About this file
This is a specification document for rough carpentry work issued by the Fontana Unified School District (FUSD), a K-12 school district in San Bernardino County, California serving approximately 32,000 students across 45 school sites. The specification details requirements for rough carpentry installation including structural and framing lumber, plywood web joists, glued laminate members, and related work. The document specifies lumber species and grades (Douglas fir, larch, hemlock, and California redwood) with distinct grade requirements based on application, including Construction Board for sheathing, No. 1 Structural grades for posts and beams, and Construction Light Framing for joists and rafters. All lumber must be air-dried to a maximum 19 percent moisture content, and preservative-treated lumber is required for mudsills, plates in contact with earth or concrete, and other specified applications. The specification includes detailed requirements for plywood sheathing, firestopping, framing connections, fasteners, and installation standards that conform to CBC (California Building Code) Chapter 23 requirements. The contract is associated with Bid No. 25/26-0045 for Portable Buildings - Maintenance & Repairs with a sealed bid deadline of 2:00 pm on Tuesday, May 26, 2026.
The District estimates annual costs for portable building maintenance and repairs may reach $1,500,000, with the resulting contract having a duration of four additional years not to exceed five years total. The specification requires compliance with established grading standards from organizations including the Redwood Inspection Service, West Coast Lumber Inspection Bureau (WCLIB), Western Wood Products Association (WWPA), and American Plywood Association (APA). Contractors must manage all costs associated with lumber defects, including mold remediation, testing, and reporting by a Certified Industrial Hygienist when required. Materials must be protected from weather during transit and storage, with treated lumber requiring adequate air circulation and spacers between courses. The specification mandates galvanized fasteners for exterior and high-humidity applications, approved framing connectors from specified manufacturers or approved equivalents, and strict adherence to installation tolerances including maximum one-quarter inch deviation from true alignment in 10 feet and one-eighth inch floor surface flatness in 10 feet.
