Library Specs.docx

This specification document outlines requirements for outdoor libraries to be procured by the Central Virginia Health District (CVHD) across five Virginia counties. The project calls for the delivery of 25 total libraries, with five units each to Amherst, Appomattox, Bedford, Campbell, and Lynchburg counties. Each library must be constructed from recycled eco-friendly plastic lumber composite materials and feature dimensions of 11.25 inches deep by 18.25 inches wide by 14.25 inches tall at the front, with an 11-inch height at the back due to roof slope. The external dimensions are 14.5 inches deep by 20.25 inches wide by 16.75 inches tall at front and 13.25 inches tall at back, with approximately 1-inch roof overhang. Each unit weighs 35 pounds and must include a black rooftop with a 4-inch by 4-inch mounting post cut in two pieces and a 12.75-inch wide by 5-inch tall post topper, along with six 2.5-inch by 1/4-inch lag screws for attachment.

The libraries must demonstrate resistance to ultraviolet radiation and harsh weather conditions as critical performance requirements for outdoor installation. The specification document includes reference images for design and construction guidance. No information regarding pricing terms, set-asides, response deadlines, or contract award timelines is provided in this specification document.
