Each facility has 2 dining areas, 2 hallways, and a foyer. These buildings are roughly mirror images of each other, and the attached plans (see section 2) should be referenced for all buildings for floor layout/replacement area. These are 1-story dining facilities approximately 10,000 SF with block interior walls with stucco exterior. These buildings dimensions are approx. 125' x 94'-- flooring replacement area being approx. 6,000 square feet (SF). All ground-based utilities (HVAC, Gas Lines, drains, etc.) will be disconnected and reconnected during this project by the Government, however special precautions are required for the exposed connection points. These buildings are furnished with tables, chairs, and kitchen stations that will need to be moved out of the area by the contractor during this project. See section 2 (Technical exhibit 1) for counts on all interior equipment per building; some equipment will require the usage of tools to unsecure the piece(s) from the ground. Demolition: 1. The contractor shall remove all tables, chairs, booths and other equipment (technical exhibit 1) prior to installing new flooring and store in appropriate storage until new work is completed. 2. The contractor shall remove all existing VCT glued flooring (Approx. 6,000 SF), cove base (Approx. 610LF), and any associated adhesive or mastic from the project flooring and wall surfaces. The contractor shall ensure dust containment throughout the project. 3. After removing the existing flooring, the contractor shall prepare the concrete slab to create a smooth, level surface suitable for epoxy flooring, as per manufacturer recommendations. This includes removing all residual adhesive, and moisture testing the concrete slab (moisture reading to be between 75 - 85 % RH, or manufacture recommendations). The concrete slab shall be prepared to meet the epoxy manufacturer's written requirements to qualify for the full material warranty. The surface preparation must achieve a Concrete Surface Profile (CSP) of (min/max) 3-4 (or as required by manufacturer). Diamond grinding is the preferred method, but the final method must be approved by the DPW Representative and must be an approved method by the epoxy manufacturer. New Work: 1. The contractor shall supply and install slip resistant (color: gray) 1/4" Aggregate seamless troweledon epoxy (Quartz) with speckled coated floor (approx. 6,000 SF in each facility). 2. The contractor shall install the epoxy 6 to 8 inches up each wall, meeting the floor where all cove base/trim is removed (approx. 610 LF, see pictures in section 2). 3. The contractor shall replace and install new floor drain covers (approx. 12 per building). Contractor shall verify all sizes, types and dimensions. 4. The contractor shall remove and re-install (if applicable) all thresholds pertaining to project area. 5. After installation, the contractor shall clean the new epoxy with a pH neutral cleaner (PH 6-8) and dry appropriately, according to manufacture specifications. 6. Any deficiencies of the project that are identified during the final inspection must be advised to the DPW representative immediately. 7. The contractor shall place back all tables, chairs, food warmers, water fountains, fans, and any additional furniture in the project area after installing new flooring; ensuring no damage to these items or the new flooring and placing them back in their original location (inventory count located technical exhibit 1). 8. The Contractor shall deliver the dining facility and its equipment free of all construction-related debris and dust. All surfaces must be cleaned and sanitized to a level that permits immediate re-occupancy and operation for food service. Failure to remove all fine dust from equipment and ventilation shall be grounds for rejection of the final walkthrough
