Re: 2011 Parking Ramp Repair Project
Introduction: The Transportation Services Department is interested in funding the 2011
Parking Ramp Repair Project. The Public Hearing for Plans, Specifications, Form of Contract
and Estimate of Cost will be set at the September 6, 2011 City Council Meeting for September
20, 2011.
History/background: As a part of our ongoing facility maintenance we routinely perform
repairs to concrete, caulk joints, expansion joints, etc., in order to maintain the integrity of the
facilities. This project will allow us to repair and seal damaged caulk joints, in three of our
facilities while also completing some minor concrete repairs. We plan to repair'the caulk joints
on the tops of the facilities to prevent water from leaking through the joints to lower levels of the
parking decks.
Discussion of Solution: Our initial intent was to perform repairs to caulk joints and
concrete in- house, however, due to the duration of our LED installation project, we were not
able to perform some the maintenance necessary this season. We would like to contract these
services out through a competitive bidding process and have this work completed in late Fall
and early Spring.
Conclusion: We enlisted the services of VJ Engineering to complete a work detail and
bid documents for the 2011 Ramp Repair Project. They otimated the cost of this project at
J176 000.00 to be funded out of parking operations. This project wi ai extending the life of
the parking facilities and help protect against more costly repairs in the future.

application of membrane curing compound of type specified or as otherwise
approved by the Engineer. Apply in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.

3.8 REPAIR AND PATCHING OF CONCRETE — i D
- ,.
A. Concrete work not in accordance with the specifications, not formed �s shown on
the drawings, out of alignment or level, or showing a defective surface, sfCall be
removed and completely replaced if directed by the Engineer. Slight imperfections
in appearance of the structure may be patched, provided the permission of the
Engineer is obtained prior to patching.
B. Block -outs and areas where patching is required shall be cleaned of all dust, dirt,
grease, laitance and loose or spalling concrete and be given a brush applied coat of
epoxy bonding agent. The compound shall be mixed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. The patching mortar shall be freshly mixed and shall be

concrete, including the admixture, except that the coarse aggregate shall be omitted
and fine aggregate substituted therefor. The placing of mortar shall begin
immediately after the bonding compound is applied and shall be completed within
the manufacturers recommended time.
I
SECTION 03313

The Bonding Compound must be sticky to the touch during placing of mortar. The
patching shall be finished to match adjoining concrete and cured and protected as
specified for concrete.
C. Repair of defective concrete, performance of required patching and/or filling of
holes shall be performed and completed as soon as possible. Exposed concrete shall
be repaired immediately upon stripping of forms.
3.9 SURFACE FINISH
A. Surfaces of all exposed vertical concrete shall be smooth, of uniform color, texture
and appearance. Construction joints shall be true to line.
3.10 FINISH
A. Broom Finish: Trowel exterior horizontal slabs, walks and platforms to a smooth
uniform finish using a steel trowel. After troweling, drag a brush, hair broom, or

3. Provide double layer as required of backer rod for joints Wider thin 2'/a, l
inches.
D. Release Agent
1. Provide release agent or bond - breaker strip in joint to be sealed on top of

1. Examine joint sizes and conditions to establish correct depth -to -width
relationship for installation of back -up materials and sealants.
2. Clean bonding joint surfaces of harmful matter substances including
dust, rust, oil, grease and other matter that may impair work.
3. Do not apply sealants to joint surfaces treated with sealer, curing
compound, water repellent or other coatings, unless tests have been
performed to ensure compatibility of materials. Remove coatings as
required
4. Ensure joint surfaces are dry and fiost -free.
5. Prepare surfaces in accordance with manufacturer's directions.
F. Back -up Material
1. Apply bond breaker tape where required to by manufacturer's
instructions.
2. Install joint filler to achieve correct joint depth and shape.
G. Priming
1. Where necessary to prevent staining, mask adjacent surfaces prior to
priming and sealing.
2. Prime sides of joints in accordance with sealant manufacturer's
instructions immediately prior to seating.
