About this file
This is a detailed specifications document for structural repairs to the historic Hiram King House at the Cradle of Forestry in America in Pisgah Forest, NC. The scope includes crawl space structural repairs, front porch structural repairs, floor joist repairs/reinforcement, wall structural framing repairs, non-structural interior wall repairs, and chimney/stone masonry restoration.
The project requires specialized historic preservation procedures, including careful documentation and protection of existing materials, proper cleaning methods, and use of period-appropriate repair materials and techniques. Key requirements include installation of stainless steel rigid chimney liners, restoration of stone masonry and mortar joints, selective demolition and reinstallation of chimney cap stones, and installation of spark arrestors. The contractor must complete all work within 120 days of Notice to Proceed and employ craftsmen skilled in historic restoration. All submittals require COR approval, including the stone mason's pre-qualification demonstrating experience with historic buildings. The specifications detail requirements for project management, construction progress documentation, waste management, temporary facilities, and closeout procedures. Regular progress meetings are required every two weeks, and extensive photographic documentation must be maintained throughout the project.
