This is a Technical Specifications document for the City of Daytona Beach, Florida, detailing construction and renovation requirements for the Main Street Pier. The project encompasses demolition of the existing concrete structure and decking, installation of new structural components and decking, replacement of the handrail system, and modifications to plumbing and electrical systems. The contractor must furnish all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, and obtain necessary permits to complete the work. Key requirements include maintaining continuous pedestrian access and restaurant delivery access to the pier during construction, with limited nighttime operations allowed only with City Engineer approval and two weeks' advance written notice. The first phase of construction requires reinforcing existing bracing on the north side of the pier between bents 2 and 4, as detailed in the structural drawings. The contractor must comply with Florida Department of Environmental Protection Coastal Construction Control Line Permit conditions, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Permit No. SAJ-2000-00644, and the Volusia County Habitat Conservation Plan. Construction is prohibited within marine turtle nesting habitat from May 1 through October 31, with no temporary or permanent exterior lighting authorized in nesting areas during this period. A non-mandatory pre-bid conference will be held virtually via Teams, and all bid responses must be submitted online through the City's procurement platform at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/codb. A preconstruction conference must be held with the contractor, owner, and FDEP representatives prior to construction commencement.

The contract utilizes a lump-sum payment structure across ten primary bid items: Mobilization/Demobilization (25 percent paid upon mobilization, 10 percent upon demobilization, remainder prorated throughout project), City Permits, Environmental Compliance, Pedestrian Control/Maintenance of Traffic, Demolition, Structural Improvements and Railing Renovations, Furnish and Install New Deck Boards, Remove and Reinstall Deck Boards, Plumbing Improvements, and Electrical Improvements. All quantities in the bid form are approximate, and the owner reserves the right to increase or decrease quantities during construction. The contractor bears full responsibility for site conditions review, quantity verification, cost estimation, transportation and handling of materials, temporary facilities and utilities, quality control, environmental compliance with water quality standards, debris removal and proper disposal landward of the coastal construction control line, and protection of all public and private property. The contractor must provide shop drawings, as-built drawings, manufacturer data, progress reports, and certificates of compliance, all submitted electronically. Materials must be new unless otherwise specified, stored in compliance with manufacturer instructions, and the contractor guarantees all mechanical and electrical equipment against defects for one year from acceptance date.
