	PART 3	EXECUTION
	3.1	EXAMINATION
		A.	Do not begin installation until substrates have been properly prepared.
		B.	Verify the alignment of structural steel before installation of panels conforms to the tolerances of AISC Code of Standard Practice, Section 7, including the supplement controlling Section 7.11.3, adjustable items.

		B.	Prepare surfaces using the methods recommended by the manufacturer for achieving the best result for the substrate under the project conditions.
	3.3	INSTALLATION
		A.	Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
		B.	Erect panels in accordance with reviewed shop drawings; anchor panels securely in accordance with reviewed shop drawings to allow for necessary thermal movement and structural support.
		C.	Erect metalwork square, plumb, straight, and true, accurately fitted, with tight joints and intersections.
		D.	Panels shall be cut in the field for bevels and openings using manufacturers recommendations and procedures.
		E.	Anchor panels securely per engineering recommendations and in accordance with approved shop drawings to allow for necessary thermal movement and structural support.
		F.	Sealants shall be installed without skips or voids to insure weathertightness and integrity of the vapor barrier system.
		G.	Do not install component parts that are observed to be defective, including warped, bowed, dented, abraded and broken members.
		H.	Do not cut, trim, weld or braze component parts during erection in manner that would damage finish, decrease strength, or result in visual imperfection or failure in performance. Return component parts that require alteration to shop for refabrication, if possible, or for replacement with new parts.
		I.	Separate dissimilar metals and use gasketed fasteners, isolation shim, or isolation tape where needed to eliminate possibility of corrosive or electrolytic action between metals.
