SUMMARY OF WORK
08/15
PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.1.1 Project Description
The U.S. Army Joint Base Myer Henderson Hall (JBMHH) is undertaking a JBMHH Army Family Housing (AFH) Renovation Program. For the purposes of the Program, the buildings are organized stylistically into groups:
Quarters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 (Group 1) and Quarters 23, 24, 25, 26, and 27 (Group 5) at Fort McNair, all of which are proposed to undergo interior renovation and exterior repair to bring these houses back into good repair. The work includes 11 historical family housing units located at Fort McNair. Over the years, the units have deteriorated due to age and lack of proper maintenance. In addition, repair work has resulted in the loss of historical preservation, inadequate floor plans, excessive square footage, and lack of energy efficiencies. The scope of this work is to renovate these homes to replace all infrastructure and to bring the homes up to current living standards. These homes are broken down into two Groups (Group 1 and 5) then by Quarters (1-6, 23-27). There will be base and options outlined in the design documents. Group 1 Quarters 1 & 2 along with Group 5 Quarters 23 - 27 are all Base Build. Group 1 Quarters 3 - 6 are to be considered options.
Groups 1 and 5 were designed in the Colonial Revival style: Group 1 as single-family residences and Group 5 as duplex residences. The buildings were designed by McKim, Mead, & White and constructed between 1903 and 1905, with Quarters 27 (Group 5) completed in 1908. The Group 1 single-family residences are located on the northwest corner of the parade ground, on the west side of 2nd Avenue and the east side of 1st Avenue south of B Street. The Group 5 duplex residences are located on the northeast corner of the parade ground, on the east side of 4th Avenue and the west side of 5th Avenue south of B Street. All of these buildings are within the boundaries of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP)-eligible Fort Lesley J. McNair Historic District (Attachment 1, Maps). The buildings have remained in residential use through the present.
Over the years, Groups 1 and 5 have undergone differing levels of interior and exterior alteration and renovation. Recently, all the Army Family Housing (AFH) at JBMHH was identified to undergo thorough repair and renovation that preserves the historic aspects of the AFH and their settings, improves energy efficiency, complies with state and federal building, fire, and safety codes, meets environmental and sustainability criteria, and meets the current UFC 4-771-02A Army Family Housing Supplement Draft 2013 for a period of at least 25 years.
JBMHH has conducted reviews in accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
JBMHH has documented the AFH for NEPA and determined that no significant impacts on the human environment would occur. Under Section 106 of the NHPA, numerous agencies and parties have consulted to identify actions to avoid, minimize, and mitigate adverse effects on historic properties. In order to facilitate these efforts, the following outlines approaches for addressing changes to the Quarters.
01 11 00 - 1
The exteriors and interiors of the Groups 1 and 5 residences are divided into three zones of historical significance: Zone 1 is "Primary Historical Significance," Zone 2 is "Secondary Historical Significance," and Zone 3 is "Not Historically Significant." The historical significance of the following elements for the Group 1 residences are outlined in the table below and identified on Sheet G-301:
Zone 1
The entire exterior envelope, including porches, exterior stairs, roof, and roof elements
The entry hall and foyer stair up to the second-floor landing
The office
The living and dining rooms
Zone 2
The rear interior stairway
The kitchen and butler's pantry
The interiors of the first and second floors of the enclosed rear porches
All of the interiors of the second and third floors
Zone 3 All basements and crawlspaces under the front and rear porches (all buildings)
The historical significance of the following elements for the Group 5 residences are outlined in the table below and shown on Sheet G-302:
Zone 1
The entire exterior envelope, including porches, exterior stairs, roof, and roof elements (except for the exterior elevations of the previously renovated rear porches)
Zone 2
The exterior elevations of the previously renovated rear porches
All of the interiors of the first, second, and third floors
Zone 3 All basements and crawlspaces under the front and rear porches (all buildings)
The purpose of zoning the buildings is to define overarching treatments and approaches, as well as significant details and character-defining features requiring preservation. Where significant details and
01 11 00 - 2 character-defining features will be retained, they will be indicated in the scopes of work below.
1.1.2 Location
The work is located on Fort McNair, Washington, DC. The exact location will be shown by the Contracting Officer as well as on the contract documents.

In addition to FAR 52.236-9 Protection of Existing Vegetation, Structures, Equipment, Utilities, and Improvements:
a. Remove or alter existing work in such a manner as to prevent injury or damage to any portions of the existing work which remain.
b. Repair or replace portions of existing work which have been altered during construction operations to match existing or adjoining work, as approved by the Contracting Officer. At the completion of operations, existing work must be in a condition equal to or better than that which existed before new work started.
1.4 LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
Obtain digging permits prior to start of excavation, and comply with Installation requirements for locating and marking underground utilities.
Contact local utility locating service a minimum of 48 hours prior to excavating, to mark utilities, and within sufficient time required if work occurs on a Monday or after a Holiday. Verify existing utility locations indicated on contract drawings, within area of work.
Identify and mark all other utilities not managed and located by the local utility companies. Scan the construction site with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), electromagnetic, or sonic equipment, and mark the surface of the ground or paved surface where existing underground utilities are discovered. Verify the elevations of existing piping, utilities,and any type of underground obstruction not indicated, or specified to be removed, that is indicated or discovered during scanning, in locations to be traversed by piping, ducts, and other work to be conducted or installed.
Verify elevations before installing new work closer than nearest manhole or other structure at which an adjustment in grade can be made.

3.3.6 Standard Activity Coding Dictionary
Use the activity coding structure defined in the Standard Data Exchange Format (SDEF) in ER 1-1-11 . This exact structure is mandatory. Develop and assign all Activity Codes to activities as detailed herein. A template SDEF compatible schedule backup file is available on the QCS web site: http://rms.usace.army.mil .
The SDEF format is as follows:
01 32 01.00 10 - 4
Field Activity Code Length Description
1 WRKP 3 Workers per day
2 RESP 4 Responsible party
3 AREA 4 Area of work
4 MODF 6 Modification Number
5 BIDI 6 Bid Item (CLIN)
6 PHAS 2 Phase of work
7 CATW 1 Category of work
8 FOW 20 Feature of work*
*Some systems require that FEATURE OF WORK values be placed in several activity code fields. The notation shown is for Primavera P6. Refer to the specific software guidelines with respect to the FEATURE OF WORK field requirements.
3.3.6.1 Workers Per Day (WRKP)
Assign Workers per Day for all field construction or direct work activities, if directed by the Contracting Officer. Workers per day is based on the average number of workers expected each day to perform a task for the duration of that activity.
3.3.6.2 Responsible Party Coding (RESP)
Assign responsibility code for all activities to the Prime Contractor, Subcontractor(s) or Government agency(ies) responsible for performing the activity.
a. Activities coded with a Government Responsibility code include, but are not limited to: Government approvals, Government design reviews, environmental permit approvals by State regulators, Government Furnished Property/Equipment (GFP) and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.
b. Activities cannot have more than one Responsibility Code. Examples of acceptable activity code values are: DOR (for the designer of record);
ELEC (for the electrical subcontractor); MECH (for the mechanical subcontractor); and GOVT (for USACE).
3.3.6.3 Area of Work Coding (AREA)
Assign Work Area code to activities based upon the work area in which the activity occurs. Define work areas based on resource constraints or space constraints that would preclude a resource, such as a particular trade or craft work crew from working in more than one work area at a time due to restraints on resources or space. Examples of Work Area Coding include different areas within a floor of a building, different floors within a
01 32 01.00 10 - 5 building, and different buildings within a complex of buildings.
Activities cannot have more than one Work Area Code.
Not all activities are required to be Work Area coded. A lack of Work Area coding indicates the activity is not resource or space constrained.
3.3.6.4 Modification Number (MODF)
Assign a Modification Number Code to any activity or sequence of activities added to the schedule as a result of a Contract Modification, when approved by Contracting Officer. Key all Code values to the Government's modification numbering system. An activity can have only one Modification Number Code.
3.3.6.5 Bid Item Coding (BIDI)
Assign a Bid Item Code to all activities using the Contract Line Item Schedule (CLIN) to which the activity belongs, even when an activity is not cost loaded. An activity can have only one BIDI Code.
3.3.6.6 Phase of Work Coding (PHAS)
Assign Phase of Work Code to all activities. Examples of phase of work are procurement phase and construction phase. Each activity can have only one Phase of Work code.
a. Code proposed fast track design and construction phases proposed to allow filtering and organizing the schedule by fast track design and construction packages.
b. If the contract specifies phasing with separately defined performance periods, identify a Phase Code to allow filtering and organizing the schedule accordingly.
3.3.6.7 Category of Work Coding (CATW)
Assign a Category of Work Code to all activities. Category of Work Codes include, but are not limited to construction submittal, procurement, fabrication, weather sensitive installation, non-weather sensitive installation, start-up, and testing activities. Each activity can have no more than one Category of Work Code.
3.3.6.8 Feature of Work Coding (FOW)
Assign a Feature of Work Code to appropriate activities based on the Definable Feature of Work to which the activity belongs based on the approved QC plan.
Definable Feature of Work is defined in Section 01 45 00.00 10 QUALITY CONTROL. An activity can have only one Feature of Work Code.
3.3.7 Contract Milestones and Constraints
Milestone activities are to be used for significant project events including, but not limited to, project phasing, project start and end activities, or interim completion dates. The use of artificial float constraints such as "zero free float" or "zero total float" are prohibited.
01 32 01.00 10 - 6
Mandatory constraints that ignore or effect network logic are prohibited.
No constrained dates are allowed in the schedule other than those specified herein. Submit additional constraints to the Contracting Officer for approval on a case by case basis.
3.3.7.1 Project Start Date Milestone and Constraint
The first activity in the project schedule must be a start milestone titled "NTP Acknowledged," which must have a "Start On" constraint date equal to the date that the NTP is acknowledged.
3.3.7.2 End Project Finish Milestone and Constraint
The last activity in the schedule must be a finish milestone titled "End Project."
Constrain the project schedule to the Contract Completion Date in such a way that if the schedule calculates an early finish, then the float calculation for "End Project" milestone reflects positive float on the longest path. If the project schedule calculates a late finish, then the "End Project" milestone float calculation reflects negative float on the longest path. The Government is under no obligation to accelerate Government activities to support a Contractor's early completion.
3.3.7.3 Interim Completion Dates and Constraints
Constrain contractually specified interim completion dates to show negative float when the calculated late finish date of the last activity in that phase is later than the specified interim completion date.
3.3.7.3.1 Start Phase
Use a start milestone as the first activity for a project phase. Call the start milestone "Start Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.
3.3.7.3.2 End Phase
Use a finish milestone as the last activity for a project phase. Call the finish milestone "End Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.
3.3.8 Calendars
Schedule activities on a Calendar to which the activity logically belongs. Develop calendars to accommodate any contract defined work period such as a 7-day calendar for Government Acceptance activities, concrete cure times, etc. Develop the default Calendar to match the physical work plan with non-work periods identified including weekends and holidays. Develop Seasonal Calendar(s) and assign to seasonally affected activities as applicable.
If an activity is weather sensitive it should be assigned to a calendar showing non-work days on a monthly basis, with the non-work days selected at random across the weeks of the calendar, using the anticipated adverse weather delay work days provided in the Special Contract Clauses. Assign non-work days over a seven-day week as weather records are compiled on seven-day weeks, which may cause some of the weather related non-work days to fall on weekends .
01 32 01.00 10 - 7
3.3.9 Open Ended Logic
Only two open ended activities are allowed: the first activity "NTP Acknowledged" may have no predecessor logic, and the last activity -"End Project" may have no successor logic.
Predecessor open ended logic may be allowed in a time impact analyses upon the Contracting Officer's approval.
3.3.10 Default Progress Data Disallowed
Actual Start and Finish dates must not automatically update with default mechanisms included in the scheduling software. Updating of the percent complete and the remaining duration of any activity must be independent functions. Disable program features that calculate one of these parameters from the other. Activity Actual Start (AS) and Actual Finish (AF) dates assigned during the updating process must match those dates provided in the Contractor Quality Control Reports. Failure to document the AS and AF dates in the Daily Quality Control report will result in disapproval of the Contractor's schedule.
