1.
When two finishes are appropriate for a room, the preferred
finish is shown in Appendix A first. The using Military
Department may select the alternate finish.
2.
Resilient Base. Rubber or vinyl coved base for use with
resilient tile. Coved base shall terminate and butt at the
face return of steel door jambs. A straight vinyl or rubber
base or carpet base shall be used with carpet flooring.
Fire-retardant wood blocking or metal runners shall be provided
at the steel stud base channel runner for all gypsum board
corridor walls.
3.
Sheet Vinyl. Solid, seamless vinyl in either roll or tile
format with routed, welded, grooved seams where melted vinyl is
used for an impervious, waterproof seal. Chemical sealants are
unacceptable. Cushioned sheet vinyl may not be used. Provide
seamless sheet vinyl base integral with the flooring, using the
same joint sealing application technique of grooved, melted,
welded, vinyl for an impervious waterproof seal.
4.
Gypsum wallboard.
Minimum 5/8 inch ("green board" for damp or
wet areas).
5.
Liquid Glaze Coat. This coating is a seamless, sprayed-on,
lusterless semi-gloss two-component polyester epoxy or
polyurethane finish. Veneer plaster may be substituted for
liquid glaze coat where impact resistance, cleanability, and
moisture resistance is a factor.
6.
Use type II vinyl wall fabric in all areas except corridors and
cart traffic areas where type III vinyl wall fabric shall be
used. Type III shall also be used in waiting rooms alcoved off
major circulation corridors.
7.
Veneer Plaster. May be used as an alternate to "green board"
in damp or wet areas as a substitute for GVF, GLG, GCT; and, in
corridors, litter holding, litter/wheelchair waiting/alcoves,
Utility Rooms, Treatment Rooms, toilets without showers,
Physical Therapy, Operating and Delivery Rooms, Nurse Stations,
Laboratories and related spaces), Central Sterile Supply,
patient bedrooms, and anywhere else water-resistance, cart
abuse, cleanability, and impact resistance is required. Veneer
Plaster Wallboard (GVP) is a suitable substitute for plaster.
