The remote location of the site means that the Contractor would not be restricted by excessive noise control measures. It should be noted that passing aircraft can produce noise and protective ear equipment may be required. 1.13 Programming of The Works Pearce Air Base (PAB) personnel will tow the Mockup to the birdbath for the washing and drying activities, after which it will be returned to its dedicated parking area for repairs.


The contractor shall lodge with the Contract Administrator a construction program within fourteen days from the date of acceptance of tender, so that the birdbath operations may be organised 1.14 Safety

The contractor shall provide, erect and maintain all barricades, guards, fencing, temporary road-ways, footpaths, signs and lighting and provide and maintain all watching and traffic flagging lawfully required by any public or other authority or necessary for the protection of the work under the contract or of other property or for the safety and convenience of the public and others and shall remove the same when no longer required.

The water sprays positioned in the pavement shall not be used for either port or starboard side washes. During time of high winds, all chemicals shall be adequately contained and shall not impinge on surrounding equipment, personnel and environment. Any ground spillage outside the confines of the birdbath catchment area, including bunded area, must be contained and removed in accordance with EPA and PAB regulations. 2.2 Desirable Weather Conditions

The cleaning of the Mockup shall be done in mild weather conditions. The desirable temperature for washing and drying is 15 to 25 degrees Centigrade with little or no wind. 2.3 Susceptible Areas of Mockup

Areas Prone to Leakage

The following areas are prone to leakage and shall be hand washed: door edges and covers, windows


Areas Prone to Physical Damage

All areas that have graphic designs such as letters or symbols shall be carefully hand washed and dried. Note that the cladding will be damaged by careless foot traffic. The Contractor is permitted to walk on the cladding, providing soft soled footwear, eg “joggers” are worn, and passage is confined to the circumferential line of screws.

Areas Prone to Water Damage

The cladding on the Mockup extends down to the trailer and provides adequate protection from the weather. It shall be noted that the underside of the Mockup is open and its interior and equipment are exposed and likely to be damaged by water sprayed upwards. The contractor shall ensure that no water shall be sprayed upwards and into the confines of the Mockup and onto any equipment, such as the diesel generator, air conditioner, drainage holes, jacking points, and at cladding/trailer interface. The following items shall be carefully hand washed, and no water stream shall be directed onto them: all lights and electrical fittings, intercom jacks, umbilical power connection, any other piece of electrical equipment 2.4 High Lift Mobile Work Platform

It is necessary to use the high lift mobile work platform in cleaning and drying of the Mockup. This equipment is also required for the repair of any damage to the cladding on the Mockup. The contactor shall include a rate for the hire of this equipment for a minimum of seven days after the completion of the Mockup washing and drying. Details of the High Lift Mobile Work Platform shall be submitted for approval. 2.5 Washing Equipment and Materials

High-pressure water sprays shall not be used in washing the Mockup, because there are areas that are prone to physical and water damage, and leakage. Only hand washing shall be used in these areas. However, low-pressure water spray may be used in approved areas. Approved soft bristle brushes or brooms shall be used with any of the approved detergents in washing the cladding. Clean rinse water shall be used with an approved chamois to dry the cladding. Below is a list of approved detergents that are acceptable for use on paint, caulking, rubber seals and windows. The Contractor may submit other products for approval. Material Description Notes Global Green Detergent Dilute 1 part detergent, 40 parts

2.6 Port and Starboard Side Washes

The Mockup shall be washed at two locations within the birdbath catchment area. The port side wash and starboard side wash will be made at the southern and northern bunded areas respectively. A Defence or Transfield licensed Super Tug operator shall be responsible for correctly positioning the Mockup for this purpose. Refer to Appendix A for a plan of the birdbath catchment area. 2.7 Washing Procedure

The washing procedure below shall be adhered to: The port side of the Mockup shall be washed systematically, by washing, rinsing and drying small areas of approximately 4 square metres at a time. Install portable bund as shown on Drawing S1 in Appendix A. Ensure the Mock-up’s ground earth connection is attached to the pavement earthing point. Ensure all doors, exits and access panels are closed. Do not attempt to close any opened door or panel, but contact SASR for all closures. Door covers shall remain in place for the general wash and be removed only when each door is to be washed. All door covers shall be washed. Open the catch drain valve as per the notes on drawing S1. Wash the port side of the Mockup. When the port side wash is completed, contact the Defence or Transfield licensed Super Tug operator to relocate the Mockup to the starboard side wash area. Repeat Steps 1 to 7 for the starboard side wash. When Aircraft Wash is completed remove strain gauge covers and close catch drain valves. Report all damage to Contract Administrator. Refer to Section 3 for details. Contact the Defence or Transfield licensed Super Tug operator to relocate the Mockup to its dedicated parking area for repairs.

3 Repairs 3.1 General

The Contractor shall progressively inspect the Mockup for damage. Once the entire Mockup is clean, the Contract Administrator shall conduct a confirmation inspection. 3.2 Damage Detected during Cleaning Operations

All damage detected during washing and drying the Mockup shall be recorded and suitably marked and reported to Contract Administrator for repair. Damage to the external cladding includes, but is not limited to: distortion of cladding, blistered/flaking paint, stained paintwork, deep scratches, rust spots, loose and missing screws/fasteners, loose caulking compound, cracked/leaking windows, leaking doors, and any damage to graphic designs (signs, letters, numbers). Damage to access stairs, walk ways on wings, exposed electrical equipment, wheels, aerials, lights, and any other piece of equipment, shall also be suitably marked and reported.


3.3 Swarth Stain Removal

During the cladding process, swarth was left after holes were drilled to fix walkways onto the wings. Stains have developed on the wings due to the presence of rusting metal swarth. The Contractor shall submit a quotation for the repair of the damaged paintwork. 3.4 Repair of Damage

The Contractor shall report all damage to the Contract Administrator. The repair of this damage will be done by others and is beyond the scope of this Contract.
