Use fasteners, protective coatings, sealants, and miscellaneous items as required to
complete roof expansion joints.
2. Install roof expansion joints true to line and elevation; and without warping, jogs in
alignment, buckling, or tool marks.
3. Provide for linear thermal expansion of roof expansion joint materials.
4. Provide uniform profile of roof expansion joint throughout its length; do not stretch or
squeeze membranes.
5. Provide uniform, neat seams.
6. Install roof expansion joints to fit substrates and to result in watertight performance.
B. Coordinate installation and transition of roofing system component serving as an air barrier with
roof expansion joint and requirements of Section 01 3113.23 “Air Barrier System Coordination.”
