The Work
The works in this section shall consist of the manufacture/supply, delivery and
installation onsite of architectural composite building system (CBS), including all
anchorage provisions, in accordance with this Specification and in conformity with
the Drawings or as established by the Engineer.
General
The works of this section, as shown or specified, shall be in accordance with the
requirements of the Drawings and Specifications, and includes all labor, materials,
equipment and services necessary to complete the required CBS as shown on the
Drawings and/or as specified herein.
501.2.1 Summary
The requirement is for a CBS with structural coatings consisting of premixed
concrete, sand, additives and water as the main components. A specific type of
additive is added to create a structural wall system for interior, exterior, slab, ledge
and other building applications. The extent of the required work is shown on the
Drawings and the partition schedule. The cutting and fitting for work of other trades
is scheduled as work of this section.
501.2.2 References
ESR 1638 (Evaluation Service Report): This is a report published by the ICC
(International Code Council), under the International Building Code (IBC). These
reports are used by US governing bodies as a guide to review and approve structures
built within their jurisdiction. This report classifies CBS as type V-B construction.
This report permits the CBS to be used as wall system for interior, exterior, slab,
ledge and other building applications.

case of indent (imported materials/items).
2) Substitution is not permitted, unless officially authorized (i.e. in writing) by the
Employer and/or Engineer.
501.3.2 Materials
1) Expanded Polystyrene (EPS): The EPS is in accordance with ASTM C-578
standard. Normal EPS density is either 0.90 pct or 1.5 pct (14.4kg/m 3 to
24kg/m3) nominal shaped into various configurations such as rectangular,
curved, or 1- shapes. The thickness ranges from 2 inches to 16 inches (51mm
to 406mm) depending on the end use and design considerations. Surface
burning characteristics are a flame-spread index (FSI) of 25 or less and a
smoke-developed index (SDI) of 450 or less when tested in accordance with
ASTM E 84 at a 4-inch (102mm) thickness. The EPS is supplied by sources
described in the approved quality control documentation.
2) CBS Structural Coatings: The CBS structural coatings are composite materials
consisting of premixed concrete, sand, additives, and water. Flexural strength
and modulus of elasticity must be determined by tests in accordance with
ASTM C 947, and compressive strength must be determined by test in
accordance with ASTM C 109. The thicknesses of these structural coatings
ranges from 6 to 50mm, depending on the required loads imposed on the
structural components as described in the structural design documentation. The
structural coating is a Class A interior finish with a flame-spread index of 25
or less and a smoke-developed index of 450 or less when tested in accordance
with ASTM E 84 at a 6mm thickness.
3) Adhesives: The adhesive are used to adhere with EPS segments to create walls
prior to structural coating with the CBS proprietary structural coating, using
single or two (2)-part foam plastic adhesive.

For installation by the Contractor on a compacted aggregate base and soil subgrade,
the top surface of the pavers may be 1 /8 to 1 /4 in. (3 to 6mm) above the final
elevations after compaction. This difference in initial and final elevation is to
compensate for possible minor settling.
The Contractor shall:
1) The Contractor shall verify that subgrade preparation, compacted density and
elevations conform to the Specifications.
Compaction of the soil subgrade is recommended to be at least 95% standard
Proctor density per ASTM D 698 for pedestrian areas and driveways for light
vehicles. Compaction to at least 95% modified Proctor density per ASTM D
1557 is recommended for areas subject to heavy vehicular traffic. Stabilization
of the subgrade and/or base material may be necessary with weak or saturated
subgrade soils. The Engineer shall inspect subgrade preparation, elevations,
and conduct density tests for conformance to Specifications.
2) The Contractor shall verify that geotextiles, if applicable, have been placed
according to Specifications and Drawings.
3) The Contractor shall verify that aggregate base materials, thickness,
compaction, surface tolerances, and elevations conform to the Specifications.

Do not allow to dry on finished surfaces (glass, aluminum, stainless steel, walls,
etc.) as permanent etching may occur.
Application should be performed by qualified contractors with a clear
understanding of hardener application and uses (reference Spec Data Sheet or
Application Specifications for specific details).
7) Maintenance Program:
An effective maintenance program that includes routine scrubbing with stiff
bristle brushes, ample down pressure, and proper amounts of water and
detergent will enhance the floor’s performance significantly. Implementation
of the following maintenance program will allow the hardener to continue to
react with the concrete, lifting contaminants away from the concrete and
allowing the marble-like sheen to develop.
Scrub floor often: Minimum routine cleaning 2-3 times per week with cleaners,
detergents and protectors provides superior results.
Clean Spills quickly: After densification is complete, concrete will resist
contamination and moisture penetration of most liquids. Corrosive or
aggressively staining contaminants should be removed quickly to avoid
possible staining.
8) Recommended Supplies:
a) Automatic Scrubber - capable of 57-68 kg of downward pressure;
b) Black Stripping Pads or Medium-Aggressive Nylon Brushes -
accelerates the sheen and creates a more uniform appearance;
c) Detergent: performance-enhancing detergent specifically designed to
clean densified and densified-polished concrete flows; regular use
helps decrease the visibility of minor scratches and blemishes and
helps maintain the concrete sheen;
d) Large Volumes of Water - water used while cleaning the concrete
surface will actually accelerate the reaction between hardener and the
concrete;
e) Oil Emulsifier & Acrylic Stripper: use directly on stain for spot
treatment;
f) Polypropylene or Stiff-Poly Brushes – regular maintenance after
sheen develops.

until the surface remains moist for a few minutes. If an airless sprayer
is used, application should continue until the substrate is thoroughly
saturated. On vertical applications, material should be applied from
the bottom up and achieve a 6- to 8-inch rundown. Sprayers should
be fitted with solvent-resistant hoses and gaskets.
f) To ensure compatibility and the desired water repellent result, a test
application is necessary on each surface to be treated.
g) Surfaces should be free of standing water, surface dirt, dust, oils and
other contaminants. The formulated water repellent may be applied to
damp or wet surfaces, although dry surfaces are preferred to achieve
maximum penetration into the substrate.
h) As with most repellents, plants or shrubs should be protected from
exposure to the treatment. Windows and any other material that
should not be treated must be protected or cleaning with solvents may
be necessary to remove the treatment. Likewise, if applied as spray,
control overspray and drift to prevent contamination of nearby
substrates, especially windows, vehicles, etc.
c) Limited Product Warranty. The Manufacturer’s information shall be offered
in good faith and is believed to be accurate. However, because conditions and
methods of use of the products are beyond Manufacturer’s control, such
information should not be used in substitution for The Contractor’s tests to
ensure that the products are safe, effective, and fully satisfactory for the
intended end use. Suggestions of use shall not be taken as inducements to
infringe any patent.

transmittance, soft-coat low-E glass reduces the overall heat gain through a
window, thus decreasing energy use of regulated cooling systems. It also
reflects interior heat back to its source, resulting in less radiant heat transfer
and more effective insulating performance.
The performance data (values) for Soft-coat (double silver) low-E glass shall
be as follows:
a) Reflective color: blue grey;
b) Visible Light: Transmitted - 37; Reflected (Outdoor-28 and Indoor-12);
c) Solar Energy: Transmitted - 17; Reflected - 40;
d) U-Value: Summer (Air - 1.62 and Argon - 1.28);
e) SC - 0.25;
f) SHGC - 0.21; and
g) RHG (w/m2) - 168.
4) Pyrolytic Low-E glass - is where the low-E coating is applied on a substrate of
clear float glass by a pyrolytic process called online chemical vapor disposition
(CVD) method. During summer, the glass will reduce the amount of heat re-
radiated into the building, thus keeping the temperature comfortably cool. The
glass is neutral in appearance and has high light transmission, with the metal
oxide coating contributing to the thermal insulating properties of windows and
doors, which reduces the building’s energy consumption. This type of glass
provides excellent solar shading when processed as an insulating glass unit
(IGU) with reflective and tinted glass.
For the project, this shall be used for all window types e.g. awning, sliding, etc.
5) Tempered (Toughened) glass - Tempered glass is float glass that is heated in
an oven, then cooled fast. It is approximately 4 to 5 times stronger than ordinary
annealed glass of equal thickness. It has greater resistance to thermally-induced
stress and shall have a surface compressive strength of more than 90Mpa.
Tempered glass shall be up to five (5) times as strong as ordinary glass in
resisting impact and when it breaks, the fragments are small and comparatively
harmless pieces. Generally, tempered glass offers greatly increased resistance
to sudden temperature changes of up to 250 degrees C and its stress
characteristics are unchanged for continuing service up to 300 degrees C and
are unaffected at sub-zero temperatures.
These shall be used for safety/ balustrade railings, customer service areas and
point-of-sale (POS) areas.
6) Laminated glass -Laminated glass shall consist of two (2) glass layers with a
thin interlayer film called polyvinyl butyral (PBV) in between. PVB film is a
tough and pliable material that can bend and absorb impact in case the glass
panels on either its (or both its) side/s break/s. The broken glass remain attached
to the PVB to reduce the risk of injury or damage to property.

Laminated glass shall still display the visual perfection of monolithic float glass
while the PVB must give safety benefits such as:
a) Ability to withstand high wind pressure and earthquake-related
vibrations;
b) Serve as security glass to meet different levels of required protection e.g.
Bullet-resistant, anti-bandit, etc.;
c) Block up to 99% of ultraviolet (uv) light for protection against radiation;
d) Subdue outside noise due to the pvb’s sound-insulating property; and
e) Possibly offer up to two (2) hours of fire protection.
Laminated safety/ security glass shall be used for the elevator shaft (interior
and exterior).
The fire-resistant laminated safety glass (with metal point system) shall provide
up to two (2)-hours of fire protection at critical areas where the risk of fire
and/or explosion is present.
7) Mirrors - Glass for mirrors shall be top-of-the-line float glass, chemically-
treated with silver through automatic sprayers, to ensure even and perfect
reflection. It is copper-coated to prevent peeling and backed with double paint
coatings, then oven-cured to maintain durability through the years. Mirrors
shall exude brilliant, distortion-free reflections and is protectively-sealed to
guard against moisture and temperature changes. These shall be provided
mainly at all toilets and locker rooms, and rooms for persons with disabilities
(PWD) and for gender and development (GAD).

a) Measurement
After the coating is cured, the dry film thickness shall be measured with an
electromagnetic thickness gauge.
b) Control Criteria
The surface area of steel members shall be divided into approx. 200.0 –
500.0 square meters (sqm), each of which is called a “lot”. The
measurement of dry film thickness shall be performed at least twenty-five
(25) points per “lot”. If the surface area of one lot is less the 200.0 sqm, one
(1) measurement per 10.0 sqm shall be done. At any given measurement,
five (5) readings shall be obtained to calculate the average, which then
becomes the “measured value” of each measurement point. The control
criteria of measurement outcomes need to fulfill the following
requirements:
i) The average of “measured values” per lot shall be at least 90% of the
total of specified dry film thickness;
ii) The minimum of the measured values shall be at least 70% of the total
specified dry film thickness.
iii) The standard deviation of the distribution of measured values shall
not exceed 20% of the total of specified dry film thickness. However,
even if the standard deviation exceeds 20%, the thickness shall be
regarded as “acceptable” as long as the average of measured values
per lot is greater than the total of specified dry film thickness.
c) Disposition of Insufficient Dry Film Thickness.
If the dry film thickness is less than the specified thickness, Contractor shall
re-apply the specified coating material until the specified dry film thickness
is ensured. The same shall be true in the case of onsite touch-up.
548.3.14 Protection
1) Protect work of other trades, whether to be painted or not, against damage by
the painting and finishing work. Leave all such work undamaged. Correct any
damages by cleaning, repairing or replacing, and repainting, as acceptable to
the Engineer.
2) Provide "Wet Paint" signs as required to protect newly painted finishes.
Remove temporary protective wrappings provided by others for protection of
their work after completion of painting operations.
548.3.15 Clean up
1) During the progress of the work, remove from the site all discarded paint
materials, rubbish, cans and rags at the end of each work day.
2) Upon completion of painting work, clean window glass and other paint
spattered surfaces. Remove spattered paint by proper methods of washing and
scraping, using care not to scratch or otherwise damage finished surfaces.
