BUILDER/CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITIES
<br />FIRE CODE COMPLIANCE
<br />VP BUILDINGS CERTIFICATIONS
<br />4.
<br />VP Buildings follows the guidelines as outlined in the AISC and MBMA Codes of Standard Practice. VP
<br />Buildings standard product specifications, design, fabrication, quality criteria shall govern all work unless
<br />stipulated otherwise in the contract documents. In case of discrepancies between VP Buildings structural plans
<br />and plans for other trades, VP Building structural plans shall govern.
<br />It is the responsibility of the Builder to obtain approvals and permits from all governing agencies and
<br />jurisdictions as required. Approval of VP Building drawings constitutes the builders acceptance of VP
<br />interpretation of the contract purchase order. Unless specific design criteria concerning interface design and
<br />details are furnished as part of the contract, VP Buildings design assumptions shall govern.
<br />VP engineers are not Project Engineers or Engineer of Record for the overall project. VP engineering supply
<br />sealed engineering design data and drawings for VP supplied material as part of the overall project for use by
<br />others to obtain permits, approvals, and coordinate with other trades. The Builder or A/E firm are responsible
<br />for the overall project coordination, including coordination wiLh appropriate inspection and testing agencies. All
<br />interface and/or compatibility of any materials not furnished by VP are to be considered and coordinated by
<br />the builder or A/E firm.
<br />CONSTRUCTION & ERECTION RESPONSIBILITY
<br />The Builder is responsible for construction in strict accordance with VP Buildings "FOR CONSTRUCTIONi"
<br />drawings and all applicable product installation guides. VP is not responsible for work done from any other VP
<br />drawings that are not marked "FOR CONSTRUCTION", nor any drawings prepared by others.
<br />As erected field assemblies of members shall be as specified in 2006 MBMA Metal Building Systems Manual Sec. 6
<br />(in Canada - CSA S16-01 Clause 29.7), which generally require L/500 tolerance of assembled members.*
<br />*For buildings with top riding bridge cranes see Crane Data drawing for column plumb tolerance.
<br />The building erector shall be properly licensed and experienced in erecting metal building systems. The Builder
<br />is responsible fer having knowledge of, and shall comply with, all OSHA requirements and all other governing
<br />site safety criteria. The builder is responsible for designing, supplying, locating and Installing temporary
<br />supports and bracing during erection of the building. VP bracing is designed for code required loads after
<br />building completion and shall not be considered as adequate erection bracing. See VP Builder Memo #BM-006.
<br />EXISTING STRUCTURES
<br />VP must be advised of any existing structure that is within 20 ft. of VP's building. Loadings of both buildings
<br />may be affected when adjacent buildings are within this distance. VP cannot be responsible for the design or
<br />loading of existing buildings.
<br />BRACING
<br />Tension brace rods work in pairs to balance forces caused by initial tensioning. Care must be taken while
<br />tightening brace rods so as not to cause accidental or misalignment of components. All rods must be
<br />installed loose and then tightened. Rods should not exhibit excessive sag. For long or heavy rods, or angles
<br />it may be necessary to support the rod at mid -bay by suspending it from a secondary member.
<br />Bracing for seismic or wind loading of objects or equipment that are not a part of the VP structure must be
<br />designed by a qualified professional to deliver lateral loads to primary frames and rod bracing struts.
<br />Equipment bracing and suspension connections must not impose torsion or minor axis loads, or cause local
<br />distortion in any VP components. VP accepts no responsibility for design or installation of bracing systems
<br />not furnished by VP.
<br />FIELD WELDING
<br />All field welding shall be done at the direction of a design professional, and done in accordance with governing
<br />requirements (AWS in USA, CWB in Canada) by welders qualified to perform the welding as directed by the
<br />applicable welding procedure specification (WPS). A WPS shall be prepared by the contractor for each welding
<br />variation specified. Unless otherwise approved, use E70ksi yield, low hydrogen electrodes. The contractor shall
<br />provide for any special welding inspection as required by code.
<br />DELIVERIES
<br />It is the responsibility of the builder to have adequate equipment available at the job site to unload trucks in
<br />a safe and timely manner. The Builder will be responsible for all retention charges from carriers as a result
<br />of job site unloading delays.
<br />Per VP Builder Memo #BM-001, claims for damage or losses MUST be noted on the Bill -of -Lading or delivery
<br />receipt and filed against the carrier by the consignee as per VP's Terms of Sales (F.O.B. Plant) under the
<br />Uniform Commercial Code. It is critical that damages or loss be noted on the Bill -of -Lading or you have
<br />little recourse with the carrier. Immediately upon delivery of material, material quantities are verified by the
<br />Builder against quantities billed on the shipping document. Neither the Manufacturer nor the carrier is
<br />responsible for material shortages against quantities billed on the shipping document if such shortages are not
<br />noted on the shipping documents upon delivery of material and acknowledged by the carriers agent. For
<br />materials concealed in bundles, boxes, or crates, shortages must be reported immediately upon unpacking.
<br />Should products get wet, bundled and crated materials must be unpacked and unbundled immediately to
<br />provide drainage of trapped moisture.
<br />SEALANTS
<br />Sealants shall be applied in strict accordance with VP details or weather tightness will be compromised.
<br />Sealant must be applied in temperatures and weather conditions consistent with labeling.
<br />Butyl Sealants - Service Temperature Range (Degrees): Min -60F (-51C); Max 220F (104C)
<br />Tape sealants - Service Temperature Range (Degrees): Min -60F (-51C); Max 212F (100C)
<br />INDEPENDENT MEZZANINES
<br />Independent mezzanines must be designed by a professional engineer. The engineer must ensure that proper
<br />Isolation from the VP building has been provided to avoid structural damage due to differential movements, or
<br />inadvertently apply loads to the VP structure. VP accepts no responsibility for the design of the independent
<br />mezzanine.
<br />It is the responsibility of the project design professional and [,wilder to comply with local fire code regulations
<br />including consideration of, but not limited to, building use and occupancy, all building construction materials,
<br />separation requirements, egress requirements, fire protection systems, etc. Builder shall advise VP of any
<br />special requirements to be furnished by VP.
<br />SSR roof fire tested to ASTM E108-93-Class A rating.
<br />VP steel roof systems are defined by IBC as Fire Class A roof assemblies (Sec 1505.2).
<br />VP SSR steel roof systems are available for FM Class 1 fire rating.
<br />UL 263 approved fire rated assemblies listed as Design No. P265, P268 and P516.
<br />FIELD MODIFICATIONS
<br />Modifications to this building from details and instructions contained ore these drawings must be approved in
<br />writing by VP Building engineers, or other licensed structural engineer. This includes, but is not limited to,
<br />removal of roof or wall cladding, removing or moving any flange braces or rod braces, cuttin- of openings for
<br />doors, windows or RTU's, correction of fabrication errors, etc. The owner shall not impose loads to this
<br />structure beyond what is specified for this building in the contract documents. VP Buildings, Inc. accepts no
<br />responsibility for the consequences of any unauthorized additions, alterations, or added loads to this structure.
<br />Per VP Builder Memo #BM-001, if the builder intends to invoice VP Buildings for modifications in excess of
<br />$1000, the builder must notify VP Buildings immediately, and obtain a Work Authorization from VP Buildings
<br />prior to proceeding. All final claims must be submitted to VP Buildings with all supporting documentation
<br />within 30 days of the building completion. Claims submitted without work authorizations, or after 30 days will
<br />not be accepted. Correction of minor misfits, shimming and plumbing, moderate amount of reaming, drilling,
<br />chipping / cutting and minor welding are considered by Code of Standard Practice to be part of erection are
<br />not subject to claim reimbursement.
<br />CONCRETE/MASONRY/CONVENTIONAL STUD WALLS
<br />The engineer responsible for the design of the wall system is responsible for coord°nating with, or specdying to
<br />VP Buildings, any wall to steel compatibility issues such as drift and deflection compatibility, special base
<br />details, and wall to VP steel connections. All fasteners, sealant and counter flashing of wall systems are to
<br />be provided by contractor. The engineer responsible for the wall shall design the anchorage to VP supporting
<br />elements consistent with Code required forces including ASCE7-05 Sec, 12.11.
<br />PANELS
<br />Oil canning is an inherent characteristic of cold formed steel panels. It is the result of several factors that
<br />include induced stresses in the raw material delivered to VP, fabrication methods, installation procedures, and
<br />post installation thermal forces. Thru fastened panels will exhibit some dimpling when installed, especially when
<br />insulation is installed between panels and secondary supports. Dimpling can be minimized by careful
<br />installation, taking care not to over drive fasteners.
<br />Roof rumble is a phenomenon that is caused by wind gusts lifting up on the roof panels and then springing
<br />back into place. All panels experience this action to some degree, especially with concealed clip panels such
<br />as SSR and SLR. Roof rumble noise may be minimized by providing a layer of blanket insulation between
<br />the panels and any hard support surface such as steel secondary members, substrates such as plywood, steel
<br />decking, or rigid board insulation. A minimum of 3 inch thick blanket is recommended over steel secondary
<br />members, or 2 inch over substrates.
<br />Oil canning, dimpling, and roof rumble do not affect the structural integrity or weather tightness of the panels
<br />and is not grounds for rejection of panels.
<br />The SSR/SLR joint detail is designed with an interlocking feature for ease of installation. H-wever, it is
<br />imperative that installed SSR/SLR panels be secured to the secondary structural members and properly seamed
<br />prior to departure from the job site each day.
<br />SKYLIGHTS
<br />VP's Tuflites and VP's domed skylight have been tested to support a 300 lb. load over a 1 sq. ft.. area, as
<br />well as uniform gravity and uplift load test. Local building departments may require added fall restraint due
<br />to conditions that may affect the skylight structural integrity. It is the responsibility of the builder to
<br />determine and provide any added fall restraint under the skylight as may be required by your building
<br />department.
<br />RAIN WATER RUNOFF
<br />Drainage systems must be designed by the project professional to comply with code requirements. VP is
<br />not responsible for drainage designs, overflow scuppers, down piping, etc. The project professional and
<br />contractor are responsible to ensure that primary drains and overflow devices such as scuppers and auxiliary
<br />drains are provided as required for the required rain intensity at the building perimeter and at valley conditions
<br />to prevent ponding.
<br />STEEL SHOP COAT
<br />The purpose of VP's shop coat is to provide protection for the steel members during transportation, during
<br />temporary job site storage and during erection. Standard shop formulation is not designed to perform as a
<br />finish coat when exposed to environmental conditions. Members shall be kept free of the ground and properly
<br />drained during job site storage. It is the Builder's responsibility to ensure that if a finish coat is being applied
<br />over VP shop coat that the painting contractor verifies compatibility between his finish coat and VP's shop
<br />coat. See VP Builder Memo #BM-001 & #BM-002.
<br />THE VP ENGINEER'S SEAL APPLIES
<br />ONLY TO THE WORK PRODUCT OF
<br />VP AND DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE
<br />REQUIREMENTS SPECIFIED BY VP.
<br />THE VP ENGINEER'S SEAL DOES
<br />NOT APPLY TO THE PERFORMANCE
