Verify material substitutions with the COR prior to application and installation.

C. Examination: Examine existing conditions prior to commencing work including elements subject to damage or movement during cutting and patching. Beginning of cutting and patching means acceptance of existing conditions.

D. Preparation: Provide temporary support of work to be cut.

01 30 00 - 7 CMS-1395

E. Performance: Employ skilled workers to perform cutting and patching. In general, use hand or small power tools designed for sawing and grinding, not hammering and chopping. Cut holes and slots as small as possible, neatly to size required, and with minimum disturbance of adjacent surfaces. Temporarily cover openings when not in use.

F. Concrete or Masonry Core Drilling: Cut using a cutting machine, such as an abrasive saw or a diamond-core drill.

I. At penetrations of fire rated walls, partitions, ceiling, or floor , completely seal voids with fire rated material to full thickness of the penetrated element.

J. Restore exposed finishes of patched areas and extend finish restoration into retained adjoining areas in a manner that will eliminate evidence of patching and refinishing.

1. For continuous surfaces, refinish to nearest intersection or natural break.

2. For an assembly, refinish entire unit.

K. Where walls or partitions that are removed, extend one finished area into another, patch and repair floor and wall surfaces in the new space. Provide an even surface of uniform finish, color, texture, and appearance. Remove existing floor and wall coverings and replace with new materials, as necessary, to achieve uniform color and appearance. Where patching occurs in a painted surface, apply primer and intermediate paint coats over the patch and apply final paint coat over entire unbroken surface containing the patch. Provide additional coats until patch blends with adjacent surfaces.

L. Ceilings: Patch, repair, or rehang existing ceilings as necessary to provide an even-plane surface of uniform appearance.

1.13 SELECTIVE DEMOLITION

A. General: Quality assurance: any soiling, staining, breakage or other damage caused by the contractor shall be the sole responsibility of the contractor to clean, repair or replace to original condition all such items at no additional cost to the USCG. Maintain existing utilities indicated to remain in service and protect them against damage during selective demolition operations.

B. Perform demolition in such manner as to eliminate hazards to persons and property; to minimize interference with use of adjacent areas, utilities and structures or interruption of use of such utilities; and to provide free passage to and from such adjacent areas of structures.

01 30 00 - 8 CMS-1395

1. Neatly cut openings and holes plumb, square, and true to dimensions required. Use cutting methods least likely to damage remaining or adjoining areas. Use hand tools or small power tools designed for sawing or grinding, not hammering and chopping, to minimize disturbance of adjacent surfaces.

2. Cut or drill from the exposed or finished side into concealed surfaces to avoid marring existing finished surfaces.

3. Locate selective demolition equipment and remove debris and materials so as not to impose excessive loads on supporting walls, floors, or framing.

4. Where walls or partitions that are demolished extend one finished area into another, patch and repair floor and wall surfaces in the new space.

5. Remove existing floor and wall coverings and replace with new materials, if necessary, to achieve uniform color and appearance.

6. Provide an even surface of uniform finish color, texture, and appearance.

7. Where patching occurs in a painted surface, apply primer and intermediate paint coats over patch and apply final paint coat over entire unbroken surface containing patch. Provide additional coats until patch blends with adjacent surfaces.

8. Provide protection from elements for areas, which may be exposed by uncovering work. Protect existing areas during cutting and patching to prevent damage.

9. Adjoining areas: avoid interference with use of adjoining areas or interruption of free passage to adjoining areas.
