Proposal for Engineering Services <br />Orange County Whitted Building Roof Replacement - Design <br />Prepared for Orange County Asset Management Services <br />Prepared by Atlas Engineering - Project No.: J2581 <br />October 18, 2021 - Page 2 <br /> <br />Atlas Engineering has been requested to submit a proposal for providing design services for the <br />replacement of the identified roof area(s). <br /> <br />Proposed Scope of Services <br /> <br />The following is our proposed scope of services for design phase: <br /> <br />Roof Replacement Design: <br />1. Review available original and building addition construction documents, technical reports, <br />maintenance records, and repair history as provided by the Owner. Review of maintenance <br />records and repair history can be accomplished during a meeting with specific building <br />personnel during fieldwork. <br /> <br />2. Schematic Design Phase (Fieldwork): Perform design fieldwork to confirm existing roof <br />system and roof structural system conditions and obtain necessary information for evaluation <br />and design of the new replacement roof systems, site staging and construction access, and other <br />associated work scope. <br /> As a part of this fieldwork, we will make test cuts of the roofs at selected locations to <br />confirm the existing construction. Test cut/sample locations will be repaired using <br />industry standard methods and compatible materials. Repair of test cuts should be <br />considered temporary. If the roof system will remain in service for longer than 9 <br />months without replacement, permanent repairs by the Owner’s maintenance <br />contractor/staff may be recommended. <br /> Located desired locations for new roof hatches and ladders and perform structural <br />evaluation of the existing conditions in that area. <br /> The age and construction of the roofing system will be discussed with a Certified <br />Asbestos Inspector and sampling and testing of the roofing materials for asbestos will <br />be performed under their direction. <br /> <br />3. Design Development Phase (25% Construction Documents): Have a virtual meeting (Zoom, <br />Google Meet, etc.) with the Owner’s representative(s) following fieldwork completion to <br />discuss on-site observations and to recommend roof system scope, options, and bid alternates <br />to maximize the use of County available budget. <br /> At this time Atlas would review and confirm special site and building conditions <br />requiring coordination in the project documents (limits on working hours, interior <br />sensitivity, interior use schedules, staging and storage, safety requirements etc.). <br /> The Owner’s preferred front-end documents, contract documents, available <br />construction budget, and other administrative requirements/preferences will also be <br />discussed. <br /> Atlas will provide a cost estimate for the project based on field observations and <br />anticipated project scope for review by the County and to determine if any budget <br />actions may be required. <br /> At this phase, Atlas will utilize aerial photos, field sketches, field photos, roof plans, <br />and a specifications table of contents to communicate project scope with the Owner. <br />Complete drawings and specifications will not be submitted at this phase, however, <br />meeting minutes to document items discussed and selections made will be provided by <br />Atlas Engineering for the project record. The replacement roof system(s) and bid <br />alternates, as applicable, must be agreed upon by Atlas and the Owner prior to <br />development of the Construction Documents. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 275A4188-3716-456C-A7AB-96D25F6DCD00
