NOTE: WHEN HAND WELDING LAPS OF MECHANICALLY ATTACHED FIELD AND PERIMETER SHEETS, TACK WELDING IS NOT ADVISABLE, USE WEIGHTS OR METAL TRACKS TO HOLD THE SEAM IN PLACE FOR WELDING. 2. The back edge of the lap shall be welded with a thin, continuous weld to prevent loss of hot air during the final welding REINFORCED SINGLE-PLY Wash. Co. Administration Complex MEMBRANE ROOFING

16 3. The hot air nozzle shall be inserted into the lap, at a 45 degree angle. Once the proper welding temperature has been reached and the material starts to flow, and the roller shall be applied at a right angle to the welding gun and pressed lightly. For straight laps, the 1-1/2 wide nozzle shall be used. For corners and compound connections, the ¾ wide nozzle shall be used. C. Machine Welding: Machine welded seams may be achieved by the use of Sarnafil's various automatic welding equipment. When using this equipment, the manufacturer's instructions shall be followed and local codes for electric supply, grounding and over current protection observed. The automatic welding machines require 218 to 230 volts at amps. The use of a portable generator is recommended. D. Quality Control of Welded Seams: All completed welded seams shall be checked after cooling for continuity using a rounded screwdriver or other suitable blunt object by the roofing contractor. Visible evidence that welding is proceeding acceptably is smoke during the welding operation, shiny membrane surfaces, and an uninterrupted flow of black material from the edge of completed joints. On-site evaluation of welded seams shall be made daily by the contractor to locations as directed by the owner's representative or Sarnafil's representative. Two inch wide cross-section samples shall be taken three times a day minimum through completed seams. Correct welds display failure from shearing of the membrane prior to separation of the weld. Each test cut shall be patched by the contractor at no extra charge to the owner. E. 15 wide metal tracks must be used over the deck sheet and under the machine to avoid wrinkles. 3-8 WALKWAY INSTALLATION A. Walkways shall be provided for regular maintenance of rooftop equipment and for roof areas subject to foot traffic. B. SarnaTred Installation: Roofing membrane to receive SarnaTred shall be clean and dry. 1. Chalk lines on deck sheet to indicate location of SarnaTred. 2. SarnaTred shall be unrolled and positioned within chalk lines. 3. Hot-air weld the perimeter of the SarnaTred to the Sarnafil deck sheet. Check all welds with a rounded screwdriver. Reweld any inconsistencies. 3.9 MEMBRANE FLASHINGS A. All flashings shall be installed concurrently with the roof membrane as the job progresses. No temporary flashings shall be allowed without the prior written approval of the project manager and Sarnafil. Approval shall only be for specific locations on specific dates. Flashings shall be adhered to compatible, dry smooth, and solvent-resistant surfaces. B. Sarnacol 2170 Contact Adhesive: Over the properly installed and prepared substrate surface, Sarnacol 2170 adhesive shall be applied using approved solvent-resistant ¾ nap paint rollers. The adhesive shall be applied at a rate of approximately 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 gallons per 100 sq. ft. of surface depending upon substrate. The adhesive shall be applied in smooth, even coatings with no holidays, globs, puddles or similar irregularities. Only an area which can be completely covered in the same day's operations shall be coated with adhesive. The surface with adhesive coating shall be allowed to dry completely prior to installing the membrane. Note: Drying time increases with cooler temperatures. Also, the contractor is cautioned against work on days of high humidity because of extremely slow evaporation of the solvent. The Contractor shall check with the Sarnafil technical representative prior to roof operations on such days. Wash. Co. Administration Complex REINFORCED SINGLE-PLY MEMBRANE ROOFING

17 1. When the surface is dry, the Sarnafil flashing membrane is cut to a workable length and the underside shall be evenly coated with Sarnacol 2170 adhesive at a rate of ½ gallon per 100 sq. ft. When the adhesive has dried sufficiently to produce strings when touched with a dry finger, the coated membrane shall be rolled onto the previously-coated substrate being careful to avoid wrinkles. Do not allow adhesive on the underside of the Sarnafil membrane to completely dry. The amount of membrane that can be coated with adhesive before applying to substrate will be determined by ambient temperature, humidity, and manpower. Adjacent sheets shall be overlapped a minimum of 4. Sarnafil flashings shall extend 5 onto the roofing membrane. The bonded sheet shall be pressed firmly in place with a hand roller. 2. No bonding adhesives shall be applied in lap areas that are to be welded to flashings or adjacent sheets. All sheets shall be applied in the same manner, lapping all sheets as required by welding techniques. C. Sarnafil's requirements and recommendations and the specifications shall be followed. All material submittals shall have been accepted by Sarnafil prior to installation. D. All flashings shall extend a minimum of 8 above roofing level unless previously accepted by owner's representative and Sarnafil. E. All flashing membranes shall be adhered to substrates. All interior and exterior corners and miters shall be cut and hot-air welded into place. No bituminous elements shall be in contact with the Sarnafil membrane. F. All flashings shall be hot-air welded at their joints and at their connections with the roof membrane. G. All flashing membranes shall be mechanically fastened along the top edge through tin discs spaced a maximum of 1 foot o.c., or predrilled metal strips. Expansion pins with nylon sheaths set in predrilled holes shall be used to secure flashings to masonry and concrete surfaces. H. Sarnafil flashings shall be terminated according to Sarnafil recommended details METAL FLASHINGS A. Metal details, fabrication practices and installation methods shall conform to the applicable requirements of the following: 1. Factory Mutual Loss Prevention Data Sheet 1-49 (latest issue). 2.

18 3.11 TEMPORARY CUT-OFF A. All flashings shall be installed concurrently with the roof membrane in order to maintain a watertight condition as the work progresses. When a break in the day's work occurs in the central area of a roof, a temporary waterstop shall be constructed to provide a 100% watertight seal. When work on the new system is suspended, the stagger of the insulation joints shall be maintained by installing partial fillers. The new membrane shall be carried into the waterstop. The waterstop shall be sealed to the deck and/or substrate so that water will not be allowed to travel under the new or existing roofing. The edge of the membrane shall be sealed in a continuous heavy application of roof cement of 6 girth. When work resumes, the contaminated PVC membrane shall be cut out. All sealant, contaminated membrane, insulation fillers, etc. shall be removed from the work area and disposed of off site. None of these materials shall be used in the new work. B. If inclement weather occurs while a temporary waterstop is in place, the contractor shall provide the labor necessary to monitor the situation to maintain a watertight condition. C. If any water is allowed to enter under the newly-completed roofing, the affected area shall be removed and replaced at the contractor's expense COMPLETION A. Prior to demobilization from the site, the work shall be reviewed by the owner/project manager and contractor.
