Bay Floor Replacement - Stonewall Jackson Volunteer Fire Department

Work consists of, but is not limited to, the refinishing of an existing Bay Floor at Stonewall Jackson Volunteer Fire Department. 1.The area that shall be worked on is in the Bay areas of the fire station. The area of this work is 4,227 SF of floor and 330 LF of cove base. 2.All ceramic tile shall be removed from the floor and the cove base. 3.The concrete substrate shall be mechanically prepared by using vacuum blast machines and diamond grinders in order to yield clean and sound concrete. Areas that cannot be shot blasted shall be cleaned and abraded with hand grinders. 4.An efficient vapor barrier is required when necessary to prevent moisture vapor transmission through a concrete slab on grade. Wet cure method is recommended versus the use of a chemical curing agent. A light steel trowel finish is recommended to minimize laitance and provide a hard surface. 5.The entire concrete surface must be structurally sound. Any unsound areas must be repaired or replaced before proceeding with the system application. 6.Cracks, saw cuts and holes shall be filled with a thickened epoxy material prior to flooring installation. 7.An Industrial Epoxy Topping is required. This is a versatile mortar surfacing system providing heavy-duty protection at an average 1/2" thick. This system incorporates a 100% solids epoxy with selected aggregates to produce a resin-rich epoxy mortar that is applied by hand or power trowel over a primer. This mortar is then grouted and sealed with the appropriate resins to eliminate porosity and produce a dense finish that resists dirt and chemical penetration.
