Box 720 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />Re: Professional Engineering Services Proposal - Ice Rink Floor & Dasher Board Replacement <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Czech: <br /> <br />The City's prudent decision to replace the ice arena's existing ice dnk floor will provide you with better <br />reliability, and less operation and maintenance costs. We aro pleased to offer our services to design your new <br />direct ice dnk floor and dasher board system for Rink 1 (Barn). <br /> <br />Project Understanding <br />The Elk River Ice Arena consists of two (2) dnks both served by individual Holmstein direct R-22 refrigeration <br />systems. The refrigeration system serving the original rink or Rink 1 (Barn) has a capacity of 80 tons and the <br />system for the new rink or Rink 2 (Olympic) has capacity of 135 tons. The floor piping for Rink 1 (Barn) is <br />leaking and requires replacement A new direct refrigeration rink floor will replace the existing direct floor. The <br />City has taken the initial step of hiring Braun Intertec to inveslJgate the soils below Rink 1 (Barn). Stevens <br />Engineers has provided the City will preliminary cost information as outlined in the April 18, 2003 letter. <br /> <br />As part of this project the existing wood framed dasher boards will be replaced with a new steel or aluminum <br />framed system. The City has expressed interest in rousing several of the exisling steel framed access gates <br />and possibly the resurfacer gates with the new system. It is undecided at this time whether tempered glass or <br />acrylic shielding will be used. The dasher board system will be bid as a separate package. <br /> <br />The Project includes one (1) design package for a new ice rink floor and one (1) design package for a new <br />dasher board system. The following items will be included in the ice rink floor design: <br /> <br />· Discussion on the need for sub-soil heat system. If the City selects to install a sub-soil heat system <br /> the dnk piping grid for the sub-soil heat piping will be included in this scope of work. <br />· Demolition of existing concrete ice rink slab, rink piping, and floor insulation. The City may remove <br /> and dispose of the concrete material. <br />· Removal of existing soil material as necessary to accommodate new floor insulation system. <br /> <br />Office 2:\Marketing\lce~Proposals~EIk River Floor Replacement 9-2-03.doc GEN <br /> 1656 Livingstone Road · Hudson, WI 54016 <br /> 715-386-5819 · 651-436-2075 · 800-822-7670 · fax: 715-386-5879 · www. stevensengineers.com <br /> <br /> <br />
