B. The entire substrate to receive waterproofing is to be primed with Elastocol 500
at an average rate of 1 to 1.5 gallons per 100 sq. ft. Primer is to be installed to a

3.5 MEMBRANE APPLICATION
PEDCOR SQUARE; BUILDING 5
07 13 52 -
PEDCOR SQUARE Issue Date 12.18.15 SBS MODIFIED BITUMINOUS
SHEET PLAZA WATERPROOFING
PEDCOR SQUARE; BUILDING 5
A. Reinforcement strips of Sopralene 180 must be used at all inside and outside
corners as well as all 90o
angles and drains.
B. It is recommended that the membrane is installed in full rolls as much as
possible.
C. The Sopralene Flam Stick shall be installed (self-adhered only) to the prepared
substrate. Starting at the low point of the deck at the drains, press the
membrane to the primed surface.
D. Ensure that the membrane is totally adhered to the substrate with each sheet set
vertically from the first course to the high point of the deck. The side laps shall
be 75 mm or 3 inches.
E. Any holes or punctures in the membrane must be patched with an additional
sheet of membrane which extends a minimum of 4 inches or 100 mm from all
sides of the hole or puncture.
F. The Subcontractor shall inspect the completed work each day. Any wrinkles or
voids in the side or head laps must be cut and patched.
G. Application of the cap sheet, SOPRALENE FLAM 180, shall follow the base ply
as soon as possible. The cap sheet shall be shifted 12 inches to ensure that the
seams in the base ply do not line up with the cap ply.
H. The cap ply shall be unrolled on the deck for alignment. The sheet shall be
unrolled from the low point of the deck and shall be re-rolled from both ends prior
to torching.
I. The cap ply shall be torched over the base ply. Side laps of the cap ply shall be
3 inches or 75 mm with end laps of 6 inches or 150 mm. All end laps must be
staggered to avoid alignment with the base ply.
J. Prior to the application of the drainage or protection layer, the Subcontractor
should contact a representative of the manufacturer to inspect the membrane
and note any defects which will require attention.
3.6 MEMBRANE FLASHING
A. The base ply, SOPRALENE FLAM 180, shall be used as the flashing
reinforcement or backer sheet. The backer sheet shall be applied to a primed
surface and shall extend 6 inches out onto the base ply. Note: the flashing
backer sheet must be applied prior to the cap ply.
B. Following the installation of the cap ply, use a chalk line to mark the cap sheet 6
inches or 150 mm out from the projection. Using a torch and a round-nosed
roofing trowel, embed the surface granules into the heated asphalt of the cap
sheet. The 180 cap ply should then be cut for the size of the projection ensuring
a 6-inch or 150 mm lap out onto the cap ply.

C. All flashing must be terminated 1/2-inch below the finished surface of the plaza
overburden, or above the overburden and into an approved receiver, metal
counter-flashing, coping, etc.
3.7 LIQUID FLASHING APPLICATION

sound, dry and clean. Surfaces must be free from moisture, dirt, grease, oil,
paint or any other loose or existing waterproof coatings.
3.8 PRIMING
A. Priming is not normally required on clean dry plywood, concrete, masonry and
metal surfaces.
B. Any older surface with a prior flashing or coating will require a primer.
C. If the Alsan Base coat is exposed for more than twelve hours prior to the next
application of Alsan Flashing it must be primed at a rate of 200-250 sq. ft. per
gal.
D. Primers should be allowed to dry for a total of 8 hours prior to the Alsan Flashing
Application. Primed substrates may only be exposed for a period of 24 hours
prior to the application of Alsan Flashing or they must be re primed.
3.9 ALSAN FLASHING APPLICATION
A. Base Coat:
1. Onto the vertical and horizontal surfaces apply Alsan Flashing at a rate
of 20 wet mils. This will require about 1.25 gal. Per 100 sq. ft.
2. Extend the coverage of Alsan Flashing one inch above the past the
location of the Flash Fleece reinforcement.
3. Apply Alsan Flashing out onto the surface of the field cap membrane a
minimum of 4 inches to 6 inches depending on the type of detail or
penetration. (Refer to Soprema Alsan Flashing Details for 10 year
application)
4. Center and position the Flash Fleece up the vertical and out onto the
horizontal surface without wrinkles or folds and embed into the wet base
coat. Overlap reinforcement a minimum of 2 inches.
5. Apply the flash fleece into the base coat while wet. Do not allow a skim
to form over the base coat
6. Over the entire base coat application and the Flash Fleece immediately
apply a coat of Alsan Flashing at a rate of 20 wet mils or 125 sq. ft. per
gal. Be sure that the Flash Fleece is completely embedded.
3.10 ALSAN FLASHING MID COAT (SECOND COAT)
A. Allow the base coat to dry for a minimum of two hours to a maximum of 12 hours
before applying the mid coat. Extended cure time may be required in cool

priming prior to application of the mid coat.
C. Apply the mid coat of Alsan Flashing over the entire base coat at a rate of 25 wet
mils or 1.56 gal. Per 100 sq. ft.
D. Do not apply when base coat surface temperature exceeds 187°F or below 40°F.

40 degrees F. Do not install in wet weather conditions.
C. Apply the Alsan Flashing finish coat over the complete surface of the mid coat at
a rate of 25 wet mils or 1.56 gal per 100 sq. ft.
