Att. 04_Stucco Application.jpg

This is a technical diagram showing the layers involved in stucco application for the Carnero Stucco Repair Project. The image illustrates six distinct layers from exterior to interior: finish coat (outermost), brown coat, scratch coat, metal lath, felt paper, sheathing, and wall framing (innermost). This diagram aligns with the project requirements outlined in the solicitation, which calls for removal of existing stucco components and installation of new materials in the same layered sequence.

The diagram provides visual support for the Department of Agriculture Forest Service's solicitation requirements, specifically showing the standard components that contractors must remove and replace as part of the repair work. This includes the three-coat stucco application process (scratch, brown, and finish coats) as well as the underlying support materials (metal lath, felt paper, and structural elements) that must be addressed in areas with damage or wood rot.
