A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification describes the required properties an
3、d test methods for a cold liquid-applied elastomeric membrane forwaterproofing building decks not subject to hydrostatic pressure. The specification applies only to a membrane system that has anintegral wearing surface. This specification does not include specific requirements for skid resistance or
4、 fire retardance, althoughboth may be important in specific uses.1.2 The type of membrane system described in this specification is used for pedestrian and vehicular traffic and in high-abrasionapplications. The membrane may be single- or multi-component, and may consist of one or more coats (for ex
5、ample base coat,top coat, etc.). The coat(s) may be built to the desired thickness in one or more applications. One coat (base coat) provides theprimary waterproofing function and normally comprises the major amount of organic material in the membrane. The function ofthe top coat(s) is to resist wea
6、r and weather. Aggregate may be used as a component of the membrane system, as all or part of acourse, to increase wear and skid resistance.1.3 The committee with jurisdiction over this standard is not aware of any comparable standards published by otherorganizations.1.4 Test methods in this specifi
7、cation require a minimum 0.5-mm 0.020-in. base coat dry film thickness. Actual thicknessrequired for a particular application and the use of aggregate in topcoats shall be established by the membrane manufacturer.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separat
8、ely as standard. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.6 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to the test metho
