ALL EXISTING PORTS ARE BEING REPLACED ON THIS PROJECT. DEMO

SHEETS HAVE NOT BEEN PROVIDED UNLESS WALL REVISIONS ARE

REQUIRED. EXISTING WORK AREA OUTLETS WITH (3) OR (4) EXISTING

DATA PORTS SHALL BE REDUCED AND PROVIDED WITH (2) NEW

PORTS/(2) NEW CAT 6A CABLES. COORDINATED WITH OWNER PRIOR TO

REDUCTION AT EACH LOCATION.

WHILE ALL POSSIBLE DUE DILIGENCE WAS PERFORMED THE BIDDERS

ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A 10% ALLOWANCE FOR NEW DATA PORTS.

ALL DEVIATIONS FROM THE DESIGN DOCUMENTS FOR LOCATIONS AND

QUANTITIES OF DATA PORTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE VERIFIED BY THE VA

COR AND A/E. AS AN EXAMPLE, IF 100 DATA DROPS WERE IDENTIFIED AND

DOCUMENTED IN A BUILDING, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL BID 110 DATA

DROPS AND CABLE, CONNECTION, TESTING, AND LABELING FOR THAT

BUILDING. DURING THE COURSE OF THE INSTALLATION THE

CONTRACTOR SHALL IDENTIFY ANY ADDITIONAL DATA PORTS AND ANY

DATA DROPS NOT FOUND TO ENSURE THE AGGREGATE SUM IS

CAPTURED IN THE RECORD DRAWINGS AND THE OWNER HAS AN

ACCURATE COUNT AT THE END OF THE PROJECT.

NO IN-WALL CONDUIT DEMOLITION SHALL OCCUR, ONLY OUTLETS AND

CABLE TO BE REPLACED. CONTRACTOR TO UTILIZE EXISTING CONDUIT IN

ALL LOCATIONS WHERE CABLES ARE BEING REPLACED. WHERE NO

EXISTING CONDUIT EXISTS, CONTRACTOR TO UTILIZE SURFACE

MOUNTED WIREWAY SIZED TO SUPPORT NEW CAT 6A AND NOT EXCEED

40% FILL.

THIS STATION ESTIMATES THAT 50% OF THE EXISTING IN-WALL CABLING

IS LOOSE AND NOT IN CONDUIT. TO MEET THE EHRM REQUIREMENT THAT

ALL NEW CABLE BE IN CONDUIT, CONTRACTOR SHALL INSTALL NEW

CAT6A CABLING TO EXISTING WAOs IN NEW SURFACE MOUNTED

RACEWAYS WHEN NO EXISTING CONDUIT IS LOCATED. CABLE, RACEWAY,

FIBER, AND CABLETRAY QUANTITIES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED ON THE

T-700 SERIES SCHEDULES.

OUTSIDE GRIDLINE TO OUTSIDE GRIDLINE) AS SHOWN.

DIMENSIONS FOR NON-LOAD BEARING WALLS ARE TO ONE FACE OF THE STUDS, BOTH FACES OF

MASONRY WALLS, OR BOTH FACES OF CONCRETE WALLS, ETC, UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE.

WALL DIMENSIONS ARE ACTUAL, NOT NOMINAL (UNLESS NOTED AS "NOM").

DOOR OPENING DIMENSIONS IN FRAME CONSTRUCTION (WOOD OR STEEL STUDS) ARE TYPICALLY

SHOWN AT THEIR CENTERLINES. HOWEVER, WHEN THE EDGE OF THE DOOR IS IMPORTANT, OR

MAKES THE PLACEMENT CLEARER, THE DIMENSION MAY BE TO THE ACTUAL FRAME EDGE.

DOOR DIMENSIONS IN LOAD-BEARING MASONRY AND CONCRETE WALLS ARE TO "ROUGH"

OPENINGS (FACES OF MASONRY OR CONCRETE). TYPICAL DOOR ROUGH OPENING DIMENSIONS

ARE THE FRAME WIDTH PLUS 1/2" (1/4" CLEARANCE EACH SIDE) AND PLUS 1/2" TOTAL FOR THE

HEAD/SILL DIMENSIONS.

"TYPICAL" DOOR FRAME CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS TO ADJACENT WALLS: BETWEEN FRAME FACES

AND FACES OF STUDS, OR FACES OF MASONRY OR CONCRETE, AT NEARBY PERPENDICULAR

WALLS ARE TYPICALLY 4", DEPENDING ON HARDWARE CLEARANCES AND FRAME REQUIREMENTS

KEEP DUCTS AND HVAC EQUIPMENT CLEAN, DRY, AND FREE OF DUST AND DEBRIS DURING CONSTRUCTION. CLEAN DUCTS

BEFORE OCCUPANCY.

ASK THE HVAC CONTRACTOR TO CREATE A PLAN LISTING HOW THEY WILL PROTECT THE DUCTS AND EQUIPMENT DURING

INSTALLATION.

INSPECT DUCTS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION TO ENSURE THEY DON’T CONTAIN OIL OR DEBRIS.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION STORE DUCTS AND MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT IN A CLEAN, DRY ENVIRONMENT. WRAP THE

EQUIPMENT WITH PLASTIC IF NECESSARY TO KEEP OUT DUST.

AVOID OPERATING THE HVAC SYSTEM DURING CONSTRUCTION TO PREVENT DUST FROM BEING PULLED INTO THE

SYSTEM. DO NOT RUN HVAC EQUIPMENT WHILE DRY-WALLING, SANDING, OR SAWING.

MAINTAIN A CLEAN WORK AREA BY SWEEPING AND VACUUMING THROUGHOUT CONSTRUCTION.

AFTER INSTALLATION AND BEFORE OPERATION, COVER HVAC AIR HANDLERS AND DUCT REGISTERS OR DUCT OPENINGS WITH PLASTIC UNTIL CONSTRUCTION (INCLUDING INSTALLATION OF FLOORING, CARPETS, CABINETRY, AND FINISH CARPENTRY) IS COMPLETED. IF REGISTERS HAVE NOT BEEN INSTALLED YET, COVER THE DUCT OPENINGS WITH

PLYWOOD FOR SAFETY.

AFTER CONSTRUCTION IS COMPLETE AND BEFORE OPERATING HVAC, CLEAN THE DUCTS USING A VACUUM AND PNEUMATIC BRUSHING SYSTEM MADE FOR DUCT CLEANING. DO NOT USE WET SOLUTIONS OR ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT

SYSTEMS.

AFTER CLEANING DUCTS, RUN THE CENTRAL FURNACE OR AIR HANDLER WITH A FILTER INSTALLED. REPLACE THE FILTER

BEFORE OCCUPANCY.
