SPECIFICATION – SITE DEMOLITION

Protect existing facilities, of the owner, whether to remain in place or be reused, by

temporary covers, shoring, bracing, and/or supports. Repair or replace those items
designated to remain or to be reused that are damaged during performance of the
work. Protect structural elements from being overloading. Provide new supports,
braces, or reinforcement, as required, for existing facilities weakened by demolition
and removal work.

2. Weather Protection

Protect facilities and equipment designated to remain in place from the weather at all
times. Maintain temporary coverings to ensure their effectiveness and to prevent
their displacement.

3. Protective Barriers

Before starting demolition operations, erect protective barriers around trees and
shrubs designated to remain. Barriers shall consist of 4 feet high woven wire fabric
[or other engineer acceptable warning barriers] fencing supported by steel or
wood posts, spaced 6 feet on center (maximum). Erect barriers at or outside of the
tree or shrub drip line. Do not use the areas within protective barriers for traffic,
storage, or any other purpose. Upon completing demolition work, remove and
dispose of protective barriers.

B. Dust Control

1. Existing Buildings

Provide dust proof barricades to prevent the intrusion of dust or inclement weather
into interiors of existing buildings exposed by the work. Construct barricades using
substantially braced framing covered with a suitable polyethylene sheeting material.
Remove and properly dispose of barricades when no longer needed (as determined by
the owner and construction manager).

2. Work Areas

Take appropriate measures to avoid accumulating dust in work areas, so as not to

create a nuisance to surrounding areas.

3. Airborne Contaminants

During demolition work covered by this specification, take appropriate measures to

protect personnel from being injured by airborne contaminants and metal dusts. Such
measures shall comply with the requirements of OSHA Construction Industry
Standards pertaining to airborne contaminants.

4. The use of water will not be permitted when it will result in hazardous or
objectionable conditions such as pollution, flooding, or unsafe areas.
