W25G1V22Q0074 Sprinkler System Upgrade

PLEASE REFER TO SOW FOR A DETAILED DESCRIPTION

1. GENERAL
1.1 Overview: Provide all Plant, Labor, Materials, Licenses, Permits, Equipment, Supervision
and Management to complete the design and construction services associated with the Building
221 (Teen CDC) sprinkler upgrade. Any and all exceptions shall be in writing and labeled as
such. Design services shall include site evaluations, design concept meetings and concept
drawing reviews, preparation of construction specifications, construction drawings, and requests
for information and construction cost estimates. Area specific details are included on the
provided building drawing. Dimensions and depictions on drawing are to be field verified by
potential bidders as Tobyhanna Army Depot is not responsible for accuracy of provided
drawings.
The sprinkler system will be designed in conformance with the latest edition of Unified Facilities
Criteria (UFC) 3-600-01, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 13 and American Society
of Sanitary Engineering (ASSE) 1015. All installed equipment shall be labeled by Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) or another U.S. recognized testing agency. The equipment will be acceptance
tested per UFC.
The fire suppression system shall be Water-Based Dry-Piped throughout the entire structure.
The building consists of a basement, living quarters, and attic (three (3) floors). A full analysis
shall be conducted to determine the sprinkler main is adequately sized to allow the sprinkler
system to provide full guaranteed coverage throughout the building.
Mechanical rooms, electrical rooms and fire sprinkler riser rooms shall be classified as “HC-2”.
A hydrant flow test will be required. UFC requires schedule 40 steel pipe, 12 pounds per square
inch (psi) loss through the back flow and 500 Gallons per minute (GPM) hose stream, which all
increase the overall system hydraulic demand.
1.2 Site Visit: In order to gain an understanding of the Bldg. 221 sprinkler project, we suggest
that potential bidders attend a scheduled site visit.
1.3 Key Elements: It is the Contractor’s responsibility to relocate any and all items that may
interfere with the construction of the new sprinkler system. Example; conduits, gas piping.
 

Amendment 0001 was added to the attachments with the following change:

The reason for this amendment is to change the site visit date from Tuesday, March 15th, 2021 to Tuesday, March 15th 2022.
