About this file

This is a Design-Build Scope of Work (DBSOW) for bathroom and plumbing renovations at Dormitory Building No. 4 of the Old Dominion Job Corps Center in Monroe, Virginia, managed by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).

The scope encompasses design and construction services for bathroom and plumbing system renovations on the first and second floors, including replacement of domestic water and sanitary/vent piping, electrical upgrades, stair railing replacement, and miscellaneous repairs. Specific work areas include Toilet Rooms 114 and 121, Laundry Rooms 115 and 122, Toilet Rooms 212 and 204B, Shower Room 210, and Laundry Room 204A. The contractor must also remove wall-mounted bathroom sinks from second-floor dormitory rooms and conduct associated finish repairs. All work must comply with the Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards (ABAAS), International Building Code (IBC), International Plumbing Code (IPC), Energy Policy Act of 2005, and Job Corps publication JCH-814. The contractor is responsible for conducting asbestos and lead-based paint surveys, with assumed presence of asbestos in 20 elbows at chases; no work may occur within the existing crawl space, and all plumbing must be redesigned to avoid routing through it. The project schedule allocates 56 days for 15% schematic design, 56 days for 60% progress documents, 42 days for 100% final design, and 180 days for construction to substantial completion, with a total project period of 441 calendar days. Submittal requirements include design stages at 15%, 60%, and 100% completion levels, with mandatory on-site presentations and use of the Submittal Exchange© web-based project management system. The contractor must provide quality control testing through independent third-party agencies, protect the facility's roof warranty from 2022, maintain 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. work hours, and coordinate with DOL's Engineering Support Contractor to minimize disruption to center operations, which will continue on the ground floor during construction.

The renovation work involved, but was not limited to, design, demolition and construction for interior dormitory rooms and corridor renovations, asbestos remediation, HVAC and electrical upgrades, and renovation of the ground floor bath/shower rooms and laundry rooms. Ground floor plumbing renovations were completed in the following rooms:

a. Rest Room (G16),

b. Toilet Room (G18)

c. Shower Rooms (G20)

d. Laundry Rooms (G 15B & G 17)

e. Hallway

B. SCOPE INTENT

1. The existing Dormitory Building 4, first and second floor bathrooms have leaking plumbing and piping systems, and fixtures which are in poor condition and requiring replacement.

2. The work includes, but is not limited to, design-build services for bathroom and plumbing renovation work for design, demolition, and new construction on the 1st and 2nd floor. Also includes removal of the 2nd floor dormitory hand sinks, plumbing and electrical work, with associated finish repairs, Stairs A & B railing replacement, and painting.
