About this file
This solicitation is for a firm fixed-price construction contract to renovate Building 254 at the 185th Air Refueling Wing (ARW) Iowa Air National Guard Base in Sioux City, Iowa. The renovation scope includes upgrading office, classroom, restroom, locker room, and storage spaces; expanding secure areas to SCIF standards; replacing HVAC systems; upgrading electrical and communications systems; improving windows, doors, plumbing, and sewer infrastructure; installing fire suppression and mass notification systems; constructing an alert facility; and providing temporary facilities for occupants during construction. Additional work involves repairing rooms for a Global ASNT and installing supporting exterior structures and utility connections. The contract duration is 365 days with a magnitude between $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. Corbin Russwin locks are brand specific due to compatibility with existing base systems. Accompanying documents include building plans, specifications, AF forms addressing architectural, MEP, and civil scopes, and justifications for brand-specific procurement.

C. Install sediment and erosion control measures in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
D. Dewatering: Prevent surface water and subsurface or ground water from flowing into excavations and from flooding project site and surrounding area.
1. Do not allow water to accumulate in excavations. Remove water to prevent softening of bearing materials. Provide and maintain dewatering system components necessary to convey water away from excavations.
2. Establish and maintain temporary drainage ditches and other diversions outside excavation limits to convey surface water to collecting or run-off areas. Do not use trench excavations as temporary drainage ditches.
E. Material Storage: Stockpile satisfactory excavated materials where directed, until required for backfill or fill. Place, grade, and shape stockpiles for proper drainage.
1. Locate and retain soil materials away from edge of excavations. Do not store within drip-line of trees indicated to remain.

Renovate Squad OPS Page 10 of 11 FIRE PROTECTION
21 00 00 (202018) 2021 by FEI
3. Limit the length of open trench to that in which pipe can be installed, tested, and the trench backfilled within the same day.
4. Where rock is encountered, carry excavation below required elevation and backfill with a layer of crushed stone or gravel prior to installation of pipe. Provide a minimum of 6 inches of stone or gravel cushion between rock bearing surface and pipe.
5. Excavate trenches for piping and equipment with bottoms of trench to accurate elevations for support of pipe and equipment on undisturbed soil.
a. For pipes or equipment 6-inch or larger in nominal size, shape bottom of trench to fit bottom 1/4 of the circumference. Fill unevenness with tampered sand backfill. At each pipe joint over-excavate to relieve the bell or pipe joint of the pipe of loads, and to ensure continuous bearing of the pipe barrel on the bearing surface.
G. Cold Weather Protection: Protect excavation bottoms against freezing when atmospheric temperature is less than 35°F (2°C).
H. Backfilling and Filling: Place soil materials in layers to required subgrade elevations for each area classification listed below, using materials specified in Part 2 of this Section.
1. Under walks and pavements, use a combination of subbase materials and excavated or borrowed materials.
2. Under building slabs, use drainage fill materials.
3. Under piping and equipment, use subbase materials where required over rock bearing surface and for correction of unauthorized excavation.
4. For piping less than 30-inches below surface of roadways, provide 4-inch thick concrete base slab support. After installation and testing of piping, provide a 4-inch thick concrete encasement (sides and top) prior to backfilling and placement of roadway subbase.
5. Other areas, use excavated or borrowed materials.
I. Backfill excavation as promptly as work permits, but not until completion of the following:
1. Inspection, testing, approval, and locations of underground utilities have been recorded.
2. Removal of concrete formwork.
3. Removal of shoring and bracing, and backfilling of voids.

K. Before compaction, moisten or aerate each layer as necessary to provide optimum moisture content. Compact each layer to required percentage of maximum dry density or relative dry density for each area classification specified below. Do not place backfill or fill material on surfaces that are muddy, frozen, or contain frost or ice.
Renovate Squad OPS Page 11 of 11 FIRE PROTECTION
21 00 00 (202018) 2021 by FEI
L. Place backfill and fill materials evenly adjacent to structures, piping, and equipment to required elevations. Prevent displacement of piping and equipment by carrying material uniformly around them to approximately same elevation in each lift.
M. Compaction: Control soil compaction during construction, providing minimum percentage of density specified for each area classification indicated below:
1. Percentage of Maximum Density Requirements: Compact soil to not less than the following percentages of maximum density for soils which exhibit a well-defined moisture-density relationship (cohesive soils), determined in accordance with ASTM D 698 and not less than the following percentages of relative density, determined in accordance with ASTM D 4253 and ASTM D 4254, for soils which will not exhibit a well-defined moisture-density relationship (cohesionless soils).

Apply water in minimum quantity necessary to achieve required moisture content and to prevent water appearing on surface during, or subsequent to, compaction operations.
N. Subsidence: Where subsidence occurs at mechanical installation excavations during the period 12 months after Substantial completion, remove surface treatment (i.e., pavement, lawn, or other finish), add backfill material, compact to specified conditions, and replace surface treatment.
Restore appearance, quality, and condition of surface or finish to match adjacent areas.
3.5 CUTTING AND PATCHING
