PART 3 - EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

A. Examine and verify specific space and conditions described in individual Specification Sections.

B. Verify that utility services are available with correct characteristics and in correct locations.

C. Failure to so inspect, verify and report shall constitute an acceptance of the field condition, or other work, as fit and proper for the reception of his work.

D. Promptly report to the Engineer any defects in such work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results; written report shall include:

5. Verify compatibility with and suitability of substrates.

6. Examine roughing-in systems to verify actual locations of connections before equipment and fixture installation.

7. Examine walls, floors, and roofs for suitable conditions where products and systems are to be installed.

8. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected. Proceeding with the Work indicates acceptance of surfaces and conditions.

3.2 EXECUTION

A. Locate the Work and components of the Work accurately, in correct alignment and elevation, as indicated.

1. Make vertical work plumb and make horizontal work level.

2. Where space is limited, install components to maximize space available for maintenance and ease of removal for replacement.

3. Conceal pipes, ducts, and wiring in finished areas, unless otherwise indicated.

4. Maintain minimum headroom clearance of 8 feet in spaces without a suspended ceiling.

B. Comply with manufacturer's installation instructions, performing each step in sequence.

Maintain one set of manufacturer's installation instructions at Project Site during installation and until completion of construction.

C. Climatic Conditions and Project Status: Install each unit of Work under conditions to ensure best possible results in coordination with entire Project.

1. Isolate each unit of Work from incompatible Work as necessary to prevent deterioration.

2. Coordinate enclosure of Work with required inspections and tests to minimize necessity of uncovering Work for those purposes.

D. Adjust operating products and equipment to ensure smooth and unhindered operation.

3.3 PROGRESS CLEANING

A. Site: Maintain Project site free of waste materials and debris.

B. Work Areas: Clean areas where work is in progress to the level of cleanliness necessary for proper execution of the Work.

1. Remove liquid spills promptly.

2. Where dust would impair proper execution of the Work, broom-clean or vacuum the entire work area, as appropriate.

C. Installed Work: Keep installed work clean. Clean installed surfaces according to written instructions of manufacturer or fabricator of product installed, using only cleaning materials specifically recommended. If specific cleaning materials are not recommended, use cleaning materials that are not hazardous to health or property and that will not damage exposed surfaces.

D. Concealed Spaces: Remove debris from concealed spaces before enclosing the space.

E. Exposed Surfaces in Finished Areas: Clean exposed surfaces and protect as necessary to ensure freedom from damage and deterioration at time of Substantial Completion.

F. Waste Disposal: Burying or burning waste materials on-site will not be permitted.

Washing waste materials down sewers or into waterways will not be permitted.

G. During handling and installation, clean and protect construction in progress and adjoining materials already in place. Apply protective covering where required to ensure protection from damage or deterioration at Substantial Completion.

H. Clean and provide maintenance on completed construction as frequently as necessary through the remainder of the construction period. Adjust and lubricate operable components to ensure operability without damaging effects.

I. Limiting Exposures: Supervise construction operations to assure that no part of the construction, completed or in progress, is subject to harmful, dangerous, damaging, or otherwise deleterious exposure during the construction period.

3.4 CORRECTION OF DEFECTIVE WORK

A. Repair or remove and replace defective construction. Restore damaged substrates and finishes.

1. Repairing includes replacing defective parts, refinishing damaged surfaces, touching up with matching materials, and properly adjusting operating equipment.

B. Restore permanent facilities used during construction to their specified condition.

C. Remove and replace damaged surfaces that are exposed to view if surfaces cannot be repaired without visible evidence of repair.

D. Repair components that do not operate properly. Remove and replace operating components that cannot be repaired.

END OF SECTION

D. Adjust operating products and equipment to ensure smooth and unhindered operation.
