Reference number: 20016932 Deadline for receipt of complaints 2024-09-23 Electronic tender submission accepted Yes, via SEAO, with a document Expected contract duration without options (in months) 40 The project proposed by McGill University for the New Vic on the site of the Royal Victoria Hospital [RVH] requires the partial deconstruction of pavilion A, i.e. its extension to the north, the demolition of pavilions M, S and T, the restoration and reuse of the heritage portions of pavilions A, E and L, and the construction of a new pavilion N in place of the demolished pavilions, in addition to the new spaces planned under the main courtyard in front of the old hospital. 1. Earth and rock support - Verification of pile drilling work by a qualified technician. Verification of drilling depths, length after levelling and displacements and deviations (horizontal and vertical). 2. Excavation bottom - Verification of soils, rock and infrastructure (clean slab) by a senior engineer/technician to confirm that exposed soils comply with technical specifications and are ready to receive foundation work or granular backfill. 3. Excavation and summary environmental characterization of soils - Sampling and verification of contaminated soils - Chemical analysis of soil samples 4. Earthworks and backfill compactness - Engineer verification of compliance of proposed backfill materials with technical specifications, including backfill (and accessories) for drainage and geothermal works. - Laboratory analysis of granulometric tests, modified proctor tests, certification of aggregate conformity; - On-site verification of backfill materials, backfill work and material compactness; - Verification of sub-slab drainage work and mechanical trenches; - Verification of final granular foundation and installation of materials (insulation and vapour barrier) in preparation for concreting of slabs on grade. 5. Concrete work - Check physical and chemical properties of materials; - Verification of proposed cement concrete mixing formulas; - Verification of accessories and materials incorporated into concrete - Check equipment, methods and cleanliness of reinforcement and formwork; - Checking and measuring concrete's physical properties and sampling concrete cylinders on site (3 cylinders per 50m3 of concrete max. and/or each type of concrete per day) - Control of concrete protection; - Concrete compression and pull-out tests; - Concrete finishing, product and work verification; - Adhesion compliance of concrete screeds bonded to structural slabs. 6.
