SECTION 01 33 00

SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENTS. This section specifies procedural requirements for non-administrative submittals, including shop drawings, product data, samples, and other miscellaneous work-related submittals. These submittals are required to amplify, expand, and coordinate other information contained in the contract. Non-work-related submittals are addressed elsewhere in the contract rather than in the specification and may include items such as: contract progress schedule, permits, payment applications, performance and payment bonds, insurance certificates, and progress reports.

A. Shop Drawings. These are technical drawings and data specially prepared for this project including fabrication and installation drawings, diagrams, and coordination drawings (for use on-site).

B. Product Data. This data includes standard printed information on manufactured products that has not been specially prepared for this project, including manufacturers' product specifications and installation instructions, catalog cuts, standard wiring diagrams, and standard product operating and maintenance manuals.

C. Miscellaneous Submittals. These are work-related, non-administrative submittals that do not fit in the two previous categories, including the following:

1. Maintenance agreements.

2. Survey data and reports.

3. Project photographs.

4. Record drawings (as-built drawings).

5. Field measurement data.

6. Operating and maintenance manuals.

7. Keys and other security protection devices.

8. Maintenance tools and spare parts.

9. Overrun or maintenance stock.

10. Qualification certificates.

1.2 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES

A. Coordination. Coordinate the preparation and processing of submittals with the performance of the work. Coordinate each submittal with other submittals and related activities, such as testing, purchasing, fabricating, and delivering, that require sequential activity.

B. Listing. At the end of this section is a summarized listing of the submittals required for the work. The listing is included for the convenience of users of the contract documents.

C. Transmittal Timing. Prepare and transmit each submittal to the Contracting Officer sufficiently in advance of the scheduled performance of related work

ANZY020052 01 33 00-2

and other applicable activities. Transmit different kinds of submittals for the same unit of work so that processing will not be delayed by the Government's need to review submittals concurrently for coordination.

D. Review Time. Allow sufficient time so that contract performance will not be delayed as a result of the time required to properly process submittals, including time for re-submittals, if necessary. Allow 10 working days for initial Government processing of each submittal. No extension of time will be authorized because of the contractor's failure to transmit submittals to the Government sufficiently in advance of the work.

E. "Approval" Submittals. Submittals requiring approval by the Contracting Officer are so designated in the applicable sections and the submittal list at the end of this section. When brand names or equal are specified, any "equal" submitted will require approval. Any submittal requesting a deviation will require approval. Do not install any equipment or material requiring approval submittals until approvals are received from the Contracting Officer. The Government will status receipt or approval of all submittal requirements in the last two columns.

F. "Information Only" Submittals. Submittals not requiring the Contracting Officer's approval are considered to be "information only" submittals.

1.3 SPECIFIC SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS. Submittal requirements for individual units of work are specified in the applicable specification section. Except as otherwise indicated in the individual sections, comply with the following requirements for each type of submittal.

A. Shop Drawings. Information required on shop drawings includes dimensions, identification of specific products and materials which are included in the work, compliance with specified standards, and notations of coordination requirements with other work. Provide special notations of dimensions that have been established by field measurements. Highlight, encircle, or otherwise indicate deviations from the contract documents on the shop drawings.

B. Product Data. General information required specifically as product data includes manufacturers' standard printed recommendations for application and use, compliance with recognized standards of trade associations and testing agencies, the application of their labels and seals (if any), special notation of dimensions which have been verified by way of field measurement, and special coordination requirements for interfacing the material, product, or system with other work.

C. Miscellaneous Submittals. These submittals include the following:

1. Inspection and test reports.

2. Record drawings.

3. Operating and maintenance data. Furnish 3 bound copies of operating data and maintenance manuals.

ANZY020052 01 33 00-3

4. Materials and tools. Refer to individual sections of the specification for required quantities of spare parts, extra and overrun stock, maintenance tools and devices, keys, and similar physical units to be submitted.

5. Certifications, reports, instructions, and lists.

2. Construct forms to correct shape and dimensions, mortar-tight, braced, and of sufficient strength to maintain shape and position under imposed loads from construction operations.

3. Camber forms where necessary to produce level finished soffits unless otherwise shown on Drawings.

ANZY020052 03 10 00-4

4. Carefully verify horizontal and vertical positions of forms. Correct misaligned or misplaced forms before placing concrete.

5. Complete wedging and bracing before placing concrete.

B. Forms for Smooth Finish Concrete:

2. Use clean and smooth plywood and form liners, uniform in size, and free from surface and edge damage capable of affecting resulting concrete finish.

3. Install form lining with close-fitting square joints between separate sheets without springing into place.

4. Use full size sheets of form lines and plywood wherever possible.

5. Tape joints to prevent protrusions in concrete.

6. Use care in forming and stripping wood forms to protect corners and edges.

7. Level and continue horizontal joints.

8. Keep wood forms wet until stripped.

C. Framing, Studding and Bracing:

1. Space studs at 16 inches on center maximum for boards and 12 inches on center maximum for plywood.

2. Size framing, bracing, centering, and supporting members with sufficient strength to maintain shape and position under imposed loads from construction operations.

3. Construct beam soffits of material minimum of 2 inches thick.

4. Distribute bracing loads over base area on which bracing is erected.

5. When placed on ground, protect against undermining, settlement or accidental impact.

D. Erect formwork, shoring, and bracing to achieve design requirements, in accordance with requirements of ACI 318.

B. Apply prior to placement of reinforcing steel, anchoring devices, and embedded items.

C. Do not apply form release agent where concrete surfaces are indicated to receive special finishes or applied coverings that are affected by agent. Soak inside surfaces of untreated forms with clean water. Keep surfaces coated prior to placement of concrete.

D. Reuse and Coating of Forms: Thoroughly clean forms and reapply form coating before each reuse. For exposed work, do not reuse forms with damaged faces or edges. Apply form coating to forms in accordance with manufacturer’s specifications. Do not coat forms for concrete indicated to receive “scored finish”. Apply form coatings before placing reinforcing steel.
