Works have to be carried out following Green Globess requirements in order to obtain a minimum of three globes, with certification. CGF is an existing building whose structural and architectural systems (columns, window mullions, suspended ceiling grids, etc.) are based on metric dimensions. Specific elements, such as the birck masonry and metallic slat ceilings are part of the heritage character of the building and must be preserved. Works include, but not limited to, the demolition of the majority of the existing architectural systems (ceilings, floor coverings, partitions, millwork, etc), selective demolition of electromechanical, material security elements and telecom elements and systems, the construction of new partitions, ceilings and floor finishes, the installation of electromechanical, material security systems adapted to the new work areas layouts and the users needs, as well as various finishing works. As part of the projet, requirements from the building manager ,Brookfield Global Integrated Solutions (BGIS), govern access to the building and to specific parties (eg, daily checks before each shift, access approvals), use of loading and delivery docks, health and safety regulations (eg conformity of exits, evacuation, hazardous materials, etc.) as well as permitted work (eg, period, nature, equipment required, waste management, etc.). The contractor and his staff must comply with these requirements. In order to meet these requirements, some works will have to carried out during the evening and weekends. Works by BGIS such as maintenance, rehabilitations, repairs or refurbishments will occur during construction, in close proximity of the work areas. A continuous coordination with BGIS is required.
