DELIVERY, HANDLING, AND STORAGE
Package and protect materials during shipment. Uncrate and inspect
materials for damage, dampness, and wet-storage stains upon delivery to the
job site. Remove from the site and replace damaged materials that cannot
be restored to like-new condition. Handle sheet metal items to avoid
damage to surfaces, edges, and ends. Store materials in dry,
weather-tight, ventilated areas until immediately before installation.

MATERIALS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Permit use of optional materials to extent
that project design, relative costs, local
environmental conditions, and commercial
availability permit. Relative costs for materials
listed in Table I range from 100 as index for
stainless steel followed by terne-coated steel,
zinc-coated steel, and copper in that order down to
approximately 50 for aluminum, based on weights,
gages and thicknesses indicated. Exposed sheet
metal should be of materials noted except where
additions to buildings are made, match existing if
appearance of structure would be detrimentally
affected by use of different material. Use aluminum
to match existing exposed zinc-alloy or galvanized
metal, except use stainless steel in highly
corrosive atmospheres such as around or in
industrial buildings or in coastal areas that
experience high winds or sand abrasion problems.
Where Contractor's choice is limited because of
above conditions, revise accordingly. Delete
inapplicable items. Weights and thicknesses listed
are minimum for items described. If greater weights
and thicknesses are justified by unusual local
conditions, modify accordingly.
