MATERIALS:, CONCRETE: Shall be either average conerete pi bs, SONCRETE: Salles piers or concrete slabs, as shown on the plans and as STANDARDS: The picnic table and bench standards shall be made up of galvanized and powder Coated steel tubular supports and channel seat and table frames as manufactured by All City Play Equipment, Brooklyn, NY or A & T Iron Works Corp., New Rochelle, NY, or approved equal, The tubular supports shall be provided with base angles. The steel tubular supports shall be continuously welded to the channel and the base angle as indicated on the plans. The standards shall be hot- dipped galvanized and powder coated after fabrication. Powder Coating: The galvanized picnic table and bench set standards shall be powder coated with a polyester thermosetting powder coating such as manufactured by Tiger Drylac USA, Reading, PA. Color to be gloss black, RAL-8022 or approved equal. Galvanizing of standards shall provide an acceptable substrate for applied powder coatings. No lacquer, urethane or other coatings which would prevent proper adhesion of powder coating shall be applied to the steel. ‘The powder-coating shall be applied to the galvanized standards in such a manner that the coating will not peel off. Insure surfaces to be coated are clean and dry and free of grease, dust, rust, etc. All coated parts shall firstreceive phosphating and chromatizing treatments to improve the adhesion of the surface coating. 5 ‘The TGIC-Polyester shall be applied at a film thickness of 3 to 4 mils by electrostatic spray process and bake finished per manufacturer's directions. The TGIC-Polyester shall be applied without yoids, tears or cuts that reveal the substrate and shall thoroughly adhere to the metal without peeling when scratched with a pick device or knife blade point. ‘Touch-up & Repair: For minor damaged caused by installation or transportation, clean damaged area, then; . . . 1. On damaged galvanized surfaces, apply organic zinc repair paint complying with ASTM A780, then repair powder coating per number 2 below. Galvanizing repair paint shall have 65 percent zinc by weight. Thickness of repair paint shall be not ess ‘than that required by ASTM A123. 2. On damaged powder coated surfaces, touch-up finish in conformance with manufacturer's recommendations. Provide touch-up such that repair is not visible “4 335 from a distance of six feet (69. LUMBER: All slats for table and benches shall not absorb ‘moisture, corrode, rot, warp, splinter, or crack and shall not contain fiberglass or any material that will be irritating when in contact to the skin, Fabrication Tolerances: Ends shall be smooth with clean cuts, cross-sections shall not have Voids greater than %" dia, Voids of %" dia. or less shall be filled az Per manufacturer's Specifications.
