3.11. ROOF AND ROOF INSULATION

The contractor shall remove the existing roof of the kindergarten and provide a new preformed metal sheet roofing in order to provide a 10 year warrantee covering any roof water infiltration.

Basis of design:

Removal of all wooden elements from the roof, including the structure and the eaves. The contractor can reutilize any member of the roof structure after they are removed, cleaned, treated, inspected and accepted by the architect. Any reutilized structural member shall be physically stamped and signed by the architect in a visible location, for visual inspection by the COR. It is not only allowed but this contract, but it is a contract requirement to reutilize any existing roofing material that complies with Ukrainian regulations after it is removed, cleaned and treated, and stamped and signed by the architect.

Remove materials currently stored on the area under the roof (such as furniture) and move them to a location within the kindergarten plot of land, to be indicated by the kindergarten director.

Any asbestos containing materials shall be removed by the beneficiary. This contract does not include any asbestos handling or abatement. If any asbestos containing materials are found, the contractor shall notify the beneficiary with a minimum of 45 days advance notice of when these materials would need to be removed. It is estimated that the roof cover is made up of corrugated asbestos containing roof sheets and that there are numerous pieces of broken asbestos containing pieces of roof sheets on the floor of the roof. Although the contractor is not responsible to remove the asbestos containing materials, they are responsible to provide safe access to the roof areas in which the asbestos containing materials are found. For this reason, the contractor shall estimate that they will need to provide a certified scaffolding safe access to the roof areas from the exterior of the building. This safe access shall be made with the use of a scaffolding stairway system

Provide new perimeter beam (wood, metal or concrete) over the perimeter enclosure walls of the building in which to support the new roof structure

Provide new gutters around the entire perimeter of the kindergarten. Provide the necessary downspouts over the new façade surface.

Works includes all necessary works in order to provide a certified roof cover for the entire kindergarten. Those elements which may be necessary, but which are not described in this document, are included part of this project. For example, if snow stops are required but not specified, the contractor shall provide them. Or if for example, it is necessary according to Ukrainian standards to have a permanent access ladder, which is not specified anywhere, the contractor shall include in the contract a new permanent access ladder. Or if for example, it is required to have new lightning protection and new pertinent grounding system for the lightning protection, the contractor shall provide this new lightning and grounding systems as if perfectly detailed in this document. All elements which are required by Ukrainian regulations for the roof to be certified in compliance with Ukrainian regulations shall be considered part of this contract.

Thermally insulated. The new roofing system shall be thermally insulated. The contractor shall choose the material and place for installation, but the thermal insulation shall be similar to the

Conceptual definition of roof dormer thermal insulation that would be provided by the application of 8 cm of extruded polystyrene foam on the flat flooring under the roof.

The contractor shall provide a new roof cover in order to provide a 10 year warrantee covering any roof water infiltration.

Design of the new roofing system shall be done to maximize the use of natural light. This means that the contractor shall need to provide a minimum of 2 roof dormers with fully operational PVC windows to close in the winter and to open in the summer.

Provide electrical lighting system.

Design to be prepared by architect/engineer, as required by Ukrainian regulations, and certified by Ukrainian roof expertise, regardless of the requirements of Ukrainian regulations.

Roof Access

In addition to all other safety requirements, for the beneficiary to be able to access the roof to remove any asbestos containing material, the contractor shall prepare a safe scaffolding access similar to the ones shown in the pictures below. All scaffolding systems to be used in this project shall be European rated and certified as described in the next paragraph, and the beneficiary’s access to the roof shall not be an exception.

Required type of scaffold and main components

3.12. SCAFFOLDING – MANLIFTS – HARNESS – FALL PROTECTION

To perform the works in this contract, the contractor shall be required to install scaffolding or to use manlifts. The contractor is required to provide a scaffolding design to be signed and certified by a licensed Ukrainian engineer or other technician authorized by Ukrainian regulations.

Despite the scaffolds that may be authorized by Ukrainian regulations, the contractor is only authorized to utilize European Standard scaffolds similar to the ones shown in pictures below. These scaffolds shall be installed and used in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. In case the contractor needs to access the façade at any particular point without the need to install scaffolds, the contractor shall use a CE certified self-propelled man-lift, similar to the one shown in pictures below. The use of other type of scaffolds, other non CE certified man-lifts, or any type of ladders for façade or roof work, IS NOT AUTHORIZED. This is applicable for all works in this contract.

In addition to all other previously described safety requirements, for any scaffolding over 3 meters of height, the contractor shall prepare a scaffolding project, to be signed and stamped by a licensed architect or engineer in Ukraine and to be certified by a licensed safety expertise in Ukraine. If this is not required by Ukrainian regulations, it is part of this contract, and consequently no scaffolding shall be installed without this approved and certified project. Additionally, no person shall use the scaffolding until it is certified on site by the expert who approved the project.
