SECTION 07213
PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING INSULATION
NOTE ** This section is based on products manufactured by
Thermal Design, Inc., at the following address:
NOTE ** 600 N. Main Street P.O. Box 468
NOTE ** Madison, NE 68748
NOTE ** Telephone 1-800-255-0776.
NOTE **
NOTE ** The Simple Saver System for ceiling and walls for
pre-engineered buildings provides thermal
insulation, sound absorption, and a finished
surface. Each system is custom made to fit each
project, so it may be applied to virtually any
brand of building, roof, or wall - whether of metal
or of concrete or other solid material. Lighting,
conduit, ducts, and piping can be hung from
ceilings without cutting the vapor barrier.
Request a design manual from Thermal Design, Inc.
The system also can be applied to bar joists, wood
truss, concrete tee, and steel beam structures,
both in new construction and in retrofit of
existing structures; consult the manufacturer for
details.

PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Verify that building structure and building systems such
as electrical conduit to be concealed are completed and
approved.
B. Correct any unsatisfactory conditions before proceeding.
3.2 ROOF INSULATION INSTALLATION
A. Steel Straps:
1. Cut straps to length and install in the pattern and
spacings indicated on shop drawings.
2. Tension straps to required value.
B. Vapor Barrier Fabric:
1. Position pre-folded fabric on the strap platform
along one eave purlin.
2. Clamp the two bottom corners at the eave and also
centered on the bay.
3. Pull the other end of the pleat-folded fabric across
the building width on the strap platform, pausing
only at the ridge to fasten the straps and fabric in
position where plane of roof changes and to release
temporary fasteners on the opposite ridge purlin.
4. Once positioned, install fasteners from the bottom
side at each strap/purlin intersection.
5. Trim edges and seal along the rafters.
C. Insulation:
1. Unpack, and shake to a thickness exceeding the
specified thickness.
2. Ensure that cavities are filled completely with
insulation.
3. Place on the vapor barrier liner fabric without voids
or gaps.
NOTE ** Delete the following paragraph for single layer
systems, and for retrofit systems.
4. Place top layer of insulation over and perpendicular
to the purlins without voids or gaps, as roof
sheathing is applied.
NOTE ** Retain the following paragraph for single layer
systems, and for retrofit systems.
5. Place thermal block on top of purlins or bottom of
purlins for retrofit work, if no other thermal break
exists.
NOTE ** Retain the following paragraph for retrofit
systems. Consult with the manufacturer for the
various methods and details of installation
available for retrofit systems.
6. Place new insulation between purlins at the required
thickness for the R-value specified.
3.3 WALL INSULATION INSTALLATION
A. Insulation:
1. Install thermal break to exterior surface of girts as
wall sheathing is applied.
2. Ensure that cavities are filled completely with
insulation.
3. Cut insulation to required lengths to fit vertically
between girts.
4. Neatly position in place and secure to Fast-R
hangers.
5. Fluff the insulation to exceed the specified
thickness.
B. Vapor Barrier Fabric:
1. Apply the vapor barrier fabric by clamping it in
position over eave strap.
2. Once in position, install fasteners through the eave
strap into each roof strap, permanently clamping the
wall fabric between them.
C. Straps: Install vertical straps along each column and 5
feet 0 inches on center, maximum, fastening to each girt
to retain system permanently in place.
D. Seal wall fabric to the roof fabric, to the base angle,
up the columns.
3.4 CLEANING
