The Contractor is advised that the additional Sub-Sections set forth below are included in the General Conditions
and apply to the Project.

Section 01 10 00 Summary; Add Sub-Section 1.13

Section 1.13 Snug Harbor Cultural Center Contractor Guidelines

A. Introduction to Snug Harbor Cultural Center:


1. The contractor is required to coordinate Building C work schedule with DDC and Snug Harbor
Cultural Center (SHCC). SHCC is a non-profit regional campus for the visual and performing arts –
housed in 28 historic buildings amongst 83 acres of New York City parkland. The center also houses
other non-profit resident organizations such as: The Staten Island Museum, The Staten Island
Children’s Museum, and The John A. Noble Collection, to name a few. The campus contains many
landmark buildings designated by the NYC Landmarks Commission, as well as being designated on
the National Register of Historic Places.
2. SHCC is charged with overall campus management, including coordinating all construction work so as
to minimize conflicts with regular SHCC activities.

B. SHCC Facilities Department is located in Building “P”; open Mon. – Fri. 8:30 am – 5:00 pm. In addition to
DDC, contact SHCC Capital Projects & Planning Manager Alexandra Patrone; cell (973) 464-6413 for
facilities related requests.

C. SHCC Security: Harbor Rangers are responsible for safety and security within SHCC (this does not remove
any security requirements for the project set forth in the bid documents). The Harbor Rangers enforce SHCC
parking regulations and park rules and regulations. The Rangers carry portable radio-telephones for rapid
communications and emergency response. Harbor Rangers Office radio-telephone is (718) 816-9691.

D. NYC Department of Parks & Recreation (NYC DPR) Regulations:


All official NYC DPR specifications pertaining to site and tree protection must be followed. Refer to the
NYC DPR manual known as “Horticulture I.” The manual may be obtained from the S.I. Borough Forestry
Office; the Borough Forestry Director is Arne Isreal.

E. SHCC Construction Guidelines:


1. Prior to Construction Start: Contractors are required to pre-register employees and essential vehicles to
avoid costly delays as a result of no site access. All contractors must contact the Facilities Department
Office no later than one week before work is scheduled to begin, to confirm whether the project will
start as planned, and to pre-register employees and essential vehicles. If access to specific buildings or
areas outside the construction site is required a minimum 24-hour notice is required to SHCC
Facilities to arrange access.

2. Work-Site Vehicle ID Tags: Provide the license plate numbers and descriptions of all work-site
vehicles that need access to staging areas or job-sites. The tags must be displayed prominently in the
vehicle. Designated vehicles must be pre-registered. ID tags must be displayed in the window or
dashboard. Violators will be subject to NYC Parking Violations Bureau Summonses issued by the
security staff.

3. Contractor Identification: Contractors shall wear ID cards at all times while on SHCC grounds during

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Addendum to the General Conditions Page 5 of 22
March 15, 2020
FMS #: PV490-C
Date: 02/24/2020
working hours.

4. Employee Daily Roster: Contractors shall maintain a daily roster of all employees that will be subject
to inspection by SHCC Facilities and/or Security.

F. Contractor Parking
1. Essential Vehicles: Only essential pre-registered vehicles will be allowed to park in specified areas
near the work-site or staging area. This will be determined just prior to the start of the project.
2. Non-Essential (Private) Vehicles: Due to very limited visitor parking, all non-essential vehicles shall
park on the South (park) side of Richmond Terrace, Tysen Street or Fillmore Street, or any other street
outside the park fence. Exceptions: loading and unloading.

G. Construction Traffic: All construction traffic should use the East Gate (Fillmore Street entrance) unless
another gate is designated by SHCC. All vehicles must remain on paved roadways and maintain 10 mph speed
limit. Avoid blocking narrow roadways. To determine the best possible route and delivery time for heavy
machinery or tractor trailer deliveries, notify the Facilities Department or Rangers in advance. Special
precautions should be made to avoid driving on the bluestone walkways on campus.

VIII. SPECIAL EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PROJECT

3.4 GENERAL SHEET METAL INSTALLATION

A. Prior to all metal roofing and flashing installation, inspect the self-adhered membrane
underlayment for holes and tears in the membrane. Provide repair patches and liquid
membrane at edges and at all deficiencies. Extend repair patches a minimum of 6 inch beyond
the tear on all sides and seal the perimeter of the flashing with liquid membrane.

B. Except as called for in this Section, comply with all recommendations of the current edition of
Revere's "Copper and Common Sense" Standards for Details. Completed metal shall be
straight, flat, and without buckles, dents, scratches, or other blemishes.

C. Form sheet metal on a bending brake. Perform shaping, trimming, and hand seaming in the
shop as far as practicable, with the proper sheet-metal working tools. Make the angle of the
bends and the folds for interlocking the metal with full regard for expansion and contraction,
to avoid buckling or other deformation in service. All lines and arisses shall be straight and
crisp except where thickness of metal dictates radius bend, and all exposed edges shall be
hemmed 1/2-inch minimum.

D. Immediately prior to soldering, mechanically clean all metal to be soldered with steel wool or
by other acceptable means, apply flux, and pre-tin Clean metal again if it is not soldered on the
same work day. Perform all soldering slowly with well heated 3 lb coppers irons, and 10 lb.
copper irons for gutters, with properly tinned clean blunt tips. Do not use torches. Apply
enough heat to sweat the solder completely through the full width of the seam. Close clinch
lock seams gently with a block of wood and mallet, then flux and show at least one full inch of
continuous and evenly flowed solder. Whenever possible, do all soldering in flat position. All
sloped and vertical seams shall be laced and soldered a second time. Wipe and wash clean
soldered joints to remove all traces of acid from the flux immediately after the joints are made.

E. Arrange work sequence to avoid use of newly completed roofing for storage, walking surface,
and equipment movement. Protect work from mechanical damage. Notify the Commissioner
immediately if anyone abuses or damages roofing or flashing components.

F. Arrange panel layouts properly to ensure all panel penetrations are in the middle of panels.
Penetrations at seams in the metal panels are prohibited.

3.5 DECK BOARD INSTALLATION

A. Install deck board with 1/8-inch gap at panel joints.

B. Fasten deck board to substrate at required fastener spacing.

Spacing in Field or Roof: 5 inch o.c. with minimum 1-1/4-inch embedment into the

3.6 SELF-ADHERED MEMBRANE UNDERLAYMENT INSTALLATION

A. Apply the self-adhering membrane underlayment and all ancillary products in compliance with
the manufacturer’s printed instructions and these Specifications, whichever is more stringent.

B. Prime all surfaces to receive self-adhering membrane underlayment. Apply primer only to the
area to be covered by membrane underlayment that workday. Apply the primer with a roller
or brush at the rate recommended by the manufacturer; do not spray the primer. Allow the
primer to dry until tack free or as recommended by the manufacturer.

C. Install self-adhering membrane underlayment at all “field” of roof, eaves, and at all metal
flashing as described herein and as indicated on the Drawings.

Apply over primed substrates. Begin application of sheets at eaves and work upslope
with the membrane sheets oriented horizontally; overlap the sheets a minimum of 6
inch at the ends and a minimum of 3-1/2 inch at all side laps. At valleys, provide 6-
inch minimum end lap between all sheets.

Apply sheets in longest lengths practical; shingle side laps and step end laps so they do
not “buck” water. “Reverse laps” in the membrane are not allowed and will be rejected.
Roll out the sheets on primed surfaces and align. Re-roll one half of the sheet in its
long direction and cut the release paper, taking care not to cut the membrane.

Roll the membrane underlayment onto the primed surface while pulling the release
paper in front of the roll such that once the release tape is removed, the membrane
underlayment is immediately adhered to the primed surface. Immediately after
applying the self-adhered membrane underlayment to the primed surface, hand press
it into contact with the surface and roll the entire sheet toward the lap seams with a
handheld neoprene roller. Remove air pockets and patch as described above. Create
a uniform and complete bond.

Place sheets without fishmouths and wrinkles. If fishmouths and wrinkles occur,
cutout and flatten the affected area. Cover the area with a self-adhered membrane
underlayment patch extending a minimum of 6 inch beyond the cutout on all sides.
Seal around the full perimeter of the patch with liquid membrane.

D. Install self-adhering membrane underlayment flashings as described herein and as indicated on


the Drawings.

Round or chamfer all outside corners; ensure that corners are smooth and free of sharp
protrusions. At inside corners, trowel apply a 3/4-inch fillet of liquid-applied
membrane into corners and allow to cure.

At all inside and outside corners, provide a 12-inch-wide reinforcing strip of the
membrane centered over the transition. Form smooth transitions. Do not bridge the
membrane at inside corners.

c. Along entire length of the base of rising walls or curbs within 3 ft. of eaves,
valleys, or transitions with low-slope roofing.

d. Seal all exposed laps and ends of membrane at temporary tie-ins each day with
mastic and remove mastic before continuing flashing installation.

Lap the self-adhering membrane underlayment over eave edge metal and under rake
edge metal. At rake edge metal, install an additional 12-inch-wide strip of self-
adhering membrane underlayment over the edge metal, extending onto the self-
adhering membrane underlayment on the field of the roof.

At roof gutter transitions, provide a starter strip of underlayment adhered to the


substrate as described above, to be installed below the sheet metal flashing. After metal
flashing is installed, proceed with general underlayment installation. Provide 6-inch
minimum overlap between starter strip and underlayment sheet upslope of the metal
flashing.

E. Pipe Penetrations

Install prefabricated copper pipe boot concurrent with roofing underlayment


installation.

Prior to installing pipe boot, install underlayment over pipe penetration. Neatly trim
underlayment to fit closely around pipe penetration, and seal membrane edge to pipe
shaft with liquid membrane.
