d. Indicate changes in the size and shape of all departmental functions and services in the
space program. Label each service or activity listed in the Project Scope Data of the Design
Program and indicate boundaries with a distinctive line. Include the activity code number
(see Handbook 7610). Show departmental area versus departmental net program area as a
fraction (DA/DNPA) for each functional block.
e. Show changes necessary in primary horizontal and vertical circulation (including material
transport), entrances to buildings, main entry point to each functional block, and major
mechanical spaces on the drawings to accommodate seismic corrections. Indicate
structural grid, proposed location of expansion joints, and special seismic structural features.
Clearly distinguish new construction, renovation, and existing construction to remain
unchanged.
f.
Provide a schematic section to define building configuration.
g. Provide all finish floor elevations. Define the relationship of the finish ground floor to
finish grade at major entrances and docks.
h. Submit an architectural narrative explaining each alternate design.
i. Determine if lead abatement (lead paint, x-ray shielding, etc.) is necessary. If so,
provide square meters (feet) of lead paint and x-ray shielding to be removed.
2.
ASBESTOS ABATEMENT
a. Determine if there is asbestos in building and if it will be impacted by seismic
corrections.
b. Submit report to identify areas where asbestos mitigation required.
3.
AUTOMATIC TRANSPORT
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on automatic transport system. Determine
minimal acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic corrections.
4.
CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM)
If required, submit the following including VA comments from discussions and analysis:
a. Phasing Narrative.
b. Phasing Plans (on reduced site plans).
c. Phasing Diagram.
d. Phases marked on all full size drawings submitted for VA review.
