Description

Description

The Armory has two barrel-ended facades at its east and west ends, enclosed with stucco arches and wooden window walls. These systems are over 100 years old. This project consists of the west side only. The arch consists of several stucco systems, including those at the face, soffit, piers, and interior areas, which shall be repaired and replaced in-kind as shown. The existing window wall system shall be replaced with a compatible thermally broken aluminum window system that matches the existing historic profiles of the original system. The majority of work must be undertaken from the exterior to minimize impact on interior mezzanine-level MEP systems and scaffolding impacts to adjacent spaces. The scaffolding diagram is proposed to limit work on the existing low capacity perimeter roofs and disruption to new roofing at the west side but is ultimately means and methods by the contractor.

This project includes a Project Labor Agreement that will be executed between the lowest responsible/responsive bidder and the East Central Illinois Building and Construction Trades Council.
