About this file

This is a detailed technical specification document for renovations to the Harbor Springs Public Schools High School Performing Arts Center (PAC) in Harbor Springs, MI, Project #2024-007.1, prepared by French Associates architects. The project encompasses theatrical rigging and drapery upgrades (Section 11 6133), theatrical lighting upgrades (Section 11 6163), theatrical lighting control systems (Section 26 5561), and audio/visual equipment upgrades (Section 27 4100). The base bid includes power control enclosure upgrades, circuit distribution improvements, cyclorama fixtures, and wireless DMX equipment. There are four alternates: Alternate #1 for lighting control network installation and architectural controls upgrades, Alternate #2 for a complete drapery package replacement, Alternate #3 for new theatrical lighting fixtures, and Alternate #4 for a digital audio mixing package.

The project requires specialized contractors and vendors with theatrical equipment expertise. All electrical work must be performed by qualified electrical contractors working in conjunction with approved theatrical vendors. Major equipment manufacturers specified include ETC, Chauvet, City Theatrical, Yamaha, and Fred Krieger. The base scope includes upgrading existing Sensor dimming racks with new CEM3 processors, installing cyclorama lighting, and implementing wireless DMX control. Alternate #1 adds a comprehensive data network and architectural control system. Alternate #2 replaces all stage draperies with new IFR fabrics. Alternate #3 adds LED theatrical lighting fixtures.
