About this file
This is an Issued for Construction (IFC) Final Specifications document for the Tinker Air Force Base project WWYK200051, Replace Switchgear, Building 1, prepared by HDR Engineering, Inc. The specifications establish comprehensive technical requirements for the replacement of a 3000-amp, 208-volt switchgear system and include detailed sections covering special inspections, demolition, concrete work, grouting, post-installed anchors, and electrical power system studies. Key requirements include: structural observations by a registered Professional Engineer of Record; qualified Special Inspectors retained as independent third parties to monitor critical construction elements including switchgear base anchorage; demolition and removal of existing equipment with careful salvage and disposal procedures; cast-in-place concrete with 4,000 psi compressive strength and specified air content and slump requirements; non-shrink grouting with 5,000 psi minimum compressive strength; post-installed mechanical and adhesive anchors tested per ACI 355.2 and ACI 355.4 standards with proof load testing of initial installations and 5% random sampling; and comprehensive power system studies including load flow, fault current, coordination, and arc flash hazard analyses prepared by a registered professional electrical engineer with minimum 3 years' experience, with studies to be completed in EasyPower software. All submittals require Government approval (G or S classification), and the specifications reference numerous industry standards including ACI, ASTM, IEEE, NFPA, and DOD UFC standards. The document was issued April 10, 2026, and covers divisions addressing general requirements, existing conditions, concrete, metals, and electrical work.
