# 1.04 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. [Provide each rolling door]{.underline} as a complete unit produced
by one manufacturer, including frames, sections, brackets, guides,
weatherstripping, counterbalance mechanism, hardware, operators and
installation accessories to suit openings and headroom allowable.
Materials and equipment shall be the standard products of manufacturers
regularly engaged in the production of such material and shall be the
manufacturer\'s current and standard design.

B. [Inserts and Anchorages]{.underline}: Furnish inserts and anchoring
devices which must be set in concrete or built into steel framing or
masonry for installation of units. Coordinate delivery with other work

wind loading pressure.

## 1.05 [DELIVERY, STORAGE AND HANDLING]{.underline}

A. [Deliver materials]{.underline} to site at such intervals as to
ensure uninterrupted progress of work.

B. [Deliver anchor bolts and anchorage devices]{.underline}, which are
to be embedded in cast-in-place concrete or masonry, in ample time so
that work will not be delayed.

C. [Store materials]{.underline} to permit easy access for inspection
and identification. Keep steel members off ground by using pallets,
platforms, or other supports. Protect steel members and packaged
materials from corrosion and deterioration. If anchor bolts, connection
bolts and nuts become dry or rusty, clean and lubricate before use. Do
not store materials on structure in a manner that might cause distortion
or damage to members or supporting structures. Repair or replace damaged
materials or structures as directed.

## 1.06 [PROJECT CONDITIONS]{.underline}

[Field Measurements]{.underline}: Check actual locations of new and
existing walls and other construction to which rolling steel door must
fit. Verify the accuracy of field measurements before fabrication, and
show recorded measurements on final shop drawings.

# PART 2 - PRODUCTS

## 2.01 [DOOR CURTAIN]{.underline}

A. [Construct door curtain]{.underline} from interlocking slats
