8.
FIRE PROTECTION
No submission is required.
9.
HEATING, VENTILATING & AIR CONDITIONING
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on all heating, ventilating and air conditioning
systems. Determine minimal acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic
corrections.
b. Provide estimated heating and cooling requirements of the existing and/or new buildings
configurations based on changes in functions or the gross square feet area of each unique
function space, that is, patient bedrooms wing, animal research area, laboratories, offices,
etc. Coordinate changes in the estimated preliminary steam demand with the A/E
submission requirements of the Steam Generation Section.
c. Investigate the availability of utilities, such as natural or propane gas, electricity, etc., to
address required changes in the HVAC equipment and provide description of changes
required because of seismic corrections.
d. Provide description of the changes to zoning of the spaces for existing HVAC systems.
If changes of system are required, state clearly the engineering criteria and rationale used
for selecting three different types of HVAC systems for the life cycle cost analysis for each
functional space. State clearly all assumptions and parameters to be used in the analysis.
If the analysis is scheduled to be performed on a computer, provide the name of the
program.
e. Provide description of the impact of seismic corrections on energy conservation goals of
the facility. If significant impact is identified, recommend system changes to indicate
increased energy usage. State clearly the logic and criteria used in selecting each
conservation measure.
10.
INTERIOR DESIGN
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on all interior designs. Determine minimal
acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic corrections.
11.
PLUMBING
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on plumbing systems. Determine minimal
acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic corrections.
b. If modernization is involved, describe the existing facilities and make recommendations
to replace or reuse fixtures and equipment.
c. Locate and provide approximate sizes of new equipment.
