A. Use repair materials identical to existing materials. PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.01 EXAMINATION 1. Where identical materials are unavailable or cannot be used for exposed surfaces, use materials that visually match existing adjacent surfaces to the fullest extent possible as approved by Professional A. Verify that utilities have been disconnected and capped, as appropriate, to safety protect occupants and the facilities. B. Survey existing conditions and correlate with requirements indicated to determine extent of selective demolition required. Minimally demolish to match the extent to adequately access for repair or replacement work necessary. C. When unanticipated mechanical, electrical, or structural elements that conflict with the intended function or design are encountered, investigate and measure the nature and extent of the conflict. Promptly submit a written report to the Professional and provide suggested remedial action and cost estimate(s). D. Survey the condition of the building to determine whether removing any element might result in structural deficiency or unplanned collapse of any portion of the structure or adjacent structures during selective demolition. Contact the Professional immediately if an unsafe condition is noted. Protect people first and foremost. 3.02 UTILITY SERVICES A. Maintain existing utilities indicated to remain in service and protect them against damage during selective demolition operations. 3.03 PREPARATION 1.
