PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

As defined in the Scope of Work, dated January 4, 2020, the work shall include, but not be limited to, design-build services for the Granite Façade Repairs of the NW, NE, and SE corners of the Robert C. Weaver (HUD) federal building.

This project is referred to as Phase 2. The project includes repairs to the remaining three granite façades of the Robert C. Weaver building including: Removing all stone panels and resetting them with a new anchoring system; structural and architectural concrete repairs;

complete repointing and re-sealing of the facade; miscellaneous granite panels crack repairs; kerf repairs; cleaning of the granite façade; installation of tie off anchors at each stair tower; repairs to the stair roof and flashing associated with the work as well as the use of scaffold and pedestrian protection and shoring on three corners.

Due to site limitations the stone panels will need to be transported off site to a secure facility until they can be repaired prior to being reinstalled on the building. To minimize disruption to the department of Housing and Urban Development and to work within site constraints, it is preferred that the work proceeds one corner at a time, although the contractor will be allowed to start erection of scaffold ahead of time to allow for a continuous work flow for the specialists attaching and removing the stone panels..
