About this file
This document is a solicitation for the Rough River Dam Safety Modification Phase II: New Outlet Works and Cutoff Wall Project. The proposed work involves constructing a new outlet works and excavating and placing a cutoff wall at the Rough River Dam. The contract will be a Firm Fixed Price contract awarded based on best value tradeoff. It is a full and open procurement that requires a HubZone 10% price evaluation and a subcontracting plan from large businesses. The project specifications include extensive geological and geotechnical data to enable offerors to understand the site conditions. The anticipated solicitation release dates are mid-September for a draft and late November for the final. The contract will be administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District.

PART 2 PRODUCTS
2.1 AIR BARRIER
Provide air barrier system of compatible parts from one or several manufacturers coordinated by the contractor or provide a single warranted system provided by a primary manufacturer. The air barrier system as part of a tested exterior wall assembly must meet the conditions of acceptance as tested in accordance with NFPA 285. Materials used for roof assembly air barrier must conform to the appropriate UL and FM wind and fire requirements for the specified roof assemblies.
If a complete air barrier system from a single manufacturer is utilized, weather warranted on not warranted, the air barrier system must conform to

All materials used must be identifiable through manufacturer testing data and/or literature to be compatible with all the attached or adjoining materials or substrates used in the system.
Provide Air Barrier System Shop Drawings, Material Samples for Air Barrier System and Air Barrier System Product Data.
PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 QUALITY CONTROL
3.1.1 Documentation and Reporting
Document the entire installation process on daily job site reports. These reports include information on the Installer, substrates, substrate preparation, products used, ambient and substrate temperature, the location of the air barrier installation, the results of the quality control procedures, and testing results.
3.1.2 Quality Control Testing And Inspection
Conduct the following tests and inspections as applicable in the presence of the Contracting Officer during installation of the air barrier system, and submit quality control reports as indicated below.
a. Provide a Daily Report of Observations with a copy to the Contracting Officer.
SECTION 07 27 10.00 10 Page 6
b. Inspect to assure continuity of the air barrier system throughout the building enclosure and that all gaps are covered, the covering is structurally sound, and all penetrations are sealed allowing for no infiltration or exfiltration through the air barrier system.
c. Inspect to assure structural support of the air barrier system to withstand design air pressures.
d. Inspect to assure masonry surfaces receiving air barrier materials are smooth, clean, and free of cavities, protrusions and mortar droppings, with mortar joints struck flush or as required by the manufacturer of the air barrier material.
e. Inspect and test to assure site conditions for application temperature, and dryness of substrates are within guidelines.
f. Inspect to assure substrate surfaces are properly primed if applicable and in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Priming must extend at least 2 inches beyond the air barrier material to make it obvious that the primer was applied to the substrate before the air barrier material.
g. Inspect to assure laps in materials are at least a 2-inch minimum, shingled in the correct direction or mastic applied in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, and with no fishmouths.
h. Inspect to assure that a roller has been used to enhance adhesion.
Identify any defects such as fishmouths, wrinkles, areas of lost adhesion, and improper curing. Note the intended remedy for the deficiencies.
i. Measure application thickness of liquid applied materials to assure that manufacturer's specifications for the specific substrate are met.
j. Inspect to assure that the correct materials are installed for compatibility.
k. Inspect to assure proper transitions for change in direction and structural support at gaps.
l. Inspect to assure proper connection between assemblies (membrane and sealants) for cleaning, preparation and priming of surfaces, structural support, integrity and continuity of seal.
m. Perform adhesion tests for fluid-applied and self-adhered air barrier membranes to assure that the manufacturer's specified adhesion strength properties are met. Determine the bond strength of coatings to substrate in accordance with ASTM D4541.
n. Provide cohesion tests for spray polyurethane foam (SPF). Perform adhesion tests as follows: Using a coring tool remove a sample and determine the relative adhesion quality of the foam. If the foam is hard to remove and leaves small bits of foam on the substrate it is called cohesive foam failure and is considered the best adhesion. If the foam comes away from the substrate with some force but is clean, it is called a mechanical bond. If it comes away easily from the substrate, the adhesion is poor. Cohesive foam failure and a good mechanical bond are acceptable.
SECTION 07 27 10.00 10 Page 7
o. Provide written test reports of all tests performed.
3.2 REPAIR AND PROTECTION
Upon completion of inspection, sample removal and similar services, repair damaged construction and restore substrates, coatings and finishes.
Protect construction exposed by or for quality control service activities, and protect repaired construction.

PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLATION
3.1.1 Metal Roofing
3.1.1.1 Standing-seam Method
Make standing seams parallel with slope of roof. Fabricate sheets into long lengths at shop by locking short dimensions together and thoroughly soldering joints thus formed. In applying metal, turn up one edge of course at each side seam at right angles 1.5 inch. Then install 2 by 3 inch cleats spaced 12 inches apart by fastening one end of each cleat to roof with two one inch long nails and folding roof end back over nail heads.
Turn end adjoining turned-up side seam up over upstanding edge of course.
Turn up adjoining edge of next course 1.75 inches and abutting upstanding edges locked, turned over, and flattened against one side of standing seam. Make standing seams straight, rounded neatly at the top edges, and stand about one inch above roof deck. All sheets must be same length, except as required to complete run or maintain pattern. Locate transverse joints of each panel half way between joints in adjacent sheets. Align joints of alternate sheets horizontally to produce uniform pattern, as shown in SMACNA 1793.
3.1.2 Workmanship
Make lines and angles sharp and true. Free exposed surfaces from visible wave, warp, buckle, and tool marks. Fold back exposed edges neatly to form a 1/2 inch hem on the concealed side. Make sheet metal exposed to the weather watertight with provisions for expansion and contraction.
