d. Hurricane: Wind speed 74 miles per hour or more (64 knots).

1.1.2 Weather Warnings

Weather warnings are issued for expected wind velocities. The following are international terminologies issued for weather warnings:

a. Gale warnings: Issued for expected wind velocity of 39-54 miles per hour (34-47 knots).

b. Storm warnings: Issued for expected wind velocity of 55-73 miles per hour (48-63 knots).

c. Hurricane watch: Issued for hurricane conditions within 36 hours.

d. Hurricane warning: Issued for sustained winds of 74 miles per hour (64 knots) expected in 24 hours or less.

1.1.3 Wind Velocities

Wind velocities for tropical cyclones and weather warnings are measurements taken 32 feet 10 inches above ground level.

1.3 DELIVERY, STORAGE, AND HANDLING

A. Store products in manufacturer's unopened packaging container with identification labels intact until ready for installation.

B. Protect materials from exposure to moisture.

C. Store materials in a dry, warm, ventilated, weather-tight location. If outdoor storage is required, block materials to store at an incline, to prevent pooling of any moisture and pro-mote runoff.

D. Store materials so that no damage occurs to gaskets and attached hardware.

E. Use caution when unloading and handling product to avoid bending, denting, crushing, or other damage to the product.

F. When using forklifts, use forks of proper length to fully support product being moved. Consult shop drawings or consult with factory for proper lift points.

1.4 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

A. Design watertight panels to perform under load criteria as set forth is standards based on UFC 3-201-01 Table 2-1 . All water pressure loads and operating loads are transferred to the building structure.

B. Standard loading: Standard Flood Panels are designed for loads that could be anticipated during a 100-year storm event .

1.5 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. Manufacturer Qualifications: Manufacturer must demonstrate previous successful experience in design and manufacture of similar flood-related closures. Upon request, provide supporting evidence including list of installations, descriptions, name, and method of contact.

B. Welder Qualifications: Welders certified in accordance with American Welding Society Procedures: AWS-1-GMAW-S, WPS No.

B2.004.90 for applicable material used in production of specified product.

1.6 PROJECT CONDITIONS

Maintain environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, and ventilation) within limits recommended by manufacturer for optimum results. Do not install products under environmental conditions outside manufacturer's absolute limits.

1.7 COORDINATION

Coordinate work with other trades, operations, and installation of adjacent materials to avoid damage.

1.8 WARRANTY

Watertight closure shall operate satisfactorily and be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of not less than one year from the date of delivery.
