NAVFAC Design-Build Model Request for Proposal - Marine Corps BEQ

F10 GENERAL

RFP Part 3 including the Engineering System Requirements (ESR) provide project specific requirements.  The RFP Part 4, Performance Technical Sections (PTS) provide generalized technical requirements that apply to multiple facility types and include more requirements than are applicable to any one project. Therefore, only the RFP Part 4 requirements that apply to the project and further define the RFP Part 3 project specific requirements are required.

F10 1.1 DESIGN GUIDANCE

NOTE:  This Performance Technical Specification (PTS) has been developed to utilize certain UFGS sections for prescriptive requirements.  However, there may be rare occasions when additional prescriptive specifications may be identified by the Engineering Systems Requirements (ESR) to be edited by the Contractor's Designer of Record. If other UFGS sections or standards are to be referenced in this PTS section, list those not covered by the UMRL in the following two paragraphs.

If the product or system is new and not covered in the PTS, provide a new paragraph and heading.  If the product or system is presently covered in the PTS but is being changed by the reference to the UFGS, edit the PTS paragraphs to eliminate redundancy or conflicts.  In either case, identify the UFGS section in the products and materials (UNIFORMAT II/WBS level 4) text of the PTS as follows:

"Uniformat II/WBS Number – Paragraph Number Paragraph Heading
The Designer of Record must utilize UFGS Section Number, "Section Title" for the project specification, and must submit the edited specification section as a part of the design submittal for the project."

Provide the design and installation in accordance with the following references. This Performance Technical Specification (PTS) adds clarification to the fundamental requirements contained in the following Government Standards. The general requirements of this PTS section are located in PTS Section Z10, General Performance Technical Specification.

Industry standards, codes, and Government standards referenced in the section text that are not found in the Unified Master Reference List (UMRL) in the Federal Facility Criteria (FFC) at the Whole Building Design Guide (WBDG) website, are listed below for basic designation identification. Comply with the required and advisory portions of the current edition of the standard at the time of contract award.

F10 1.1.1 Government Standards

UNIFIED FACILITIES CRITERIA (UFC)

Utilize this paragraph to list tests to be performed by the Contractor as required by the Designer of Record (DOR).  Delete the paragraph if there is to be no testing cited.

F10 1.2 PERFORMANCE VERTIFICATION AND ACCEPTANCE TESTING

Provide verification of satisfactory special construction system performance via Performance Verification Testing, as detailed in this section of the RFP.  Provide special tests and special inspections in accordance with Part 2 Section 01 45 00, Quality Control.

F10 1.3 DESIGN SUBMITTALS

Provide design submittals in accordance with Z10, General Performance Technical Specifications, Part 2 Section 01 33 10.05 20, Design Submittal Procedures, Facilities Criteria (FC) 1-300-09N, Navy and Marine Corps Design Procedures, UFC 3-101-01, Architecture, and UFC 3-301-01, Structural Engineering.

NOTE:  NAVFAC has made every effort to use commercial standards in the PTS sections.  If project requirements dictate the use of a UFGS section as a standard, add a paragraph here listing the required UFGS section. State in the paragraph that the DOR must edit this UFGS section in accordance with PTS Z10 and submit it as a part of the design submittal. 

F10 1.4 CONSTRUCTION SUBMITTALS

Submit construction submittals in accordance with PTS Section Z10, General Performance Technical Specifications.  In addition to the Z10 requirements, the Designer of Record (DOR) must approve the following submittals as a minimum:

All structural elements necessary for construction.

For a pre-engineered metal building, provide shop drawings showing engineering data and complete building drawings, signed and sealed by a registered professional engineer.

F1010 SPECIAL STRUCTURES

F101001 METAL BUILDING SYSTEMS

F101001 1.1 DESIGN REQUIREMENTS

The metal building manufacturer must be accredited in accordance with all Parts of the Accreditation Criteria for Inspection Programs for Manufacturers of Metal Building Systems (AC472) by the International Accreditation Service, Inc. Design the Metal Building System in accordance with the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) Low Rise Manual. 

All structural design must comply with the provisions of PTS Section B10, Superstructure. The steel structure must be as designed by the structural engineer. If used for thrust bracing, tie rods must be concrete encased. Design framed openings structurally.

F101001 1.1.1 Additional Roof Design Requirements

1. Roof Decking – In addition to any other load requirements, roof decking must be designed to support a 200-pound (91 kg) concentrated load at mid-span on a 12-inch (300 mm) wide section of deck.  
2. When used as a diaphragm, roof decks must be designed in accordance with SDEI DDM.

F101001 1.1.2 Deflection

1. Structural Members
   
   1)  Maximum deflection of main framing members and for roof members must not exceed values required by the International Building Code (IBC).
   
   2)  Purlins and Roof Panels:  The deflection due to live, snow, or wind must not exceed L/180.  The Basis of Design must establish that the roof when deflected under dead plus live or snow loads will not result in a negative gradient.  Maximum deflections must be based on sheets continuous across two or more supports with sheets unfastened and free to deflect.  Provide bracing of purlin compression flanges as required to resist applied loading.
2. Wall Panels - Maximum deflection of wall panels due to wind loads must be as required by the IBC and UFC.
