COASTAL STEEL POLE FINISH
MANUFACTURED BY ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMICAL
COMPOSITES
STRYK 5388 FACS
Flexible Anti-Corrosion System
Technical Bulletin
STRYK 5388 FACS is a single component; corrosion retardant coating that imparts
flexibility, impact resistance and excellent weatherability. It also demonstrates a high
degree of impermeability to moisture and will adhere to difficult substrates. STRYK
5388 FACS will not support fungal growth, making it suitable for high humidity and
water-immersed environments. Unlike epoxy coatings, STRYK 5388 FACS will not
crack due to extreme cyclic expansion and contraction, cryogenic temperatures or
deteriorate due to ozone and ultraviolet attack.
When applied on metallic substrates, it forms an impermeable coating that prevents
moisture and oxygen form producing corrosion or oxidation. As a secondary
mechanism, STRYK 5388 FACS utilizes a novel anticorrosion filler that interfaces
with the substrate in the molecular level thus inhibiting metals from corroding even
when the coating has been breached or damaged. It has been successfully used in
numerous surface treatment applications such as metal pipes, structural steel,
exterior tank coatings and cryogenic applications. A single coat (roller applied) will
yield approximately 5 mils dry film thickness.

DIVISION 1
SECTION 01160 – SITE CONDITIONS
PART 1 - SITE INVESTIGATIONS AND REPRESENTATION
1.01 General Investigations
A. The Contractor acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the general
and local conditions, particularly those bearing upon access to the site; handling, storage, and disposal of materials;
availability of water, electricity and roads; uncertainties of weather, or similar physical conditions at the site; the
conformation and conditions of the ground; the equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the execution
of the work; and all other matters which can in any way affect the work or the cost thereof under this Contract.
1.02 Soil Conditions
A. The Contractor further acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the character, quality and quantity of
surface and subsurface materials to be encountered from his inspection of the site and from reviewing any available
records of exploratory work furnished by the Owner or included in these Documents. Failure by the Contractor to
acquaint himself with the physical conditions of the site and all the available information will not relieve him from
responsibility for properly estimating the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work.
1.03 Contractor Representation
A. The Contractor warrants that as a result of his examination and investigation of all the aforesaid data
that he can perform the work in a good and workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the Owner.
The Owner assumes no responsibility for any representations made by any of its officers or agents

elevations, existing construction of site facilities, and similar data will be available for inspection, as applicable, at the
office of the Engineer upon request. Such information is offered as supplementary information only. Neither the
Engineer nor the Owner assumes any responsibility for the completeness or interpretation of such supplementary
information.
A. Differing Subsurface Conditions:
1. In the event that the subsurface or latent physical conditions are found materially different from those indicated
in these Documents, and differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent
in the character of work covered in these Contract Documents, the Contractor shall promptly, and before such
conditions are disturbed, notify the Owner in writing of such changed conditions.
2. The Engineer will investigate such conditions promptly and following this investigation, the Contractor shall
proceed with the work, unless otherwise instructed by the Engineer. If the Engineer finds that such conditions do so
materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost of or in the time required for performing the work, the
Engineer will recommend to the Owner the amount of adjustment in cost and time he considers reasonable. The
Owner will make the final decision on all Change Orders to the Contract regarding any adjustment in cost or time for
completion.
B. Underground Utilities:
1. Known utilities and structures adjacent to or encountered in the work are shown on the Drawings. The locations
shown are taken from existing records and the best information available from existing utility plans, however, it is
expected that there may be some discrepancies and omissions in the locations and quantities of utilities and
structures shown. Those shown are for the convenience of the Contractor only, and no responsibility is assumed by
City of Fort Collins SECTION 01160 – SITE CONDITIONS

Submit licensed engineer’s certification that products meet requirements for 110 mph wind (3 sec.
gust).
PART 4: INSTALLATION
A. Installation shall be per manufacturer’s recommendations and requirements
Netting Installation Instructions
The following pages include the detail specifications required to build the infrastructure
and installing the netting for a barrier netting system. Listed below are the steps in
chronological order.
1. Review specifications and material. Layout material for each pole. If possible,
drill all frame poles, including the vertical cable, prior to setting them in the ground.
2. Install vertical support cable on each pole. Using a hoist, tighten the vertical as
tightly as possible. Install all other hardware on each pole as required. Be sure to
include lock washers on all bolts.
3. Run out horizontal cables on the ground from one end to the other. Hang the
horizontal cables at one end. While hanging the horizontal cables, also hang the
down guy cable.
4. Moving along the line of poles place the horizontal cables in the top grove of the
tree bolt clamps and finger tighten only. The cable must be able to slide back and
forth, but not fall out of the clamp. Continue to last pole.
5. The helical pier ground anchors need to be installed, usually 7’ to 8’ behind each
end pole. Once installed and prior to tightening the horizontal cables, pull the
down guy cables tight and fasten them to the anchor with the performed cable
grips. Make sure the end pole is straight and maybe even leaning very slightly
towards the anchor. The down guy cables must be installed at each end and
tightened prior to tightening the horizontal cables.
6. Tighten the horizontal cables using a hoist. Pull them to the recommended
tension. Fasten them to the eye bolt or eye nut with a performed cable grip.
7. Lay out the netting. The netting is packaged in a box. The snaps will be in the
box as well. There will be a tag on the netting near the top of the box. It will
identify the corner of the netting. Attach the corner of the netting to the
appropriate pole by snapping it to the vertical cable, feed out the netting along the
line of poles to the opposite end.
8. Once the netting is stretched out, identify the top, center and bottom rib lines.
Make sure the rib lines are on the side of the net facing the poles. Start placing the
snaps on the border and rib lines. Try and install them all in the same direction.
Place the snaps on the perimeter border every two to three feet, or approximately
every four to six spaces. Place the snaps on the interior verticals and horizontals
three feet apart or approximately every six spaces.
9. CAUTION: Do not try to install the netting during high winds. Begin
hanging the netting at one end on the top horizontal. Fasten at least one snap on
the end vertical. Continue to fasten the netting as you move along. When you
reach the next pole, pull the netting tight and fasten the horizontal rib line to the
vertical support cable. Tighten the three bolt clamps as you arrive at each pole.
Now you can fasten the center rib line to the center horizontal support cable. Do
the same thing in the next section. Do not fasten the bottom of the net until the
entire top and bottom are snapped into place. The netting should be tight when
installed and snapping the corners in place may require some tugging. You will
notice some small spots where the netting is gathered, (spider webs). Small
strands hooking onto other strands cause this. Simply pull them apart. They will
eventually pull themselves apart if you can’t reach them.
Be sure to tighten all bolts and to use lock washers. The netting vibrates in the wind
and will loosen bolts if not tightened properly.

STRYK 5388 FACS is a single component; corrosion retardant coating that imparts
flexibility, impact resistance and excellent weatherability. It also demonstrates a high
degree of impermeability to moisture and will adhere to difficult substrates. STRYK
5388 FACS will not support fungal growth, making it suitable for high humidity and
water-immersed environments. Unlike epoxy coatings, STRYK 5388 FACS will not
crack due to extreme cyclic expansion and contraction, cryogenic temperatures or
deteriorate due to ozone and ultraviolet attack.
When applied on metallic substrates, it forms an impermeable coating that prevents
moisture and oxygen form producing corrosion or oxidation. As a secondary
mechanism, STRYK 5388 FACS utilizes a novel anticorrosion filler that interfaces
with the substrate in the molecular level thus inhibiting metals from corroding even
when the coating has been breached or damaged. It has been successfully used in
numerous surface treatment applications such as metal pipes, structural steel,
exterior tank coatings and cryogenic applications. A single coat (roller applied) will
yield approximately 5 mils dry film thickness.

DIVISION 1
SECTION 01160 – SITE CONDITIONS
PART 1 - SITE INVESTIGATIONS AND REPRESENTATION
1.01 General Investigations
A. The Contractor acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the general
and local conditions, particularly those bearing upon access to the site; handling, storage, and disposal of materials;
availability of water, electricity and roads; uncertainties of weather, or similar physical conditions at the site; the
conformation and conditions of the ground; the equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the execution
of the work; and all other matters which can in any way affect the work or the cost thereof under this Contract.
1.02 Soil Conditions
A. The Contractor further acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the character, quality and quantity of
surface and subsurface materials to be encountered from his inspection of the site and from reviewing any available
records of exploratory work furnished by the Owner or included in these Documents. Failure by the Contractor to
acquaint himself with the physical conditions of the site and all the available information will not relieve him from
responsibility for properly estimating the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work.
1.03 Contractor Representation
A. The Contractor warrants that as a result of his examination and investigation of all the aforesaid data
that he can perform the work in a good and workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the Owner.
The Owner assumes no responsibility for any representations made by any of its officers or agents
during or prior to the execution of this Contract, unless (1) such representations are expressly stated in
the Contract, and (2) the Contract expressly provides that the responsibility therefore is assumed by the
Owner.
PART 2 - INFORMATION ON SITE CONDITIONS
2.01 General
Any information obtained by the Engineer regarding site conditions, subsurface information, groundwater
elevations, existing construction of site facilities, and similar data will be available for inspection, as applicable, at the
office of the Engineer upon request. Such information is offered as supplementary information only. Neither the
Engineer nor the Owner assumes any responsibility for the completeness or interpretation of such supplementary
information.
A. Differing Subsurface Conditions:
1. In the event that the subsurface or latent physical conditions are found materially different from those indicated
in these Documents, and differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent
in the character of work covered in these Contract Documents, the Contractor shall promptly, and before such
conditions are disturbed, notify the Owner in writing of such changed conditions.
2. The Engineer will investigate such conditions promptly and following this investigation, the Contractor shall
proceed with the work, unless otherwise instructed by the Engineer. If the Engineer finds that such conditions do so
materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost of or in the time required for performing the work, the
Engineer will recommend to the Owner the amount of adjustment in cost and time he considers reasonable. The
Owner will make the final decision on all Change Orders to the Contract regarding any adjustment in cost or time for
completion.
B. Underground Utilities:
1. Known utilities and structures adjacent to or encountered in the work are shown on the Drawings. The locations
shown are taken from existing records and the best information available from existing utility plans, however, it is
expected that there may be some discrepancies and omissions in the locations and quantities of utilities and
structures shown. Those shown are for the convenience of the Contractor only, and no responsibility is assumed by
City of Fort Collins SECTION 01160 – SITE CONDITIONS

relocations shall be made only by direction of the Owner’s Representative. If existing structures are encountered that
prevent the construction, and that are not properly shown on the Drawings, notify the Owner’s Representative before
continuing with the construction in order that the Owner’s Representative may make such field revision as necessary to
avoid conflict with the existing structures. If the Contractor shall fail to so notify the Owner’s Representative when an
existing structure is encountered, and shall proceed with the construction despite the interference, he shall do so at his
own risk.
3.04 Easements
A. Easements and permits will be obtained by the Owner where portions of the work are located on public or

agencies where side agreements or special easements have been made by the Contractor or where the Contractor's
operations, for any reason, have not been kept within the construction right-of-way obtained by the Owner.
B. It is anticipated that the required easements and permits will be obtained before construction is started.
However, should the procurement of any easement or permit be delayed, the Contractor shall schedule and perform the
work around these areas until such a time as the easement or permit has been secured.
3.05 Land Monuments
A. The Contractor shall notify the Owner’s Representative of any existing Federal, State, Town, County,
and private land monuments encountered. Private monuments shall be preserved, or replaced by a
licensed surveyor at the Contractor's expense. When Government monuments are encountered, the
Contractor shall notify the Owner’s Representative at least two (2) weeks in advance of the proposed

PART 4: INSTALLATION
A. Installation shall be per manufacturer’s recommendations and requirements
Netting Installation Instructions
The following pages include the detail specifications required to build the infrastructure
and installing the netting for a barrier netting system. Listed below are the steps in
chronological order.
1. Review specifications and material. Layout material for each pole. If possible,
drill all frame poles, including the vertical cable, prior to setting them in the ground.
2. Install vertical support cable on each pole. Using a hoist, tighten the vertical as
tightly as possible. Install all other hardware on each pole as required. Be sure to
include lock washers on all bolts.
3. Run out horizontal cables on the ground from one end to the other. Hang the
horizontal cables at one end. While hanging the horizontal cables, also hang the
down guy cable.
4. Moving along the line of poles place the horizontal cables in the top grove of the
tree bolt clamps and finger tighten only. The cable must be able to slide back and
forth, but not fall out of the clamp. Continue to last pole.
5. The helical pier ground anchors need to be installed, usually 7’ to 8’ behind each
end pole. Once installed and prior to tightening the horizontal cables, pull the
down guy cables tight and fasten them to the anchor with the performed cable
grips. Make sure the end pole is straight and maybe even leaning very slightly
towards the anchor. The down guy cables must be installed at each end and
tightened prior to tightening the horizontal cables.
6. Tighten the horizontal cables using a hoist. Pull them to the recommended
tension. Fasten them to the eye bolt or eye nut with a performed cable grip.
7. Lay out the netting. The netting is packaged in a box. The snaps will be in the
box as well. There will be a tag on the netting near the top of the box. It will
identify the corner of the netting. Attach the corner of the netting to the
appropriate pole by snapping it to the vertical cable, feed out the netting along the
line of poles to the opposite end.
8. Once the netting is stretched out, identify the top, center and bottom rib lines.
Make sure the rib lines are on the side of the net facing the poles. Start placing the
snaps on the border and rib lines. Try and install them all in the same direction.
Place the snaps on the perimeter border every two to three feet, or approximately
every four to six spaces. Place the snaps on the interior verticals and horizontals
three feet apart or approximately every six spaces.
9. CAUTION: Do not try to install the netting during high winds. Begin
hanging the netting at one end on the top horizontal. Fasten at least one snap on
the end vertical. Continue to fasten the netting as you move along. When you
reach the next pole, pull the netting tight and fasten the horizontal rib line to the
vertical support cable. Tighten the three bolt clamps as you arrive at each pole.
Now you can fasten the center rib line to the center horizontal support cable. Do
the same thing in the next section. Do not fasten the bottom of the net until the
entire top and bottom are snapped into place. The netting should be tight when
installed and snapping the corners in place may require some tugging. You will
notice some small spots where the netting is gathered, (spider webs). Small
strands hooking onto other strands cause this. Simply pull them apart. They will
eventually pull themselves apart if you can’t reach them.
Be sure to tighten all bolts and to use lock washers. The netting vibrates in the wind
and will loosen bolts if not tightened properly.
