be exposed to environmental temperature and humidity
conditions for not less than 24 hours before start of
installation.
3.3 INSTALLATION
NOTE ** Homasote specifies framing at 16 inches (400 mm)
o.c. for all installation methods except over
finished walls; panel edges and ends are required
to align with framing members or be blocked for all
methods. Verify that appropriate framing section
or drawing notes comply. Special framing may be
required if panel joint layout is defined.
NOTE **
NOTE ** Furring for masonry or concrete walls can be one-
by's (19 mm) wood or standard hat-shaped metal
furring channels. Specify furring in the
appropriate wood or metal framing section.
A. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cutting and
installation of panels:
NOTE ** Installation is dependent on substrates; select
from the following subparagraphs accordingly,
deleting those not required for the project.
