patched with a grouting compound as described and supplied by the manufacturer
of the resinous flooring system.
5.1.1 Any cracks in the concrete shall be evaluated by the ENGINEER. In the
event that the ENGINEER decides that it is cost effective and necessary, all
cracks (if any exist) shall be injected by Epoxy.com Product #303 injection
resin (non-moving cracks) or Epoxy.com Product #4 flexible chemical grout
(moving cracks), depending on whether the engineer determines the cracks to be
moving or non-moving cracks. Upon the approval of the Engineer Epoxy.com
Product #685 Crack Sealer and Healer, may be used to repair the cracks. The
cost, and specifications of these repairs (if necessary) will not be part of
this section, but shall be handled under section of this specification.
5.1.2 In the event that the ENGINEER decides not to inject the cracks (if any
exist), CONTRACTOR shall fill the cracks with an elastic jointing compound
compatible with the resinous flooring system used.

system shall be conducted in order to assess the condition of the prepared
substrate. No materials shall be applied without the consent of the resident
Engineer.
6. Installation:
6.1 Resinous flooring system shall be installed at a minimum depth of 20
mils thick DFT in strict accordance with the manufacturer's installation
instructions, by an applicator trained and approved by the manufacturer.
6.2 Primer: Apply a coat of Epoxy.com Product #899 or other primer
recommended by the manufacturer for the specific application at a rate
recommended by the manufacturer. Any cracks in the concrete that exist at this
time shall be evaluated by the ENGINEER.
6.3 Base Cove: A base cove of 4 inches high will be applied to all wall
surfaces where noted in this section or on the drawings. The base cove (if any
required) shall be installed so as to have a 1/2 inch radius at the bottom of
it.
6.4 TopCoating: Apply two coats of Epoxy.com™ Product #633 Novolac Epoxy Resin
Coating at a thickness so
as to insure a total thickness of the system of not less than 20/1000 inch dry
film thickness. This coating will contain an anti-skid plastic bead. The
size of the anti-skid bead will be called out on the plans. The anti-skid
is available in fine and large.
