1 GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 Title of Project: Install Courtyard Barriers in the CLC 3rd floor terrace/courtyard in Transitional Living Building at the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care Facility in New Orleans, LA.

1.2 Scope of Work: The contractor shall provide all resources necessary to accomplish the deliverables described in this statement of work (SOW), except as may otherwise be specified. This includes but is not limited to: removal of the existing wiring partition, constructing a new anti-climb fence barrier, and modifying and extending the existing plexi-glass barrier as shown on the attached drawings. A lightning arrestor system will be added to the top of the new fencing and tied into the existing system.

1.3 Background: The barriers are installed to protect the patients from falls from the roof top.

The existing barriers do not provide an adequate level of protection. Increasing the height of the barrier at the courtyard and modifying the barrier at the patio to enclose it will provide a higher level of protection against falls from the roof top. The goal of the project is to provide a safer environment for the patients, visitors and employees who will be using these areas.
