About this file

This document is a Salient Characteristics specification for the Earhart Track Lighting Project, a supply-only purchase by the 647th Civil Engineer Squadron. The requirement mandates installation of a sports and recreational lighting system at Earhart Track with materials to be provided by the vendor, while military personnel from the 647 CES will execute installation. All materials must meet UFC and electrical code requirements and provide Class 3 illumination for the track and field.

The illumination components include 24 LED flood lights with specific requirements: dimensions not exceeding 15" x 8" x 6.5", input voltage range of 110V to 277V, built-in dusk-to-dawn sensor, 5000K daylight LED output producing 39,000 lumens, 120° beam spread, minimum 70 CRI (80+ preferred), IP65 weatherproofing with aluminum body, 20KV/10KA surge protection, standard hardwired installation capability, and minimum 2-year warranty with 90-day return policy. Structural components include six 50-foot Class 1 wood utility poles manufactured per ANSI O5.1 standards with DCOI pressure treatment per AWPA P8-9A specifications (minimum 0.20 pounds per cubic foot retention), six heavy-duty 10-foot cross-arms rated for 60-80 lbs load capacity with four pre-drilled 9/16" mounting holes, and six complete cross-arm pole-mounting hardware kits featuring hot-dip galvanized components per ASTM A153 standards including 5/8" thru-bolts, flat braces, lag screws, carriage bolts, and 2" x 2" washer plates. Electrical materials include six spools of 10 AWG THWN/XHHW stranded copper wire (500 ft per spool), one roll of SOOW portable cord (250 ft, 10 AWG, 600V, MSHA/OSHA compliant), and numerous conduit and fitting components including Schedule 40 PVC conduit, adapters, couplings, elbows, bushings, straps, and connectors. Additional junction components include 18 six-port multi-tap connectors, 25 split bolt connectors, six weather-resistant galvanized steel junction boxes (10" x 10" x 6"), and 25 liquid-tight cord box connectors with water-tight seals.

SALIENT

CHARACTERISTICS

Earhart Track Lighting Project REQUESTER: 647th Civil Engineer Squadron

1. Rationale of Requirement

The 647th Civil Engineer Squadron has identified a requirement to install a sports and recreational lighting system at the Earhart Track. This is a supply-only purchase of materials necessary for military personnel from the 647 CES to execute the installation. The materials specified below are required to ensure compatibility with existing base infrastructure, meet UFC and electrical code requirements, and provide the mandated Class 3 illumination for the track and field.

2. Physical and Functional Requirements

The vendor shall provide the following materials, which must meet or exceed the minimum essential physical and functional characteristics listed below. "Brand Name or Equal" applies to items where specific manufacturers/standards are identified based on shop requests.

A. Illumination Components

LED Flood Light (Quantity: 24)

• Physical Dimensions: Fixture size must not exceed 15 in. (Length) x 8 in. (Width) x 6.5 in. (Height/Depth) to accommodate cooling, surge, and driver components.

• Voltage: Must feature an input voltage range of 110-Volt to 277-Volt.

• Automation: Built-in dusk-to-dawn sensor to enable automatic on/off operations.

• Output / Color Temperature: Must produce 5000K Daylight LED with 39,000 lumens for superior sports field visibility.

• Beam Spread: Must feature a 120° wide beam angle to adequately cover small-to-medium outdoor courts and tracks.

• Color Rendering Index (CRI): Minimum 70 CRI required (80+ CRI preferred) to restore true colors, making the field fit for amateur games, physical training, and daily operations.

• Durability & Weatherproofing: IP65 dustproof and waterproof rated to resist rain, dust, and harsh outdoor conditions. Must feature a durable aluminum body to ensure structural stability and weather resistance.

• Circuit Protection: Built-in 20KV/10KA surge protection to shield the fixtures against voltage spikes (lightning/circuit surges).

• Installation Method: Must support standard hardwired installation.

• Warranty Support: Minimum 2-year limited warranty with a 90-day return policy for risk-free procurement.

B. Structural Components

Lighting Poles (Quantity: 6)

• Material & Standard: Must be Wood Utility Poles manufactured in accordance with ANSI O5.1 (latest revision).

• Preservative Treatment: Must be pressure treated with DCOI per AWPA P8-9A to a minimum net retention of 0.20 pounds per cubic foot per AWPA U1 for Poles Commodity Specification D, Use Category 4B (designed for heavy ground contact/high decay areas).

• Manufacturing Specs: 50-foot Class 1 utility poles. Minimum circumference: 27 inches at the top, 45 inches at 6 feet from the butt. Minimum diameter: 8.59 inches at the top, 14.32 inches at 6 feet from the butt.

• Preparation: Roof and tag only. No framing and no pre-drilled holes to allow custom field modifications by the installation crew. Must be plant-inspected and brand new.

Cross Arms (Quantity: 6)

• Dimensions & Rating: Must be a heavy-duty, 10-foot (120-inch) long electrical utility cross-arm. Standard cross-section dimensions of 3.75 in. x 4.75 in. Must be rated for heavy-duty structural/distribution use to support the dead-weight of four floodlight fixtures (approx. 60-80 lbs total per arm) and survive local high-wind velocity standards.

• Material: Must be pressure-treated solid wood (treated to AWPA standards compatible with the poles) OR heavy-duty hot-dip galvanized steel structural channel to prevent corrosion.

• Light Mounting Holes: Must feature at least four pre-drilled 9/16-inch mounting holes spaced evenly along the length of the arm to accommodate the standard mounting trunnions/brackets of the 300W LED floodlight fixtures.

Cross-Arm Pole-Mounting Hardware (Quantity: 6 Complete Sets)

• Requirement: The vendor shall provide complete, heavy-duty mounting hardware kits sufficient to securely mount six (6) 10-foot cross-arms onto six (6) Class 1 wood utility poles in a single-arm configuration (one cross-arm per pole). All hardware components must be hot-dip galvanized and meet ASTM A153 corrosion standards for outdoor durability.

• Thru-Bolts: Shall be heavy-duty 5/8-inch diameter hot-dip galvanized steel bolts, complete with matching galvanized hex nuts, sized with sufficient length (minimum 18 inches) to fully penetrate the pole diameter and secure the cross-arm assembly.

• Flat Cross-Arm Braces: Shall be hot-dip galvanized flat steel stabilizing braces sized to form structural support triangles from the pole body to the outer sections of each cross-arm, preventing tilting, sagging, or shifting under wind loads.

• Brace Attachment Fasteners: Shall be galvanized drive/lag screws to secure the base of the braces to the wood poles and matching galvanized carriage bolts to connect the upper ends of the braces securely to each cross-arm.

• Square Washer Plates: Shall be galvanized square curved/flat washer plates (minimum 2-inch x 2-inch) with appropriately sized center holes to distribute mechanical loads evenly across timber surfaces and prevent hardware pull-through under tension.
