Reference UFC 3-201-01, Civil Engineering, Section 2-4.2-SURVEYING for survey requirements.

2.7 SITE LAYOUT

Locate the proposed improvements as indicated on the attached Conceptual Site Plan. Amend the site layout as determined by the site-specific constraints, the owner’s preferences, accessibility, future expansion, and opportunities that are identified and evaluated as part of the Contractor’s scope of work.

The Contractor is responsible for all aspects of the project whether they are shown on the conceptual plan or not.

2.8 DEMOLITION

Remove existing structures, utilities, pavement, vegetation, and any other features to construct the proposed improvements. Provide straight, neat sawcuts at limits of pavement removal. All contaminated soils discovered require special testing and disposal per Host Nation requirements.

2.8.1 CONSTRUCTION LIMITS

Do not disturb the project site beyond necessary for installation of proposed construction. Do not disturb any areas past the site’s property line. Show demolition work and limits of disturbance in the drawings. Stake-out the limits of disturbance on-site with temporary fencing before beginning construction.

2.8.2 ITEMS TO REMAIN IN PLACE WITHIN CONSTRUCTION LIMITS

Take necessary precautions to avoid damage to existing items to remain in place, to be reused, or to remain the property of the Government. Repair or replace damaged items as required by the KO. Construct and maintain shoring, bracing, and supports as required. Ensure that structural elements are not overloaded. Provide new supports and reinforcement for existing construction weakened by demolition, deconstruction, or removal work. Repairs, reinforcement, or structural replacement require approval by the KO prior to performing said work.

2.8.3 TREES

Protect trees which might be damaged during construction, with a 1.8 meter high fence around the dripline of the tree(s), which is assumed to be the extent of the tree’s roots. Trees are defined as larger than 150mm diameter at 1.3 meters above existing grade. Mitigate for tree removal per Host Nation requirements.

2.8.4 UTILITIES

Any existing utilities encountered that are impacted by this project must be protected, or relocated if protection is not feasible. Remove existing and abandoned utilities under or within 3.0 m of the foundation of any proposed facility or building foundation. Reroute existing utilities to remain in accordance with SOW Section 2.10-UTILITIES. Abandoned utilities must be removed up to the utility main (or next utility main junction) and capped. Manholes or underground structures to be abandoned must be removed to a minimum depth of 50 centimeters below finish grade. Fill abandoned manhole or structure per Section 2.9-EARTHWORK requirements.

2.8.5 DUST, DEBRIS, AND EROSION CONTROL
