PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.1 INSTALLATION A. General: Waterproofing works shall be executed by a specialized Sub-Contractor recommended by the waterproofing and/or lining manufacturer and approved by the Engineer. Comply with waterproofing and/or lining manufacturer's recommendations regarding installation details, surface preparation, and torch applied process, priming of surfaces as well as the overlapping. Substrate shall be smooth, hard dry and free from high spots and depressions. Substrate shall be swept clean and free from dust, loose cement scale, oil, grease, foreign substances and debris. Starting at the low point of the slab, apply the waterproofing membrane loose laid for horizontal areas with minimum 50 mm overlap. All the joints shall be welded with hot air. Lay non-woven polyester fabric separation layer over waterproofing membrane prior to application of other finishing. On vertical areas, apply the waterproofing membrane mechanically fixed to walls with minimum 50 mm overlap. Use waterproofing manufacturer's standard fasteners with PVC covering for welding to the membrane. All the joints shall be welded with hot air. Apply protection board prior to backfilling. Test the work after completion by water flooding to a minimum height of 75 mm for a period of 48 hours.
