200  THRU-WALL FLASHING AND UNDERSLAB VAPOR BARRIER
A black laminate comprised of polyester film, 20x10 fiberglass scrim and a layer of vinyl film. Fiberweb 200 was specifically designed for and approved by the Army Corps of Engineers under Guide Specification CEGS-07600. Fiberweb 200 has a total average mil thickness of 8 mils.


Underslab Vapor Barrier:
Product Description: Fiberweb 210 Underslab Vapor Barrier with its reinforced construction is a strong, highly efficient vapor barrier which resists caustics and alkalies found in concrete and mortar and is virtually impervious to degradation under most conditions. Its strength and durability make it ideal for underslab vapor barrier applications.

Installation:
Prepare subbase of slabs on grade by leveling and compacting to provide a smooth surface. Apply Fiberweb 210 over full surface of subbase. Use full width sheets to minimize field joints. Lap joints a minimum of 6 inches and tape with Fiberweb Tape. Carefully place reinforcing over vapor barrier using reinforcing chairs with flat bases to support the reinforcing.


Masonry Thru-Wall Flashing:
Product Description: Fiberweb 200, 300, and 310 Masonry Thru-Wall Flashing is a strong and durable membrane which remains flexible at extreme temperatures, will not shrink or sag, and will resist accidental punctures during installation. Also Fiberweb thru-wall flashings are formable and can be folded to shape during installation.

Fiberweb has exceptional tensile strength and puncture resistance.

Installation:
Starting 1/2 inch from face, extend Fiberweb flashing through veneer and turn up a minimum of 8 inches. Bed in mortar joints of masonry. Seal to concrete with roofing cement. Seal into sheathing over wood, steel stud, or framed back-up. Lap end joints a minimum of 6 inches and seal watertight with Fiberweb Tape.
