This will include, but not necessarily be limited to:

The removal of existing prefabricated stairway at the existing building. See drawings for general location of the above items and any other items to be removed.

The above items are not intended to be a complete take off of items to be removed but a general description of work to be performed. This Contractor shall visit the site, carefully examine present conditions, and shall be solely responsible for determining the extent of work and the amount of materials to be removed, handled and the amount of the labor involved to obtain the final results to complete the work.

Some items of work covered under other sections and not a part of this section are:

1.The demolition and removal of all existing structures, site improvements, paving and surfacing.

2.All utility lines to be disconnected, rerouted, reconnected or otherwise controlled.

3.Unless otherwise specified herein, all mechanical equipment, plumbing, piping, and electrical work will be removed, reconnected and/or otherwise disposed of under other sections of the specifications.

02. MATERIAL:

All materials, required for reuse, shall be carefully removed, cleaned and stored by this

Contractor for reinstallation by trades requiring the same.

All materials removed and noted to remain the property of the Owner shall be carefully removed by this Contractor and stored where directed.

All materials removed and not shown, noted and/or specified to be reused or remain the

02070-2 property of the Owner shall become the property of the Contractor and shall be immediately removed from the premises as directed by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR).

03. EXECUTION:

This Contractor shall take the site as he finds it and shall remove all materials and items required to be removed as shown and/or noted on the drawings, except as specifically excluded by items that are to be removed under other sections of the specifications as listed in 01. SCOPE above.

The existing building and premises shall remain in active use during demolition and construction operations. Precautions and provisions shall be made to hold noise, dirt and dust to a minimum. Consultations shall be held between this Contractor, the General Contractor, and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), so as to arrange the different phases of the work, to cause as little interference with the normal operation of base operations.

Execute all work in such a manner to avoid hazard to persons and property, interference with the use of the building and interruptions of free passage to and from the building.

Existing materials shall be cut, altered, removed and/or temporarily removed and replaced as necessary for the performance of the work to be done. Work remaining in place, damaged or defaced by reason of work executed under this section shall be restored equal to its original condition in a neat and substantial manner.

All cutting of existing materials, as shown and/or noted on the drawings, and as required to complete the work, shall be done in a neat and workmanlike manner.

Plaster and masonry materials, to be removed, shall be well wet during demolition operations to avoid excessive dust and debris, which may cause damage to building contents.

Provide and maintain all required safeguards such as partitions, barricades, signs, lights, etc.

Remove them when work is completed and when authorized to do so by the Project Engineer.

This Contractor shall be responsible to provide, erect and maintain all temporary shoring, scaffolding, etc., required in order to do the demolition work, and to maintain all floors, walls, partitions, ceilings, etc., in a satisfactory, safe condition until new work is in place.

Defective or damaged work or any material damaged before final acceptance shall be satisfactorily replaced at the Contractor's expense in accordance with the requirements of the

02070-3 drawings and specifications.
