6 |R1 autonumlgl SCOPE

This appendix establishes the minimum performance, design, fabrication, installation, and test requirements for a mechanical-assist, mobile storage system for the 33rd Fighter Wing, in AMU Building 1417 at Eglin Air Force Base, FL. The work shall be completed in accordance with this appendix, the Cover Purchase Description (PD), and Air Force (AF) drawings AEG0D0-01 and AEG0D0-02. This appendix covers all equipment, materials, and labor necessary to complete installation of the system.

autonumlgl APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS

Applicable documents shall be in accordance with Section 2 of the cover PD.

autonumlgl REQUIREMENTS autonumlgl SystemS description The Mobile Storage System shall be utilized to store aircraft parts and individual issued equipment. The mobile storage system shall be installed as specified in the Cover PD, Para 3.1.1. Property for the mobile storage system will be manually picked. The system shall be located as shown on AF Drawing AEG0D0-01 and shall consist of the following components:

a. Carriages, including drive trains

b. Stationary platforms

c. Shelving

d. Controls

e. Rails

f. Elevated flooring

g. Ramps

i. Safety devices

j. Mechanical fasteners, anchors, and all other items required to install the mobile storage system.

autonumlgl Performance and physical characteristics autonumlgl System operation

Each carriage shall have a crank mechanism on one end, which shall be turned manually clockwise or counterclockwise to move the carriage in the desired direction. No more than five pounds of force on the crank shall be required to move a fully loaded carriage.

autonumlgl Carriages

Carriages shall consist of a frame and drive train, upon which shelving units shall be installed. These carriages shall move as required after the appropriate crank is turned. All carriages shall be capable of supporting a minimum load of 1,000 pounds per carriage foot. No system component shall deflect greater than 0.5 percent of the distance between supports when fully loaded. No component shall exhibit permanent deformation after the maximum load has been removed.

autonumlgl Frame

The frame shall consist of aluminum or steel channel, welded or bolted together to support a fully loaded shelving section. Cross bracing shall ensure rigidity. Bumpers shall be mounted on the frame, spaced appropriately to minimize carriage contact. The frame shall be designed for an integral drive train.

autonumlgl Drive chain

Drive chain shall connect a set of gear reduction sprockets from the crank shaft to the drive shaft.

autonumlgl Drive shafts

Drive shafts shall be made of steel and have a minimum diameter of 1 inch. Splices or connections to other sections of the drive shaft, drive wheels, and gears shall be slotted for key joints or use shoulder bolts. Drive shafts shall run through pillow block or flanged bearings on either side of the drive wheel. Slave drive shafts shall be driven by use of sprockets and chain from the main drive shaft.

autonumlgl Bearings

Bearings shall have a static load rating equal to or greater than the maximum bearing loading, including applicable safety factors, under all operating conditions. Bearings shall be permanently lubricated, securely mounted, and properly housed for protection from physical damage.

autonumlgl Wheels

Each carriage shall have two wheels per rail. Each carriage shall have at least two drive wheels and at least two guide wheels (drive wheels may also act as guide wheels). All wheels shall be balanced, hardened steel. Wheels which are connected to the drive shaft shall be slotted for key joints. Wheels shall be capable of supporting the fully loaded carriage. Wheels shall not slide or lose contact with the rail.

autonumlgl Guidance system

All carriages shall use flanged wheels or guide bearings for guidance over the rails. If flanged wheels are used, each carriage shall have a minimum of two flanged guide wheels. If guide bearings are used, then each carriage shall have a minimum of four sets of guide bearings. Guide bearings shall be precision machined and permanently lubricated.

autonumlgl Stationary platform

Stationary platform shall be of the same construction and height as the carriages, but they shall be anchored to the rails or floor and require no drive train.

autonumlgl Shelving sections

Shelving used to store aircraft parts and small items which conforms to the requirements of Appendix D shall be bolted to the carriages and stationary platforms as shown on AF Drawing AEG0D0-01.

autonumlgl Face panels Fire retardant press or particle board, decorative, framed face panels shall be fastened to both ends of all the shelving sections. Press or particle board shall be laminated on the exposed side. Face panels shall provide a rigid mounting location for controls and card holders. Laminated face panels shall cover the entire width and height of the shelving sections. No fastening devices shall be exposed.

autonumlgl Row identification Card holders shall be installed on the face panels for row identification. Two card holders shall be mounted on each face panel. The card holders shall be at least five inches wide by three inches high and mounted at eye level so that operators can locate numbers easily. Row identification cards will be made up by the warehouse personnel according to their established location assignment practices. A blank card will be provided by the Contractor for each card holder.

autonumlgl Rail Installation

The carriages shall move over minimum one inch high, steel rail assemblies. After leveling the rails, load bearing grout shall be used to fill in any gaps between the rail assemblies and the existing floor. Rails shall be installed no more than five feet apart and be equally spaced apart, except for the ends of the carriage. Rails shall be set back far enough from the ends of the carriage to prevent the ramps from extending into the aisle. The distance from the ends of the carriages to the nearest rail shall not exceed 18 inches.

autonumlgl End stops

End stops shall be installed to prevent the end carriages from running off the rails. These end stops shall be securely anchored to the rail or the floor.

autonumlgl RAIL SKIRTS

Rail skirts shall be installed to cover the unfinished edges of the floor, rail, and ramp.

autonumlgl Elevated flooring

Elevated flooring shall be constructed of fire retardant plywood panels, which are able to support a load of 75 pounds per square foot. Flooring shall be sized to fit between the rails, level with the top of the rails, in order to provide a safe walking surface for personnel. Adjacent sheets of sub flooring shall be shimmed along the full length of the common side. The flooring shall be Resindek or Government approved equivalent. Resindek flooring is a special blend of phenolic resin, wax emulsion, and wood fibers combined under heat and pressure. The flooring shall have an exterior sealant. The sealant shall be Acryseal or equivalent.

autonumlgl RAMPS

The ramp to the main aisle shall permit easy access by base personal. Metal ramps shall be provided on one side of the system. The ramps shall not extend past the end of the carriages into the aisles. The grade on the ramp shall not exceed 10 percent. The elevated flooring can be extended to the wall to eliminate the need for a second ramp.

autonumlgl Safety devices autonumlgl Anti-movement lock

Each carriage shall be equipped with a mechanism which will lock the carriage in place while the operator is in the aisle.

autonumlgl QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS autonumlgl Inspections

The system shall be inspected to verify that it meets all the requirements of sections 1, 2, and 3 of this appendix and the cover purchase description. These inspections shall be completed as part of the systems checkout test and again as a part of the quality conformance test.

autonumlgl Tests

The following tests shall be performed on the system as part of the system checkout test and again as a part of the quality conformance test.

autonumlgl CertificationS R1 The Contractor shall provide certification that the following requirements have been met. All certifications shall be provided in accordance with the Contract Data Requirements List.
