About this file
This federal solicitation is for the construction of two bulk fuel storage tanks and associated support infrastructure at Royal Australian Air Force Base Tindal in Australia. The project includes construction of two 25,000-barrel cut-and-cover fuel tanks, two pump houses, a liquid fuel truck fill stand, fuel stand unloading facility, filter building, and all required utilities, automatic tank gauging systems, site improvements, pavements, communications infrastructure, backup generator, and other work to provide a complete and usable facility. The solicitation also contains three pre-priced options for additional work: construction of concrete versus asphalt heavy duty pavements, a cross over pit for fuel transfer lines, and a hydrant-hose checkout station. The solicitation is issued by the Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command.

Unless indicated otherwise, provide pipe sleeves meeting the following requirements:
Secure sleeves in position and location during construction. Provide sleeves of sufficient length to pass through entire thickness of walls, ceilings, roofs, and floors.
A modular mechanical type sealing assembly may be installed in lieu of a waterproofing clamping flange and caulking and sealing of annular space between pipe and sleeve. The seals shall consist of interlocking synthetic rubber links shaped to continuously fill the annular space between the pipe and sleeve using galvanized steel bolts, nuts, and pressure plates. The links shall be loosely assembled with bolts to form a continuous rubber belt around the pipe with a pressure plate under each bolt head and each nut. After the seal assembly is properly positioned in the sleeve, tightening of the bolt shall cause the rubber sealing elements to expand and provide a watertight seal between the pipe and the sleeve. Each seal assembly shall be sized as recommended by the manufacturer to fit the pipe and sleeve involved.
Sleeves shall not be installed in structural members, except where indicated or approved. Rectangular and square openings shall be as detailed. Each sleeve shall extend through its respective floor, or roof, and shall be cut flush with each surface, except for special circumstances.
