This Statement of Work outlines the requirements for a contractor to provide all necessary parts, labor, tools, transportation, supplies, supervision, equipment, materials, and incidentals for the installation of new shade structures at Bldg. 984, 10604 H Street, Randolph AFB, TX 78150. The project includes demolishing an existing 15' X 60' shade structure, installing two new 15'W X 30'L X 8'H metal structures, and attaching two new shade canopy covers. All demoed materials must be removed and disposed of off-site. The contractor is responsible for site safety, adhering to a strict schedule (7:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday-Friday, excluding federal holidays), coordinating with 502d CE for passes and work access, and protecting government property. The government will conduct inspections for quality assurance, with all discrepancies requiring correction before final payment. The contractor must maintain a clean work site, dispose of waste properly, and provide a one-year warranty on all materials and workmanship, with longer manufacturer warranties filed with the government. Compliance with base fire regulations, environmental laws, and a pre-work site survey for dimensions and conditions are also mandatory.

It details the specific material requirements for structural steel, including ASTM A-500 Grade B and ASTM-A36 compliance for columns, beams, upper structure hoops, and the center hip ridge. Connections must utilize ½” plates, 10” gussets, and specified bolts, nuts, and washers, with columns embedded in reinforced concrete. All steel must be powder or industrially coated for resistance to chemicals, corrosion, and abrasion, meeting UL 1332 standards. Crucially, all field connections must be bolted per ASTM specifications, with no on-site welding permitted.
