About this file

This document is a Scope of Work for the stabilization of Cabin 4 at the Grand Teton Climbers' Ranch in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. The project will involve racking the building to plumb and installing four timber columns set in shallow reinforced concrete footers on the exterior of the building. Additionally, log purlins will be sistered onto the bottom of the existing purlins inside the structure to provide roof support. The work is the result of a previous structural engineering assessment. The period of performance is 90 days from the date of the Notice to Proceed to substantial completion. Key requirements include following all relevant building codes, adhering to environmental and sustainability requirements, implementing an accident prevention program, and providing various submittals such as a design and construction schedule, quality control plan, and operation and maintenance data at project closeout.

1 Project Introduction

Project Name: Stabilize Climbers' Ranch Cabin 4 Structure

Park Name and Address:

Grand Teton National Park

PO BOX 170

Moose, WY 83012

1.1 Location and Facilities

This project is located at 314 Climbers Ranch Road, Moose, WY 83012. 4.4 miles north of Grand Teton

National Park Moose Entrance Station off Teton Park Road and south of Jenny Lake. An authorized concessioner of the National Park Service operates these facilities. Climbers Ranch offers affordable and accessible lodging for climbers and outdoor adventurers visiting Grand Teton National Park.

Short Project Description

Stabilize Cabin 4 at the Grand Teton Climbers' Ranch. In the Fall of 2022, the National Park Service conducted a condition assessment at the Grand Teton Climbers’ Ranch. Further structural evaluation was required for

Climbers' Ranch Cabin 4 (FMSS 83049), and the results of the evaluation required structural stabilization. The cabin is of log construction with a vaulted metal roof and concrete footer foundation. This project will rack the building to plumb and install four timber columns set in shallow structurally reinforced concrete footers on the exterior of the building. Additionally, log purlins will be sistered onto the bottom of the existing purlins inside the structure to provide roof support. All improvements are results of a previous structural engineering assessment and will be in compliance with the design drawings.

4.2.1 Building Stabilization

Original Description of Deficiency:

Repair the west exterior wall. The west exterior wall is in a state of active failure. The wall is not plumb. The top of the wall has shifted out of plumb and towards the interior 5". The mid-height and lower portion of the wall has shifted significantly outward. The exterior wall supports approximately 30% of the west roof framing/construction.

Repair the east exterior wall. The east exterior wall has cupped/shifted at the mid height of the wall

(in alignment with the existing window opening). The wall is not plumb. The exterior wall supports approximately 30% of the east roof framing/construction.

Cabin 4 currently has temporary bracing.

G R T E • • P a g e | 16 of 24

Cabin 4 structural modifications include the installation of 4 to 5 4”x8” timber columns with log bracing stacks. The columns will be set in approximately 2’x2’x2’ concrete footers below grade, requiring a 3’x3’x2’ excavation for each column. The cabin walls will be secured to the columns, and bolts will be tensioned to rack the walls back to plumb or as close as possible. Additional log or timber purlins will be attached to the bottom of the existing log roof purlins to provide additional structural roof support. Electrical conduit and light fixtures on the existing purlins will be relocated as necessary. Where roof purlins do not have sufficient beam set on log columns, connections will be repaired with metal tie brackets.

Detailed Scope: Option 1 -

Provide metal flashing above the top log, covering the top of the log; extend down the side with a drip edge between the flashing and the top log; and bend over the end of the log to protect the end. Stain the logs to match the existing log cabin with a stain suitable for weather and environmental conditions.

2. Attach every third log of log bracing/stack (above the bottom log of the existing cabin) to a 4x8 treated timber column with Simpson DTT1Z strap tie (or equal).

During install tighten bolts at outside face in succession. If logs pull out, keep alternating with minor increments until some of the bow is removed. (It is not expected that much or all of the bow can be straightened out.) If/when washers start sinking into the face of logs, stop tightening. Extra threads at the outside face can be removed if they will cause a hazard.

Once logs are tightened and secured, the infill gap is cut to fit with wood or foam, and the cover ends of the foam are covered with plywood or 1x member to be stained to match the cabin.

4. 4x8 DF-L #1 treated timbers, minimum (2) per side, a third can be used at east side, south of east window to assist with adjustment of logs around window

1/4" x 8" SDS screws from timber column, at every other log below bowed section.

A flat seat can be provided as needed for the HL79 angle at the bottom of the purlin and the face of the wall logs. Attach new purlin to existing with 1" min. long OLYLOG screws at 24" o.c.

Note: In Lieu of 9” – 10” log purlins below existing: The Following options can also be used:

• A 8” x 10” (min) DF-L #1 timber purlin.

• A 7” x 9 - 1/2” (min) or (4) 1 -3/4” x 9 - 1/2” Versalam or Microllam lvl members.

Versalam or Microllam plies to be nailed together with (2) rows of 16d box/sinker nails;

(each ply) or 6” long Olylog screws (from each side) at 12” o.c. spacing.

9. Provide a log brace with stacked logs to match existing, at each column support. Bottom logs to be treated or use treated DF-L framing if /as required at bottom two logs.

G R T E • • P a g e | 19 of 24

Detailed Scope: Option 2 –

1. Attach every third log of the log bracing/stack (above the bottom log of the existing cabin) to a C9x

13.4 steel column with Simpson DTT1Z strap tie (or equal). Layout bracing/log stack prior to installing

C9x13.4 steel column; to install the 3/4" bolt for the anchorage of DTT1Z strap tie, with the head of bolt at the inside face of C9x 13.4 column.

If possible, drill holes on site to allow for adjustment /stacking of logs. If holes need to be provided during fabrication, half logs - or brown treated shim pieces can be used to adjust the log stack as needed for DTT1Z joints.

2. 3/8' threaded rods or bolts every other log with (2) 2 - 1/2 " x2 - 1/2" x 1/4" square washers. During installation, tighten bolts at the outside face in succession. If logs pull out, keep alternating with minor increments until some of the bow is removed. (it is not expected that much or all of the bow can be straightened out.) If /when washers start sinking into the face of logs - stop tightening. Extra threads at the outside face can be removed if they cause a hazard.

Once logs are tightened and logs secure, infill gap cut to fit with wood or foam and cover ends of foam with plywood -or- 1x member to be stained to match the cabin.

C9x 13.4 steel column, minimum (2) per side; a third can be used on the east side, south of the east window, to assist with the adjustment of logs around the window.

3. 1/4" x 4 - 1/2" SOS screws from web of C9x13.4 steel column to existing logs, at every other log below bowed section.
