| Short Description: | Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB) is looking for a contractor to complete upgrades to the timber beams at the pier at our NLB depot in Oban, PA34 4LS. The central section of the pier consists of a T-shape extension to the original pier added in the 1950’s. This provided a front edge of approximately 49m and allowed for berthing in deeper water. This was then extended in the early 2000’s to provide NLB with a larger operational surface area, extending the central section by approximately 10m and creating new eastern and western sections to the pier. All seaward faces have timber fender piles, though only the central section is currently used for berthing The scope of works required are as follows: •Replace 3 No. full pile with like-for-like 360x360mm greenheart pile, replacing brackets, bolts, nuts and spacers as required. •Replace 3 No. fender with heavy-duty rubber D-fender, replacing fixings as required. •Replace 6m of stair support waling with like-for-like 360x360mm greenheart waling beam, replacing brackets, nuts and bolts as required. •Replace total 40m of lower waling with like-for-like 360x360mm greenheart waling beam, replacing splice plates, brackets, nuts and bolts as required. •Replace 8m of cope beam with like-for-like greenheart members (210x210mm and 260x150mm), replacing fixings as required. •Replace 24m of cope beam with like-for-like greenheart members (300x150mm), replacing fixings as required.
