B. Roof Drains

1. Install roof drains at low points of roof areas, in accordance with the roof membrane
manufacturer's installation instructions.

2. Install drain flashing collar or flange so that no leakage occurs between roof drain and
adjoining roofing. Maintain integrity of waterproof membranes, where penetrated.

3.6 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

A. Inspection: Do not enclose, cover, or put into operation drainage and vent piping system until
it has been inspected, tested and approved by the Engineer or the authority having jurisdiction.
Notify the Engineer, in writing, at least 24 hours prior to the time such inspection must be
made. Perform tests specified below in the presence of the Engineer.

B. Piping System Test

1. PVC Plumbing: Test the piping of plumbing drainage and venting systems upon
completion of the rough piping installation. Tightly close all openings in the piping
system, and fill with water to the point of overflow, but not less than 3048 mm of head.
Water level shall not drop during the period from 15 minutes before the inspection
starts, through completion of the inspection. Inspect all joints for leaks.

2. Finished Plumbing: After the plumbing fixtures have been set and traps filled with water,
test connections and prove they are gastight and watertight. Plug the stack openings on
the roof and building drains where they leave building. Introduce air into piping system
equal to a pressure of 250 Pa. Use a U-tube or manometer inserted in the trap of water
closet to measure this pressure. Air pressure must remain constant without the
introduction of additional air throughout the period of inspection. Inspect all plumbing
fixture connections for gas and water leaks.

3. Repair all leaks and defects using new materials and retest system or portion thereof
until satisfactory results are obtained. Prepare reports for all tests and required
corrective action.

3.7 ADJUSTING, CLEANING AND PROTECTION

A. Clean interior of piping system. Remove dirt debris as work progresses. Clean drain strainers,
domes and traps, and remove dirt and debris.

B. Protect drains during remainder of construction period, to avoid dirt and debris, and to prevent
from traffic and construction work. Place plugs on uncompleted piping at end of day or
whenever work stops.
