STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

PERFORM LOAD TEST ON RAPPEL TOWER AND FASTROPE STATIONS

AND CERTIFY CWD Dando Civ Chad W SOW is for load testing of Rappel Tower and Fast Rope Testing…what is “Certify”

Background

This requirement is to provide all labor, equipment, materials, transportation, and supervision necessary to perform load testing to determine the adequacy of the anchor points on the Rappel Tower and Fast Rope Stations, Building 4001 located at Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, South Carolina (MCRDPI).

Contract duration shall be one (1) base year with four (4) Option years.

Each one of the six (6) stations are assigned a letter (i.e. A, B, C, etc) and each anchor point is numbered. The following drawing represents the marking of each rappel system and anchor point. Design for system components. (1) Connectors are drop forged, pressed or formed steel, or made of equivalent materials. (2) Connectors have a corrosion-resistant finish, and all surfaces and edges are smooth to prevent damage to interfacing parts of the system. (3) Lanyards and vertical lifelines which tie-off one employee have a minimum breaking strength of 5,000 pounds (22.2 kN). (4) Self-retracting lifelines and lanyards which automatically limit free fall distance to two feet (0.61 m) or less have components capable of sustaining a minimum static tensile load of 3,000 pounds (13.3 kN) applied to the device with the lifeline or lanyard in the fully extended position. (5) Self-retracting lifelines and lanyards which do not limit free fall distance to two feet (0.61 m) or less, rip stitch lanyards, and tearing and deforming lanyards are capable of sustaining a minimum tensile load of 5,000 pounds (22.2 kN) applied to the device with the lifeline or lanyard in the fully extended position. (6) Dee-rings and snap-hooks are capable of sustaining a minimum tensile load of 5,000 pounds (22.2 kN). (7) Dee-rings and snap-hooks are 100 percent proof-tested to a minimum tensile load of 3,600 pounds (16 kN) without cracking, breaking, or taking permanent deformation. (8) Snap-hooks are sized to be compatible with the member to which they are connected so as to prevent unintentional disengagement of the snap-hook by depression of the snap-hook keeper by the connected member, or are a locking type snap-hook designed and used to prevent disengagement of the snap-hook by the contact of the snap hook keeper by the connected member. (9) Horizontal lifelines, where used, are designed, and installed as part of a complete personal fall arrest system, which maintains a safety factor of at least two, under the supervision of a qualified person. (10) Anchorages to which personal fall arrest equipment is attached are capable of supporting at least 5,000 pounds (22.2 kN) per employee attached, and are designed, installed, and used as part of a complete personal fall arrest system which maintains a safety factor of at least two, under the supervision of a qualified person. (11) Ropes and straps (webbing) used in lanyards, lifelines, and strength components of body belts and body harnesses, are made from synthetic fibers or wire rope.
