1. Description of Tasks

1.1 Supply Description

1.1.1 Azimuth Ring And C-Ring Structures

This Statement of Work covers the manufacture of the Azimuth Ring And C-Ring Structures for the Large Binocular Telescope. These structures comprise the main azimuth and elevation bearing surfaces for the hydrostatic supports of the telescope. The Supply of these structures includes the Azimuth and Elevation Rim Gear Wheels for the telescope drive systems. The 15 meter diameter Azimuth Ring Structure is composed of eight sectors. Each of the two Elevation Rolling Sectors is a C-Ring (half circle) with extensions. The two C-Rings fit together as a circle for machining. The Supply includes: the preparation of shop drawings, the fabrication, the machining and testing of the steel structures of the Azimuth Ring and C-Rings with the Rim Gear Wheels.

1.1.2 Technical Specifications

The Azimuth Ring hardware will be manufactured in accordance with the Large Binocular Telescope Project's Technical Specification "401e018", entitled "Azimuth Ring Structure", revision "e", dated 04 August 1997; and in accordance with the applicable drawings listed below.

The Elevation Rolling Sectors hardware will be manufactured in accordance with the Large Binocular Telescope Project's Technical Specification "401e029", entitled "Elevation Structure Rolling Sectors and Supporting Arms", revision "d", dated 04 August 1997; and in accordance with the applicable drawings listed below.

1.1.3 Delivery Date

The preferred delivery date for the Azimuth Ring 03 January 1999.

The preferred delivery date for the C-Ring Structures is 01 March 1999.

The proposal should include a time line of the Supply activities.

1.1.4 Shipping

Packing for shipment is included in the Supply. Tranportation to the Telescope Pre-Erection site is not included in this Supply.

1.1.5 Technical Assistance during Telescope Pre-Erection.

The Pre-Erection of all major telescope components will be required at a "to be determined" location before erection of the telescope on Mt. Graham in Arizona. This method has been selected to ensure proper form, fit and functional operation of each and every component of the telescope, before crating and shipment to Arizona. The Pre-Erection activities have been described in general form in the Technical Specification "401e028" , entitled "Telescope Pre-Erection".

Technical assistance during Pre-Erection of the telescope at the "to be determined" factory location or during final installation on Mt. Graham is not included in this Statement of Work. The LBTC reserves the right to negotiate for such services at a later time.

1.2 Deliverable Hardware

Listed in the table below are all the hardware components to be delivered as part of this Statement of Work.
