Installation Instructions:
The NBE.75 Embed must be installed into a rigid, structural substrate that meets the project engineer’s specifications.
Layout & Fastening
- Layout NBE.75 & attach to the form for desired location & height prior to concrete pour.
- NBE.75 Embeds can be suspended to the top of the form using 2 x 4’s or attached to the form for placement.
- Install port protection caps if you are not using the port to attach NBE.75 to form
____________________________________________________________________________
Concrete Pour
- Pour concrete & embed NBE.75. Do not allow concrete to cover the top NBE.75
- Let concrete cure according to manufactures guidelines
- Remove form and place port protection caps in port of NBE.75 to prevent contamination of the internal threaded port on NBE.75
____________________________________________________________________________
Surface Prep & Waterproofing
- Scarify each NBE.75 anchor mount per the waterproof flashing manufacturer’s recommendations to improve adhesion.
- Apply waterproofing per the roofing membranes manufacturers recommendations
- After waterproofing has cured, cut out the port protection caps to expose internal threads
____________________________________________________________________________
Washer Placement and Reassembly
- Place a minimum 1/16” thick washer over each NBE.75 port so that the washers sit directly on the waterproofing membrane.
- Use a washer with an ID size of at least 3/4” around the internal port of the NBE.75
- Attachment should never sit directly on the waterproofing
- ¾”-10 bolts for attachments
- Ensure bolt is fully seated in the port without bottoming out
- Torque to 60 ft-lbs using a hand tool only
- Use a level and structural shims if necessary
- No power tools for final tightening.
