SCOPE OF WORKPurpose:The purpose of this project is two fold:• •Construct a biomass building with the combined uses of biomass storage and heat generation.General Conditions:The scope of work below is inclusive and assumes that the contractor will remove, demolish, repair, replace, cleanup, et cetera as necessary for the work.• •All demolition and removal (except as noted) includes offsite disposal at the contractor's expense.• •Materials and conditions are to be as found on sheet S1, 'Structural Notes'.• •The contractor is to provide all necessary shoring and bracing. In addition, the contractor is to keep the building weather tight during the work and to keep the buildingsecure at all times.• •At the end of the project, clean up and restore the building, grounds, and units to an 'as found' or better condition.• •Finishes are to be reviewed and approved by the owners before purchase and installation. The quality is to be 'new' and is subject to review and approval by the projectowners and the Engineer of Record.Scope of work and work sequence:In order to allow for coordination and verification of actual building conditions, the work will be staged as follows:Stage 1 - Excavation and Backfilla. Stake out the project area.b. Excavate the the building area from the ground surface down to bed rock or to dense mineral soils (gravels or sandy-gravels).c. Backfill with compacted, free draining gravel with 5% or less fines. Compact in 12" loose lifts and compact to 95% of ASTM D1557. The surface of each lift shouldbe hard and unyielding. The minimum extent of the excavation should be the dimensions of the building plus 4-feet on each side of the building: 58' x 28' or wider.Conform to all state and federal safety requirements regarding excavations, slopes, and shoring and bracing.2. Stage 2 - Exterior Preparation:a. Construct a 20 foot wide x 50 foot long concrete pad with rolled edges as shown on sheet S5, the foundation plan. Include reinforcing, anchor bolts, and hold downsas shown on the plans. Provide rigid insulation accordance with the Alaska Energy code and as shown on the drawings.3. Stage 3 - Building construction:a. Construct a wood framed building as shown on the plans and sections.b. Finishes:i. Roof - 22 gauge metal roofing for 130 mph winds.ii. Siding - 22 gauge metal siding to resist a 130 mph wind. Install according to the manufacturer's recommendations and instructions.iii. Interior - 5/8" gypsum wall board, water resistive. Fire block and tape, smooth finish. In the wood storage area use 5/8" plywood for wall sheathing.iv. Painting, interior - Sherwin Williams best quality. Seal the GWB & plywood, then prime with one coat of latex, vapor retarded primer Then paint with twocoats of vapor retarder latex paint. Color by owner from Sherwin Williams full range of available colors.v. Concrete, exterior - light broom.vi. Concrete, interior - smooth. Do not over finish. Leave a light bite in the surface for safety when the concrete is wet.4. Stage 4 - Project closeout.a. Verify that all finishes are in 'as new condition' and that any finishes damaged on adjacent buildings or site work are restored to as new condition.b. Paint all new trim and siding with 1 coat of primer and two coats of exterior grade oil paint to match the existing, adjacent, buildings. Paint tobe Sherwin Williams best grade and applied in strict accordance to the manufacturer's instructions.c. Clean up, restore, and plant the work area to match the surrounding landscaping. Leave the building and grounds in 'as found' condition for allmaterials and site conditions that remain. Clean up work and landscaping must be approved by the owner and engineer before the project is complete.d. Clean up and restore the project site.TYPICAL SHEAR WALL NOTESbut not less than noted in the shear wall table below. In the case of conflicts, use the closer spacing. Anchor bolts shall have 3 x3 x 1/4" steel plate washers. Locate the center ofthe thicker sheathing. All free sheathing edges shall be blocked with 2x4 or 2x6 flat blocking. Any exceptions will be noted explicitly on the drawings or the shear wall notesbelow.sheets may be used where all panel edges are supported by framing and blocking.Regardless of other circumstances, all panels must be supported on two sides by wall studs.Pressure treated material requires that all fasteners and connectors must be "post" hot dipped galvanized. Galvanizing shall be ASTM A123 for connectors and ASTM A153 forfasteners. Simpson "Zmax" is an acceptable equal per ASTM A653. Stainless steel fasteners and connectors are also acceptable for pressure treated wood. When using stainlesssteel or hot dipped galvanized connectors, the connectors and fasteners must be made of the same material.All roof and wall framing lumber shall be #2 Douglas Fir-Larch or better.SHEAR WALL SCHEDULEW-1(365)W-3(685) shall not be less than a single 3x member.
