M20/810AGENERAL APPLICATION

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:

-Application of coatings: Firmly and in one continuous operation between angles and joints. Achieve good adhesion.

-Appearance of finished surfaces: Even and consistent. Free from rippling, hollows, ridges, cracks and crazing.

-Accuracy: Finish to a true plane, to correct line and level, with angles and corners to a right angle unless specified otherwise, and with walls and reveals plumb and square.

-Drying: Prevent excessively rapid or localized drying out.

-INSTALLATION: The coating shall be applied to Dryvit written instructions by Dryvit trained applicators.

-INSPECTION OF COMPLETED INSTALLATION: As soon as possible after completion of the work and before removing scaffolding, carry out an inspection with the CA to identify any defects.

M20/880ACURING AND DRYING

-General: Prevent premature setting and uneven drying of each coat. Work in the shade and out of drying winds whenever possible

-Drying: Allow each coat to dry thoroughly, with drying shrinkage substantially complete before applying next coat.

-Protection: Protect from frost and rain.

This common arrangement of work section document should be adapted to meet specific project requirements. Clauses should always be modified with the aid of the relevant Dryvit system & product literature and in line with current NBS work section criteria. The completed document can then be included in the overall project specification and be read in conjunction with the Preliminaries/General conditions according to the NBS guidelines.
