PART 3 EXECUTION

3.01 PREPARATION
A. General: Prepare substrate in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Concrete:
a. Prior to proceeding please refer to ASTM F710 Standard Practice for Preparing Concrete Floors to Receive Resilient Flooring. All concrete subfloors must be sound, solid, clean, and free of all oil, grease, dirt, curing compounds and any substance that might act as a bond breaker before priming. Mechanically clean if necessary using shot blasting or other. Acid etching and the use of sweeping compounds and solvents are not acceptable.
b. Substrates shall be inspected in accordance with ASTM F2170 and corrected for moisture or any other conditions that could affect the performance of the underlayment or the finished floor covering. For areas where moisture vapor emissions exceed the required limits coordinate with Basis-of-Design Manufacturer to install an appropriate Moisture Control System.

B. Crack and Joint Preparation:

1. Moving Joints and Moving Cracks – honor all expansion, isolation joints and moving cracks up through the underlayment. Install a flexible sealing compound per Basis-of Design Manufacturer’s instructions.

SECTION 03 54 13 HYDRAULIC CEMENT UNDERLAYMENT
HYDRAULIC CEMENT UNDERLAYMENT 03 54 13 - 4 of 5

2. Saw Cuts, Dormant Control Joints and Dormant Cracks – fill all dormant control joints and dormant cracks with a Low Viscosity Rigid Polyurethane Crack & Joint Repair or Cement-Based Finish Underlayment as recommended by the manufacturer.

C. Wooden subfloors: The wood subfloor either must be solid hardwood flooring; a minimum of 3/4” (19 mm) tongue-and-groove, APA-rated Type 1, exterior exposure plywood; or an approved OSB equivalent. The wood subfloor must be constructed according to prevailing building codes and must be solid and securely fixed to provide a rigid base free of undue flex. Any boards exhibiting movement must be refastened to create a sound, solid subfloor. The wood must be clean and free of all foreign matter. If necessary, sand down to bare wood. Vacuum to remove all dust. Do not use solvent, strippers or cleaners.

Open joints should be filled as recommended by the Basis-of-Design manufacturer. It is the responsibility of the installation contractor to ensure that the wood subfloor is thoroughly clean and properly anchored prior to installation.

D. Metal subfloors: Metal subfloors must be rigid, well supported, properly anchored and free of undue flex and vibration. They must also be clean and free of all rust, corrosion and foreign matter.

1. Non-lead metal substrates must be mechanically cleaned and profiled to create a bonding surface. Please note that care must be taken when mechanically preparing thin metal foils so that the metal foil is not compromised. Use an #80 or #100 grit sanding screen to mechanically profile the metal surface. A hand or floor sander may be used. After sanding, thoroughly deep vacuum to remove all loose material, and then wipe the metal using a clean, white cloth dampened with 91% isopropyl alcohol. Repeat wiping using a new cloth on each pass until the degree of discoloration on the cloth remains consistent on subsequent passes (typically, approx. 5 – 7 passes). Lightly shot blasting also is suitable. From this point until the metal has been primed, disposable shoe covers should be worn by anyone traversing the surface of the prepared metal. Allow 15 – 20 minutes for residual alcohol to evaporate before proceeding. Contact the Technical Service Department for guidelines on preparing lead substrates.

E. Adhesive residues on concrete must first be tested to make certain they are not watersoluble. Water-soluble adhesives must be completely mechanically removed down to clean concrete. Non- water-soluble adhesives should be prepared to a thin, well-bonded residue using the wet-scraping technique as recommended by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute (www.rfci.com). The prepared residue should appear as nothing more than a transparent stain on the concrete after scraping.

F. Non-porous subfloors such as ceramic, porcelain and quarry tile, burnished concrete, epoxy coating systems as well as terrazzo should be clean and free of all waxes, sealers, dust, dirt, debris and any other contaminant that may act as a bond breaker. If necessary, clean by mechanical methods such as shot blasting.

3.02 APPLICATION
A. Examine substrates and conditions under which materials will be installed. Do not proceed with installation until unsatisfactory conditions are corrected.

B. Coordinate installation with adjacent work to ensure proper sequence of construction.

Protect adjacent areas from contact due to mixing and handling of materials.

C. Priming: Comply with manufacturer’s printed instructions

SECTION 03 54 13 HYDRAULIC CEMENT UNDERLAYMENT
HYDRAULIC CEMENT UNDERLAYMENT 03 54 13 - 5 of 5
D. Mixing: Comply with manufacturer's printed instructions and the following.

1. For pump installations, the hydraulic cement underlayment shall be mixed using the Manufacturer’s recommended Automatic Mixing Pumps.

E. Application: Comply with manufacturer's printed instructions and the following:

1. Installations over metal and other non-porous substrates should be limited to a thickness of 1/2” (12.7 mm) unless otherwise approved by the Basis-of-Design Manufacturer. For all other substrates, self-leveling underlayment must be installed at a minimum thickness of 1/8” (3 mm) over the highest point in the floor, which typically results in an average thickness of 1/4” (6 mm) or more over the entire floor. Self-leveling underlayment can be installed up to 1 1/2” (4 cm) over large areas neat, and up to 5” (12.7 cm) with the addition of proper aggregate. Featheredge to match existing elevations. Confer with the Basis-ofDesign Manufacturer if a true featheredge is needed.

2. Pour or pump the liquid and spread into place with Spreader. Immediately use the Smoother to smooth the surface. Wear non- metallic cleats to avoid leaving marks in the liquid.

3. Wood subfloors require mesh-reinforced Resilient Emulsion Underlayment System. After priming, install 3.4 galvanized diamond metal lath by stapling to the wooden subfloor approximately every 6 inches to center.

4. Metal subfloors require Resilient Emulsion Underlayment System.

F. Curing

1. Finished product can be walked on in 2-3 hours. Moisture-insensitive tiles such as ceramic, quarry and porcelain can be installed after 6 hours. All other finish floor coverings can be installed after 16 hours at 70°F (21°C). For resinous systems such as epoxy and polyurethane floors please contact the Basis-ofDesign Manufacturer.

3.03 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Where specified, field sampling of the underlayment is to be done by taking an entire unopened bag of the product being installed to an independent testing facility to perform compressive strength testing in accordance with ASTM C 109/modified: air-cure only.

There are no in situ test procedures for the evaluation of compressive strength.

3.04 PROTECTION
A. Prior to the installation of the finish flooring, the surface of the underlayment should be protected from abuse by other trades by the use of plywood, Masonite or other suitable protection course.
