1. Project Information

1.1. Location of Work:

1.1.1. Building Number: AK0031AA

1.1.2. Name: US Federal Building & James M. Fitzgerald USCH

1.1.3. Address: 222 W. 7th Avenue, Anchorage, Alaska 99513

1.1.4. Area: 1st Floor - Suite 128

1.2. Background: The US Federal Building & James M. Fitzgerald Courthouse is more commonly referred to as the Anchorage Federal Building, or the AFB. This is not to be confused with the Historic Federal Building, or HFB, which is located four blocks away.

The architectural style of the AFB is considered to be “Great Society-International” and is constructed of a structural steel frame with an exterior skin comprised of concrete panels and glass, separated into six modules. There are poured concrete retaining walls along the sidewalks, concrete planters in the plaza areas which act as vehicle barriers, and the outside plaza sidewalks have heat coils under the paving stones to keep the sidewalk free of snow and ice. The building consists of six floors above grade and one below. The top floor is for mechanical and building support equipment, and the basement floor is a parking garage. There are 493 indoor parking spaces and 146 outdoor parking spaces. The AFB is predominately configured as typical office space and courtroom space. There is a law enforcement pistol shooting range at the basement level as well as two gyms and a cafeteria on the first floor. The primary mission of the building is to house federal agencies and to provide courtroom space.

1.2.1. Project Purpose:

1.1.1.1. United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is currently located in the Michael Building in Anchorage. This construction project will build out space in the AFB in order for the agency to relocate before the current lease expires. USCIS will occupy approximately 11,580square feet on the 1st floor of the AFB.

1.1.1.2. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services administers the nation’s lawful immigration system, safeguarding its integrity and promise by efficiently and fairly adjudicating requests for immigration benefits while protecting Americans, securing the homeland, and honoring their core values.

1.1.1.3. USCIS’s core values are integrity, respect, innovation, and vigilance. More information about these core values can be found at:

Where is Division 078100-Applied Fireproofing applicable to this project?

1/27/2022

This is in the documents. Applied fireproofing is required where existing is disturbed, damaged, or destroyed as a result of construction efforts. The Contractor is responsible for restoring the fireproofing to the required fire resistance rating in an approved manner. Sheets FA100 and FP100 address this requirement specifically.

However, other trades (electrical, mechanical, telecom) are affected. By observation (and must be field verified), existing primary steel members are fireproofed, see photo below from our initial site investigation. It is Veltre’s understanding the old UBC only required primary steel to be protected and there were a few exceptions for omitting protection on secondary members that must have been applied here. It is believed that the underside of the walkerducts were also protected.
