BEARDSLEY DESIGN ASSOCIATES CORNELL – NCP ANTISTATIC RESILIENT TILE FLOORING STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 09 65 37 PAGE 4 OF 7 NOVEMBER 2, 2012 PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 EXAMINATION A. Examine substrates, with Installer present, for compliance with requirements for maximum moisture content and other conditions affecting performance of the Work. B. Verify that finishes of substrates comply with tolerances and other requirements specified in other Sections and that substrates are free of cracks, ridges, depressions, scale, and foreign deposits that might interfere with adhesion of floor tile. C. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected. 3.2 PREPARATION A. Prepare substrates according to manufacturer's written instructions to ensure adhesion of resilient products. B. Concrete Substrates: Prepare according to ASTM F 710. 1. Verify that substrates are dry and free of curing compounds, sealers, and hardeners. 2. Remove substrate coatings and other substances that are incompatible with adhesives and that contain soap, wax, oil, or silicone, using mechanical methods recommended by manufacturer. Do not use solvents. 3. Alkalinity and Adhesion Testing: Perform tests recommended by manufacturer. Proceed with installation only after substrates pass testing. C. Fill cracks, holes, and depressions in substrates with trowelable leveling and patching compound and remove bumps and ridges to produce a uniform and smooth substrate. D. Do not install floor tiles until they are same temperature as space where they are to be installed. 1. Move resilient products and installation materials into spaces where they will be installed at least 48 hours in advance of installation. E. Sweep and vacuum clean substrates to be covered by resilient products immediately before installation. BEARDSLEY DESIGN ASSOCIATES CORNELL – NCP ANTISTATIC RESILIENT TILE FLOORING STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 09 65 37 PAGE 5 OF 7 NOVEMBER 2, 2012 3.3 FLOOR TILE INSTALLATION A. Install staticcontrol resilient flooring accord ing to manufacturer’s written instructions B. Embed grounding strips in staticcontr ol adhesive. Extend grounding strips beyond perimeter of staticcontrol resilient floorcovering surfaces to ground connections. C. Scribe, cut, and fit staticcontrol resilient fl ooring to butt neatly and tightly to vertical surfaces and permanent fixtures including builtin furniture, cabinets, pipes, outlets, and door frames. D. Install staticcontrol resilient flooring on cov ers for telephone and electrical ducts, and similar items in installation areas. Maintain overall continuity of color and pattern with pieces of staticcontrol resilient flooring installed on covers. Tightly adhere staticcontrol resilient flooring edges to substrates that abut covers and to cover perimeters. E. Adhere staticcontrol resilient flooring to subs trates using a full spread of staticcontrol adhesive applied to substrate to pro duce a completed installation without open cracks, voids, raising and puckering at joints, telegraphing of adhesive spreader marks, and other surface imperfections. 3.4 CLEANING AND PROTECTION A. Comply with manufacturer's written instructions for cleaning and protection of floor tile. B. Perform the following operations immediately after completing floor tile installation: 1. Remove adhesive and other blemishes from exposed surfaces. 2. Sweep and vacuum surfaces thoroughly. 3. Dampmop surfaces to remove marks and soil. C. Protect floor tile products from mars, marks, indentations, and other damage from construction operations and placement of equipment and fixtures during remainder of construction period. D. Cover floor tile with Ram Board Protective Card Board secured by painters tape and one layer of hard board or equal until substantial completion by Div 23 and Division 27 Contractors. E. After substantial completion by Division 27 Contractor, but prior to final project closeout. If recommended in writing by manufacturer, apply protective staticcontrol floor polish formulated t o maintain or enhance floor covering's electrical properties; ensure staticcontrol resilient flooring BEARDSLEY DESIGN ASSOCIATES CORNELL – NCP ANTISTATIC RESILIENT TILE FLOORING STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 09 65 37 PAGE 6 OF 7 NOVEMBER 2, 2012 surfaces are free from soil, staticcontrol adhesiv e, and surface blemishes. Do not apply standard wax. a. Verify that both floor polish and its application method are approved by manufacturer and that floor polish will not leave an insulating film that reduces staticcontrol resilient flooring's ef fectiveness for static control. F. Provide final cleaning – at final acceptance, as directed by Owner.
