All tender information MUST be submitted through the CCS eSourcing Portal. National Oceanography Centre (NOC) has a requirement to replace internal expansion mastic joints at node 9 of the Southampton site. The need to undertake this project was recommended during a site condition survey undertaken by NOC in 2016. Tenders are invited from suitably qualified and experienced Principal contractors to undertake and complete the works detailed as part of this Scope of Works. The project involves the replacement of internal mastic joints within Area 494, plus the replacement of the primary (internal) movement joints through the full intersection of Nodes 4 and 9 of the structural frame. Area 494 comprises a single central corridor, with a series of self-contained rooms to each side - as indicated on the following reference plan. The rooms are generally fitted out as offices, but some (Rooms 494/01, 494/02, 494/12 and 494/18) are fitted out as laboratories. The scope of this survey is to check the condition of the internal mastic joints in Area 494 of the NOC main building, and to give recommendations for repair or replacement as appropriate. The survey was carried out by representatives of William Attwell & Associates on 21 September 2017. Samples of the mastic joint materials were taken from Rooms (494) 03, 06, 07, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20 and corridor 494/100. The remaining rooms and laboratories were subject to a visual inspection only. A full specification can be seen attached to this tender.
