i. Optimize Site Potential: Creating sustainable buildings starts with proper site selection, including consideration of the reuse or rehabilitation of existing buildings. The location, orientation, and landscaping of a building affects the local ecosystem, transportation methods, and energy use

00 22 13.00 - Page 8

ii. Minimize Energy Consumption: A building should rely on optimizing system efficiencies and employing conservation measures. Renewable energy technologies should be used in facility projects whenever feasible and cost effective. New facilities should meet or exceed current Air Force energy performance goals.

iii. Protect and Conserve Water: Fresh water in an increasingly scarce resource near many of our bases. A sustainable building should reduce, control or treat site runoff, use water efficiently, and implement as many Federal energy Management Program Water Efficiency Improvement Best management Practices as practicable.

iv. Use environmentally preferable products: Buildings should be constructed of materials that minimize lifecycle environmental impacts such as global warming, resource depletion, and toxicity. In a materials context, life cycle includes raw materials acquisition, product manufacturing, packaging, transportation, installation, use and ultimate disposal.

v. Enhance indoor environmental quality (IEQ): The IEQ of a building has a significant impact on occupant health, comfort, and productivity. Among other attributes, a building should optimize day-lighting, be well ventilated, control moisture, and avoid the use of materials with high-VOC emissions.

vi. Optimize Operational and Maintenance Practices: Buildings should be designed to take into account the energy and environmental impacts of operating and maintaining the building.

Designers are encouraged to specify materials and systems that reduced maintenance requirements, and/or require less water, energy and toxic chemicals to maintain.

f. LEEDTM Green Building Rating System: The United States Green Building Council’s (USGBC)

“Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEEDTM) Green Building Rating System” is the Air Force preferred self-assessment metric. The “Air Force amendment” has been created to make the LEEDTM system a more comprehensive tool for Air Force use. The Air Force amendment adds five prerequisites that represent existing regulatory requirements, and proposes three innovation credits that are particularly relevant for Air Force facilities. However, the total number of points available and the scoring criteria remain identical to the basic LEEDTM system. The LEEDTM system with the Air Force amendment shall be used for both design guidance and assessment, to evaluate the overall quality of the design effort. The design shall meet the certified level, at a minimum. The design effort shall seek out integrated design solutions that provide the best value for the Air Force, and do not increase the overall cost of the project beyond the available budget.

g. LEED Certification with the USGBC: Submission of project documentation to the USGBC for official LEEDTM certification is required for this project if so stated in the scope of work. If required, the project must obtain minimum LEED Silver Certification. However, the A/E shall provide documentation of design decisions as required in the Sustainable Design Report, and a LEED score shall be submitted to the Air Force based on the team’s self-assessment of the project.

h. Integrated Design: An integrated design process shall be employed for this design effort, to provide the best value solution for the Air Force. It is the responsibility of the A/E to ensure that the conceptual design and design development process benefits from the input of the full A/E team representing planning, site design, civil engineering, architecture, MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) engineering, and interior design; user representatives, base civil engineer, Air Force project manager, facilities manager, and cost engineer. The conceptual design charrette shall be attended by design professionals and Air Force facilities staff representing all disciplines. The charrette process shall be

00 22 13.00 - Page 9 followed by a series of full team design and coordination sessions as the design is developed and finalized.

i. Sustainable Design Reports: Sustainable design reports are a requirement of this contract. These reports provide the Air Force with documentation that enables project managers to track the design effort as it is progressing. The A/E is responsible for preparing a Sustainable Design report at the end of Concept Design, and at the end of the Design Development/Documentation phase. Drafts of the Sustainable Design report must be submitted with the drawing and specification submittals at 30%, 60% and 90% complete phases. Unless stated otherwise, the Sustainable Design Report documenting construction phase issues shall be completed by the construction contractor. Outlines describing the content required are included as an attachment to this Scope of Work.

j. Energy Analysis: Energy analysis is a requirement of this contract if so noted in the scope of work. This service can be provided either by the Mechanical Engineer responsible for design and documentation of systems, or by an energy analysis consultant. It is the responsibility of the A/E to ensure that the findings from the energy analysis are well integrated into the design effort, and are used to inform decisions about site planning, architectural envelope design, lighting, and mechanical systems. Energy modeling requirements include the following:

1) Creation of base case energy model: The base case model serves as a point of comparison for evaluating design options. It represents a building that is minimally compliant with ASHRAE 90.1-2007 / 10CFR 434. Use eQuest (DOE-2) software at http://www.doe2.com/equest.

2) Characterization of energy use: Energy use characterization gives the team an understanding of where energy is being used in the facility, and where the greatest savings are possible. This information is presented in pie charts that describe energy cost and energy consumption by end use (e.g. heating, cooling, plug loads, ventilation, etc.)

3) Development of energy conserving measures (ECM's): ECM’s are developed and evaluated to provide an estimate of the potential impact on energy use and peak load for each.

4) Energy analysis of at least 3 preferred schemes: The individual ECM’s are bundled together to produce at least 3 scheme options. Each of the scheme options is then modeled so the interaction between the various measures can be understood.

5) Revised energy runs: As the design is refined and finalized, revised energy runs are needed to track the energy performance as the design. Up to three revised energy runs are included in the basic energy modeling scope.

k. Life Cycle Cost Analysis:

1) Life cycle cost analysis shall be used as a design tool to ensure that the design provides the best value to the Air Force. Life cycle cost analysis evaluates investment cost (first cost), utility costs (energy, water use, wastewater disposal), operation and maintenance costs, and

00 22 13.00 - Page 10 periodic replacement costs. For more information on how to conduct life cycle cost analysis for the federal government see: 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 436, Part A, Federal Energy Management and Planning Programs, Subpart 1 – Methodology and Procedure for Life Cycle Cost Analyses and Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on Criteria/Standards for Economic Analyses/Life Cycle Costing for MILCON Design, March 1996.

2) Unless otherwise stated by Air Force Instructions, all dollar amounts shall be estimated in constant dollars, with a discount rate of 7 percent. The actual price of energy at the time the study is conducted shall establish the “base-year” energy cost. The study period for a new facility design or retrofit should not exceed the lesser of 25 years, or the period of intended use of the facility. For a leased facility it should not exceed the lesser of 25 years or the effective remaining term of the lease.

3) Life cycle cost analysis is recommended to guide the following decisions:

i. High performance building envelope: Test options that create a high performance envelope including high performance glazing, insulation (beyond code required levels), overhangs for sun control, light shelves, etc. Evaluate savings in energy consumption and potential reductions in the cost of mechanical systems that may result. Also consider maintenance and periodic replacement costs of these options.

ii. Energy efficient lighting: Test options that utilize day lighting, energy efficient electric lighting, task-ambient lighting and lighting controls such as daylight dimming and occupancy sensors. Evaluate savings in energy consumption and potential reductions in the cost of mechanical systems that may result. Also consider maintenance and periodic replacement costs of these options.

iii. Mechanical system selection: Test a minimum of three different system options to determine the relationship between first cost and life cycle value. Consider operating costs, maintenance and periodic replacement costs of these options.

iv. Materials durability: Test a minimum of three options for building cladding and roofing to determine the relationship between first cost and life cycle value.

Consider operating costs, maintenance and periodic replacement costs of these options.

l. Green Procurement: Federal Statutes and regulations require all Federal Agencies to consider the use of

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) designated recovered content items and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) designated biopreferred product categories for every procurement.

m. Comprehensive Interior Design: (CID) which includes both the Structural Interior Design (SID) and Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) design services, will be developed and coordinated with the architectural design in accordance with applicable design guides, the project delivery process and project scope of work.

1) Design and review must be accomplished by, or in consultation with, professional/certified interior designers or architects with significant interior design experience. Qualification of designers is based on education, experience and examination.

Interior designers or architects will have completed a recognized program of academic training in interior design; and have attained registration or licensure.

2) Designers must be concerned with designing an environment that is comfortable, welcoming and conducive to work or other prescribed activity. Contributing factors include proper HVAC, lighting, acoustics and furnishings. Acoustic design issues include speech privacy, sound isolation or sound masking.

3) Designers will incorporate methods of way finding through the facility, including the development of an interior signage package, using color and patterns as applicable.

These design components will form a well-organized, comprehensible interior environment that guides users and visitors through the building to their destinations. Refer to UFC 3-120-01, Air Force Sign Standard.

4) Designers must incorporate sustainable design in the selection of materials and in the promotion of interior environmental quality. Projects must achieve designated LEED ratings. Sustainable or “green” design elements must be considered on all projects.

Designers will evaluate furnishings and finish materials containing recycled product and materials that can be recycled at the “end of their useful life”. This concept, which is “cradle to cradle” handling of materials, is the preferable choice because it eliminates a waste stream. For example, some manufacturers’’ carpeting products are made from recycled materials and then those manufacturers provide recycling of that carpeting at the end of its useful life whereby the old material is recycled into new carpeting material.

Whenever possible, use sustainable principles when choosing interior finishes and materials, furnishings and equipment.

5) Designers will determine the appropriate interior finish materials as well as the conceptual furniture layout. Ensure architectural and engineering disciplines are coordinated with interior design components. Furnishings layouts and locations of built-in equipment must be considered during the placement of lighting, power and communication receptacles, electrical/fire protection panels, sprinklers, etc. During furniture layout and selection, the designers will coordinate building elements such as power sources, ceiling heights, column placement, lighting, wall switches, thermostats, alarm panels, window placement, etc during design development through the final submittals.
