1. Executive Summary

1.1. Introduction

The Tinker AFB Facility Standard (referenced hereafter simply as the Standard) identifies the minimum requirements for construction quality and life safety features for all real property improvements and for all equipment installation projects executed on Tinker Air Force Base.

All projects which permanently attach equipment to real property via hard-wired electrical connections and/or structural anchorage, such as systems furniture installation, hydraulically-operated crane assembly, or repair of existing similar components shall also be subject to compliance with this Standard.

All work encompassed within these categories shall be identified hereafter by the word project or projects as appropriate to the context.

All individuals or companies who provide design and/or construction services for execution of projects on the Base shall be identified hereafter by the word contractor.

1.2. Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR):

The Standard is maintained and annually updated under the authority of the Base Civil Engineer. All questions and recommendations for improvement to this document shall be directed to the 72 ABW/CE.

1.3. Application of the Standard

The Standard applies to Military Construction projects (MCP or MILCON), Simplified Acquisition of Base Engineering Requirements (SABER) projects; Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC); Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts; Utility Energy Service Contract (UESC) delivery orders, Service contracts, Performance Oriented Construction Activity (POCA) projects, Contract By Requestor (CBR) projects, Self Help projects, and AFCEC GSA Contracts. Requirements contained herein shall be applied to all design and/or construction services affecting real property and/or equipment within TAFB, whether designed by 72 ABW/CE, the US Army Corps of Engineers, DLA, HPO, AAFES, NAVFAC, private design consultants, private construction companies, or any other person or business.

1.4. How to use the Standard:

Requirements of the Standard shall be incorporated to design documentation beginning with pre-design and pre-construction services including programming, design analyses, and site planning phases of project designs. The Standard shall be the basis by which all CE approval of projects for Base execution shall be granted or denied.

1.5. TAFB 72 ABW/CE as the Authority-Having-Jurisdiction

All design and construction services executed for the US Air Force and/or any of the Federal organizations residing within TAFB are subject to the review, approval, and inspection of the Base Civil Engineer (BCE) as the local Authority-Having-Jurisdiction. The TAFB Facilities Standard is the principal information source by which BCE project requirements are defined and administered.

1.6. BCE Project Submittal Requirements

As part of the project review process, both hardcopy and electronic documents shall be provided to the BCE by project designers for review prior to the completion of each design stage. All BCE review comments communicated to the project designer which implement requirements of the TAFB Facility Standard shall be incorporated to the Project design prior to the next design phase submittal and prior to issue of any/all drawings and specifications issued for construction.

1.6.1. All Project Drawings and Specifications, for each phase of design required for submittal, shall be delivered in digital format using AutoCAD and MS Word for Windows software for Specifications as identified in Chapter 11, CADD Requirements. The designer shall provide an unbound hard copy suitable for reproduction.

1.6.2. The schedule and number of design submittals shall be in accordance with the design documentation requirements of the project’s contract for construction.

1.7. BCE Function at TAFB

Located within a Federal military installation, the BCE performs the functions of capital improvement programming, urban planning, environmental management, civil and facilities maintenance, maintenance of roads and grounds, air field pavements, air field related lighting, barriers, provision and repair of municipal utilities and community services, and fire protection.

2. TAFB Civil Engineering Records

2.1. Base Maps: TAFB maps in paper format (scale 1 inch to 100 feet are available from the following office:

Engineering Support Division

72 ABW/CE

Second Floor, Building 400 7535 5 th Street

TAFB, OK 73145-9010

2.1.1. Electronic media records of base infrastructure and facility improvements are also available upon written request to the Office of 72 ABW/CE, also at the above street address.

2.2. CE Engineering Vault in B400

2.2.1. The CE Vault is the repository for hardcopy “as-built” drawings for all constructed improvements on base. The Vault, being at full capacity, does not contain all as-built record drawings, since many are in digital format. The archived “Vault” data is the starting point from which 72 ABW/CE personnel plan the continuing program of base maintenance and improvement projects.

Construction contractors use the Vault to find information about utilities and their locations, whereas design consultants use the vault at the beginning of project’s development for determining project proximities to airfield zoning, site constraints, and utility rights-of-way.

2.2.2. Currently, the vault houses approximately 50,000 drawings. Some 30,000 of those are associated with specific facilities while approximately 20,000 are associated with groups of facilities and the overall grounds of Tinker. This inventory includes the runways, aprons, taxiways, and utility services such as electrical, liquid fuel, natural gas, industrial waste, water, and waste water. All Vaulted drawings have been scanned, and are stored on a secure file-server. Available files formats include a mix of AutoCAD, MicroStation, and TIF or PDF files. Customers must present a request to Engineering Support for copies of these files.

2.2.3. Located on the Second Floor in the northwest corner of Building 400, the Vault is open business days 0715-1600 hours to all TAFB personnel and their visitors.

2.3. Vault Research Procedures

2.3.1. First-time visitors please check in at the Customer Support Desk located near the Vault entrance.

Customers must present their requests to Engineering Support, and then allow support personnel time to research the desired information. Typically, Engineering Support provides files to the customer on CD. Hardcopies may be printed upon request. Before entering the Vault, sign-in on the Logbook located just outside the door. This maintains security and accountability for Vault drawings.

2.3.2. After drawings have been selected for copying or scanning to digital files, please ask assistance of Engineering Support personnel on the use of scanner/copier equipment. In most cases this step will not be needed since all drawings have already been scanned. The designer shall be responsible to field verify as-built drawings as the Government does not guarantee their accuracy.

3. Design Criteria
