Part B – Division 01 – General Requirements

DIVISION 01 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

A. DESIGNATION OF SECURE SPACES

The following Secure Space Matrix identifies spaces or program areas that require “secure” construction in their walls, floors, ceilings, and penetrations such as doors, windows, and mechanical penetrations. Wherever detainees are located within a facility, the entire physical perimeter shall provide essentially a secure “envelope” with a consistency in the level of security.

This physical perimeter may include the exterior fencing, the exterior wall, roof, and floor of a building, and/or the interior walls, ceiling, and floor of an area of the building.

For this Standard, three levels of security are used: “high”, “medium”, and “low”. These levels do not directly relate to the terminology applied to detainees. The physical description of these levels is explained in Paragraph C below. “Non secure” areas may be constructed to a commercial-grade standard as a minimum. The application of these three security levels to program areas are identified below.

B. SECURE ASSEMBLIES AND PENETRATIONS

This section describes the construction materials and assemblies required for secure construction. Three types of secure construction are identified:

“high”, “medium”, and “low”. Where reinforcing bars are identified for secure walls, additional reinforcement may be necessary to meet structural requirements for the specific application.

1. Wall Construction

“High” security walls shall be constructed using one of the following methods:

“High”, “medium”, and “low” security walls must be constructed continuously from a security floor to a secure ceiling. The secure ceiling may be either a secure roof deck or a cap of secure construction built below the roof deck in high bay areas. The continuity of the secure wall construction must be maintained by tying the wall reinforcing into the secure floor and ceiling construction. When this cannot be accomplished, a continuous #4 (No. 13) reinforcing bar shall be cast no more than 1 ½” (38 mm) from the edge of the concrete unit where it meets other concrete or masonry members.

2. Roof / Ceiling Construction

Page B-01-5

“High” security roof/ceiling construction shall be constructed of the following:

Cast-in-place concrete slabs shall be a minimum of 6” (150 mm) thick, 3,000 psi (21 Mpa) concrete with #4 (No. 13 metric) reinforcing bars at 8” (200 mm) on center in one direction. Cast-in-place concrete slabs that are less than 6” (150 mm) thick, but no less than 4” (100

mm) thick shall have a minimum strength of 5,000 psi (35 Mpa) reinforced with W4 (MW26) welded wire fabric at 4” (100 mm) on center in both directions.

Composite metal deck shall be a minimum of 4” (100 mm) total depth, 3,000 psi (21 Mpa) concrete, #4 (No. 13 metric) bars 8” (200 mm) on center in one direction.

Prestressed concrete tees or hollow core slabs shall have a concrete topping to give adequate cover for #4 (No. 13 metric) bars 8” (200 mm) on center in one direction.

Solid concrete planks shall have #4 (No. 13 metric) reinforcing bars at 8” (200 mm) on center in one direction. No concrete topping is required.

Metal acoustical ceiling panel shall be maximum security double skin metal 0.125” (3.2 mm) thick with perforations.

Metal roof decks shall be a minimum of 12 gauge. No additional reinforcing is required, however the deck must be securely tied to the “high” security walls.

“Medium” security roof/ceiling construction shall be constructed of the following:

Cast-in-place concrete slabs shall be a minimum of 6” (150 mm) thick, 3,000 psi (21 Mpa) concrete with #4 (No. 13 metric) reinforcing bars at 16” (400 mm) on center in one direction. Cast-in-place concrete slabs that are less than 6” (150 mm) thick, but no less than 4” (100

mm) thick shall have a minimum strength of 5,000 psi (35 Mpa) reinforced with W4 (MW26) welded wire fabric at 4” (100 mm) on center in both directions.

Composite metal deck shall be a minimum of 4” (100 mm) total depth, 3,000 psi (21 Mpa) concrete, #4 (No. 13 metric) bars 16” (400 mm) on center in one direction.

Prestressed concrete tees or hollow core slabs shall have a concrete topping to give adequate cover for #4 (No. 13 metric) bars 16” (400 mm) on center in one direction.

Page B-01-6

Solid concrete planks shall have #4 (No. 13 metric) reinforcing bars at 16” (400 mm) on center in one direction. No concrete topping is required.

Metal acoustical ceiling panel shall be maximum security double skin metal 0.125” (3.2 mm) thick with perforations.

Metal roof decks shall be a minimum of 12 gauge. No additional reinforcing is required, however the deck must be securely tied to the “medium” security walls.

“Low” security roof/ceiling construction shall be constructed of the same level of security as “Medium” security described above.

3. Intersections of Horizontal and Vertical Surfaces

Continuity of materials is preferred to facilitate a continuous security enclosure. Where dissimilar materials occur, provide sufficient connections to prevent deflection of materials; or continuously weld deck to a steel member anchored to wall or foundation.

Security bars must be continuous at all intersections; the bars must go around the corners and continue into adjacent slabs or secure ceiling construction.

When this cannot be accomplished, a continuous #4 (No. 13 metric) reinforcing bar shall be cast no more than 1 ½” (38 mm) from the edge of the concrete unit where it meets other concrete or masonry members. These requirements must be coordinated with masonry horizontal reinforcing, and dissimilar concrete materials; i.e. masonry and cast-in-place concrete.

4. Penetrations

Security barriers are required on all penetrations in “high” and “medium” secure walls, floors, and ceilings where opening is larger than 8” x 8” (200 mm x 200 mm) or larger than 5” (125 mm) slit. Security barriers are required on all penetrations 5” (125 mm) wide which exceed 24” (600 mm) in length.

Security barriers shall be constructed of 7/8” (22 mm) diameter round bars or 2” x 2” x ¼” (50 mm x 50 mm x 6 mm) structural steel tubing. Space between bars or tubing shall not exceed 5” (125 mm). Bars longer than 24” (600 mm) shall be reinforced with an intermediate flat bar, 2 ½” x 3/8” (63.5 mm x 9.5 mm), welded to the barrier frame and tack welded to each bar.

The flat stock is installed perpendicular to the bars and at the midpoint of the bars to prevent spreading.

Page B-01-7

Bars on security barriers at central control or housing control must be horizontal (to provide visibility). Bars on all other security barriers must be vertical. Bars on security barriers at central control or housing control are not required to have an intermediate reinforcement at 24” (600 mm).

Where a security barrier in a “high” or “medium” secure wall occurs at a mechanical penetration, refer to Part B, Section 15, Paragraph 8 “Barrier Grilles.”

C. DETENTION CELLS

Detention cells must comply with American Correctional Association (ACA) Standards for Adult Local Detention Facilities (Latest Edition and Supplements). Typical cell layouts for concrete masonry cell construction and precast concrete modular cell construction are shown on Guide Drawings 01-201 through 01-205. Accessible cells shall be provided at the minimum of one for each housing pod, or at least 2% of the total population.

D. ACCESS FOR THE DISABLED

The facility must provide access to the physically disabled, as required by the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) and Americans with Disabilities Act Architectural Guidelines (ADAAG).

1. Detainee areas

Access for the disabled shall be provided in all areas in which detainees use such as program areas, housing units, detainee processing, and health services. However, where several identical spaces are provided, such as a row of housing cells, a row of showers, a row of holding cells, only designated spaces will be provided with special features for the disabled.

Generally, a minimum of quantity of one each and a maximum of 2% of these identical spaces shall be provided.

2. Staff areas

Page B-01-8

Security post staff must be able-bodied and therefore do not require accessible construction for the security post work environment. Other staff areas shall provide facilities for handicap accessibility.

3. Public areas

All public areas shall be provide access to the disabled.

E. STRUCTURAL BUILDING CODES AND STANDARDS

DIVISION 02 SITE CONSTRUCTION

A. SITE PERIMETER

The perimeter of the SPC property shall be delineated by a minimum 6 feet (1800 mm) high non-secure chain link fence with single barbed wire outrigger, or in an urban setting, a 6’ (1800 mm) high concrete masonry fence to block views. This fencing is intended to clearly identify the limitations of the property to the general public. Appropriate fence-mounted signage shall identify US Government Property and specify the penalties for crossing the fence without authorization. A buffer zone of 200 feet (61 meters) shall be provided between the perimeter fence and the primary facility perimeter in order to diminish visual contact between the public and secure sides. In urban areas, where the buffer zone or a separate site perimeter is not attainable, other measures for the security and protection of the facility must be considered. At the site perimeter, maintain openings in the chain link fence for vehicular site access.

B. SITE ACCESS

Access to a rural facility site shall be limited to a main entrance for use by all primary arriving traffic and a secondary site access for use by emergency vehicles only. The main entrance shall be situated from a public road. The secondary access shall be from an alternate location.
