Calcium Chloride Tests for moisture must be conducted. Armstrong offers a guideline of a maximum acceptable moisture emission level of 5.0 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. per 24 hours. Bond Tests should also be conducted for compatibility with the substrate. When testing for alkalinity, the allowable readings for the installation of Armstrong flooring are 5 to 9 on the pH scale. Temperature shall be maintained at a minimum of 65° F (18° C) and a maximum of 100° F (38° C) for 48 hours prior to installation
per cu. ft. (1441 kg/m3) or cellular concrete having a plastic (wet) density less than 100 lbs. per cu. ft. (1602 kg/m3) [94 lbs. per cu. ft. (1506 kg/m3) dry weight], or concrete having a compressive strength of less than 3500 psi (24 MPa). Concrete slabs with heavy static and/or dynamic loads should have higher design strengths and densities calculated to accommodate such loads. Concrete curing agents, sealers, hardeners, or parting agents should be removed. TECHNICAL DATA Shipping Weight 63 l
