Notice of intent to solicit directly from suppliers (W9127N26QA035)

The Green Peter Powerhouse in Linn County, Oregon, requires a materials upgrade for its roof guard rail system to comply with DoD and OSHA fall protection regulations. The existing parapet wall on the flat roof is insufficient for safety. The project involves building custom 2-inch Schedule 40 pipe guardrail assemblies, including 18 Panel 1 assemblies, 20 Panel 2 assemblies, 2 West Corner Rail assemblies, 2 East Corner Rail assemblies, and 84 mounting bracket assemblies. All components will be hot-dip galvanized after assembly, as detailed in drawing GPP-9-3-11/2 and CU-16-0025-3-2_REV-1. The estimated cost for these materials is $32,000. Shipping of the guard rails and mounting brackets is to 40386 West Boundary Rd., Lowell, OR 97452, with deliveries accepted Monday through Thursday, 0800-1600, excluding holidays. The government will not cover shipping costs to Lookout Point Dam.

This government file details the specifications for guardrail assemblies, including corner guardrails, guardrail panels, and individual pipe and bracket components, specifically for the Powerhouse Roof at Green Peter Dam & Reservoir. The document outlines material requirements, such as 2-inch Schedule 40 steel pipe for all pipe components, and detailed galvanizing specifications. Key galvanizing requirements include hot-dip galvanizing after assembly, specific vent hole drilling (3/8-inch for top rails and at weld points, or 25% of the pipe's internal diameter), and ensuring all steel parts are free of contaminants before the process. The file provides various scaled diagrams and notes for construction and assembly, emphasizing proper ventilation for optimal galvanizing quality and cost-effectiveness. This document serves as a comprehensive guide for the fabrication and installation of the specified guardrail systems.
