Description

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Walla Walla District intends to issue a construction solicitation for Little Goos Powerhouse and Elevator Penthouse Roof Replacement. This work is located at�Little Goose Lock and Dam, Columbia County, Dayton, Washington.� SCOPE OF WORK: Little Goose Lock and Dam is located on the Lower Snake River. The powerhouse roof has a shallow gabled configuration consisting of a centrally located ridge parallel with the long axis of the powerhouse and a built-in structural slope of �- inch per foot from each side of the ridge to the parapet walls. The roof structure consists of steel wide flange girders spanning the short dimension of the powerhouse and supported on concrete corbels cast integrally with the upstream and downstream concrete walls of the powerhouse. Steel wide flange beams span between the roof girders and 3 inch deep steel decking spans over the beams at a right angle to complete the roof structure. The present powerhouse roof was installed in 1991 as a replacement for an existing built-up asphalt roofing system. The roof has 7 bays consisting of the erection bay and six generator bays. Powerhouse bays are separated by elevated roof contraction joints located directly over the concrete monolith joints of the powerhouse. Each bay has 4 roof drains. The roof of the elevator penthouse consists of a poured in place concrete deck. The deck is cast flat, thus, slope is created in the roofing system by means of tapered insulation. The present roof was installed in 1993 as a replacement for an existing asphalt BUR system. The scope of the work is to provide a durable waterproofing system for the Little Goose powerhouse and ancillary elevator penthouse roofs. This will be achieved by removing the existing roofing system in its entirety down to the structural roof decks, followed by the installation of a new roofing assembly to include gypsum roof sheathing, a vapor retarder, polyisocyanurate foam roof insulation, a top layer of gypsum roof sheathing. The powerhouse roof will be waterproofed with a 90-mil thick ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) single-ply roofing membrane and, because of large amount of roof-mounted equipment, the elevator penthouse will be waterproofed with a fluid-applied PMMA roofing membrane. Additionally, fall protection guardrails will be installed to the parapet walls of the powerhouse and elevator penthouse roofs to ensure a safe work environment for maintenance personnel conducting preventative maintenance activities on the roofs. Both roof locations will require improvement to fall protection by installing new steel guardrails to the powerhouse and elevator penthouse parapets. CONTRACTOR TESTS FOR ASBESTOS: a. Contractor shall test for asbestos containing materials (ACM) in the Powerhouse Roofing system and submit Asbestos Test Results to the Contracting Officer (KO) a minimum of 30 calendar days prior to mobilizing to the Project site.

Anticipate taking samples at 12 locations over a minimum of 2 Powerhouse roof bays. Locations for test samples will be identified by the KO. 3. Approximately 2 inch diameter sample size per sample. Include all roofing layers down to the roofing deck. 4. Patch all sample locations with a Government accepted patching system on the same day samples are taken. CONTRACTOR TESTS FOR RCRA METAL BASED PAINT: a. Contractor shall test for RCRA Metal Based Paint on the interior Powerhouse Roof decking and submit RCRA Metal Based Paint Test Results to the KO.
