FISC Norfolk intends to purchase the following item(s) utilizing the Test Program for Certain Commercial Items in FAR 13.5. Line items are for marine flooring as requested by the USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70). Description as follows: CLIN 0001: Polished Porcelain Tile. Contractors shall provide pricing for the following qualified product: Crossville 'Polished' porcelain tile category: (1) regular field tile 2100 SF, size 12 inch x 12 inch, five sixteenths inch thick, style Cognac VS78; (2) Border tiles 1000 SF, size 12inch x 12inch, five sixteenth inch thick, style Elba Night VS79. Contractor shall provide and install polished porcelain tile deck covering. No QPL or Mil-Spec currently exists for these materials. All products must meet the requirements of commercial standard A137.1. A copy of this standard can be obtained from: Tile Council of America, Inc., 100 Clemson Research Blvd., Anderson, SC 29625, phone: 864-646-8453, fax:864-646-2821, URL: http:/www.tileusa.com. Contractor shall remove existing deck covering down to bare metal surface. Prepare and prime deck surface in accordance with NSTM Section 631. Install an underlayment, adhesive and grout that is epoxy based. The cement based underlayment products available will not hold up under forklift traffic. The compressive strength is not high enough, and the underlayment has been seen to crumble, leading to failures and breakage of the porcelain tiles. Additionally, the underlayment may not fully cure in the center of the non-permeable tiles. Therefore, contractor shall provide ultra-lightweight underlayment (<1.0 lb/sf @ 1/4") that meets QPL-3135, Type II, Class 2, and that the adhesive and grout are also epoxy based. Install approved underlayment to level surface and cover any raised areas across the surface area. Install new porcelain tiles throughout entire areas specified iaw best commercial standards for this type of product and the fact that it is being installed on board a U.S. Navy ship. Contractor shall understand how critical this deck leveling stage is to the overall success of the installation. An non-leveled surface could result in deck failure and be reason for contract default for latent defect and or non-conformance to the specifications herein. Recommend using a 3/8 notched trowel and contractor shall back butter the tile 100% for a nice level setting bed when installing border and field tiles. Ship's representative shall choose final design. Remove Existing Decking. Install Porcelain Tile. Work to be accomplished: SQ FT LOCATION PORCELAIN TILE 3100 CPO MESS TOTAL 3100 SQ FT Note: The list of spaces provided shall be considered an estimate only. Actual space identification shall be established and agreed upon at a pre-work planning conference(s) between contractor and the ship?s designated representative. The total surface area to be covered does NOT include ?underlayment? + ?porcelain tile?. This approach would result in half of the total surface area provided being covered. The total surface area covered after installation shall include both underlayment and porcelain tile so that final project completion shall result in 3100 SF of polished porcelain tile installed. Offerors shall quote a firm fixed price for labor, materials, and installation for removal and installation of 3100 SF. Contractor shall maintain an approved log tracking system established by the contractor and certified by the ship?s designated representative (identified at pre-work planning conference) and shall serve to verify the scope of work completed, in this case 3100 SF.
