1 SPECIFICATION DATA SHEET PACE REPRESENTATIVES, INC. Pace Representatives Inc. One Rockdale Street Braintree MA ELBEX TRANSITION SILCONE SHEETING Manufacture Elbex 300 Martinel Drive Kent Ohio Basic Uses Elbex silicone sheet is used to form an air tight, water tight and flexible barrier at transitions between windows, store fronts, curtain walls, roof to wall joints, and other building components to complete the air barrier wall system. The MA Building Code reads as follows: MA Code Air Barriers. The building envelope shall be designed and constructed with a continuous air barrier to control air leakage into, or out of the conditioned space. An air barrier system shall also be provided for interior separations between conditioned space and space designed to maintain temperature or humidity levels which differ from those in the conditioned space by more than 50% of the difference between the conditioned space and design ambient conditions. The air barrier shall have the following characteristics: 1. It must be continuous, with all joints made airtight. 2. Materials used for the air barrier system shall have an air permeability not to exceed cfm/ft2 under a pressure differential of 0.3 in. water (1.57psf) (75 Pa) when tested in accordance with ASTM E Air barrier materials shall be taped or sealed in accordance with the manufacturer s instructions. 3. It shall be capable of withstanding positive and negative combined design wind, fan and stack pressures on the envelope without damage or displacement, and shall transfer the load to the structure. It shall not displace adjacent materials under full load. 4. Air barrier materials shall be maintainable, or, if inaccessible, shall meet the durability requirements for the service life of the envelope assembly.

2 SPECIFICATION DATA SHEET (CONT.) 5. The air barrier material of an envelope assembly shall be joined and sealed in a flexible manner to the air barrier material of adjacent assemblies, allowing for the relative movement of assemblies due to thermal and moisture variations and creep. Connections shall be made between: a. joints around fenestration and door frames b. junctions between walls and foundations, between walls at building corners, between walls and structural floors or roofs, and between walls and roof or wall panels c. openings at penetrations of utility services through roofs, walls, and floors d. site-built fenestration and doors e. building assemblies used as ducts or plenums f. joints, seams, and penetrations of vapor retarders g. all other openings in the building envelope Air Barrier Penetrations. All penetrations of the air barrier and paths of air infiltration/exfiltration shall be made air tight.
