H50 WATERFRONT UTILITIES


SYSTEMS REQUIREMENTS
WATERFRONT UTILITIES TEMPLATE 02/18

Instructions for using this template: There are template files for each UNIFORMAT Level 2 Group Elements. This template is for Group Element H50-WATERFRONT UTILITIES.  Text such as this is hidden text that will not print when the hidden text box in "Print/Options" is un-checked.

Edit this template for the requirements of the project and wherever brackets [ ] appear. Use UFC 4-150-02, Dockside Utilities for Ship Services, UFC 3-201-01, Civil Engineering, UFC 3-401-01, Mechanical Engineering, UFC 3-501-01, Electrical Engineering, and UFC 3-600-10N, Fire Protection Engineering when determining Waterfront Utilities system requirements.

The SYSTEMS REQUIREMENTS are intended to define items that are required throughout the facility or on a system wide basis that are common to waterfront facilities. Waterfront Utilities-specific requirements are defined in GENERAL SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS paragraph of Section H50.  Coordinate with the lead programmer for interface requirement with other elements of the program. Editing is required where brackets [ ] appear. Delete all Waterfront Utilities elements that are not required for the project. If additional elements or sub-elements are required for the projects that do not appear in the template, consult with the Capital Improvements section at NAVFAC Atlantic for additional element numbers and description. Coordinate with the PERFORMANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION SECTION H50 to ensure that performance requirements are provided for all of the Waterfront Facility Elements listed here and that paragraph numbering matches.

There may be rare occasions when prescriptive specifications may either be edited and included in Part 5 of the RFP or required in PTS Section H50 to be edited by the Contractor's Designer of Record.  In both cases, the Engineering Systems Requirements (ESR) must include references to these documents.
