the fullest extent possible if identical materials are unavailable or cannot be used. Use

materials whose installed performance will equal or surpass that of existing materials.

1.6 INSPECTION

A. Examine surfaces to be cut and patched and conditions under which cutting and

patching is to be performed before cutting. If unsafe or unsatisfactory conditions are

encountered, take corrective action before proceeding.

1. Before proceeding, meet at the Site of the Work with parties involved in cutting

and patching, including mechanical and electrical trades. Review areas of

potential interference and conflict and resolve potential conflicts before

proceeding.

1. Cut existing construction to provide for installation of other components or

performance of other construction activities and the subsequent fitting and

patching required to restore surfaces to their original condition.

B. Cutting: Cut existing construction using methods least likely to damage elements

retained or adjoining construction. Review proposed procedures so as to comply with

the original Installers’ recommendations.

1. In general, where cutting, use hand or small power tools designed for sawing or


May 21, 2018


01045-3

grinding, not hammering and chopping. Cut holes and slots as small as possible,

specified tolerances.

1. Inspect and test patched areas to assure integrity of the installation.

2. Restore exposed finishes of patched areas and extend finish restoration into

retained adjoining construction in a manner that will not show evidence of

patching and refinishing.

3. Where removing walls or partitions extends into adjacent existing spaces, patch

and repair floor and wall surfaces in such places. Provide even surfaces of

uniform color and appearance. Remove existing floor and wall coverings and

replace with new materials, if necessary, to achieve uniform color and

appearance.

4. Where patching occurs in a smooth painted surface, extend final paint coat over

entire unbroken surface containing the patch after the area has received primer

and second coat.

5. Patch, repair, or re-hang existing ceilings as necessary to provide an even-plane

surface of uniform appearance.

1.9 CLEANING

A. Clean areas and spaces where cutting and patching are performed, completely

to be familiar with industry standards applicable to its construction activity

whether or not bound with the Contract Documents.

E. Abbreviations and Names: Trade association names and titles of standards may be

abbreviated. Where such acronyms or abbreviations are used in the Contract

Documents, they mean the recognized name of the trade association,
