PURPOSE: The Nashville District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers intends to issue a Request for Quote for structural fabrication of hydraulic steel structures called stoplogs, which are stackable welded truss structures used to create a temporary damming surface across the lock chamber. The RFQ is planned to include fabrication of up to 6 stoplogs (Base – 4 stoplogs, Option 1 – 1 stoplog, Option 2 – 1 stoplog), each approximately 110’ long and weighing approximately 80,000 pounds. After fabrication, the structures are required to be blasted to white metal (SSPC SP 5) and painted with the 3-A-Z vinyl paint system. Provision of one Chain Sling Assembly per stoplog is planned. The Chain Sling Assemblies are planned to be used to pick up and place the stoplogs. A prefabricated bridge is included as Option 3 in this contract. The bridge is planned to span the lock chamber directly upstream of where the stoplogs will be set to allow a forklift to cross the upstream end of the lock chamber. The items are to be delivered and unloaded at Cheatham Lock located in Ashland City, TN. This is a Pre-solicitation Notice. This Notice is being issued for planning and informational purposes only.
