1.2 OVERVIEW

This Request for Proposal (RFP) as issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) – New York District sets forth instructions and requirements for proposals for a Design/Build (D/B) supply project to replace the existing paint booth and oven in Building 110 at Watervliet Arsenal in Watervliet, New York. Watervliet Arsenal’s address is:

1 Buffington Street Watervliet, NY 12189-4050

This project includes the complete design, documentation and construction of a replacement paint booth and cure oven, as well as necessary and required modifications to, or replacements of, the HVAC and supporting utility systems.

1.2.1 Background Information

Building 110 at WVA houses an existing paint booth used to paint components used in military equipment. The current operations are manual and the size of the facility limits the number and size of components that can be painted or coated. The current facility also does not meet current code requirements and this project will address current deficiencies and install a modern and code compliant system.

Building 110 is of Historic nature and thereby, all work conducted on the building must be coordinated with the Cultural Resources Offices (SHPO) to ensure all Historic requirements are being met and no adverse effects occur.

SECTION 01 10 00 Page 2

The existing paint booth and oven system is a linear arrangement with two major components:

a. Paint Booth

b. Curing Oven

The overall project requirement is to provide a new paint booth and oven which is automated with robotic tooling, programmable controls, and climate control for heating and cooling. The paint booth and oven would also be designed to accommodate the largest components with flexibility for anticipated future sizes and capacity requirements.

The project would include all infrastructure in support of the paint booth, cure oven, and equipment including electrical, communications, gas, steam, and other services as required. The project will also require modifications to the existing building to accommodate new equipment in support of the paint booth and cure oven.

1.2.2 Key Project Requirements

The project requirements include the installation of a new paint booth with spray painting automation and a new oven to be located in line with the paint booth. The addition of Automated Paint application will improve efficiency, throughput, and quality control to reduce rework of paint systems. The project includes all work required to decommission and demolish the existing paint booth and oven. The new paint booth and oven will be automated with robotic tooling, programmable controls, and automatic adjustment for ambient/climate conditions. The new paint booth and oven shall be integrated to the existing building’s utilities, systems, and structure. Planning and execution of work in areas outside the existing paint booth and oven will help to minimize the downtime to current paint booth operations.

The painting operations will be performed at another location during the demolition of the existing paint booth and oven and construction of the new paint booth and oven. No access and/or work will be allowed within the Building until all approved equipment is on site and ready to be installed. The location of Contractor laydown, storage, and impacts to parking will need to be coordinated during the design and as part of construction for different areas of work. It is anticipated a laydown space would be available adjacent to Building 110 and areas within Building 110 on the South side during the construction phase.

This approach will support minimizing the overall downtime of the painting operations. The project will provide for HVAC, power, fire protection, gas connections, compressed air, and all structural repairs and/or modifications required to properly install the new paint booth and cure oven units.

1.2.3 Project Scope Summary

The D/B Contractor must provide a complete, turnkey project that includes:

a. Decommission and remove the existing Paint Booth and Oven system

SECTION 01 10 00 Page 3

b. Hazardous materials remediation of areas affected by the work of the Paint Booth and Oven System Replacement Project, as indicated in the Hazardous Materials Report attached in Appendix D. The Contractor shall develop plans and specifications to address remediation and conduct additional sampling as necessary.

c. Design, construction, installation and commissioning of the new paint booth and oven system

d. Design, modification and commissioning of supporting building systems, including HVAC and electrical systems.

e. Commissioning of and training on the replacement paint booth, oven and supporting building systems

f. The work listed above must conform to the requirements stated under Part 1, Project Site/Area of Work of this specification section to minimize existing Paint Booth and Curing Oven production interruption.

1.2.4 Available Documentation

3.4.10 Equipment Support Structures

Based on findings during the field investigation, the building structural framing is in satisfactory condition and does not require repairs as related to the proposed project. However, framing impacted by construction of new equipment, platforms, supports, or other elements must be strengthened as necessary to maintain structural integrity.

Welding of new steel to existing is acceptable but the contractor must perform testing to determine compatibility with the existing steel.

Design and provide structural support for the new condenser units located above the roof. The frame must be independent of the existing building structural system, that is, self-supporting. The frame shall be stiff enough to keep movement at the roof flashing within tolerable limits. If vertical bracing is used it shall allow access below the frame for storage.The framing shall also provide support for grated access platforms (with guardrail) around the units and sound attenuation walls. The walls and platforms must not be supported by the existing roof or building structure. Access to the platform shall be provided via a new ladder and roof hatch. Design and provide support for the ladder and roof hatch as needed. A built-up curb must be developed at the roof surface to accept the hatch up at the grated platform level. Provide framed openings for roof penetrations for the frame columns and ladder to pass through. The contractor should anticipate that the roof decking and purlins are water-damaged in the area of the framed opening and will require replacement from roof truss to roof truss.

Design and provide support for the interior air handler units. Provide an elevated access platform around each unit as required by the equipment vendor. Provide access to the platforms via a fixed ladder.

The platform layout and design shall account for any clearances required by the vendor. The platform can be partially supported by the

SECTION 01 10 00 Page 20 existing structure and partially supported by steel posts down to the existing concrete floor. The contractor shall assess the existing structure’s suitability for use as partial support of the framing and if decided to be used shall be strengthened, if needed, to support the new equipment platform loads. The existing concrete shall also be checked for the ability to support concentrated loading from the new steel posts. If needed, new isolated concrete pad footings shall be designed and provided.

Design and provide supplemental support steel for new air handler ductwork and condenser lines running from the outside units. It is anticipated that new steel supports can be supported from existing steel columns and roof trusses. The contractor is responsible for determining if the existing steel is adequate and shall design and provide any reinforcing to existing steel required.

3.4.11 Floor Slab Requirements

Perform investigative testing on the existing concrete slab near the condenser units and near the new air handler units to determine the thickness and strength of the concrete for use with design tasks.

Provide a new concrete topping in the booth and oven as well as in the area of the existing extents of the trolley loop. The topping material must be designed to withstand temperatures expected in the oven. The topping shall be highly wear-resistant, with a minimum compressive strength (fc’) of 7,000 psi. The total thickness of new topping is two inches. The concrete surface shall be removed to two inches below the existing finished floor level and replaced with the new topping.
