000101 - 23

37.4 EXECUTION

A. ADA Ramp: Install and integrate pressure treated logs in the construction of the ADA and ABAAS compliant ramps as shown in the drawings and as directed by the Contraction Officer or Representative. NOTE: all log to log joints are to be saddle notched.

Mechanically treat the log sections to give the appearance of hewn logs. The intent is to use dimensional lumber only where it can be hidden if possible, with the exception being the decking.

B. Repair of the pavilion logs:

Wood splicing can involve several types of techniques. Also referred to as "piecing-in" or "Dutchman" repair, it involves treating a localized area of deterioration by cutting out the decayed area of the log, and carefully carving and installing a matching, seasoned wood replacement plug or splice. The wood species, if available, and the direction and pattern of the grain should match that of adjacent original wood. The location and depth of decay should determine the splicing technique to be used. In a case where decay runs deep within a log, a full-depth segment containing the affected area can be cut out, severing the log completely, and a new segment of log spliced in, using angled "scarf" joints. Square cut joints are not allowed. Splicing should be performed using epoxy as an adhesive. A log with shallow decay on its outer face can be cut back to sound depth, and a half-log face spliced on, adhered with epoxy, screws or fiberglass rebar. The “facing and splicing” shall be done in such a way as to hide the joints in the saddle notch seams and existing log joints.

E. Use borate impregnated glass rods inside the repair area to prevent future moisture related decay.

F. Whole sill log replacement : This is an optional alternative and if performed, must be done by experienced professionals following the guidelines and necessary procedures to protect the structural and historic integrity of this building.

G. Replacement of front porch rails: Install and integrate pressure treated logs in the construction of the porch rails to match the existing and as shown in the photos (Appendix) and as directed by the Contraction Officer or Representative. NOTE: all log to log joints are to be saddle notched.

Mechanically treat the log sections to give the appearance of hewn logs.

H. ALL REPAIRS MUST FOLLOW PRESERVATION METHODS & TECHNIQUES

DESCRIBED IN THE US PARK SERVICE “PRESERVATION BRIEFS FOR HISTORIC

LOG BUILDINGS. Please refer to photos in the appendix for more information.
