Bidding Instructions: We are the acting GC for this project This will be Phased Construction Please Review the owner’s notes at the bottom of the page Project consists of upgrading one of the (2) elevators at the facility. Both shafts are right beside each other in the core of the facility. There is access to both the front and the rear of the elevators on all (3) floors. The general scope is expanding the identified shaft to accommodate a larger elevator. Division 2 Site: Selective Demolition, Shoring Division 3 Concrete: Concrete Forming and Accessories, Concrete Reinforcing, Cast-in-Place Concrete Division 4 Masonry: Unit Masonry Division 5 Metals: Structural Steel Framing, Steel Decking, Cold Formed Metal Framing Division 6 Wood and Plastics: Plastic Paneling, Rough Carpentry Division 7 Thermal and Moisture Protection: Bituminous Dampproofing, Thermal Insulation, Vapor Retarders, Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) Roofing, Sheet Metal Flashing And Trim, Penetration Firestopping, Joint Firestopping, Joint Sealants Division 8 Doors and Windows: N/A Division 9 Finishes: Gypsum Board, Acoustical Panel Ceilings, Resilient Flooring, Resilient Base And Accessories, Interior Painting, Wall Coverings Division 10 Specialties: N/A Division 11 Equipment: N/A Division 12 Furnishings: N/A Division 13 Special Construction: N/A Division 15 Mechanical: N/A Division 16 Electrical: N/A Notes From Owner: Elevator “2” must continue to operate throughout the course of the project. Existing Elevator “1” should be kept operational as long as possible in order to minimize the amount of time the building is forced to operate on only one elevator. The building will be only partially occupied at the start of work but the patient census is expected to be full by the time the work is complete. Disruptive demolition work should be commenced as soon as possible and completed as quickly as possible in order to minimize disturbance to nearby residents once the building is full. Some construction activity in the front-of-house elevator lobbies is unavoidable, but as much as is practicable construction activities should be kept to the back of house corridors and designated lay-down areas. Additional Con-Ex storage may be located at the building exterior where allowed by the Owner. Movement near and around the service “back-of-house” areas will need to be accessible to our staff with-in reason. Mostly on the ground level to maintain Staff access to Kitchen, Service Hall, and to the Service Elevator. This will be more important as the census grows and food delivery expands to the upper floors. Please be mindful of the Finish Schedule and materials to put back all the disrupted areas. The wall covering on the 2nd floor elevator lobby is discontinued, but we were able to locate “attic stock” to patch in where needed due to the widening of the NEW elevator door width. The other floors finish materials will need to be accounted for in your bid along with all of the other finishes, as we do not want to deplete our attic stocks. Since the discontinuation affects only the small section on the 2nd floor (Elevator Lobby), we are willing spare some of the attic stock for just that (1) material. Any and all Power, Water, Sprinkler System, Fire Alarm disruptions related to any demo or new connections and or re-routing must be coordinate ahead of time with Facility Operations. Anytime any of the Life Safety Systems will be out of service for any amount of time, a FIRE WATCH will need to be initiated by the GC in coordination with the facility operations and Ciena/State mandated protocols. ALL of the work areas will need to be isolated/temporary walled off and made secure and safe for both our staff, visitors and resident/guests. The fashion on how this will be completed we leave to the GC whether its hard wall or ZIP wall type or a combination of the two. This will become more of a need, as at some point work will be on-going on all (3) floors simultaneously, including the roof. Please review pH7’s suggestion to leave access to the back side of the NEW Shaft to allow the “demo” of the old shaft wall for easier removal of demo debris. Again, this team is trying to limit the downtime of the operation of the unit and disruptions to operations. Limiting our project duration is our goal. To get this project completed as soon as possible, pH7 has coordinated with KONE and established the initial phasing as identified in the plans. The driving factors are the fabrication and availability of the NEW elevator itself. Which will govern the mobilization and start or the demo activities to coordinate on when the new elevator will be ready. Obviously having your schedule reflect the new “expanded” shaft being ready when the NEW elevator is ready, etc. We are open to the GC looking/engaging others and or finding a willing party to “gently” remove the brand-new elevator and work out some kind of arrangement to limit/offset demo costs. Kone does not want or deals in used gear. As this unit has barely any use on it, it would be a shame to see it get discarded as debris.
