SANITARY
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on sanitary systems. Determine minimal
acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic corrections.
b. Provide changes to existing fuel gas, oxygen, and water sources; disposal methods of
sewage and storm water; and proposed fuel gas, water, irrigation, sanitary sewage, and
storm water systems. Indicate if existing utilities and equipment can be used for this
project. Recommend changes required because of seismic corrections.
c. Submit plans indicating existing, abandoned, and proposed utilities listed above.
Provide approximate size of proposed utilities. Locate roughly where treatment facilities (if
required) will be located and areas of lawn irrigation.
13.
SITE DEVELOPMENT
a. Become thoroughly familiar with the medical center site. Provide the following in
narrative and graphic format:
1)
Phasing analysis to determine impacts of seismic corrections on maintaining
hospital routine, ingress/egress of pedestrians and traffic flows, transportation and
new conflicts, areas of future construction, and parking.
b. A formal presentation of the above data may be required. The need for the presentation
and material to be included will be provided by the VA Project Manager.
14.
SPACE PLANNING
Provide a tabular Space-Accounting Summary Table comparing current data with
changes caused by seismic corrections with columns entitled Departmental Function, H-7610
Requirements, Approved Space Program [Net Square Meters [Feet (NSF)], Variance Between
H-7610 and Approved Space Program, Departmental Conversion Factor, Planned Departmental
Gross Square Meters (Feet); column totals; and a Total Project Net to Gross Factor.
15.
SPECIFICATIONS
No submission is required.
16.
STEAM DISTRIBUTION (OUTSIDE)
a. Analyze impact of seismic correction plan on outside steam distribution systems.
Determine minimal acceptable changes necessary to implement seismic corrections.
b. Provide a report with the following information as a minimum:
1)
Identify changes in steam and condensate loads to be carried by the systems;
2)
Description and evaluation of the existing steam distribution facilities which may
be involved in the project. Include an estimate of existing loads, an analysis of
capabilities for changed loads and an estimate of remaining service life for all steam
