    This document amends OPSS 904 by adding definitions, design requirements, material specifications, and construction guidelines for the use of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) foam. Key points include: - EVA foam must have a compression-deflection range of 34 to 90 kPa when compressed by 25% of its original thickness. - Product data sheets for the EVA foam must be submitted at least 7 days before installation. - EVA foam is to be uniformly attached to concrete surfaces using an adhesive compatible with the foam. - Multiple foam layers can be used if needed to meet specified thicknesses, and must be fully bonded together. - Continuous runs of EVA

    Amendment to OPSS 904, November 2019

    Special Provision No. 109S18 October 2020

    Use of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Foam

    904.03 DEFINITIONS

    Section 904.03 of OPSS 904 is amended by the addition of the following:

    Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Foam means a closed-cell, flexible cellular foam product with a low density,
    cross-linked copolymers, and containing ethylene vinyl acetate.

    904.04 DESIGN AND SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

    Section 904.04 of OPSS 904 is amended by the addition of the following clause:

    904.04.01.06 EVA Foam

    A minimum of seven Days prior to installation, a product data sheet for the EVA foam to be used in the work
    shall be submitted to the Contract Administrator. The data sheet shall clearly identify that the supplied EVA
    foam meets the requirements of this specification.

    904.05 MATERIALS

    Section 904.05 of OPSS 904 is amended by the addition of the following subsection:

    904.05.12 EVA Foam

    EVA foam shall have a compression-deflection range of 34 to 90 kPa when compressed by 25% of its original
    thickness. The material does not require any specific resistance to the action of petroleum base oils.

    Adhesive shall be commercial construction grade as recommended by the EVA foam manufacturer and shall
    be compatible and appropriate for its intended use.

    904.07 CONSTRUCTION

    Section 904.07 of OPSS 904 is amended by the addition of the following subsection:

    904.07.19 Installation of EVA Foam

    EVA foam shall be installed at locations specified on the Contract Drawings. EVA foam shall be uniformly
    attached to all fixed concrete surfaces by means of an adhesive. Adhesive for EVA foam installation shall be
    applied to concrete surfaces that are free of dust, dirt, debris, and loose concrete.

    When EVA foam thickness specified in the Contract Drawings is greater than thickness commercially
    available, multiple layers of EVA foam may be used to meet the specified thickness. Multiple layers of EVA
    foam shall be fully bonded to each other using adhesive.

    The minimum length of continuous EVA foam shall be the lesser of the element length or 1.2 m.
