It shall be the contractor's responsibility to obtain information concerning weather conditions in the project area. Reference is made to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The publication entitled Local Climatological Data - Monthly Summary Which contains climatological and meteorological observations and data, including wind, rain, and temperature data for the project area. Subscription price and ordering information are available from the National Climatic Data Center, Federal Building, Asheville, North Carolina 28801.
1.1.1 Weather Condition
The project area is subject to tropical storms and hurricanes from June through November, and to windy and/or rainy weather during any time of the year. The climate of the area is essentially subtropical, and temperatures below freezing are infrequent. The wet season in the project area is from May through October. Rainfall during these months is closely associated with convective activity. These rainfall events are normally of short duration and amounts are spatially variable. In general, the winter months constitute the dry season. Rainfall during the winter months is usually associated with mid-latitude systems (fronts and low pressure systems) and is distributed in a more spatially uniform pattern. Occasionally, daily rainfall in the dry season can be quite heavy as mid-latitude systems penetrate into Florida. Dangerous thunderstorms can occur in this area at any time of the year. Weather forecasts as well as actual rainfall information from the National Weather Service Jacksonville-North Florida forecast office can be accessed at: hhtp://www.srh.noaa.gov/jax/.

Structural Study Report
Facility ID: Bldg 794, FRCSE, NAS JAX, FL Field Inspector: Douglas A. Szilagyi, P.E.
Field Inspection Date: June 14, 2013 Report Prepared by: Douglas A. Szilagyi, P.E.
Report Date: July 26, 2013 References:
1. Original As-Built Construction Documents by Burns & McDonnell dated 6-10-1982
2. Material Handling Equipment List provided by FRCSE
3. 794 Equipment Accessibility Plan provided by FRCSE
Executive Summary: The scope of this study was to determine if specific material handling equipment used at Fleet Readiness Center South East (FRCSE) can be safely supported on the first floor of building 794 (operating floor). Per structural analysis, it was determined that some material handling equipment is not safe for its intended use in the building. Some equipment was determined safe but only with a weight lifting capacity less than the equipment’s prescribed weight lifting capacity. Other equipment was determined safe without limitations. A summary of the equipment allowed on the operating floor can be found in the conclusion of this report.
The design capacity of the floor was determined using current code and design standards.
Although some of the equipment in this study was determined to exceed the design capacity of the floor, all of the equipment has been previously used on the floor with no obvious signs of failure. This indicates that the actual floor strength is greater than its design capacity. One reason for this is that structures, in general, are designed per building code to be elastic. This means that they are designed to reach their maximum design capacity before any permanent damage occurs – not before actual failure. A second reason is that there are factors of safety embedded in the code prescribed load capacity equations. These two safety measures are implemented to avoid failure in a scenario where actual loading may be slightly over the design capacity. Even though there is some extra load capacity in the floor beyond its design capacity, the excess capacity cannot be safely relied on and is not allowed per code. This capacity limitation is important to avoid permanently damaging the structure.
The study concluded the following restrictions: (1) Yale 10,000 lb capacity forklift and the JLG 70H boom lift should not be allowed in the building (2) All forklifts and boom lifts should not be used on the portion of the operating floor over the basement (3) No material handling equipment should be allowed over the electrical raceways embedded in the slab-on-grade. It is possible that some of these restrictions can be negated if certain solutions are engineered and implemented.
Possible solutions include reinforcing the floor structure over the basement, using engineered steel donnage plates under the wheels of boom lifts during lifting operations, using lighter forklifts, and using steel plates to bridge the electrical raceway. These solutions are conceptual and will require further engineering analysis to determine their practicality. Recommendations are included at the end of this report.

SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 2
Facility Information: Building 794 is a 1-story facility located at the south end of FRCSE. The facility is used for the plating and cleaning process of various metal components. The building is approximately 30 years old. See the following Room Layout Plan (Figure-1) for general building layout.
Figure-1
The building is comprised of a steel roof structure supported by steel columns. The columns are supported on a deep foundation system consisting of concrete grade beams and auger-cast piles.
There is a partial basement at both the west and east end of the building with a tunnel connecting the basements at approximately the center of the building. The operating floor over both basement areas consists of a combination of two types of floor deck construction: 6” thick reinforced concrete deck and 1 ½” fiberglass grating. Both the concrete deck and steel grating areas consist of varying spans supported by steel beams and columns. The operating floor over the tunnel consists of a 7” thick reinforced concrete deck which spans 7’-0” clear to the reinforced concrete walls that form the sides of the tunnel. All other areas of the operating floor consist of 6” thick reinforced concrete slab-on-grade bearing directly on the soil. Some areas of the slab-on-grade have 6 ¾” wide electrical raceways embedded in the slab with only 2” of concrete cover over the raceway. The exact location and dimensions of the raceways can be found in Appendix A of this report.
SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 3
See the following Existing Floor Construction Plan (Figure-2) for location of the floor construction types.
Figure-2
Routine operations in the building require the use of material handling equipment such as forklifts and pallet trucks. The heaviest items transported are typically 275 gallon containers filled with plating solution with an estimated weight of 3,300 lbs. There is also the need to use scissor lifts and boom lifts for general building maintenance including changing light bulbs.
The floor capacity to safely support material handling equipment was previously unknown.
Original as-built construction documents by Burns & McDonnell dated 6-10-1982 list allowable floor live loads on sheet S1, but these loads are misleading when applied to material handling equipment. The live load for operating floors is stated on the drawings as “250 psf or 2,500 lb capacity forklift.” The 250 psf statement only applies to equipment that rests on the slab with a uniform load distribution, whereas material handling equipment typically places concentrated
SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 4 loads on the slab. The concern with the 2,500 lb capacity forklift statement is that two different model forklifts with the same lifting capacity can have different load distribution, therefore some 2,500 lb forklifts may work and others may not. This is specifically due to multiple variances between forklift models including equipment geometry, load center location, wheel base distance, wheel type, and wheel size. This same concept is true for other forms of material handling equipment such as boom and scissor lifts. Therefore, to determine a floor’s capability to safely support material handling equipment, specific equipment must be analyzed.
Equipment Information: A list of all known material handling equipment currently used at building 794 was provided by Darryl Sewell of FRCSE on May 21, 2013. The list included US Navy equipment identification numbers, photos, and excerpts from equipment manuals. An Equipment Accessibility Plan was also provided indicating where material handling equipment is typically used. After speaking with B794 personnel, it was clear that boom lifts, scissor lifts, and forklifts, are commonly used in all areas throughout the building. Therefore, the study evaluated all material handling equipment in all areas.
Inspection of the equipment was performed on June 5, 2013 with the assistance of Mr. Sewell.
The inspection focused on gathering general information about the equipment including make, model, wheel size, wheel base, and load information stated on the equipment such as gross vehicle weight, max wheel load, and max tire pressure. Equipment that could not be located during this visit was observed by Mr. Sewell at a later date and the information was forwarded to NAVFAC via email.
See the following Material Handling Equipment List (Figure-3) for a summary of all equipment information gathered.
SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 5
Figure-3
Building Inspection Process: A cursory inspection of the building was performed on June 14, 2013 with the assistance of Darryl Sewell. The purpose of the inspection was to 1) determine general compliance with the as-built documents 2) look for signs of distress in the floor structure and 3) discuss the typical use of the material handling equipment in 794 with building personnel.
The inspection was performed using a measuring tape and a digital camera provided by FRCSE.
Building Observations: The building appeared to be in general compliance with the as-built drawings. Cracking of the concrete floor slab was observed in two general areas.
One area of cracking was in the 7” operating floor slab over the tunnel at the west end of the tunnel where it intersects the west basement. The cracking appears in multiple runs all in the same direction perpendicular with the length of the tunnel. The cracks span from corner to corner of the tunnel walls and appear no wider than 1/8”. The cracks are on both the top and underside of the slab and are approximately the same width, length, and location on each side.
The other area of cracking was in the 6” operation floor slab-on-grade at the northeast corner of the building between the oven room and the loading dock. The cracks are in various directions
SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 6 and appear to be approximately 1/8” to 1/4” wide. The cracks in this area have been sealed with what appears to be an epoxy sealant.
Although the cracking in the operating floor slab over the tunnel does not present like the typical pattern of overloading, it is unclear what has caused the cracking. The cause of cracking at the slab-on-grade is also unclear since only the top of the slab was observed. Due to the nature of the construction of slab-on-grade, observing the underside of the slab is not an option. Without seeing both the top and bottom of the slab, it is difficult to determine cause of cracking.
Therefore, since the cause of cracking is unclear at both locations, overloading cannot be ruled out as the cause of cracking for either case.
Evaluation: The operating floor was analyzed for all material handling equipment at all floor locations throughout the building. All concrete floor systems were analyzed in accordance to the American Concrete Institute (ACI) standards including ACI 318, Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and ACI 360, Design of Slabs-On-Ground. These standards are design standards enforced by the current building code and therefore represent a level of safety in-line with current industry practice.
Conclusion: The structural analysis concluded the following:
OPERTAING FLOOR SLAB-ON-GRADE & OPERATING FLOOR SLAB OVER TUNNEL:
All equipment can safely be supported by the operating floor slab-on-grade and the operating floor slab over the tunnel except for the following:
1. No. 9 JLG 70H Boom lift (ID = 121379)
2. No. 13 Yale 10,000 lb Forklift (ID = USN 13-69799)
In addition to the aforementioned exceptions, No. 7 JLG E450AJ boom lift (ID = 69603) and No.
17 JLG E300AJP boom lift (ID = 663962RA) cannot be placed over the tunnel during lifting operations. Also, no material handling equipment should be used over the electrical raceways (see Appendix A).
OPERATING FLOOR SLAB OVER BASEMENT: The operating floor slab over the basement cannot safely support any of the forklifts or boom lifts listed on the Material Handling Equipment List (Figure-3). However, all other equipment – scissor lifts, carts, and pallet trucks/jacks – can be safely supported with the exception that pallet trucks/jacks carry no more than 3,500 lbs.
See the following Approved Material Handling Equipment List (Figure-4) and the Approved Equipment Plan (Figure-5) for a comprehensive summary of the floor’s structural limitations.

SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 8
Figure-5
SECTION 01 11 00 - ENCLOSURE 1 Page 9
Recommendations: The following is a list of recommended solutions to allow the use or substitution of boom lifts and forklift determined to be over the capacity of the current structure.
1. Reinforce the operating floor slab over the basement by adding new steel beams to shorten the slab span. When properly designed, this should allow the use of a 4,000 lb capacity forklift and certain boom lifts. Boom lifts may still need donnage plates during lifting operations depending on the design of the reinforcing (see recommendation 2).
2. Use boom lifts with steel donnage plates at the operating floor slab over the basement, the operating floor slab-on-grade, and the operating floor slab over the tunnel. The steel donnage plates must be placed directly under the tires of boom lifts during lifting operations. Specific size and thickness of plates will need to be determined per engineering analysis to ensure proper load distribution to the concrete slab below. This would not be needed for No. 7 JLG E300AJP Boom lift (ID = 663962RA) or No. 17 JLG E300AJP boom lift (ID = 663962RA) when used at the operating floor slab-on-grade – equipment is already acceptable at this location.
3. Use other material handling equipment in lieu of forklifts. 2,500 lb capacity forklifts may not be an acceptable solution for the operating floor slab over the basement as implied in the original contract drawings – it depends on the specific make and model. The smallest capacity for most forklift manufacturers is 3,000 lb. A 3,000 lb forklift typically has an axel load that exceeds the capacity of the operating floor slab over the basement. Lighter weight material handling equipment with a more concentric load distribution, such as pallet jacks, may be an appropriate alternate to forklifts.
4. Use engineered steel plates to bridge over the electrical raceways to allow for certain material handling equipment to travel over the raceways.
The recommendations stated above cannot be implemented without further structural analysis.
The recommendations are conceptual solutions and may be determined unfeasible after further analysis is performed.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this study.
