Slab substrates are dry and free of curing compounds, sealers, hardeners, residual adhesives, adhesive removers, and other materials whose presence would interfere with bonding of adhesive. Determine adhesion and dryness characteristics by performing bond and moisture tests recommended by manufacturer. 2. Finishes of subfloors comply with tolerances and other requirements specified in Division 03 Section, "Cast-In-Place Concrete" for slabs receiving resilient flooring. 3. Subfloor Moisture Conditions: Before installing flooring Contractor shall verify that Moisture emission rate of not more than 3 lb/1000 sq. ft./24 hours when tested by calcium chloride moisture test in compliance with CRI 104, 6.2.1, with subfloor temperatures not less than 55 deg F, or as recommended by manufacturer. 4. Subfloor Alkalinity Conditions: Before installing flooring Contractor shall verify that a ph range of 5 to 9 when subfloor is wetted with potable water and phydrion paper is applied 3.03 PREPARATION A. General: Comply with manufacturer's installation specifications for preparing substrates to receive products indicated. 1. Comply with Armstrong Guaranteed Installation Manual F-5061, or equivalent by other listed manufacturers. B. Sweep and vacuum clean substrates to be covered by floor coverings immediately before installation. After cleaning, examine substrates for moisture, alkaline salts, carbonation, and dust. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected. C. This Contractor to remove coatings, including curing compounds, adhesives, plastics, and other substances that are incompatible with flooring adhesives and that contain soap, wax, oil, or silicone, by using a terrazzo or concrete grinder, a drum sander, or a polishing machine equipped with a heavy-duty wire brush. Surface to receive new flooring shall be fully prepared, including removal of existing materials not acceptable for proper installation of new materials, as required by manufacturer. Do not use solvents. 1. Prep floor according to ASTM F710 criteria. D. Slab Primers: 1. Allow to dry thoroughly before skimming with floor patch E. Underlayment or Leveling Compound: Use leveling compound as recommended by flooring manufacturer for filling small cracks and depressions in subfloors. All rough areas, projections, ridges, and bumps shall be removed. 1. Vinyl Composition Floor Tile: Apply underlayment or leveling compound in compliance with manufacturer's directions. 2. Sheet Vinyl Flooring: Skim coat the entire subfloor with Armstrong "S-184 Fast-Setting Cement-Based Patch and Skim Coat", or approved substitution, using a smooth-edge finishing trowel filling in the recessed areas to provide a smooth finished substrate to receive the sheet vinyl.

8 3.04 INSTALLATION - GENERAL A. Install flooring after finishing operations, including painting, have been completed. Moisture content of concrete slabs, building air temperature, and relative humidity must be within limits recommended by flooring manufacturer's directions. B. Patch and repair floors and walls to receive flooring for proper installation of flooring, stair accessories, and base. C. Place flooring with adhesive cement in strict compliance with manufacturer's recommendations. Butt tightly to vertical surfaces and edgings. Scribe around obstructions and to produce neat joints, laid tight, even, and straight. Extend flooring into toe spaces. D. Maintain reference markers, holes, or openings that are in place or plainly marked for future cutting by repeating on finish flooring as marked on subfloor. Use chalk or other nonpermanent marking device. E. Install flooring on covers for telephone and electrical ducts and other such items as occur within finished floor areas. F. Maintain overall continuity of color and pattern with pieces of flooring installed in these covers. Tightly cement edges to perimeter of floor around covers and to covers. G. Tightly cement flooring to subbase without open cracks, voids, raising and puckering at joints, telegraphing of adhesive spreader marks, or other surface imperfections ACCESSORIES A. Stair Nosings: 1. Use stair-tread-nose filler, according to resilient tread manufacturer's written instructions, to fill nosing substrates that do not conform to tread contours. 2. Apply resilient products to stairs as indicated and according to manufacturer's written installation instructions CLEANING AND PROTECTION A. Perform the following operations immediately after installing resilient floor coverings: 1. Remove adhesive and other surface blemishes using cleaner recommended by floor covering manufacturer. 2. Sweep or vacuum floor thoroughly. 3. Do not wash floor covering until after time period recommended by floor covering manufacturer. 4. Damp-mop floor to remove marks and soil. B. Protect flooring against mars, marks, indentations, and other damage from construction operations and placement of equipment and fixtures during remainder of construction period. Use protection methods indicated or recommended by manufacturer of resilient product involved. END OF SECTION PAGE 8
