- Examination
- Verify that substrates, including those installed by others, are acceptable for product installation in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
- Verify that substrates for walls are level and square.
- Report adverse conditions in writing. Do not proceed with installation until adverse conditions are corrected.
- Installation
- Install in accordance with contract documents and manufacturer's installation instructions, including product data, additional engineering details, and technical bulletins.
- Resolve conflicts between contract documents and manufacturer's installation instructions in writing.
- Do not deviate from manufacturer's standard details or load design values, unless authorized by Architect.
- Do not install plumbing in panels without consulting panel manufacturer.
- Do not cut skins for electrical chases.
- Provide adequate bracing of panels during erection.
- Connect panels to panels using plates, splines and nails or staples with specified adhesive/sealant, and connect panels to framing using nails or staples with specified adhesive/sealant.
- Screws of equal strength may be substituted for nails and staples when used at an equivalency frequency with specified adhesive/sealant.
- Apply adhesive/sealant in a 1/4" (6 mm) bead to wood surfaces for optimum coating.
- Seal joints between adjacent foam insulation with specified adhesive/sealant.
- Cleaning and Protection
- Protect installed products and finish surfaces from damage during construction and until completion of project.
- Roof Panels: Cover with temporary protection immediately if wet weather is eminent. Install permanent roofing materials as soon as possible, preventing water, snow or ice contact on exposed panel joints or faces.
- Wall Panels: Install permanent weather resistant covering as soon as possible. If more than 3 weeks will elapse before permanent covering is to be installed or if repeated precipitation is expected, install temporary breathable weather resistant covering.
- Repair or replace damaged installed products.
- Remove construction debris from project site and legally dispose of debris.
