GENERAL STRUCTURAL NOTES

EXISTING CONDITIONS

1.01 AS WITH ANY WORK AFFECTING EXISTING CONSTRUCTION, UNFORESEEN CONDITIONS ARE UNAVOIDABLE WITHOUT DEMOLISHING OTHERWISE SERVICEABLE CONSTRUCTION, DISRUPTING OCCUPIED OPERATIONS AND INCURRING SIGNIFICANT COST FOR CLOSE UP EXAMINATION AND NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING DURING

THE DESIGN STAGE.

1.02 WITH THE PASSAGE OF TIME SINCE THE CREATION OF AS-BUILT DRAWINGS AND/OR THE DESIGNERS SURVEY, BOTH CONCEALED AND VISIBLE CONDITIONS MAY HAVE CHANGED DUE TO ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS, RENOVATIONS AND DETERIORATION.

1.03 PRIOR TO THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY WORK IN PREPARATION OF CONSTRUCTION RELATED ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SHOP DRAWING PREPARATION, ALL BURIED, EMBEDDED, AND CONCEALED ITEMS LIKELY TO BE ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION SHALL BE LOCATED AND MARKED ON THE SURFACE. THIS WORK SHALL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY DESTRUCTIVE AND/OR NON-DESTRUCTIVE MEANS WITHOUT IMPAIRING THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE ASSOCIATED MEMBERS. SHORING AS REQUIRED SHALL BE DESIGNED BY A PROFESSIONAL STRUCTURAL ENGINEER, LICENSED IN THE STATE OF THE

PROJECT, AND FURNISHED AND INSTALLED AT NO ADDITIONAL COST.

1.04 EXISTING CONDITIONS THAT INTERFERE OR OTHERWISE AFFECT THE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION OR SERVICEABILITY OF THE WORK SHALL BE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE COR, INCLUDING PLAN AND SECTION SKETCHES, IMMEDIATELY FOR RESOLUTION. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ALLOW TWO CALENDAR WEEKS IN THE SCHEDULE FOR DESIGN RESOLUTION THE INTERFERENCE AFTER ALL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERFERENCE, INCLUDING SIZE, LOCATION AND FUNCTION OF THE EMBEDMENT, HAS BEEN RECEIVED

BY THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEER.

ANTI-CLIMB FENCE DESIGN

1.01 THE VENDOR SHALL SUPPLY A TOTAL ARCHITECTURAL FENCE SYSTEM INCORPORATING AN ANTI-CLIMB DESIGN THAT INCLUDES ALL COMPONENTS (I.E. BRACKETS, PANELS, POSTS, AND HARDWARE) AS

REQUIRED FOR A COMPLETE INSTALLATION.

1.02 ENGINEERING RESPONSIBILITY: ENGAGE A FABRICATOR WHO ASSUMES UNDIVIDED RESPONSIBILITY FOR ENGINEERING FENCING, AND ALL ASSOCIATED CONNECTIONS TO NEW AND EXISTING STRUCTURE NOT SHOWN IN THESE DRAWINGS BY EMPLOYING A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER TO PREPARE AND

SEAL DESIGN CALCULATIONS, SHOP DRAWINGS, AND OTHER STRUCTURAL DATA.

1.03 HORIZONTAL MEMBERS THAT ARE ACCESSIBLE FROM THE OCCUPIED SIDE OF FENCE AND MIGHT BE USED AS FOOT- OR HAND-HOLDS SHALL EITHER BE SPACED AT A MINIMUM 8 FEET (2400 MM) APART OR DESIGNED

WITH ANTI-CLIMB FEATURES.

1.04 DESIGN FRAMING SYSTEMS TO PROVIDE FOR MOVEMENT OF FRAMING MEMBERS WITHOUT DAMAGE OR OVERSTRESSING, FABRIC FAILURE, CONNECTION FAILURE, UNDUE STRAIN ON FASTENERS AND ANCHORS, OR OTHER DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS WHEN SUBJECT TO BUILDING MOVEMENT, INCLUDING DRIFT AND DEFLECTION, OR THERMAL LOADS CAUSED BY A MAXIMUM AMBIENT TEMPERATURE CHANGE (RANGE) OF

67 DEGREES C (120 DEGREES F).

1.05 ALL SECTIONS AND PIECES OF THE FENCE MATERIAL, RAILS, FRAMING, ETC. WILL BE HOT DIP GALVANIZED.

THE GALVANIZING PROCESS MUST MEET ASTM A123/A123M STANDARDS. GALVANIZING COATING SHALL BE FOLLOWED BY A ZINC PHOSPHATE COAT, AND EPOXY POWDER COAT, AND A POLYESTER COLOR COAT.

SEE ARCHITECTURAL FOR ANY ADDITIONAL FINISH OR COLOR REQUIREMENTS.

1.06 FENCE PANELS WILL BE PROVIDED SO THAT LIMITED FIELD CUTTING AND FIELD FINISH PATCHING WORK IS REQUIRED. SUPPLY ADDITIONAL GALVANIZING MATERIAL FOR TOUCHING UP THE FENCE SYSTEM ON SITE.

ENSURE ALL AREAS AND COMPONENTS OF THE FENCE AND GATES ARE PROPERLY COATED.

1.07 EVERY POST OR OPENING IN THE TOP OF THE FENCE STRUCTURE WILL BE SEALED WITH A UV-STABILIZED

POLYMER POST CAP.

1.08 RAILS SHALL BE CONFIGURED AS TO ALLOW USE AS A RACEWAY FOR COMMUNICATION OR VIDEO

CABLING.

1.09 PROVIDE GUARDS AS REQUIRED TO PREVENT BEAMS, COLUMNS, OR OTHER HORIZONTAL PROJECTIONS

TO BE USED AS STEPS OR HAND-HOLDS.

1.10 BEFORE ANY CONCRETE DRILLING, LOCATE AND AVOID ALL REINFORCING, CONDUIT, OR OTHER ITEMS EMBEDDED IN CONCRETE BY GPR OR OTHER NON-DESTRUCTIVE MEANS AS APPROVED BY THE COR.

POST-INSTALLED ANCHORS

1.01 POST-INSTALLED ANCHORS SHALL ONLY BE USED WHERE SPECIFIED ON THE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL OBTAIN APPROVAL FROM THE COR PRIOR TO INSTALLING POST- INSTALLED ANCHORS IN PLACE OF MISSING OR MISPLACED CAST-IN-PLACE ANCHORS. CARE SHALL BE TAKEN IN PLACING POST-INSTALLED ANCHORS TO AVOID CONFLICTS WITH EXISTING REBAR. HOLES SHALL BE DRILLED AND CLEANED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS.

SUBSTITUTION REQUESTS, FOR PRODUCTS OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED BELOW, SHALL BE SUBMITTED BY THE CONTRACTOR TO THE COR ALONG WITH CALCULATIONS THAT ARE PREPARED & SEALED BY A

REGISTERED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER. THE CALCULATIONS SHALL DEMONSTRATE THAT THE

SUBSTITUTED PRODUCT IS CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING THE PERTINENT EQUIVALENT PERFORMANCE VALUES

(MINIMUM) OF THE SPECIFIED PRODUCT USING THE APPROPRIATE DESIGN PROCEDURE AND/OR

STANDARD(S) AS REQUIRED BY THE BUILDING CODE.
