The Statement of Work (SOW) delineates requirements for the investigation and design of repairs to hangar doors at Buildings 1340 and 1362 at Eielson Air Force Base (AFB), Alaska. The Architect-Engineer (A-E) is tasked with assessing the inoperable hangar door in Building 1340, conducting a cost-benefit analysis, and proposing effective door replacements. In Building 1362, the A-E must address high maintenance issues of existing vertical fabric doors. Key project components include site investigations, hazardous material assessments, and developing both preliminary and complete design documents for proposed solutions. The scope includes remediation planning for identified hazardous materials, especially lead-based paint found in Building 1340.
The project is structured into four main tasks, each culminating in design milestone submissions (35%, 65%, 95%, and 100%) along with corresponding review conferences, ensuring iterative feedback and compliance with government standards. Deliverables consist of detailed design specifications, cost estimates, and environmentally compliant practices. The schedule outlines key timelines for each deliverable and review. This SOW reflects the Air Force’s commitment to enhancing facility operations and safety following applicable regulations and standards while managing project complexities efficiently.
The attached reports from SUNEX, Inc. outline the results of lead-based paint surveys conducted at Building 1340, Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, across multiple dates in 2002 and 2003. The primary purpose of these surveys was to assess the presence of lead-based paint to support renovation and maintenance efforts in the building. Utilizing a NITON 703A XRF Spectrum Analyzer, tests confirmed that no lead-based paint was detected in both interior and exterior components, with the exception of one identified fire hose connection on the E-NE side of the building that showed positive lead paint results. Key findings emphasize the absence of hazardous lead levels in tested areas, which is crucial for ensuring compliance with safety regulations and mitigating health risks. The documentation serves as a critical reference for ongoing and future maintenance activities, laying the groundwork for safety assurance in structural rehabilitation and management at the site.
C4 Doors conducted a field survey of two failing canopy tip-up hangar doors at Building 1340, Eielson AFB, Alaska, upon request from the Heritage-M2C1 Joint Venture. The survey, initiated after persistent operational failures post-2019 renovation, identified multiple deficiencies including misalignment of door cables, incorrect door section centering, and improper installation of hardware such as cable picking pins and sheave axle locks. The findings indicated the doors were not operationally safe.
The report outlines two recommendations for remediation: Option 1 entails a comprehensive overhaul to modernize the doors with a single drive counterweight system and associated upgrades. Option 2 proposes converting the hangar doors to a self-supporting bottom-rolling style, which would enhance durability and compliance with current standards. This option is also cost-effective and allows for quicker operation. The survey underscores the need for timely updates and maintenance to ensure functionality and safety of airport facilities.
