<br /> <br />THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 031000 -5 <br />B. All Waterstop field joints shall be subject to rigid inspection, and no such WORK shall be <br />scheduled or started without having made prior arrangements with the ENGINEER for the <br />required inspections. Not less than 24 hours’ notice shall be given for scheduling such <br />inspections. <br />C. Field joints in Waterstop shall be subject to rigid inspection for misalignment, bubbles, <br />inadequate bond, porosity, cracks, offsets, and other defects, which would reduce the <br />potential resistance of the material to water pressure at any point. Defective joints shall <br />be replaced with material, which passes inspection; faulty material shall be removed from <br />the site and properly disposed of. <br />D. The following Waterstop defects represent a partial list of defects which shall be grounds <br />for rejection: <br /> <br />1. Offsets at joints greater than 1/16-inch or 15 percent of material thickness, at any <br />point, whichever is less. <br /> <br />2. Exterior crack at joint, due to incomplete bond, which is deeper than 1/16-inch or <br />15 percent of material thickness, at any point, whichever is less. <br /> <br />3. Any combination of offset or exterior crack which will result in a net reduction in <br />the cross section of the Waterstop in excess of 1/16-inch or 15 percent of material <br />thickness at any point, whichever is less. <br /> <br />4. Misalignment of joint which results in misalignment of the Waterstop in excess of <br />1/2-inch in 10 feet. <br /> <br />5. Porosity in the welded joint as evidenced by visual inspection. <br /> <br />6. Bubbles or inadequate bonding which can be detected with a penknife test. (If, <br />while prodding the entire joint with the point of a penknife, the knife breaks <br />through the outer portion of the weld into a bubble, the joint shall be considered <br />defective.) <br /> <br />7. Visible signs of separation when the cooled splice is bent by hand at any sharp <br />angle. <br /> <br />8. Any evidence of burned material. <br /> <br />1.8 WARRANTY: <br /> <br />A. The CONTRACTOR shall furnish a 5-year written warranty of the entire sealant installation <br />against faulty and/or incompatible materials and workmanship, together with a statement <br />that it agrees to repair or replace, to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER, any such defective <br />areas which become evident within said 5-year guarantee period. <br />PART 2 - PRODUCTS <br /> <br />2.1 FORM AND FALSEWORK MATERIALS: <br />
