<br />THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 079210 -6 <br />G. Immediately after sealant installation and prior to time skimming or curing begins, tool <br />nonsag sealants to form smooth uniform beads of configuration indicated, to eliminate air <br />pockets and to ensure contact and adhesion of sealant with sides of joint. Do not use <br />tooling agents that discolor sealants or adjacent surfaces or are not approved by sealant <br />manufacturer. Remove excess sealant from surfaces adjacent to joint. <br /> <br />3.3 CURE AND PROTECTION: <br /> <br />A. Cure sealants in compliance with manufacturer's printed instructions and <br />recommendations, to obtain high early bond strength, internal cohesive strength and <br />surface durability. Cure and protect sealants in a manner that will minimize increases in <br />modulus of elasticity and other accelerated aging effects. Replace or restore sealants that <br />are damaged or deteriorated during construction period. Repaired areas shall be <br />indistinguishable from original work. <br /> <br />3.4 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL: <br /> <br />A. After nominal cure of exterior joint sealants which are exposed to weather, test for water <br />leaks as follows: <br /> <br />1. Flood joint exposure with water directed from a 3/4-inch garden hose and <br />connected to water system with 25-psi minimum static water pressure. <br /> <br />2. Hold hose perpendicular to wall face, 2 feet-0 inches from joint, and move stream <br />of water along joint at approximate rate of 20 feet per minute. <br /> <br />B. Repair sealant installation at leaks or, if leakage is excessive, replace sealant installation as <br />required. Do not perform repair or replacement work until joints are dry. <br /> <br />END OF SECTION
