4 Repair and/or Modify Facilities and Infrastructure

4.1 The ATCT Control Cab window glasses were installed at an outward angle of 6.5 degrees which produces multiple and simultaneous reflections and visual illusions on the interior of windows. Window reflections and visual illusions present a high risk to safety of flight, as the ability of air traffic controllers to view aircraft movement areas is degraded. The Contractor (KTR) shall repair and/or modify the ATCT Control Cab windows to meet the requirements of UFC 4-133-01, para 4-1.2.9 (see J-1 Figure 1).

4.1.1 Control Cab glass must be low-iron glass to optimize visible light transmittance. Tinted glass or heat strengthened glass must not be used for the cab glass. Low-E coated glass may be used with the understanding that the coating may reduce visible transmittance. Coordination with HVAC design must take place during planning and design phases to determine the acceptable heat transmission for the low-E coated glass.

4.1.2 Control Cab glass must slope at an outward angle of 15 degrees from vertical (see J-1 Figure 1).

4.1.3 Use double pane glazing unless design conditions dictate otherwise.

4.1.4 Window units must be constructed with a metal or composite plastic perimeter or a unitized extruded aluminum system frame. The frame must be bonded to the glass to provide an airtight, waterproof, and vapor proof seal.

4.1.5 Control Cab glass must meet site-specific wind load and seismic requirements. Glass must allow light gun red, white and green light from inside the ATCT to the outside.

4.2 The KTR shall repair and/or modify the ATCT Control Cab window mullions to meet the requirements of UFC 4-133-01, para 4-1.2.10 (see J-1 Figure 2).

4.2.1 Minimize control cab window mullions for air traffic controller visibility. Window mullions should not be directly in the line of sight to critical aircraft movement areas such as the approach ends of the runways.

4.2.2 To minimize sun reflections and hindrance of night vision, cab window mullion and column finishes must be a non-reflective dark color, and must incorporate a high performance anti-corrosion protection coating. Particular attention must be paid to prevent sunlight reflections from the windowsills and mullions. Consider butt glazing in place of non-load bearing mullions.

4.3 The KTR shall install window sunshades in the ATCT Control Cab to meet the requirements of UFC 4-133-01, para 4-1.2.11 (See J-1 Figure 3).

4.3.1 Window shades are required at all ATC TWRs for use in bright sunlight and snow conditions.

Shades must meet specifications listed in this SOW and UFC 4-133-01. The number of shades will be determined locally and will be on all sides of the ATCT to reduce rear and side reflections.

4.3.2 Provide manually-operated window sunshades for the ATCT Control Cab windows. Refer to FAA- E-2470b, Transparent Plastic Window Shades and FAA-ANI-300-380, Transparent Plastic Window Shades. The shades must be at least 0.125 mm thick, color smoke gray, body dyed, supported by rollers with constant tension. Follow slope of windows and match size and shape of each windows. Manual

C-8 operation is preferred - electric rollers are not encouraged. “Mini-blinds” or opaque, semi opaque, or mesh type shades are prohibited.

4.4 The KTR shall repair and/or modify the ATCT Control Cab roof access hatch and pull-down ladder to meet the requirements of UFC 4-133-01, para 4-1.2.13 (see J-1 Figure 4).

4.4.1 A personnel access hatch and ladder/stairs is required to transit from the control cab to the roof. The opening between the suspended ceiling and the roof is required to be enclosed around the hatch opening and painted flat black on the inside. The portion of the hatch, which is visible when stowed, must also be painted flat black.

4.4.2 The access hatch must be provided with a concealed pull-down/retractable ladder with integral grab rail. Include OSHA-compliant railing and gate at roof access hatch.

4.4.3 The location of the roof hatch and ladder must not be over the controller position cabinetry.

Additionally, it is essential that the location of where the roof ladder will bear on the raised access flooring be shown on the design drawings. This will confirm that the extended ladder does not interfere with the controller position cabinetry. The bearing feet of the ladder must rest on the finished floor when the ladder is fully extended.

4.5 The KTR shall paint and/or install Visual Aid to Navigations – Airfield Signs and Markings in accordance with UFC 3-260-04, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Annex 14 Vol I & II and General Aviation Civil Authority (GACA) Section 14, Vol I & II Aerodrome Operations and Design as described below.
