	PART 3	EXECUTION
	3.1	EXAMINATION
		A.	Verify that substrates are in proper condition to receive installation of expansion joint covers.
			1.	Confirm that blockout dimensions are appropriate for recessed systems.
			2.	Confirm that selected expansion joint covers are appropriate for actual joint dimensions.
	3.2	PREPARATION
		A.	Clean substrate before installation to remove dust, debris, and loose particles.
	3.3	INSTALLATION
		A.	General: Install expansion joint covers in strict accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Align work level and flush with adjacent surfaces, and rigidly anchor to substrate. Make allowances for structural gap that varies at time of installation from nominal design gap.
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Delete paragraph below if no selected expansion joint covers include centering bars or spring clips.
		B.	Metal Frames: Perform cutting and fitting required to install the joint system. All frames must be set on, and in continuous contact with solid substrate. Anchor at internvals as required by Manufacturer’s systems.
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Delete paragraph below if no expansion joint covers are to be installed in fire rated construction.
		C.	Fire Rated Assemblies: Where expansion joint covers are required in fire rated construction, install fire rated systems to comply with manufacturer's requirements and in strict conformance with tested assemblies.
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Delete paragraph below if no required expansion joint covers include vapor barriers.
		D.	Vapor Barriers: Where required, install in strict accordance with manufacturer's instructions to assure continuous protection. Install drainage fittings where required by project circumstances.
	3.4	INSPECTION
		A.	Prior to payment by the general contractor, a designated inspector will select a random 10 percent of the joint systems and have the assembly covers removed for inspection. The purpose of this will be to inspect the concrete substrates, filler materials, anchorage of the joint assembly and fire barrier systems that are hidden from view.
		B.	Corrective action will be designated as required. Should a majority of the 10 percent scope be deemed as unacceptable, the Inspector will require that additional lengths be opened for inspection. This process will continue until the Inspector and general contractor are satisfied and the Manufacturer’s warranties are secured.
	3.5	ADJUSTING AND CLEANING
		A.	Verify that expansion joint covers are plumb and level and are rigidly secured to substrate; make any adjustments required.
		B.	Clean expansion joint covers and immediate areas of installation, using materials and methods recommended by manufacturer. Remove from project site packaging and debris caused by installation.
