glass, and installing glazing materials. The chemicalcompatibility of all glazing materials and framingsealants with each other and with like materialsused in glass fabrication will be established.

Installation of Glass1. Install in accordance with the glass systemprovider’s requirements and the shop drawings.2. Employ only experienced glaziers who havehad previous experience with the materials andsystems being applied. Use tools and equipmentrecommended by the manufacturer.3. Plate-to-plate joints of glass are to be sealedwith silicone sealant. Joint dimensions will bedesigned to be compatible with sealant propertiesand live load movement of the structure.4. Bolt torque: torque bolts to torques specifiedon shop drawings using a calibrated tool. Locktorque bolts into position to prevent back-off.Reset calibrations regularly to ensure anaccurate torque.

5. Clean glazing connectors receiving glazingmaterials of deleterious substances that mightimpair the work. Remove protective coatings thatmight fail in adhesion or interfere with the bondingof materials of deleterious substances that mightimpair the work. Remove protective coatings thatmight fail in adhesion or interfere with bond ofsealants. Comply with the manufacturer’s instructions for final wiping of surfaces immediately before the application of primer and glazing sealants. Wipe metal surfaces with an appropriate cleaning agent.6. Inspect each unit of glass immediately beforeinstallation. Glass that has significant impactdamage at edges, scratches, abrasion of faces

or any other evidence of damage will not be installed.7. Sealants: prime surfaces are to receive glazingsealants where required, in accordance with themanufacturer’s recommendations, using recommended primers.8. Locate setting blocks, if required by the drawings, at the quarter points of the sill, but no closer than 6 inches to corners of the glass.Use blocks of proper sizes to support the glass in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.9. Provide spacers to separate the glass from attachment plates.10. Set the glass in a manner that produces thegreatest possible degree of uniformity in appearance.Face all glass which has a dissimilar face withmatching faces in the same direction.11. Use masking tape or other suitable protectionto limit the coverage of glazing materials on the surfaces intended for sealants.12. Tool the exposed surfaces of glazing materials. 13. Clean excess sealant from the glass and support members immediately after the application,using solvents or cleaners recommended bythe manufacturers.

Curing, Protection and Cleaning1. Cure sealants in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions to attain maximumdurability and adhesion to glass.2.
