Steel-Frame Walls and Roofs shall be constructed in a manner compliant with ASHRAE Standard 90.1 Tables A2.3 or A3.3. U-values used for energy analysis shall be as shown and will require continuous insulation, (uninterrupted by framing) as required by those tables. Minimum steel frame wall construction is a 3.5 inch stud depth, 16 inches on center with R-11 in the stud cavity and an additional R-10 continuous insulation for a total adjusted wall assembly of R-17 ( U-value .057)

4.7.1 As required under ASHRAE 90.1 2004, Insulation shall not be installed resting upon removable suspended ceilings. Nor shall it be installed in a manner which can contaminate clean rooms.

26 AUG

4.8 Painting:

All large exterior equipment shall be painted unless a screen is provided for the equipment. Heat-generating electrical equipment such as transformers or switches shall be painted Federal Paint Number 23617, Greystone. The color of other mechanical and miscellaneous equipment shall be on a case by case basis and be painted either Federal Paint Number 23617, Greystone or 30099; Dakota Brown,.

This includes, but is not limited to HVAC units, including exterior conduit systems. All architectural coatings must comply with the VOC limits established by the EPA in the Architectural Coatings Rule published under the authority of the Clean Air Act.

4.8.1 General: Painting for new surfaces will consist of a prime coat and two topcoats. Semi-gloss paint will be used in high traffic, interior areas. Treat any waste associated with removal of lead paint will be treated as a hazardous material. Removal of red lead on structures shall comply with the procedures detailed in local, state and federal regulations and procedures. If repainting is required, the surface will be spot primed and one finish coat will be applied. Spray painting is limited to water tanks; fuel tanks;

interiors of unoccupied buildings; the underside of docks; overhangs of 800 series buildings or any other job where the massiveness and intricacy precludes brush or roller application. Any spray painting will be done with an airless spray gun. Do not specify spray-painting if over-spray will damage aircraft, vehicles, equipment or other facilities. Fire hydrants. PIV’s, bollards, etc., shall be painted Dakota Brown.

4.8.2 Concrete Exterior Surfaces: These surfaces shall not be painted except to prevent water penetration, unless specifically approved by the Base Civil Engineer.

4.9 Canopies:

Canopy designs shall be approved for Architectural Compatibility.

4.10 Windows:

4.10.1 General: Because unique conditions at Hill Air Force Base all new windows must meet the Antiterrorism Force Protection explosion protection requirements provided in UFC 4-010-01.

In addition the following applies:

4.10.1.5 All window air leakage shall not exceed 1.0 cfm/SqFt and shall be determined in accordance with the National Fenestration Rating Council and shall be so labeled and certified by the manufacturer.

4.10.2 Windows in administrative areas: Other than facilities with Historic Preservation concerns, all windows will be “projected in” tilt sash style with bronze glass and a bronze anodized finish.

4.10.3 Dormitory windows: Provide single hung, non-tilt windows with bronze tinted glass and bronze anodized finish.

4.10.4 Housing Areas: These windows will be sliders, single hung style or projected in windows with clear glass and a white anodized or white vinyl finish.

4.10.5 Window thermal performance shall meet or exceed minimum energy standards for federal buildings. Spectrally selective coatings must be chosen for performance in the particular application and be factory applied. Low-e coatings and solar reflective coatings perform distinctly different functions and are not interchangeable. Selective coatings must be properly placed on the correct glazing surface in order to perform properly.

4.11 Dormitories and Billeting Facilities:

The design of these facilities shall follow the guidance provided by AFMC, Guidelines for Facilities Excellence, 1996.

4.12 Roof Drainage:

Provide gables at all entrances unless it is specifically unfeasible or has a canopy. Metal roofs shall be equipped with a snow management system. Use rain gutters only when gutters are the only feasible method available to channel runoff to the storm drain system or for safety considerations. Provide heat tape system with rain gutters.

4.13 1200 Zone Rest rooms: Alterations of 1200 Zone buildings will standardize the location of the rest rooms in the center of the buildings.

4.14 Roofs:

4.14.1 General: Roofing may utilize conventional or unconventional materials.

4.14.1.1 Headquarters AFMC. The use of single ply roofing will be further restricted to ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), fully adhered, and will be placed no higher than a single story height to minimize wind lift.

4.14.1.2 Conventional Roofing: Most projects will utilize conventional roofing materials for new and repair projects. Conventional materials are Built Up roof (BUR) including modified bitumen, asphalt shingles, or standing seam metal roofs. When specifying BUR, a 20-year guarantee is required and the installing contractor must be certified by the BUR manufacturer before their bid can be accepted.

4.14.1.3 Unconventional Roofing: Unconventional roofing such as single ply or sprayed on membrane must be approved by HQ AFMC prior to use. If large areas of roof standing seam roofing are required by any project, the design shall provide gable entrances over all entranceways to prevent sheets of snow from sliding off and injuring personnel or damaging equipment in the fall zone.

4.14.2 Drainage: Sloped roofs shall be used in lieu of flat roofs when possible. To avoid snow sliding into door entryways roof gables will be used to the maximum extent possible. Hill AFB is located in a cold region, and because of past experience with ice and snow damage, the use of external gutters shall be limited to entryways where a roof gable is not possible. Drainage will be provided with a roof designed to slope away from personnel activity. The use of roof overhangs that extend over sidewalks is encouraged. Metal roofs shall not have internal guttering. Horizontal roof drains in unheated attic spaces shall be kept to a minimum to prevent freeze-ups.

4.14.3 Corrugated Cement Asbestos Roofs: These type roofs exist on a considerable number of roofs in the West area of Hill AFB. When it necessary to repair this type roof consideration should be given to replace the entire roof; however, it may be overlaid with plywood and asphalt shingles. The majority of the asbestos roofs have been encapsulated. If the contractor needs to mount new equipment or disturb the roof, great care should be taken to not disturb the asbestos.

4.14.4 Heat Tape: Heat tapes are to be avoided whenever possible. They are a maintenance problem, and most often do not receive routine maintenance at Hill AFB due to the lack of funds and maintenance personnel.

26 AUG

4.14.5 Plywood Decking: Fire retardant treated plywood (FTR) is banned on all new and re-roofing projects. This type of plywood deteriorates when used as roof decking. Untreated exterior glued plywood will be used for decking.

4.14.6 Roof Penetrations: All roof penetrations will be kept to a minimum. The Base roofing engineer will be consulted prior to calling for penetrations in new and existing roofs. This coordination will answer questions on existing roof warranties and recommended penetration details for both new and existing roofs.

4.15 Landscaping:

4.15.1 General: All new construction and major renovation projects, (facility construction, site design, and landscape construction) will follow best management practices and the following requirements.

4.15.2 Xeriscape Landscapes. Xeriscape landscaping will be the primary comprehensive approach to landscaping for water conservation and pollution prevention for all installation landscape projects.

Xeriscape uses native, naturally occurring plant material in the landscape design to convey a sense of regional context while embracing sustainable landscape design and preservation of native and endangered species. Native plants are more acclimated to the climate and require less irrigation. The xeriscape methodology is relevant to planning and design, soil analysis, selection of suitable plants, practical turf areas, efficient irrigation, use of mulches, and appropriate maintenance choices. An emphasis will be given to a desert motif using water resistant plantings. Landscaping will emphasize the architectural lines and features of adjacent buildings and areas, and will be designed to require little or not pruning. Landscaping will be designed with year-around consideration for human comfort. Passive solar cooling methods will be considered such as deciduous tree shading on the east, south and west exposures.

4.15.3 The intent is to limit or eliminate the use of potable water for landscape irrigation. Irrigation typically uses potable water, although lower quality water is equally effective for irrigating landscapes.

Sources of non-potable water include: captured rainwater from roof and parking lot runoff; graywater from building systems; and municipal recycled water supply systems.

4.15.4 Water efficiency design strategies will be applied to landscape irrigation by the use of cycle irrigation methods to improve penetration and reduce runoff. For optimal growth, cycle irrigation provides the right amount of water at the right time and place. Designs/retrofits will include the use of low-precipitation-rate sprinklers (better distribution uniformity), bubbler/soaker systems, or drip irrigation systems. For technical information related to irrigation, see UFC 3-420-01, Plumbing Systems; UFGS 32 84 23, Underground Sprinkler Systems; and UFGS 32 84 24, Irrigation Sprinkler Systems.

4.15.5 Shrubs and Trees: Shrubs and trees will be the most drought resistant varieties, and where possible will be placed without irrigation sprinklers. Large trees will be planted with enough space to facilitate growth and trimming, which will normally dictate that they be planted at least 20-feet apart.

4.15.6 Slopes: All slopes shall be no steeper than 3 to 1. Provide slope protection using recent technology for all slopes.

4.15.7 Where lawn grass is used, it shall be provided with irrigation sprinklers, and will be sodded not begun from seed, except for dry land seeding applications. Irrigated lawns shall consider incorporation of a river-run rock or lava rock perimeter to preclude water over spray of sidewalks and pavements.

4.15.8 Restoration of Native Ground Cover: All native ground cover that is disturbed by construction and not scheduled for landscaping shall be re-seeded with drought resistant grasses and legumes.

26 AUG

Mixtures of dry land alfalfa, fairway crested wheat grass and Indian rice grass will be used in good sandy, loam soils. Use sand drop seed with fairway crested wheat grass in gravely soil. Machine drilling on generally level to mildly sloping ground is preferable. Hydro seeding should only be used on 3 to 1 slopes. This native ground cover seeding should take place in April, May, September and the first half of October only.

26 AUG

5. ENERGY AND WATER CONSERVATION REQUIREMENTS.

5.1 Facility Energy Policy:

5.1.1 New buildings (excluding single family and low rise multi-family residential buildings), building additions, and major renovations exceeding 25% of replacement value, shall be designed and constructed in accordance with latest Federal Energy Regulations or Air Force and DoD policy when more stringent. A partial list of current applicable Federal Energy Regulations are:

1. Energy Policy Act 2005 as codified in 10 CFR Parts 433, 434 and 435. (EPACT 2005)

2. Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. (EISA 2007)

A partial list of Dept of Defense and Air Force energy regulations are:

1. UFC 3-400-01 Energy Conservation

2.ETL 08-13 Incorporating Sustainable Design and Development and Facility Energy Attributes in the Air Force Construction Program.

Specifically, new buildings, building additions, and major renovations exceeding 25% of replacement value, shall be designed and constructed in compliance with ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1 - 2004 Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low Rise Residential Buildings.

New construction, building additions, and major renovations, of single family housing and low rise (3 stories or less) residential buildings shall be designed and constructed in compliance with the International Energy Conservation Code. ICC

In addition to compliance design and construction shall achieve an energy consumption level that is at least 30 percent below the level achieved through compliance under ASHRAE 90.1 or ICC as applicable. If the 30 percent energy consumption savings cannot be achieved in a life cycle cost effective manner, the maximum savings level that is cost effective shall be achieved. Energy consumption levels for both the baseline building and the proposed building shall be determined by using the Performance Rating Method in ASHRAE 90.1 Appendix G with the following correction to paragraph G1.2

Percent improvement = 100 x (Baseline building consumption - Proposed building consumption) / (Baseline building consumption - receptacle and process loads.)

5.1.2 All energy consuming products shall be either ENERGY STAR qualified or FEMP-recommended. These products are in the upper 25 percent of energy efficiency in their class.

5.1.3 Both recovered and renewable energy shall be used in each design to the maximum extent that is life cycle cost effective. Solar hot water shall be used in each design to furnish a minimum of 30 percent of the hot water demand if life cycle cost effective.

5.1.3 For buildings less than 20,000 SqFt. the designer may choose to meet or exceed the minimum requirements listed in the prescriptive table below in lieu of the extensive computer modeling required by the Performance Rating Method in ASHRAE 90.1 Appendix G.

5.1.3.1. This table is based upon: Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Office Buildings for climate zone 5B. However, modifications have been made to comply with additional Federal Energy Policy Act requirements.
