.2 INSTALLATION OF VAPOR RETARDER

Prime thermal barrier as recommended by vapor retarder manufacturer.

Install self-adhering membrane vapor retarder in direct contact with wood deck. Lay vapor retarder at right angles to the roof slope. Install vapor retarder with 3-inch side laps and 6-inch end laps. Roll vapor retarder as recommended by manufacturer.

3.3 INSULATION INSTALLATION

Apply insulation in two layers with staggered joints when total required thickness of insulation exceeds 1/2 inch. Lay insulation so that continuous longitudinal joints are perpendicular to direction of roofing, and end joints of each course are staggered with those of adjoining courses. When using multiple layers of insulation, provide joints of each succeeding layer that are parallel and offset in both directions with respect to the layer below. Keep insulation 1/2 inch clear of vertical surfaces penetrating and projecting from roof surface. Verify required slopes to each roof drain.

SECTION 07 22 00 Page 6

3.3.1 Special Precautions for Installation of Foam Insulation

3.3.1.1 Polyisocyanurate Insulation

Adhere 1/2 inch high-density polyisocyanurate cover board over top surface of foam board insulation. Stagger joints of cover board insulation with respect to foam board insulation below.

3.3.2 Cant Strips

Where indicated, provide cant strips at intersections of roof with walls, parapets, and curbs extending above roof. Wood cant strips must bear on and be anchored to wood blocking. Fit cant strips flush to vertical surfaces. Where possible, nail cant strips to adjoining surfaces. Where cant strips are installed against non-nailable materials, install in an approved adhesive.

3.4 PROTECTION

3.4.1 Protection of Applied Insulation

Completely cover each day's installation of insulation with finished roofing specified in 07 52 00 MODIFIED BITUMINOUS MEMBRANE ROOFING on same day. Phased construction is not permitted. Protect open spaces between insulation or other walls and spaces at curbs, until permanent roofing and flashing are applied. Storing, walking, wheeling, or trucking directly on insulation or on roofed surfaces is not permitted. Provide smooth, clean board or plank walkways, runways, and platforms near supports, as necessary, to distribute weight in accordance with indicated live load limits of roof construction. Protect exposed edges of insulation with cutoffs at the end of each work day or whenever precipitation is imminent. Cutoffs must be two layers of bituminous-saturated felt set in plastic bituminous cement or single ply set in roof cement. Fill all profile voids in cutoffs to prevent trapping moisture below the membrane.

Remove cutoffs when work resumes.

3.4.2 Damaged Work and Materials

Restore work and materials that become damaged during construction to original condition or replace with new materials.

3.5 INSPECTION

Establish and maintain inspection procedures to assure compliance of the installed roof insulation with contract requirements. Remove, replace, correct in an approved manner, any work found not in compliance. Quality control must include, but is not limited to, the following:

a. Observation of environmental conditions; number and skill level of insulation workers; start and end time of work.

b. Verification of certification, listing or label compliance with FM Data Sheets. ( https://www.fmglobal.com/fmglobalregistration/Downloads.aspx )

c. Verification of proper storage and handling of insulation and vapor retarder materials before, during, and after installation .

d. Inspection of vapor retarder application, including edge envelopes and

SECTION 07 22 00 Page 7 attachment.

e. Inspection of mechanical fasteners; type, number, length, and spacing.

f. Coordination with other materials, cants, sleepers, and blocking.

g. Inspection of insulation joint orientation and laps between layers, joint width and bearing of edges of insulation on deck.

h. Installation of cutoffs and proper joining of work on subsequent days.

i. Continuation of complete roofing system installation to cover insulation installed same day.

j. Verification of required slope to each roof drain.
