STATEMENT OF WORK

FOR

AIRFIELD RUNWAY FRICTION TESTING AT

Seguin, Randolph West, Randolph East and Kelly Airfields at

Joint Base San Antonio, TX

INTRODUCTION. In performing airfield runway friction testing, the United States Air Force follows guidance as published by the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) per FAA AC 150/5320-12C runway friction surveys should be conducted at a minimum of once per year. Friction surveys shall include an evaluation utilizing continuous friction measuring equipment (CFME). A complete survey should include test runs at both 40 miles per hour (mph) and 60 mph within ten feet on both sides of the centerline.

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES. Unless otherwise stated, the Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items necessary to conduct airfield runway friction testing at Joint Base San Antonio Lackland, TX.

1.1 BASIC SERVICE. The Contractor shall perform 12 total runway friction tests per year (one per month from January 2018 to December 2018) as required on Kelly airfield runway 16/34. The

Contractor shall perform 4 total runway friction tests per year (once every 3 months starting in

January 2018 to December 2018) as required on Randolph airfield runway 15R/33L and 15L/33R.

The Contractor shall perform 2 total runway friction tests per year (once every 6 months starting in

January 2018 to December 2018) as required on Seguin airfield runway 13/31. Tests should be conducted at least 27 days but no more than 34 days apart. The friction testing shall be accomplished by a self-wetting CFME as delineated in accordance with AFI 32-1041 and FAA AC 150/5320-12C.

Friction testing is performed along the entire length of the runways. Test runs shall be completed at both 40 mph and 60 mph in each direction within ten feet of the runway centerline. Friction testing is anticipated to be scheduled monthly for the runway but depends on the actual amount of aircraft landings and types of aircraft. The Contractor shall also perform a rubber deposit survey and assign a classification for every 500 feet of longitudinal runway pavement in accordance with Figure 5.1 in

AFI 32-1041. The Contractor shall be responsible for daily clean up at the work site and complete restoration of the area after completion of the work. The Contractor shall provide comprehensive report(s) of the friction testing result(s) within seven (7) calendar days. At a minimum, the report(s) shall include:

1.1.1 Coversheet with Name of the company providing the test, date of the report, location, company contact information (person name, address, website, e-mail, phone number)

1.1.2 State in compliance with … list the regulations this testing meets. Certification of calibration

1.1.3 Training certification

1.1.4 Equipment list of CMFA devise verifying it is listed on the FAA approved CFME Devices

1.1.5 Procedure

1.1.6 Weather and surface conditions (wet, dry, weather related safety NOTAM was posted…)

1.1.7 Date of last rubber removal

1.1.8 Friction testing test results: Average mu values for every 500 feet, Graphical representations of the mu values along the entire length of the runway(s) with an explanation of what the values represent

1.1.9 Additional testing test results

1.1.10 Surface type and condition (groove deterioration, surface deterioration, damaged patches, non-weather safety NOTAM was posted…)

1.1.11 Repair/maintenance recommendations based on guidance contained in FAA AC 150/5320-12C.

Rubber Removal recommended frequency.

1.2 ADDITIONAL TESTING: Additional testing (slope measurements, Texture measurements) should be accomplished once per year per runway (4 runways) in compliance with IAW AFI 32-104 and results included in the comprehensive report(s) as described in paragraph 1.1

1.2.1 Additional testing shall include slope and texture measurements. Slope measurements shall be made in both the transverse and longitudinal direction for every 500 feet. Transverse slope measurements shall be taken at approximately five (5) and fifteen (15) feet from the centerline on both sides of the centerline, and the longitudinal measurements taken on the centerline. Slopes shall be measured with a 10-foot level and recorded to the nearest 0.1 percent. Texture measurements shall be conducted at least three times for every pavement surface type (e.g.

grooved asphalt, un-grooved Portland cement concrete, etc.) with an outflow meter in accordance with ASTM E2380/E2380M – 15. Additionally, hydroplaning potential shall be reported in accordance with the following table based on the mean average of the three outflow measurements for every section tested:

Dynamic Hydroplaning Potential Low Low-Medium Medium Medium-High High

Outlfow Meter Time (sec.) < 2 2 to 5 5 to 20 20 to 80 > 80

1.3 UNAVOIDABLE DELAYS. The Government shall make every attempt to schedule the airfield friction testing as a one day event with all concerned parties. In the event that friction testing may carry over into an additional day, the Contractor shall be required to remain in the local area until field testing is complete. Time constraints or unusual conditions such as unexpected mission requirements, unforeseen heavy rubber removal workload, rubber removal equipment failure, unexpected weather condition, etc.

shall be valid reasons for an extended stay. Lackland’s Kelly Airfield is open 24 hours per day 7 days per week and will remain open for all testing. There is a reduction in traffic between (0001) 12:01 am and

(0400) 4:00 am if a hard closure is required. Do not attempt friction testing during Barrier testing typically from (0600) 6:00 am to (0800) 8:00 am.

1.4 CONTRACTOR NOTIFICATION / RESPONSE. Friction testing is anticipated to be scheduled monthly for the runway but depends on the amount of aircraft landings and types of aircraft. The

Contractor shall be given a thirty (30) day notice prior for the required airfield friction test event. The

Contractor shall report for the airfield runway friction testing upon the agreed to date and time with no exceptions.

2.0 SERVICE SUMMARY. The corresponding “Performance Threshold” briefly describes the minimum acceptable levels of service required for each objective--these thresholds are critical to success.

The listed “Performance Thresholds” are the Government’s acceptable tolerances of Contractor performance and represent the limits of “acceptable work”. Any Contractor performance that does not meet or exceed these thresholds shall be considered “unacceptable work”. Any unacceptable work performed by the Contractor must be corrected by the Contractor within specified timeframes set forth in the statement of work. Re-performance is the preferred method of correcting “unacceptable work”.
