About this file
This document is Addendum No. 2 for the Jester Park Nature Center Addition project, issued by Polk County Conservation and designed by MA Architecture on October 18, 2023. The addendum modifies the original contract documents and provides clarifications for the construction project, including a project completion date of July 15, 2024. Key updates include confirming the general contractor's responsibility for building permits, clarifying special inspection responsibilities, and addressing various technical questions about structural insulated panels (SIPs), building materials, and construction requirements.
The addendum includes several important modifications: approved substitution requests for air barriers, structural panels, and toilet accessories; changes to architectural drawings and specifications; and detailed installation instructions for structural insulated panels. The project involves modifications to an existing nature center, with specific requirements for construction techniques, material specifications, and site management. Liquidated damages will be part of the contract and are non-negotiable, though the project completion date has been extended. The addendum provides comprehensive guidance for contractors, including detailed technical specifications for materials, installation methods, and quality assurance requirements.

4. Vapor Retarders: Provide vapor retarders mandated by building code. Provide a vapor retarder, such as 6 mil (0.006") (0.15 mm) polyethylene on SIP applications which are connected using methods other than surface splines.
5. Thermal Barriers: Interior surfaces of SIPs shall be finished with a minimum 15-minute thermal barrier, such as 1/2" (13 mm) gypsum wallboard, nominal 1" (25 mm) wood paneling, or other approved materials. Apply code approved thermal barriers according to SIP manufacturer’s recommendations.
6. Restrictions: Do not install SIPs directly on concrete. Do not put plumbing in SIPs without consulting SIP manufacturer. Do not overcut skins for field-cut openings and do not cut skins for electrical chases. SIPs shall be protected from exposure to solvents and their vapors that damage the EPS foam core.
7. Remove and replace insulated wall or roof SIPs which have become excessively wet or damaged before proceeding with installation of additional SIPs or other work.
