File Summary

This is a comprehensive set of 100% construction documents (IFC phase) for the replacement of underground water storage tanks at Overton Brooks VA Medical Center in Shreveport, Louisiana (VA Project 667-22-118). The drawings package includes civil, structural, architectural, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical plans prepared by a design-build consortium led by Design Build Consortium LLC with multiple engineering and architectural firms as subconsultants.

The project scope encompasses the replacement of two 41-foot interior diameter underground water storage tanks (each 300,000 gallons capacity) with associated infrastructure including an analyzer building, retaining walls, site grading, drainage systems, piping networks, and electrical systems. Key civil components include: demolition of existing site features; construction of MSE retaining walls with geogrid reinforcement; installation of two precast concrete tanks with foundations on auger pressure-grouted piles (minimum 30 feet deep); concrete slabs, drives, and sidewalks; erosion control and stormwater management systems; 124-135 linear feet of 6-foot chainlink fencing; and site restoration. The analyzer building (approximately 22 feet by 27 feet) features CMU construction with brick veneer, TPO roofing, metal canopy, and will house water quality monitoring equipment including three Hach analyzers for chlorine and pH monitoring, level controllers, temperature transmitters, and flow meters. Plumbing systems include 6-inch domestic water supply lines, 10-inch discharge lines to the hospital, overflow piping, drain systems, and connections to existing fire suppression systems with thrust block details. Electrical work requires underground conduit runs, new panelboards (480V and 208V), lighting fixtures, emergency systems, surveillance rough-in, submersible pump motor connections, and instrumentation wiring with connections to the Johnson Controls BAS system. The project document was issued November 17, 2023 as 100% construction documents and includes coordinate tables, design parameters, material specifications, and detailed construction sequencing notes.
