PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Examine substrates, areas, and conditions, with Installer present, for compliance with
requirements for court layout, alignment of mounting substrates, installation tolerances,
operational clearances, accurate locations of connections to building electrical system, and
other conditions affecting performance of the Work.
1. Verify critical dimensions.
2. Examine supporting structure, subfloors, and footings below finished floor.
3. Examine wall assemblies, where reinforced to receive anchors and fasteners, to verify
that locations of concealed reinforcements are clearly marked. Locate reinforcements
and mark locations.

B. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.
3.2 INSTALLATION
A. Comply with manufacturer's written installation instructions and competition rules for each type
of gymnasium equipment.
B. Install gymnasium equipment after other finishing operations, including painting, have been
completed unless otherwise indicated.
C. Permanently Placed Gymnasium Equipment and Components: Install rigid, level, plumb,
square, and true; anchored securely to supporting structure; positioned at locations and
elevations indicated; in proper relationship to adjacent construction; and aligned with court
layout.
1. Floor-Insert Locations: Coordinate locations with application of game lines and markers.
2. Floor-Insert Elevation: Coordinate installed heights of floor inserts with installation and
field finishing of finish flooring and floor-plate type.
3. Operating Gymnasium Equipment: Verify clearances for movable components of
gymnasium equipment throughout entire range of operation and for access to operating
components.
D. Floor-Insert Setting: Clean oversized, recessed voids in concrete substrate of debris. Position
each sleeve, and fill void around sleeve with grout, mixed and placed according to grout
manufacturer's written instructions. Protect portion of sleeve above subfloor and footing from
splatter. Verify that sleeves are set plumb, aligned, and at correct height and spacing; hold in
position during placement and finishing operations until grout is sufficiently cured. Set insert so
top surface of completed unit is flush with finished flooring surface.
E. Safety Pads: Mount with bottom edge at dimension indicated on Drawings or, if not indicated, 4
inches above finished floor.
F. Cutout Trim: Limit cuts in face of padding so that cuts are securely and fully concealed behind
trim-kit flange.
G. Anchoring to In-Place Construction: Use anchors and fasteners where necessary to secure
built-in and permanently placed gymnasium equipment to structural support and to properly
transfer load to in-place construction.
H. Connections: Connect electric operators to building electrical system.
I. Removable Gymnasium-Equipment Components: Assemble in place to verify that equipment
and components are complete and in proper working order. Disassemble removable
gymnasium equipment after assembled configuration is approved by Owner, and store units in
location indicated on Drawings.
3.3 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Testing Agency: Owner will engage a qualified testing agency to perform tests and inspections.
B. Perform the following tests and inspections with the assistance of a factory-authorized service
representative:

standard rules of each sport and the equipment manufacturer.
2. Test rebound elasticity of basketball goals.
3. Test basketball goal pressure-release characteristics and adjustability.
C. Gymnasium equipment will be considered defective if it does not pass tests and inspections.
D. Prepare test and inspection reports.
3.4 ADJUSTING
A. Adjust movable components of gymnasium equipment to operate safely, smoothly, easily, and
quietly; free from binding, warp, distortion, nonalignment, misplacement, disruption, or
malfunction, throughout entire operational range; and lubricate as recommended in writing by
manufacturer.
3.5 DEMONSTRATION
A. Engage a factory-authorized service representative to train Owner's maintenance personnel to
