About this file
This document is a detailed technical drawing package for FEMA's NextGen Express Manufactured Housing Unit (MHU) with a Furnace/AC System, specifically designed for Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area Construction. The drawings are part of Solicitation 70FB8025R00000018 and dated February 3, 2025. The 8' wide Express MHU includes comprehensive technical specifications covering electrical, HVAC, roof framing, chassis, transit protection, and tie-down system details. Key technical specifications include a 10 KW electric furnace, 1.5-ton air conditioning system, 7/16" OSB roof sheathing, wind zone 1 requirements, and compliance with California Residential Code standards for fire-resistant construction. The design incorporates specific requirements for exterior materials, insulation, ventilation, and structural integrity to withstand transportation and potential wildfire environments.
The technical drawings provide granular details on construction methods, including wall framing using 2x4 SPF studs, gypsum board interior finishing, LP SmartSide paneling, and specific fastening schedules for various building components. Transportation-related specifications cover lighting requirements, wind diverters, and tie-down systems designed to secure the unit during transit and installation. The package includes precise measurements for electrical layouts, HVAC design, roof overhangs, and exterior wall configurations, with notes addressing fire safety, wind resistance, and compliance with federal manufactured housing construction standards. Each drawing is meticulously annotated with technical specifications, installation guidelines, and regulatory compliance information.
