About this file
This is a technical specification document for Section 096723 – Resinous Flooring, prepared for the City of Pembroke Pines' epoxy replacement project at Charles F. Dodge City Hall in Broward County, Florida. The project requires installation of a Sherwin-Williams Resuflor Deco Flake BC high-performance resinous flooring system with a nominal thickness of 20-30 mils in the Great Hall. The specification mandates that all work be performed by manufacturer-authorized and qualified installers with a minimum of five years in business and three references from similar projects completed within the last two years. Submittals must include product data, installer qualification certificates, material certificates, maintenance manuals, two 6" x 6" color and texture samples on rigid backing, and a comprehensive product schedule. A mandatory pre-installation conference must be conducted at the project site, followed by full-thickness mockups on a 16 square-foot floor area for architect approval before installation proceeds. The work window is restricted to July 30, 2026 through August 30, 2026, with installation permitted only on weekends and Thursday evenings after 5:00 p.m. until Sunday at 11:00 p.m., with a 25-calendar-day completion requirement from Notice to Proceed. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for March 3, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., with questions due by March 17, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. and final answers issued March 23, 2026. Electronic bids are due by 2:00 p.m. on March 31, 2026, with public bid opening at 2:30 p.m. the same day; City Commission award recommendation is scheduled for May 6, 2026, and Notice to Proceed will be issued by May 20, 2026.
The estimated project cost is $150,000, with proposal security of $10,000 or 5 percent of the total bid amount (whichever is less) required from all bidders. The specification requires comprehensive general liability insurance with limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, workers' compensation coverage, auto liability insurance, and $2,000,000 umbrella/excess liability coverage, with the City named as additional insured. Two separate payment and performance bonds, each equal to 100 percent of the contract price, are mandatory. The contractor must provide both a seven-year workmanship labor warranty and a seven-year product warranty from the manufacturer. The project is subject to federal Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and HUD Section 3 provisions, requiring at least 25 percent of total project hours from Section 3 workers and 5 percent from Targeted Section 3 workers, with mandatory weekly certified payroll reporting using DOL Form WH-347. Liquidated damages are assessed at $964 per day for failure to meet start or completion dates. The City will waive all City-related permit and license fees, with state or county fees covered through an Owner's Contingency allowance. Surface preparation must achieve specific concrete profile numbers per ICRI No. 03732 standards, with moisture vapor emissions not exceeding 3 lbs. of water per 1,000 square feet in 24 hours per ASTM F 1869 testing and relative humidity not exceeding 75 percent per ASTM F 2170 testing.

Report all conditions which affect Work. No "waiver of responsibility" for incomplete, inadequate or defective underlaying and adjoining work, surfaces and conditions will be considered, unless notice of such unsatisfactory conditions has been filed and agreed to in writing before Work begins. Commencement of Work constitutes acceptance of surfaces.
B. Surface Preparation: Remove all surface contamination, loose or weakly adherent particles, laitance, grease, oil, curing compounds, paint, dust and debris by blast track method or approved mechanical means (acid etch not allowed). If surface is questionable, try a test patch. Create a minimum surface profile for the system specified in accordance with the methods described in ICRI No. 03732 to achieve profile numbers as follows:
1. Thin film, to 10 mils
CSP-1 to CSP-3

CSP-3 to CSP-5
3. Self-leveling mortars, to 3/16”
CSP-4 to CSP-6
4. Mortars and laminates, to 1/4” or more
CSP-5 to CSP-10 C. Verify that concrete substrates are dry and moisture-vapor emissions are within acceptable levels according to manufacturer's written instructions.
1. Moisture Testing: Perform tests indicated below.
a. Calcium Chloride Test: Perform anhydrous calcium chloride test per ASTM F 1869. Proceed with installation only after substrates have maximum moisture-vapor-emission rate of 3 lbs. of water/1000 sq. ft. in 24 hours. Perform tests so that each test area does not exceed 1000 sq. ft. and perform 3 tests for the first 1000 sq. ft. and one additional test for every additional 1000 sq ft.
b. In-Situ Probe Test: Perform relative-humidity test using in-situ probes per ASTM F 2170. Proceed with installation only after substrates have a maximum 75 percent relative-humidity-level measurement.
