The City of Lincoln is seeking a contractor to build the foundation and complete related site work for the Lincoln Fire & Rescue Training Tower in Lincoln, Nebraska. - Government buyer: City of Lincoln Purchasing Department, for Lincoln Fire & Rescue; the solicitation identifies Sharon Mulder, Assistant Purchasing Agent, with the Lincoln Purchasing office. The project is at the Lincoln Fire & Rescue Training Facility. - Main work (one lump-sum scope item each): Mobilization, supervision, temporary controls and layout; earthwork, excavation, dewatering, fill and subgrade preparation; reinforced concrete grade beams and foundation; tower slab and granular base; foundation coordination, layout verification and final survey; concrete paving and site restoration; and testing coordination, contractor-required inspections, closeout documents and cleanup. - Optional unit-price work: Additional excavation and ordinary-soil haul-off (per cubic yard); imported structural fill, placed and compacted (per cubic yard); granular subbase, placed and compacted (per ton); additional reinforced concrete (per cubic yard); additional reinforcing steel, furnished and installed (per pound); and concrete pavement restoration (per square foot). - OEM and specified components: Hilti adhesive anchors, HIT-HY 200 V3 adhesive with HAS-V-36 5/8-inch anchors, 10-inch embedment; item numbers 2198027 and 2334276. Structural calculations also specify W4x13 columns, 600S162-43 floor joists, and W6x15 girders. Quantities are not stated, and the tower anchorage work is excluded from the contractor’s foundation scope. - Notable technical requirements: The specified foundation includes a 23-foot by 42-foot-6-inch grade beam and an exterior stair pad; interior grade beams are not required. No slab is required inside the grade-beam perimeter; the area can remain as-is or be filled with gravel no higher than the finished grade beam. The grade beam must not be below grade and should finish approximately one inch above surrounding grade where the site is relatively flat. Bidders are to assume excavated soil is hauled off-site and include the special one-time-use Bluff Road landfill permit cost. Geotechnical recommendations describe a shallow mat foundation on at least one foot of structural fill, with a maximum net allowable bearing pressure of 1,500 psf; existing soils generally appear suitable for reuse as structural fill. - Scope boundaries: Tower anchorage materials, drilling, epoxy installation and anchor survey are excluded.
