1.0 SCOPE OF WORK

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to replace the existing Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) and base building facility at the Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC) in San Jose, California. As a result, the existing Remote Transmitter/Receiver towers (RTR) and corresponding facilities have to be relocated prior to the construction of the new ATCT and base building. ATCT facilities are considered essential facilities by the International Building Code (IBC) (Risk Category IV) and American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) (Operational 1-A).

The FAA intends to contract an Architectural/Engineering (A/E) firm to design and prepare bid documents for both the new RTR and the new ATCT and Base Building. Work type includes, but is not limited to, engineering studies and preliminary designs, final designs and bidding documents, structural analysis, site surveying, pavement designs, master planning, and construction support. The work requires the A/E to have specific areas of expertise. These areas include, but are not limited to, civil, architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, electrical, and electronics engineering disciplines as well as geotechnical, blast resistance, progressive collapse, surveying, etc. This Scope of Work (SOW) requires High Performance Sustainable Building (HPSB) design compliance, land surveying, geotechnical subsurface investigation, soil analysis, security design, and wind tunnel testing. The work may also include facility management and contract administration support, including, but not limited to, project management support, critical path method (CPM) preparation and analysis, drafters, cost estimators, specification writers, interior designers, and administrative personnel.

The FAA may advertise and bid the construction documents at a later date. Milestone: 70% submission must be provided no later than December 3, 2024 for FAA internal decision process.

Construction support is considered in the scope of this project but will not be awarded until the start of construction. The construction support includes, but is not limited to shop drawing review, site inspection, and construction management. Construction support will be listed as a contract line item number (CLIN) on the award document.

1.1 POINTS OF CONTACT

Inquiries regarding this contract should be directed to the Contracting Officer. The A/E must not release any information concerning individual projects to the public without written authorization from the FAA.

1.2 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The existing ATCT and Base Building was constructed in 1992 and was designed to accommodate 7 operational positions to serve Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC). The existing RTR site was built in 2003 and consists of 4 towers, one equipment shelter, a storage shelter, and a fenced storage area. With the current projected growth of operations at this airport and the extension of one of the runways causing line of sight issues, the old tower no longer meets the demands of air traffic control.

These issues pose a risk to the flying public and a new 185 foot ATCT has been approved to be built in the lot adjacent to the current tower. Site coordinates and plot map are provided in Figure 1. New RTR to be located on “Proposed Secondary Site Development Site.”

The location of the new tower shaft is adjacent and in close proximity to the existing RTR site.

Construction of the new tower may result in interference and/or outages, therefore, the services and information provided by the RTR must be relocated and transitioned to the existing tower prior to starting construction on the new ATCT and Base Building. Once construction of the new RTR site has been completed and service cutover from existing RTR to new RTR, the existing RTR can be demoed and construction of the new ATCT, base building, and its surrounding site improvements can proceed.

2.0 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Initial planning of the ATCT design must be conceptually based on the Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO) ATCT located in Greensboro, North Carolina (refer to Attachment 3 and) for general layout and facility functionality, but must be designed with a shaft to accommodate structural requirements for the ATCT height and seismic loads. The Base Building must be custom-designed for the site, but the design can use the Terminal Facilities Standard Design 11,000SF as a basis. Refer to Attachment 4.

Due to the overall square footage requirements of the Base Building, the height of the ATCT and the site-specific building loads (high seismic) associated with this project, the SJC facilities must not be designed using standard drawings. All design work must be specific to San Jose, California; however, concepts from the standard designs will be used to promote an efficient and economical design. The project must comply with the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA). Blast Design is not required for the ATCT and Base Building due to their categorization as Facility Security Level (FSL) 2.

Design and planning for the new RTR site shall be based on the existing RTR plans provided. Refer to Attachment 5, updated to latest FAA and industry standards and more recent FAA RTR design drawings, specifications, and details - to be provided at a later date. The new RTR site shall include 4 towers designed to meet the height and seismic requirements for the area as well as the clearance and redundancy requirements prescribed by the FAA. Design must also include a precast shelter for electronics equipment, a prefabricated storage building, and a fenced storage area. Both buildings must be insulated, conditioned, and at minimum, the same size as the existing shelter and storage building.

New RTR shall be temporarily connected to the old ATCT throughout the duration of construction of the new ATCT and eventually cutover to the new ATCT upon construction completion.

5. The cab must not have a raised floor.

6. The cab glass must slope outward from the sill at 15 degrees and designed to be installed from the exterior of the building. The panes must span uninterrupted both vertically between both the head and sill and horizontally between the twelve corner points (sloped roof framing members) shown on Figure 2 (horizontal or vertical intermediate window mullions are not permitted). Removal and replacement of the cab glazing must done from the exterior of the building.

a. The A/E must investigate and provide a recommended glazing system. The system must use only annealed, low-iron, uncoated glass and may consist of laminated, monolithic, insulating glass units (IGU) or combination units. The recommendation must cite the advantages and disadvantages of each, taking into consideration that clarity and visibility through the cab glass and its functionality with respect to air traffic operations generally take precedence over energy efficiencies. The impacts must include, but may not be limited to, transmittance, reflectance, distortion, double imaging of IGUs, as well as impacts to solar heat gain, condensation, and HVAC design.

7. The A/E must design the ATCT with the infrastructure for future antenna mounts as the ATCT will have communications antennas on the cab roof and around the cab catwalk.

8. The FAA may install antennas for communication on the cab roof. The A/E must design a cable tray and antenna mounting system for the cab roof. Antenna cables entering the building must be grounded on a copper bulkhead plate mounted in a junction box in accordance with FAA-STD-019, Lightning and Surge Protection, Grounding, Bonding, and Shielding Requirements for Facilities and Electronic Equipment, and the entry point must be designed to be weather tight.
