About this file

This document provides details for a federal construction contract opportunity for a Radiology Expansion project at the Northern Arizona VA Medical Center. The scope of work involves renovating and expanding an existing radiology area through new construction and demolition of approximately 3,000 square feet of an existing lab expansion. Key requirements include optimizing the department footprint with centralized waiting, wide hallways, and sufficiently sized rooms. The project also aims to provide ground level access throughout radiology, enable a future second story addition, and include structural and utility work for an elevator and access stairs.

The solicitation will be issued as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-aside construction contract valued between $5-10 million, with a 425-day period of performance. The solicitation and drawings will be posted to FBO.com under NAICS code 236220. All questions must be submitted in writing to the issuing office by the specified due date.

PART 3 — EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

A. The installer shall examine conditions of substrates and other conditions under which this work is to be performed and notify the contractor, in writing, of circumstances detrimental to the proper completion of the work. Do not proceed with work until unsatisfactory conditions are corrected.

3.2 PREPARATION OF SUBSTRATES

A. Refer to manufacturer’s literature for requirements for preparation of substrates. Surfaces shall be structurally sound and free of voids, spalled areas, loose aggregate and sharp protrusions. Remove contaminants such as grease, oil and wax from exposed surfaces. Remove dust, dirt, loose stone and debris. Use repair materials and methods which are acceptable to manufacturer of sheet membrane waterproofing.

B. Cast-In-Place Concrete Substrates:

1. Do not proceed with installation until concrete has properly cured and dried

(minimum 7 days for normal structural concrete and minimum 14 days for lightweight structural concrete).

2. Fill form tie rod holes with concrete and finish flush with surrounding surface.

3. Repair bugholes over 13 mm (0.5 in.) in length and 6 mm (0.25 in.)

deep and finish flush with surrounding surface.

4. Remove scaling to sound, unaffected concrete and repair exposed area.

5. Grind irregular construction joints to suitable flush surface.

C. Masonry Substrates: Apply waterproofing over concrete block and brick with smooth trowel-cut mortar joints or parge coat.

D. Wood Substrates: Apply waterproofing membrane over securely fastened sound surface. All joints and fasteners shall be flush to create a smooth surface.

E. Related Materials: Treat joints and install flashing as recommended by waterproofing manufacturer.

3.3 INSTALLATION

A. Refer to manufacturer’s literature for recommendations on installation, including but not limited to, the following:

1. Apply primer at rate recommended by manufacturer. Recoat areas not waterproofed if contaminated by dust. Mask and protect adjoining exposed finish surfaces to protect those surfaces from excessive application of primer.

2. Delay application of membrane until primer is completely dry. Dry time will vary with weather conditions.

3. Seal daily terminations with troweled bead of mastic.

4. Apply protection board and related materials in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.

3.4 CLEANING AND PROTECTION

A. Remove any masking materials after installation. Clean any stains on materials which would be exposed in the completed work.
