THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 051400-6 <br /> <br />3.3 ERECTION <br /> <br />A. Where members can not be properly assembled due to mis-fabrication or deformation <br />due to handling or transportation, report the condition to the University with a proposed <br />method of correction for approval. Erect structure to the lines and grades indicated on <br />the Drawings and in accordance with the Shop Drawings. <br /> <br />B. Do not field cut or alter structural members without approval of the University. <br /> <br />C. Grout base plates with non-shrink grout. Clean concrete bearing surfaces from bond- <br />reducing materials, and roughen if necessary to improve bond to surfaces.] [Grout base <br />plates in accordance with Division 03 Section "Grout". Paint the bottom surface of base <br />plate. Set base plate on wedges or other adjustable devices. After the base plate has <br />been positioned and plumbed, tighten the anchor bolts. Grout solidly between the <br />bearing surfaces to ensure that no voids remain. <br /> <br />D. Where field welding to existing structural members is required, confirm the weldability of <br />the existing aluminum by cutting or drilling samples and having them tested by the <br />Subcontractor's Independent Testing Laboratory. The testing laboratory shall <br />recommend the location for taking samples, provide a report on weldability, recommend <br />the type of electrode, and weld and inspect the final welds. <br /> <br />1. Be responsible for preparing the existing structure for welding and touch-up of <br />the surfaces. <br /> <br />3.4 INSPECTION AND TESTING <br /> <br />A. Inspection and testing will be performed under provisions of Division 01 Section "Special <br />Procedures". The Subcontractor shall be responsible for in-house visual inspection and <br />implementing a quality control program. <br /> <br />B. Notify the University of the fabrication and erection schedules and permit the University's <br />representative to observe shop assembly, make visual inspections, nondestructive tests <br />of welds, observe erection and perform field testing. Correct defective work, rejected by <br />the University at no additional cost to the University. <br /> <br />C. A certified welding inspector employed by the University's Independent Testing <br />Laboratory will verify that welds are made in accordance with approved welding <br />procedures and visually inspect shop and field welding operations as directed by the <br />University. <br /> <br />D. Nondestructive testing of welding to the criteria in AWS chapter 5 by the University's <br />Independent Testing Agency. <br /> <br />1. Perform [visual], [dye penetrant] [ultrasonic] [radiographic] testing of welds in <br />the fabricator's shop. <br /> <br />2. Column flanges in moment frames are to be inspected [6 inches] [152 mm] <br />above and below the point where girder flanges and continuity plates are <br />attached. Any recordable discontinuity causing complete loss of back reflection <br />and which can not be encompassed within the larger of a [3 inch] [76 mm] <br />diameter circle or one half the plate thickness will be cause for rejection.
