3. DESIGN ANALYSIS-Base Switching Station-Bldg 1406 and Bldg 1017 (Pgs 501-1104).pdf

This is a Design Analysis document for the Base Switching Station project at Mountain Home Air Force Base (MHAFB), specifically covering the design specifications and technical requirements for Buildings 1406 and 1017.

The document provides comprehensive design analysis for the construction of a new electrical switching station (Building 1017) and the transition plan from the existing facility (Building 1406). The scope includes site work, foundations, structural steel, medium-voltage electrical equipment installation (12.47kV), control building construction, power ductbanks and conduits, and final commissioning. The design analysis establishes current industry standards and performance specifications that the new switching station must meet to ensure reliability and support MHAFB's mission. This technical documentation serves as the foundation for the related solicitation FA489726B0006, a Request for Proposal under a Two-Step Sealed Bidding process set-aside for small business concerns. The design requirements outlined in this analysis define the technical parameters and performance standards that contractors must meet in their proposals, ensuring that the new facility will be constructed to specifications that enable successful transition of base electrical loads from the old to the new switching station prior to demolition of Building 1406.
