Instron E-1 04 07 2026.pdf

This is an architectural and mechanical plan for Building #5, 126 Instron Installation at a US Army Labor Center Work Facility. The document outlines construction and installation requirements for relocating and installing a new Instron machine within the facility.

The plan specifies several key installation requirements: furnishing and installing a 20A, 208V, 3-phase, 4-wire twist-lock receptacle on the wall for new instrumentation; installing a new 3P, 20A circuit breaker in Panelboard "A" with associated wiring; and providing an air regulator, water separator, and 1.5" copper line to the new instrument. The existing ceiling (10'8" x 132"W mounted at 118" above floor) must be removed and raised to 132" above floor, with surrounding walls extended 18" to support the new ceiling height, which shall match existing vapor/humidity-proof specifications. Lighting and sprinklers require relocation to accommodate the increased ceiling height. The existing Instron machine must be carefully removed and relocated to the warehouse. Existing 72" x 48" benches may require removal to accommodate the new installation. The smaller existing Instron 2 machine shall remain, with the contractor responsible for relocating it during construction and returning it to its original position upon completion. The new Instron machine will be moved from the warehouse to Lab 126 and positioned at Keynote 1, in one piece, with the contractor responsible for setup and commissioning coordination with the government vendor.
