About this file
This is a Project Manual for Synthetic Turf Projects prepared by Ogden City School District (OCSD) in Nibley, Utah, detailing specifications for the replacement and installation of artificial turf systems across five school district locations. The project encompasses replacement of existing synthetic turf and conversion of natural grass to synthetic turf at Spence Eccles Ogden Community Sports Complex Field 1, Ogden High School, Ben Lomond High School, New Bridge Elementary School, and Polk Elementary School. Construction timelines span from April 1, 2026 through July 31, 2026, with individual site completion dates ranging from May 16, 2026 to July 31, 2026. The manual specifies that bidders must have been in business for at least ten years with a minimum of ten similar installations exceeding 50,000 square feet completed within the past five years and within 700 miles of the project site. Bidders must be members of the American Sports Builders Association and must submit resumes of the Project Manager and Installation Foreman, reference lists with verifiable contacts, fiber source documentation, shop drawings with field layouts and seaming plans, and a minimum twelve-year warranty from a single source with third-party bonded coverage.
The specifications require Tencate Pivot synthetic turf or equivalent with monofilament fibers, minimum 100 ounces per square yard face weight, tuft bind strength of 9 pounds, and infill material meeting minimum 2.5 pounds per square foot. Initial G-max testing must fall between 80 and 110 at installation and not exceed 165 during the warranty period, with testing performed according to ASTM F355 and F1936 standards. The warranty must provide complete replacement coverage including materials, workmanship, removal, and disposal with no deductibles or prorated coverage, and must include coverage for the discus event. Contractors must supply attic stock consisting of twenty 500-square-foot rolls of each green color and 36 square feet of additional colors, three field sweepers, and one zero-turn blower with owner training. A $100,000 general construction contingency allowance is included for owner-directed changes. All submittals, including product data, test results, and warranty documents, must be provided in digital format; substitutions are permitted only during the bidding process using the specified Voluntary Substitution Sheet.
