5.8 INDOOR ICE RINK FACILITY ENVELOPE RENOVATION On 2019.01.25, a section of masonry veneer collapsed on the north-facing wall of the Université Sainte-Anne ice rink facility exterior envelope. See image below.

Figure 3: Masonry Veneer Failure

Page 11: RFQ – ICE RINK ENVELOPE · Point campus. Unless noted otherwise, the university’s indoor ice rink facility shall hereinafter be referenced “the building”. Unless noted otherwise,

RFQ – USA062019 Revision 1 www.usainteanne.ca 11

Head Office : 1695, Highway 1 Tel. : 902-769-2114 Church Point (N.S.) Fax. : 902-769-3831 B0W 1M0

The masonry veneer and the insulation past the veneer has been removed on the north-facing wall and a new envelope is to be installed. The exposed wall arrangement is steel galvanized sheets, 26 gauge, with a 1.375” valley, 9” on center. Our wish is for the supply and installation of a new building envelope system consisting of energy efficient spray foam insulation and galvanized painted steel panels.

Please note that we request pricing for two separate options:

1. Supply and installation of a new building envelope system on the North and East facing exterior walls;

2. Supply and installation of a new building envelope system on all exterior walls.

The two options shown above are to be priced separately for the evaluation of the university. The university can choose to proceed with either option at their discretion. The removal of the masonry veneer from the remainder of the building is the responsibility of others. There may be some metal cladding on the south-facing and west-facing walls that will require removal prior to proceeding with this project and this cost is to be included in option #2. There’s no masonry veneer on these walls.

The following sections of this document will describe the requirements of this project in detail.

5.8.1 Z CHANNEL PURLINS In order to fasten the new building envelope system and provide a suitable standoff depth for insulation application to the existing building structure, galvanised steel Z channel purlins are to be fastened to the exterior envelope. The steel Z channel arrangement including locations, sizes, and spacing is to comply with the fastening requirements of the metal panels described in section 5.8.3 and the depth required for spray foam application described in section 5.8.2.

The purlin arrangement is to comply with all applicable codes and standards. The contractor may suggest a different purlin arrangement from the one noted above given that it’s performance is equal or greater. The purlin fastening arrangement is to comply with all applicable codes and standards and must be approved by the university.

5.8.2 SPRAY FOAM INSULATION Medium-density closed cell spray foam (ccSPF), acting both as a vapour barrier and air barrier, is to be applied to the building envelope to increase the thermal efficiency of the building. The locations and arrangements of the spray foam application is to be confirmed and approved by the university. All arrangements are to comply with applicable codes, standards and municipal requirements. The foam is to be applied after the installation of the purlins described in section 5.8.1. Adequate protection is to be applied to adjacent structures (purlins) to prevent overspray from creating interference with the installation of the metal panels and trim described in section 5.8.3.

As required by the Canadian Building Code, the most relevant version of the CAN/ULC S705 standard must be followed for the application of the spray foam. The resulting R-value of the insulation is to comply with all applicable codes and/or municipal requirements. Requests for special concessions with regards to the insulation thickness could be brought to the attention of the municipal Building and Development Services

department having jurisdiction, given the age of the building and the relatively poor performance of the existing ice surface.

5.8.3 METAL PANELS AND TRIM A new prefinished metal envelope cladding system complete with all metal flashings and trims is to be installed over the insulation noted in section 5.8.2. Steel panels are to have a galvanized (zinc) or Galvalume (or equal) coating, steel thickness to be 26 gauge minimum with structural quality conforming to ASTM A653M or equal. Colour is to be selected by the university from standard colour selection; color to match pre-existing colors on adjacent buildings (brown). All panels are to have a uniform color and match adjacent panels to the university’s approval. The Canadian Sheet Steel Building Institute (CSSBI 20M-2016) Standard for Sheet Steel Cladding for Industrial, Commercial and Institutional Building Applications is to be followed for metal sheeting performance requirements.

The prefinished metal is to be adequately protected during fabrication, transportation, site storage and erection in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. Products are to be installed in accordance with their manufacturer’s instructions and best practices and/or the Metal Construction Association (MCA) Metal Roof Installation Manual (2014). Manufacturer’s minimum bend radius’ must be respected. The cladding system is to comply with all applicable building codes and regulations. All panel coating(s), thickness(es) and arrangements are be approved by the university. Metal cladding system manufacturer’s details are to be provided to the university for reference.

5.8.4 EMERGENCY EXIT DOORS Two (2) existing single steel doors (emergency exits) located in the north-facing and south-facing walls must be replaced with new doors. The doors must be installed complete with new steel door frames, hinges, panic (exit) devices, and closures. New doors must have the same swing and handing as the original doors, dimensions are to remain approximately the same and comply with applicable codes and standards. The steel frames are to be three (3) piece, level 2 frame standard as per ANSI/SDI A250.8-2014, complete with galvanised coating.

The exit devices are to be supplied and installed on the doors. See Figure 4: Exit Device, below, for an example of the desired exit device. Exit devices are to be heavy duty grade 1, ADA compliant and suitable for an outdoor corrosive environment. The door is not meant to be an entrance door and as a result the exterior of the door is to be flush and not equipped with any pull handles.
