PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 PERFORMANCE
A. Interface With Other Work: Coordinate work of this Section with general masonry cleaning so all,
except final pointing, is completed before general masonry cleaning, if any.
B. Remove mortar from joint 2-1/2 times deeper than joint width or one inch, whichever is greater, with
hammer and cold chisel or other suitable hand tools. Do not use power tools unless it can be
demonstrated to Architect's satisfaction that masonry surfaces will not be damaged.
C. Remove masonry from designated areas, if any, and clean mortar from salvageable removed units
and from surrounding units in wall. Re-lay masonry units in wall leaving raked joint to approximate

than standard chiseled depth, and then proceed to fill raked joint using several layers of mortar and
working tool in one direction only. Each layer of mortar shall be thumbprint hard before succeeding
layer is applied. Where corners of face brick have eroded, it may be necessary to recess mortar to
some degree in order to maintain consistent visual width of joints.
F. Perform final tooling when mortar is thumbprint hard.
3.2 CLEANING
A. Clean face of masonry one to two hours after mortar has set.
1. Use plain stiff bristle brush.
2. If mortar has become too hard, use brush and plain water and wooden paddle or, if necessary, a
chisel.

1. HVAC Drawings show general arrangement of piping, ductwork, equipment, etc. Follow
as closely as actual building construction and work of other trades will permit.
2. Consider Architectural and Structural Drawings part of this work insofar as these
drawings furnish information relating to design and construction of building. These
drawings take precedence over HVAC Drawings.
3. Because of small scale of Drawings, it is not possible to indicate all offsets, fittings, and
accessories that may be required. Investigate structural and finish conditions affecting
this work and arrange work accordingly, providing such fittings, valves, and accessories
required to meet conditions.
B. Verification Of Conditions:
1. Examine premises to understand conditions that may affect performance of work of this
Division before submitting proposals for this work. Examine adjoining work on which
mechanical work is dependent for efficiency and report work that requires correction.
2. No subsequent allowance for time or money will be considered for any consequence
related to failure to examine site conditions.
3. Ensure that items to be furnished fit space available. Make necessary field
measurements to ascertain space requirements including those for connections and
furnish and install equipment of size and shape so final installation shall suit true intent
and meaning of Contract Documents. If approval is received by Addendum or Change
Order to use other than originally specified items, be responsible for specified capacities
and for ensuring that items to be furnished will fit space available.
4. Check that slots and openings provided under other Divisions through floors, walls,
ceilings, and roofs are properly located. Perform cutting and patching caused by
neglecting to coordinate with Divisions providing slots and openings at no additional cost
to Owner.
3.2 PREPARATION

1. Where equipment specified or otherwise approved requires different arrangement or
connections from that shown in Contract Documents, submit drawings, if requested by
Architect, showing proposed installations.
2. If proposed changes are approved, install equipment to operate properly and in harmony
with intent of Contract Documents. Make incidental changes in piping, ductwork,
supports, installation, wiring, heaters, panelboards, and as otherwise necessary.
3. Provide any additional motors, valves, controllers, fittings, and other additional
equipment required for proper operation of system resulting from selection of equipment.

start-up and testing if prevented by outdoor conditions before this time.
e. After testing, fully charge system with refrigerant and conduct test with Halide Leak Detector.
f. Recover all refrigerant in accordance with applicable codes. Do not allow any refrigerant to
escape to atmosphere.
2. If it is observed that refrigerant lines are being or have been brazed without proper circulation of
nitrogen through lines, all refrigerant lines installed up to that point in time shall be removed and
replaced at no additional cost to Owner.
