Volume control dampers shall be installed in all branch ducts, whether shown on drawings or not, to allow
balancing of system and adjust air quantities to all supply, return and exhaust outlets and outside air
intakes. Dampers provided with outlets shall not be used for balancing.
Flexible duct shall be installed in a fully extended condition, free of sags and kinks, and, as far as
practical, using only the minimum length required to make the connection. Flexible ducts shall be
supported independently of the air outlets, and where horizontal support is required, shall be suspended on 36-inch centers with a minimum 3/4 inch wide flat banding material. Connection of flexible duct
(termination connections and joints) shall be made with 1/2 inch wide positive locking steel straps.

.2 Duct wraps shall be cut to "stretch-out" dimensions as provided in manufacturer's instructions,
and a 2" piece of insulation removed from the facing at the end of the piece of insulation to form
an overlapping staple and tape flap. Install with facing outside so tape flap overlaps insulation
and facing at other end. Insulation shall be tightly butted. If ducts are rectangular, install so
insulation is not excessively compressed at duct corners. Seams shall be stapled approximately
6 on center with outward clinching staples then taped. On supply ducts with vapor barrier
facing, the tape shall be vapor barrier tape. On return ducts with vinyl facing, duct tape is
acceptable. Seal all seams, tears, punctures and other penetrations of the insulation facing with
tape, as described above. Where rectangular ducts are 18" or wider, duct wrap shall be secured

Use size and type of raceways, ducts, boxes and cabinets as shown and specified.
Install metallic raceway, fittings, boxes and cabinets free from contact with reinforcing steel.
Where conduit is placed in contact with dissimilar metals or with
concrete, separate contact surfaces by means of a gasket, nonabsorptive tape or coating to prevent corrosion.
Make metallic conduit, raceways, ducts and cable trays electrically and
mechanically continuous and ground them in accordance with Section 16450.
Install PVC conduit where conduit runs are embedded in concrete and
where conduit is shown as direct burial. Use expansion-bolt anchors to secure equipment to concrete surfaces.
Run exposed and concealed conduit parallel to building lines.
Conduit must be continuous from outlet to outlet and from outlet to cabinets, junction boxes, or pull boxes. Make all joints and connections in
a manner, which will insure mechanical strength and electrical continuity.
At conduit terminals provide double lock nuts and insulated bushings or terminate on conduit hubs. Use of running threads is prohibited. Supply a grounding-type bushing and ground wire to ground bus/lug in equipment
for conduit termination in main switchgear and panelboards.
Install exposed and concealed conduit to avoid interference with other
work. Apply lead-free conductive anti-seize compound to threaded-conduit
joints.
In outdoor and underground locations, except electrical rooms, use threaded-conduit hubs to attach conduit to equipment enclosures. Use
watertight conduit fitting for attachment of conduit to enclosure having
punched or formed knockout. Before installing any site work, layout the proposed course for any
underground conduits, location of manholes, etc, and have same
approved.
In aboveground indoor locations and electrical rooms, use locknuts and nylon-insulated bushings to attach conduit to enclosures.
Install suitable caps or plugs in empty conduits for future extension.

3. In above ground locations bend conduit so that field-made bend
is free from cuts, dents and other surface damage. No underground field
bend in PVC conduits shall be allowed. Use factory fabricated fittings for
all underground couplings, elbows, bends, or offsets.
Bends: (Telecommunications conduit)
I. The inside radius of a bend in conduit shall be at least 6 times the internal diameter. When the conduit size is greater than 2 inches the inside radius shall be at least 10 times the internal
diameter of the conduit. For fiber optic cable, the inside diameter
shall always be at least 10 times the internal diameter of the
conduit.
Support single horizontal conduit with one-hole pipe straps or individual pipe hangers.
2.
Secure multiple conduits supported on trapeze-hangers or channel
inserts by fasteners suitable for such purpose.
Where conduit is attached to masonry surface, use malleable-iron spacers with Style A pipe straps.
Support and secure vertical conduit spanning open areas at intervals not
exceeding 10 feet. Support conduit above suspended ceilings using applicable specified methods.
Use minimum of 18-inch long liquid-tight flexible-conduit connections for
equipment enclosures subject to vibration. Do not use ceiling support wires for support of conduit and cable.
Install expansion fittings in exposed conduit runs longer than 300 feet.
Install expansion and deflection fittings where embedded conduits cross
structural expansion joints. Where embedded conduits cross a structural
contraction joint, paint the external surface of conduit with linseed oil or
other compatible bond breaker for two feet on each side of contraction joint. All exposed conduit and fittings routed in public spaces shall be
painted out to match the finished surrounding surfaces. Exposed conduit
routed in non-painted utility type areas may remain unpainted Buried PVC conduit: Install in accordance with the following requirements in addition to those specified elsewhere:
1.
2.

with solvent cement before installation of coupling.
4. Provide compatible conduit supports and spacers to maintain position of conduit during placement of concrete.
5. Install buried non-metallic conduit for cable over 600 volts in accordance with reference code.
6. Waterproof conduit connections.
7. Rod and swab conduit after installation so as to remove water,
cement and other foreign matter; cap conduit ends, If obstructions cannot be removed or if condition exists which may
result in damage to cable, replace conduit.
