About this file

This is a set of technical specifications from Stanley Consultants, Inc. for a Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) HVAC system efficiency upgrade project at the Mark W. Stiles Unit. The project involves replacing six existing gas-fired, chilled water-cooled indoor air handling units, chilled water piping, and gas piping serving Building 12, which comprises six pods (A-F). The work includes connecting new air handlers to existing supply air, return air, outside air duct systems and HVAC controls. Construction must be sequenced so only one mechanical room is under construction at a time, with temporary air conditioning required for affected pods. The specifications include detailed requirements for contractor quality control, temporary facilities and controls, storm water pollution control, and execution requirements.

The specifications outline requirements for submittals, product data, shop drawings, samples, and mock-ups. Key operational requirements include maintaining TDCJ occupancy during construction, minimizing interruptions to operations, and providing temporary services for planned outages exceeding 4 hours. The contractor must provide temporary sanitation facilities for projects over 30 days and a field office for projects over 120 days. The specifications do not include specific pricing terms, set-asides, or funding information, but do detail requirements for quality control staffing, testing, documentation and reporting throughout construction.

2. Applicable to all construction operations, both on-site and off-site, and keyed to construction sequence.

B. Definitions:

1. Control Phases: Defined phases utilized to organize QC inspections and other activities for each Definable Unit of Work within the Quality Control Plan:

Preparatory, Initial, Follow-up.

2. Corrective Action(s): Action(s) required to correct completed work identified to be in Non-conformance, to include:

a. Complete removal and replacement of non-conforming Work, or Action(s) required to correct/prevent recurring Deficiencies.

b. Review by A/E to:

1) Determine the cause of Non-Conformance

2) Evaluate for potential of recurrence.

3) Evaluate potential for significant conditions that may be adverse to quality.

4) Identify Follow-up Action(s) and/or Follow-up Inspection(s) required.

3. Contractor’s Daily Quality Control Report: A Field Inspection Report documenting QC activities and status of such each day.

a. Attach Field Test Reports for subject day.

4. Deficiency: An element of the Work in-progress where damage, unsatisfactory results and/or other discrepancies can be rectified as the work proceeds.

5. Deficiency Notice: Notification of a Deficiency issued upon identification of workmanship or materials etc. found to be out of compliance with Construction Documents by inspection and/or testing.

6. Definable Unit of Work: a portion of the Work, as may be identified as a Feature, Segment, etc. which is separate and distinct from other portions of the Work and has separate control requirements.

Stiles Unit Section 01 45 16.13 - Page 2 of 10 HVAC System Efficiency Upgrades - 12 Bldg. Inmate Housing - Bid MWR #04922011

a. Each section of the Specifications may generally be considered as a Definable Unit of the Work; however, the organization of the Specifications shall not determine the extent or scope of a Definable Unit of the Work.

7. Follow-up Action(s): Action(s) as determined to be required to confirm satisfactory completion of Corrective Action(s) and/or Remedial Action(s).

8. Follow-up Inspection(s): Beginning of Follow-up [Control] Phase, if required. Final Inspections and other actions conducted to confirm satisfactory completion of Follow-up Action(s) prior to the start of subsequent Definable Unit(s) of Work which may be affected by the identified Deficiencies.

9. Initial Inspection: Beginning of Initial [Control] Phase. Required Inspection conducted upon completion of a representative sample of a given feature of the Work (also identified as a Definable Unit of Work), and prior to the start of a new or changed operation.

10. Non-Conformance: Work identified to be in violation of the terms of the Contract, including, but not limited to:

a. Equipment and/or materials received and/or completed items of the Work found to be in noncompliance with contract requirements.

b. Work or material that cannot be corrected and must be replaced.

c. Work that in order to correct it must have a deviation from Construction Documents approved.

d. Work in which an item must be substituted in lieu of that specified in the Construction Documents

11. Notice of Non-Conformance: Notification of Non-Conformance provided in compliance with Construction Documents.

12. Remedial Action: Action(s) required to correct Deficiencies to either provided, but uninstalled elements or other as yet uncompleted Work.

13. Preparatory Meeting: Beginning of an identified Preparatory [Control] Phase.
