About this file

This is a specification document for aluminum sheeting issued by Iowa State Industries, applicable to a state and local contract opportunity for various sizes of aluminum sheeting for sign making in Iowa. The specifications define material requirements, quality standards, and packaging guidelines for multiple aluminum sheet configurations ranging in thickness from .063 inches to .125 inches and in dimensions from 30 inches to 60.5 inches in width and 120 to 144 inches in length. The document identifies 16 standard item numbers with specified sheet limits per skid, ranging from 25 to 100 sheets depending on dimensions and thickness, as well as four additional Iowa DOT (Department of Transportation) specifications. The material must be new domestic aluminum alloy 5052-H38 or 6061-T6 meeting ASTM B-209 standards and treated with Alodine 1200, Chromate 5015, or equivalent chemical conversion coating per MIL-C-5541B or ASTM B449-67 standards.

Vendors must comply with all Iowa DOT and Minnesota DOT specifications, provide mill certification with each load, and accept material inspection requirements prior to shipment. Sheets must be squared and meet minimum ordered dimensions with oversized material acceptable; undersized material will be returned at vendor expense. Shipping must be on open, tarped flatbed trucks with individual skid weights not exceeding 3,000 pounds, unloaded by forklift, and each skid must contain a minimum of three runners measuring at least 3 inches by 3 inches running the entire skid length. Any material failing to meet these specifications will be returned to the vendor at their expense.
