Division 1 - General Requirements

01100 Summary

The purpose of this scope of work is to outline the steps required for conducting maintenance to the climbing tower located on Camp Dawson in Kingwood, WV. A structural epoxy is to be applied to all cavities present on the tower. A protective coat, according to the manufacturer’s directions, will be applied to all wooden surfaces of the climbing tower; for wood preservation and waterproofing.

Additionally, a form of textured paint is to be applied on the steps of the stairs and around the edge of the upper platform of the tower. Yellow paint markings for the upper platform of the tower will need to be reapplied as well. Attached at the bottom of this document are two pages providing a visual of the tower’s design on all four sides.

The objectives for this project are as follows:

• Fill cavities with structural epoxy for wood applications.

• Prepare surfaces for treatment per the preservative manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Apply wood protective coating to all surfaces of the tower to include walls, stairs, platforms, and railings.

Division 6 – Wood and Plastics

06900 Wood and Plastic Restoration and Cleaning

Structural epoxy applicable to wood surfaces is to be used to fill all cavities present on the climbing tower. All steps outlined by the manufacturer for preparation and application of the epoxy are to be followed. Example of applicable wood epoxy: Abatron WoodEpox.

Division 9 - Finishes

09050 Basic Materials and Methods

The climbing tower is approximately 50` x 22` x 56`, with an estimated surface area of 13,670 sq ft.

These measurements are purely approximations; contractor is responsible for accurate measures of area to be coated before approval and start of project. The tower is comprised of a mixture of pressure treated and glulam lumber. The recommended preservative is “Total Wood Preservative (TWP 100 series)” however, a brand of equal or greater value can be used. Contractor will be responsible for Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) regulation compliance with the location of use dependent on the type of wood preservative used. The surfaces to be treated must be prepped before any preservative is applied, at a minimum of what is recommended by the chemical manufacturer. All wood surfaces must be coated for the preservation of the tower. Post wood preservative treatment, a textured paint needs to be applied to the treads of the stairs and the outer edge of the top platform. The textured paint must provide anti-slip properties under normal and wet conditions. In addition, a high visibility yellow paint must be used to reapply the yellow markings present on the top platform to meet tower safety requirements.

09900 Paints and Coatings

The color of the wood preservative is preferred clear, particularly on the surfaces of the supporting poles. However, for the main body of the tower a natural color matching the current shade is acceptable. The color of the textured paint can match the existing paint or be of a neutral color. The paint color for the safety markings must be a high visibility yellow or shade of yellow that is bright and distinguishable from the tower.
