The site has been visited multiple times prior to bid submission to create a viable site logistics & construction sequence plan. Our approach is to minimize the impact to the existing airport and its guests by all means necessary. The plan is to remove the existing signage & patch existing holes from an articulating boom lift during daylight hours while flagging off the area below. The area flagged off below will not impede or affect rental car traffic flow into the existing garage. The existing signage will be disposed of via onsite dumpsters and hauled off accordingly. Just prior to delivery of approved signage, a mobile crane will be set up just east of cell lot entrance. Signage materials will be off loaded into grass area opposite of crane and temporarily staged. Hoisting and installation of new signage will resume during night time hours (non-peak) to minimize the impact to Our team is committed to performing the work with as little disrupt ion to airport operations as possible. Part of this approach includes performing the work outside of normal Explain site assessment approach, including evaluation of existing 2.3 incoming rental car returns. Upon award of the project, Hensel Phelps Design- Build Team will submit a viable night work plan that is acceptable to the Broward County Aviation business hours to minimize disruptions . Also, we plan to stage the crane and hoisting mechanisms in locations to least affect airport operations . Regarding the existing structure, structure, 3 Points. Department. a structural analysis will be conducted to determine the size and location of reinforcing steel to be avoided during installation of the signs. Our team has studied the as-builts provided and visited the site on multiple occasions to further collect information on the existing precast structure. The existing structure appears to be in satisfactory condition and we do not expect to have structural issues anchoring the two new signs to the existing precast walls. Existing precast walls will be scanned prior to installation to ensure new signage anchors do not penetrate existing reinforcing.

An intimate knowledge of the individual airport’s operations is critical to ensuring construction activities are coordinated and scheduled to not affect Airport or airline operations. The ultimate objective for us is to apply a suitable and effective safety approach Prior to starting construction activities on-site, Hensel Phelps will meet with all stakeholders to gather everyone’s concerns with the removal and installation of the new signage. Explain the vendor’s approach to coordinating with airport security ensuring a safe and healthy workplace for employees' onsite. Coning off working areas, directing active traffic, having proper lighting safety equipment, and having a safety Once all stakeholders’ concerns have been addressed, Hensel Phelps will create a site logistics plan incorporating feedback from all stakeholders and will review the plan with 2.4 and stakeholders, including work in an active parking garage person communicating with Airport security daily are just a few safety procedures put into place. Our mod rating of .92, shows we focus on a safe work environment for our airport security and Broward County Aviation Department to gain full acceptance of the plan. Once the plan is accepted by all stakeholders, Hensel Phelps plans to have onsite 5 Points employees not only at our home facility but even more on active jobsites. weekly coordination meetings with applicable airport personnel to ensure everyone is aware of the plan and what to expect for the week.

To illustrate the required detailed project timeline, Hensel Phelps has elected to create a CPM schedule in Primavera P6 to communicate the major milestones, logic and overall duration of the project. See below for major milestone dates with the CPM schedule to follow: • Approximate Contract Award = June 1st, 2018 • Approximate First Notice to Proceed = June 29th, 2018 • Detailed Design Phase – 30% Design Documents = August 13th, 2018 Provide a detailed project timeline, identifying the time to be • Detailed Design Phase – 70% Design Documents = September 12th, 2018 Attached is a ghant chart of a detailed project timeline.

The proposed concept design will consist of aluminum sheeting forming the housing of each sign and will be assembled utilizing stainless steel fasteners. Acrylic panels located along the perimeter of the signs will house the LED lighting. The Welcome Sign will be comprised of 8 sections (4 sections for the back and 4 sections for the front) with minimal seams. Structural aluminum clip angles will line the back of the sign and will be spaced per requirements by structural engineer. Engineered concrete anchors will attached the back framework of the signage to the existing precast panels. LED lighting will be fed from power supplies located on the backside of the signs via photo cell which will activate during night time hours allowing power to be fed to the strands of LED lights. The design/build concept for the fabrication of the “Welcome to FLL” and “Broward County Logo” sign will meet all applicable Florida Building Code standards and will feature the following components below: · American made architectural aluminum angle and sheeting · Low VOC (volatile organic compounds) compliant polyurethane coatings which exceed EPA standards for solvents with a ten (10) year warranty to resist deterioration, Don Bell Signs strives themselves as a high quality sign manufacturer that uses top of the line components .
