RECEIVE D THERMAL INSULATION 0729A/ 0/2023 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT OZ ARCHITECTURE GRAVITY HAUS ASPEN CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS PROJECT NUMBER#123034 MARCH 24,2023 ASPEN,COLORADO PART 3 -EXECUTION 3.1 INSTALLATION,GENERAL A. Comply with insulation manufacturer's written instructions applicable to products and application indicated. B. Install insulation that is undamaged, dry, and unsoiled and that has not been left exposed at any time to ice,rain,and snow. C. Extend insulation in thickness indicated to envelop entire area to be insulated. Cut and fit tightly around obstructions and fill voids with insulation. Remove projections that interfere with placement. D. Water-Piping Coordination: If water piping is located within insulated exterior walls,coordinate location of piping to ensure that it is placed on warm side of insulation and insulation encapsulates piping. E. For preformed insulating units, provide sizes to fit applications indicated and selected from manufacturer's standard thicknesses, widths, and lengths. Apply single layer of insulation units to produce thickness indicated unless multiple layers are otherwise shown or required to make up total thickness. 3.2 INSTALLATION OF EXTERIOR CONTINUOUS INSULATION A. On units of foam-plastic board insulation, install pads of adhesive spaced approximately 24 inches (610 mm) o.c. both ways on inside face, and as recommended by manufacturer. Fit courses of insulation between wall ties and other obstructions, with edges butted tightly in both directions. Press units firmly against inside substrates indicated. B. Supplement adhesive attachment of insulation by securing boards with two-piece wall ties designed for this purpose and specified in Division 04 Section"Unit Masonry." 3.3 INSTALLATION OF GENERAL BUILDING INSULATION A. Apply insulation units to substrates by method indicated, complying with manufacturer's written instructions. If no specific method is indicated, bond units to substrate with adhesive or use mechanical anchorage to provide permanent placement and support of units. B. Seal joints between foam-plastic insulation units by applying adhesive,mastic,or sealant to edges of each unit to form a tight seal as units are shoved into place. Fill voids in completed installation with adhesive, mastic,or sealant as recommended by insulation manufacturer. RECEIVED THERMAL INSULATION 0729A/10/2023 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT OZ ARCHITECTURE GRAVITY HAUS ASPEN CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS PROJECT NUMBER#123034 MARCH 24,2023 ASPEN,COLORADO C. Set vapor-retarder-faced units with vapor retarder to warm-in-winter side of construction, unless otherwise indicated. D. Tape joints and ruptures in vapor retarder, and seal each continuous area of insulation to surrounding construction to ensure airtight installation. E. Install mineral-fiber insulation in cavities formed by framing members according to the following requirements: F. Use insulation widths and lengths that fill the cavities formed by framing members. If more than one length is required to fill cavity,provide lengths that will produce a snug fit between ends. G. Place insulation in cavities formed by framing members to produce a friction fit between edges of insulation and adjoining framing members. H. Maintain 3-inch(76-mm)clearance of insulation around recessed lighting fixtures. I. Install eave ventilation troughs between roof framing members in insulated attic spaces at vented eaves. J. For metal-framed wall cavities where cavity heights exceed 96 inches (2438 mm), support unfaced blankets mechanically and support faced blankets by taping flanges of insulation to flanges of metal studs. K. Stuff glass-fiber loose-fill insulation into miscellaneous voids and cavity spaces where shown. Compact to approximately 40 percent of normal maximum volume equaling a density of approximately 2.5 lb/cu. ft.(40 kg/cu.m). 3.4 PROTECTION A. Protect installed insulation from damage due to harmful weather exposures, physical abuse, and other causes. Provide temporary coverings or enclosures where insulation is subject to abuse and cannot be concealed and protected by permanent construction immediately after installation.
