4 PART 2 -PRODUCTS 1. BUILDING SYSTEM MANUFACTURERS Products of the following, meeting these Specifications, may be used on this Project: 1. Shelter Works, St. Louis, MO, CSM, or equivalent. 2. Products from other manufacturers will be considered for substitution 14 days prior to bid. Requests for substitution will not be considered if received 13 or fewer days before bid. Requests for substitution must include the following information in order to be considered: 2. SYSTEM PERFORMANCE Structural Loading: 1. Building: Own dead load. 2. Roof Live Load: 30 psf 3. Wind Load: 90 mph. 4. Seismic Load: Per local building code 3. COMPONENTS a. U-Bolts: Through-wall lifting/tie-down eyes at the top of each comer to facilitate handling. b. Connections: Wall panels shall overlap to form a permanent weather-proof connection with a seamless exterior appearance that uses low-maintenance silicone caulk matching the shelter's exterior color. Internal connections shall use stainless steel hardware spaced no less than 12" on center. c. Exterior: All exterior surfaces shall be brick textured with mils of high quality Polycor 944 isopthalic gel coat, incorporating ultra-violet inhibitors. Exterior color shall be desert tan, polar white, meadow green, or storm grey. d. Interior: All interior surfaces shall be sprayed with mils of Polycor 944 high quality isophthalic white gel coat finish offering the same characteristics as the exterior surfaces without ultraviolet inhibitors e. Base Flange: Shelter shall have a minimum 4 W' interior fiberglass base flange with minimum 2" reveal for mounting to the concrete slab by the installing contractor. Conseal shall be provided for a weather-proof connection between the shelter and base pad. Contractor shall follow shelter manufacturer's installation instructions. Contractor shall provide any required Type 316 stainless steel expansion anchors. f. Doors: 1. Doors shall be made of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) using exclusive FiberWrap technology to eliminate the possibility of delamination during the shelter's entire lifespan. Page4 of5

5 2. Doors shall be hung with stainless steel ball bearing type hinges equipped with tamperresistant, non-removable pins. Hinges shall be oriented with no fasteners exposed when door is closed. 3. Doors shall be sealed with a weather-tight neoprene gasket along the entire perimeter of the door. 4. A rain drip molding shall be located above each door. 5. Two (2) 4'-0" x 4'-0" access panel with 2-point pad-lockable closure system. g. Penetrations: Two bulkheads where the end-user can penetrate wall or ceiling without exposing the core material thereby guaranteeing a weatherproof penetration for the life of the structure. The location of these areas must not be visible from outside the shelter. 4. MATERIALS a. Walls, roof and doors shall be seamless, one-piece panels laminated with 1/8" thick sprayed fiberglass outside surface, core material, and 1/8" thick sprayed fiberglass inside surface. Walls, roof and doors shall have vertical FiberBeam laminations at least every 12" to permanently bond inner FRP surface with outer FRP surface to provide structural integrity and prevent de-lamination of the fiberglass from the core material. b. Walls and roof shall have minimum R -10 insulation with core consisting of minimum 1.5" thick foam. PART 3 -EXECUTION 1. EXAMINATION Investigate site, including soils, to determine effect on proposed building. 2. PREPARATION Install concrete slab true and level to a maximum surface variance of 3/16" where the building interfaces with the slab. The slab immediately surrounding the building perimeter shall be sloped away at a pitch of W' per foot to promote proper drainage and eliminate the potential of standing water around the building. 3. ERECTION a. At the time of installation the slab shall be clean and dry. b. Follow written offloading and installation instructions provided by shelter manufacturer. c. Install and make final electrical connections to all equipment shipped loose with water-tight flexible conduit and fittings. Page 5 of5
