1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI) Public Transport Services Division (PTS) owns and operates the Adelaide Metropolitan Passenger Rail Network (AMPRN). There are approximately 85 stations serving the AMPRN. The significant number of stations means that the process of upgrading or renewal is continuous. In order to both economise on design and construction effort and costs and enhance the passengers’ experience a set of common design and construction technical standards for stations has been developed.

Because the set of station standards is primarily used within the contract administration process the technical standards documents must be aligned with both the DPTI wide Master Specification and the PTS engineering management system.

The document attached at Annex A, Technical Standard – Stations - Shelters, is one of the set of station standards.

1.1 PURPOSE

The purpose of this Technical Standard is to outline the design and sitting requirements for new shelters at the station precinct.

1.2 SCOPE

This Technical Standard applies to all PTS projects and contractor organisations designing, constructing or maintaining passenger stations on the AMPRN.

SURFACE PREPARATION 1.1 Sweep (Brush) Blasting All surfaces shall be brush blasted in accordance with AS 4680, Appendix 1, “Information on the use of Sweep (Brush) Blast Cleaning of Galvanised Steel Prior to Painting”. The abrasive shall be clean, with a maximum level of total dissolved salt of 0.01%, when determined in accordance with TP765. For the purposes of testing the abrasive blast medium the Contractor shall supply the Superintendent with at least one 2 kg sample of garnet seven days prior to the start of prescribed works. The sample is to be labelled with the batch number, QC number, and any other relevant details. 1.2 Cleaning of Surface All surfaces shall be cleaned using AGAR H.F. Detergent, as follows: (1) Mix detergent with fresh water at a rate of 1 part detergent to 10 parts of water. (2) Apply to all surfaces using a soft bristle broom or banister brush, working over the surface, and allow

to stand for 1 to 2 minutes. (3) Rinse with liberal quantities of fresh water or a high pressure water cleaner. (4) Allow to dry. Note: This product must be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s Material Safety Data Sheet. 2. COATING SYSTEM 2.1 System The coating system shall be one of the following:

The finish coat(s) specified shall be manufactured using colour-fast pigments, and shall provide total coverage of an opacity display chart, as described in AS 1580.213.1, at the manufacturer’s recommended application rate. 2.4 Site Repair of Damaged Galvanising / Paint Damaged areas where the galvanising is affected shall be repaired as follows: (1) Power tool clean all bare metal and weld areas to a minimum of Class 2 finish, in accordance with

AS 1627.2. (2) Apply two coats of 2-pack epoxy zinc rich primer as approved to APAS-2916 to all bare metal areas. Damaged areas of paint where the galvanising is unaffected, or galvanising has been repaired, shall be repaired as follows: (1) Feather back all edges by hand or mechanical sanding using fine abrasive and remove all loose

particles. (2) Apply one full coat of primer with a minimum overlap of 25 mm to sound paint. (3) Apply one full coat of intermediate coat where specified, with a minimum overlap of 25 mm to sound

paint. (4) Apply finish coat(s) ensuring that all primed and intermediate coated areas are covered. 2.5 Records Daily reports shall be maintained of all production using format as described in AS 3894.12 or similar.
