About this file

The document is an Addendum (Addendum 01) for the Engineering Annex Roof Replacement project at the University of New Orleans, prepared by Holly & Smith Architects. The project involves a comprehensive roof replacement for the Engineering Annex building, with a base bid covering the main roof and two alternate bids for the high roof and building connector roof. The addendum, dated April 22, 2025, modifies the original bid specifications and provides updates to various sections including photographic documentation, temporary facilities and controls, and SBS-modified bitumen membrane roofing. A pre-bid meeting was held on April 17, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with multiple roofing contractors in attendance, and the project requires completion within 120 consecutive calendar days, with liquidated damages of $300 per day for delays.

The roofing system specifications call for a two-ply SBS modified bitumen membrane roof system with polyisocyanurate insulation and a gypsum cover board, installed on an existing concrete roof deck. The project includes detailed requirements for membrane application, flashing, insulation, and various roof-mounted equipment integration. Acceptable manufacturers include SOPREMA (basis of design), Certainteed, Johns Manville, Polyglass, Siplast, and U.S. Ply. The contractor must provide a 20-year State of Louisiana No Dollar Limit (NDL) warranty from the manufacturer and a 2-year workmanship warranty. The project emphasizes specific installation techniques, safety protocols, and adherence to manufacturer and industry guidelines, with provisions for detailed inspections and documentation throughout the installation process.
