Air Barrier Assembly Air Leakage: Not to exceed ASTM E 283. <br />1.6 SUBMITTALS <br />A. Product Data: Include manufacturer's written instructions for evaluating, preparing, and treating <br />substrate; technical data; and tested physical and performance properties of air barrier. <br />B. Shop Drawings: Show locations and extent of air barrier. Include details for substrate joints and cracks, <br />counterflashing strip, penetrations, inside and outside corners, terminations, and tie-ins with adjoining <br />construction. <br />1. Include details of interfaces with other materials that form part of air barrier. <br />2. Include details of mockups. <br />C. Product Certificates: For air barriers, certifying compatibility of air barrier and accessory materials with <br />Project materials that connect to or that come in contact with the barrier; signed by product manufacturer. <br />D. Qualification Data: For Applicator. <br />E. Product Test Reports: Based on evaluation of comprehensive tests performed by a qualified testing <br />agency, for air barriers. <br />1.7 QUALITY ASSURANCE <br />A. Submit document stating the applicator of the primary air/vapor barrier membranes specified in this <br />section is qualified by the manufacturer as suitable for the execution of the Work. <br />B. Applicator Qualifications: A firm experienced in applying air barrier materials similar in material, <br />design, and extent to those indicated for this Project, whose work has resulted in applications with a <br />record of successful in-service performance and that is an ABAA-licensed contractor, employs <br />certified and registered installers, and complies with ABAA's Quality Assurance Program. <br />C. Components used shall be sourced from one manufacturer, including sheet membrane, air barrier <br />sealants, primers, mastics, and adhesives. <br />D. Single-Source Responsibility: <br />1. Obtain air barrier materials from a single manufacturer regularly engaged in manufacturing the <br />product. <br />2. Provide products which comply with all state and local regulations controlling use of volatile <br />organic compounds (VOCs). <br />E. Mockups: Before beginning installation of air barrier, build mockups of exterior wall assembly <br />incorporating backup wall construction, external cladding, window, door frame and sill, insulation, and <br />flashing to demonstrate surface preparation, crack and joint treatment, and sealing of gaps, terminations, <br />and penetrations of air barrier membrane. <br />1. Coordinate construction of mockup to permit inspection by Owner's testing agency of air barrier <br />before external insulation and cladding is installed. <br />2. Include junction with roofing membrane, building corner condition, and foundation wall <br />intersection. <br />3. If Architect determines mockups do not comply with requirements, reconstruct mockups and <br />apply air barrier until mockups are approved. <br />4. Approved mockups may become part of the completed Work if undisturbed at time of Substantial <br />Completion. <br />F. Preinstallation Conference: Conduct conference at Project site. <br />1. Include installers of other construction connecting to air barrier, including roofing, waterproofing, <br />architectural precast concrete, masonry, sealants, windows, glazed curtain walls, and door frames. <br />2. Review air barrier requirements including surface preparation, substrate condition and <br />pretreatment, minimum substrate curing period, forecasted weather conditions, special details and <br />sheet flashings, mockups, installation procedures, sequence of installation, testing and inspecting <br />procedures, and protection and repairs. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 51195338-6F17-4D2B-B990-4A82329E7F4E
