Summary of 2-Prevailing Wages.pdf

This prevailing wage document pertains to the Borough of Saxonburg, Pennsylvania's John Roebling's Historic Wire Rope Workshop Restoration project. The project involves a design-build foundation renovation and site drainage restoration of a historic structure constructed in the 1840s. Work scope includes furnishing all labor, superintendence, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to complete architectural design, permitting, structural stabilization of existing stone and timber frameworks, masonry repairs for water infiltration remediation, and site drainage improvements. Bidding contractors are required to provide signed and sealed architectural, engineering, and final permit drawings to Codesys Code Consulting. Design costs must be separated and itemized in bids for reimbursement through grant funding.

The project is financed in part through a grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Commonwealth Financing Authority. All work must comply with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the treatment of Historic Properties, specifically restoration guidelines, to maintain the structure's architectural integrity and industrial character while preparing it for public access. The restoration effort aims to preserve this significant industrial landmark representing the birthplace of Roebling's revolutionary wire rope manufacturing process, which later enabled the construction of iconic American suspension bridges including the Brooklyn Bridge. Contractors must ensure compliance with prevailing wage requirements as outlined in the prevailing wages documentation.
