1. Description of Tasks

1.1.1 Elevation Platform and Windbracing

1.1.2 Technical Specifications

To simplify the preparation of Shop Drawings for the Windbracing Structure, LBTPO and EIE will provide detailed construction drawings for each of the complex nodes in the Windbracing Structure. These drawings will include the development of each node into sub-elements such as plates, reinforcements, bolts, etc. These drawings will also include the development of the pipes connecting the nodes. An example of these detailed drawings of a node has been provided as drawings 512e078, 512e079, 512e080 and 512e081.

1.1.3 Delivery Date

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

1.1.4 Shipping

1.1.5 Technical Assistance during 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.

2. Procedures

2.2 Technical Liaison

   Gianpietro Marchiori
   European Industrial Engineering
   Via Torino #65 D/E
   30170 Mestre (VE)
   ITALY

   telephone: 39-41-531-7906

• Timely notification of all meetings concerning the Work (i.e., technical reviews, program planning meetings, problem solving sessions, etc.).
• Access to data relating to analyses and other technical matters directly pertaining to the work being performed.
• Access to all test procedures and test data.
• Immediate notification of any significant problems.

All workshop drawings, parts lists and manufacturing plans must be submitted to the LBTC Technical Representative for approval before purchasing any materials and/or beginning any construction.

LBTC approval will cover only the functional and conceptual aspects of the design and will not cover the correctness of the dimensions and practicality of the machining. Approval of the drawings shall not indicate acceptance of the Work.
