WORK FOR

B678 ALRE MATERIALS LABORATORY EXPANSION

CONSTRUCTION

JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, NEW JERSEY

1.0. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES. This construction project includes demolition, new addition construction, and incidental related work at building 678 on Joint Base McGuire-Dix- Lakehurst (JB MDL), New Jersey.

1.1. BASIC SERVICES. The laboratory expansion at building 678 is a new construction requirement for JB MDL, New Jersey. The work includes demolition, new addition construction, and incidental related work and will consist of areas that are typical of administrative space. The design will include a courtyard space to enhance daylighting and provide open-air break space for occupants. The addition will be designed to complement the existing facility.

There are three (3) bid options for this requirement. They are as follows:

Bid Option 01 - Circle Drive Bid Option 02 - Addition of South Open Office Bid Option 03 - Existing Parking Lot Re-Striping and Sealing

Descriptions of bids are as follows:

Base Bid: The Project Base Bid is to construct a 10,569 SF Materials laboratory Expansion. The expansion will be a single story administrative addition to the existing Bldg 678 Lab, matching in character and details and in compliance with Installation Facilities Standards. Goal being to consolidate all administration into the new addition space. Reference drawings and specifications.

Bid Option 1 - Circle Drive: Installation of a new bituminous drop off round about and concrete sidewalk located adjacent to the new addition. Reference drawings and specifications.

Bid Option 2 - Addition of South Open Office: Increases the footprint of the Base Bid to the south by 2,353 SF and includes additional Administrative type space. Reference drawings and specifications.

Bid Option 3 - Existing Parking Lot Re-Striping and Sealing: Existing parking lot and drives restriping and sealing. Existing parking lot and drives to remain and shall be Gilsonite sealed and repaired within the area noted on drawings. All striping shall be thermoplastic within the Bid Option area, match existing striping locations and incorporate any noted changes. Reference drawings and specifications.

The Laboratory Expansion will provide administrative space for 61 personnel. If Bid Option 02, Addition of South Open Office, is executed, the personnel count will grow an additional 35 personnel, for a total of 96 personnel. Administrative functions will require private offices for supervisors, large open office space for “high grade” personnel, “standard” open office cubicles, and “hotel” task stations for desk- sharing personnel. Support spaces will include breakout rooms for small group meetings; a break area with seating, vending and kitchen space; print areas; a large conference room; locker space;

restrooms; a lactation room; a storage room; a recycle room; and utility rooms. The exterior is designed to be compatible with the existing facility façade. The addition implements the two-color brick banding at the pilasters and the sloped soldier course red brick sills to grade. The windows are consistent with the existing facility but include an eight (8) foot header height to provide a more open interior environment. The design for the new west entrance will include a steel bow-string truss with metal roof similar to the existing entry element on the main quad entry. A courtyard is provided to improve daylighting to the interior spaces of the addition and courtyard. The existing brick pilaster will remain. This is a functional design decision as the existing brick façade creates issues when the addition abuts the existing facility.

The new exterior walls that make up the courtyard will include a brick façade with storefront glazing. The storefront will extend to the ground on the north and south elevations. This will visually open the space and promote the use of the courtyard. The color of the metal panel will be Wheatsheaf, which is compatible with the existing facility's Exterior Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFS) color.

1.1.1. OCCUPANCY OF PREMISES. The main building will be occupied during the additions construction. Before work is started, arrange with the Contracting Officer (CO) a sequence of procedure, means of access, space for storage of materials and equipment, and use of the building and premises.

1.1.2. DEMOLITION. Select demolition will be required where the addition abuts to the existing facility. No significant demolition will be required within the existing facility to complete the project. Demolition may be required on the existing standing seam metal roof at the existing entry as part of the bid options. Demolition to site and pavement is required. Existing pavements, fire water, storm sewer, and domestic water will need to be removed from the construction area to make room for the expansion. Site lighting poles will be removed and relocated as required for construction.

Handicap parking spots, symbols, signs, and wheel stops will be moved west in the existing parking lot.

1.1.3. PAST SURVEYS/INVESTIGATIONS. The project has completed a geotechnical investigation for the facility expansion and included percolation testing for an existing water quality facility that may require expansion. The project has completed a field survey that included locating government owned utility lines. The survey was executed the week of November 16, 2020. The site does not contain wetlands or streams, historically significant areas or areas with endangered species.

The site is not within a 100-year flood plain.

1.1.4. BACKGROUND. The laboratory expansion at building 678 is a new construction requirement.

This project will add/alter the existing facility with approximately 12,922 square feet of new facility space. The expansion is to the west and will require removal of existing drive aisle and parking spaces to construct along with water and fire water relocation.
