BASELINE INDOOR AIR QUALITY TESTING
A.
After construction ends and prior to occupancy, conduct a baseline indoor air quality testing
procedure that randomly selects sampling points for every 25,000 sq. ft., or for each contiguous
floor area, whichever is larger, to measure the maximum concentration levels for the chemical
contaminates below:
1.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2): Maximum concentration of 530 parts per million per ASHRAE
62.
a.
2.
3.
4.
5.
B.
3.4
This measurement is required only if the building is regularly occupied during the
testing. Measured differential between indoor and outdoor conditions is based on
occupancy type as defined by ASHRAE 62. Maximum concentration differential
in parts per million = 10,300/ventilation rate per occupant, in cubic feet per
minute, assuming an occupancy of 7 persons per 1000 sq. ft. of floor space.
Formaldehyde: 50 parts per billion per State of Washington IAQ Standard.
Particulates: 150 micrograms per cubic meter per EPA National Ambient Air Quality
Standard.
TVOC: 500 micrograms per cubic meter per State of Washington IAQ Standard.
4-PCH: 6.5 micrograms per cubic meter per State of Washington IAQ Standard.
For each building area where the maximum concentration limits are exceeded, conduct a partial
building flushout, for a maximum of two weeks, then retest the indoor air quality levels to
indicate the requirements are achieved.
IAQ MANAGEMENT – INDOOR CHEMICAL AND POLLUTANT SOURCE CONTROL
A.
General: Minimize building occupant exposure to potentially hazardous particulates, biological
contaminants, and chemical pollutants that degrade air and water quality.
B.
Exhaust Air: Sufficiently exhaust each space where hazardous gases or chemicals may be
present or used to create negative pressure with respect to adjacent spaces when doors to the
room are closed.
1.
2.
For each of these spaces, provide permanent construction or use temporary facilities for
self-closing doors, deck-to-deck partitions, and ceiling assemblies.
Exhaust rate: Provide minimum 0.50 cubic feet per minute (CFM) per square foot, with
no air recirculation. The pressure differential with surrounding spaces shall be a
minimum 5 Pascals (Pa) (0.02 inches of water gauge) on average and 1 Pa (0.004 inches
of water) at a minimum when doors to the rooms are closed.

systems to comply with firestop system manufacturer's written instructions and with the
following requirements:
1.
2.
3.
Remove from surfaces of opening substrates and from penetrating items foreign materials
that could interfere with adhesion of through-penetration firestop systems.
Clean opening substrates and penetrating items to produce clean, sound surfaces capable of
developing optimum bond with through-penetration firestop systems. Remove loose
particles remaining from cleaning operation.
Remove laitance and form-release agents from concrete.
B.
Priming: Prime substrates where recommended in writing by through-penetration firestop
system manufacturer using that manufacturer's recommended products and methods. Confine
primers to areas of bond; do not allow spillage and migration onto exposed surfaces.
C.
Masking Tape: Use masking tape to prevent through-penetration firestop systems from
contacting adjoining surfaces that will remain exposed on completion of Work and that would
otherwise be permanently stained or damaged by such contact or by cleaning methods used to
remove smears from firestop system materials. Remove tape as soon as possible without
disturbing firestop system's seal with substrates.
3.3

position needed to produce cross-sectional shapes and depths required to achieve fire ratings
indicated.
1.
C.
Install fill materials for firestop systems by proven techniques to produce the following results:
1.
2.
3.
3.4
After installing fill materials and allowing them to fully cure, remove combustible forming
materials and other accessories not indicated as permanent components of firestop systems.
Fill voids and cavities formed by openings, forming materials, accessories, and penetrating
items as required to achieve fire-resistance ratings indicated.
Apply materials so they contact and adhere to substrates formed by openings and
penetrating items.
For fill materials that will remain exposed after completing Work, finish to produce
smooth, uniform surfaces that are flush with adjoining finishes.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1
EXAMINATION
A.
Examine substrates, areas, and conditions, including structural framing to which acoustical
panel ceilings attach or abut, with Installer present, for compliance with requirements specified
in this and other Sections that affect ceiling installation and anchorage and with requirements
for installation tolerances and other conditions affecting performance of acoustical panel
ceilings.
B.
Examine acoustical panels before installation. Reject acoustical panels that are wet, moisture
damaged, or mold damaged.
C.
Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.
3.2
PREPARATION
A.
3.3
Measure each ceiling area and establish layout of acoustical panels to balance border widths at
opposite edges of each ceiling. Avoid using less-than-half-width panels at borders, and comply
with layout shown on reflected ceiling plans.
INSTALLATION
A.
General: Install acoustical panel ceilings to comply with ASTM C 636/C 636M and seismic
design requirements indicated, according to manufacturer's written instructions and CISCA's
"Ceiling Systems Handbook."
B.
Suspend ceiling hangers from building's structural members and as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Install hangers plumb and free from contact with insulation or other objects within ceiling
plenum that are not part of supporting structure or of ceiling suspension system.
Splay hangers only where required to miss obstructions; offset resulting horizontal forces
by bracing, countersplaying, or other equally effective means.
Where width of ducts and other construction within ceiling plenum produces hanger
spacings that interfere with location of hangers at spacings required to support standard
suspension-system members, install supplemental suspension members and hangers in
form of trapezes or equivalent devices.
Secure wire hangers to ceiling-suspension members and to supports above with a
minimum of three tight turns. Connect hangers directly either to structures or to inserts,
eye screws, or other devices that are secure and appropriate for substrate and that will not
deteriorate or otherwise fail due to age, corrosion, or elevated temperatures.
Secure flat, angle, channel, and rod hangers to structure, including intermediate framing
members, by attaching to inserts, eye screws, or other devices that are secure and
appropriate for both the structure to which hangers are attached and the type of hanger
involved. Install hangers in a manner that will not cause them to deteriorate or fail due to
age, corrosion, or elevated temperatures.
