PROJECT INFORMATION: Background: The United States Military Academy (USMA) is located at West Point, NY on the western bank of the Hudson River. The garrison at West Point, NY contains many notable and historic structures, including Bartlett Hall, which was originally constructed in 1913. Although undergoing a full building renovation (including seismic upgrades) between 2009 and 2011, the 4th floor must be converted from an archives material holding area to academic department collaboration space. In addition, the roof was not replaced during the 2009-2011 renovation and has fallen into disrepair. Bartlett Hall, constructed in 1913, is 351,719 square feet (SF) in total size. A 12,895 SF portion of the facility requires repair and restoration work. Bartlett Hall is identified as a historic resource in Headquarters Installation Information System (HQIIS), designated a "Monumental" structure by the DoD, and registered in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). A technical review of the deficiencies was completed and the work classification was verified. The USMA plan is to move the academic department of Geography and Environmental Engineering (GENE) into the converted space. Other facility alternatives to meet the personnel and administrative requirements were considered, however, the repair of Bartlett Hall was the only viable option due to limitations on development in the USMA Historic District and lack of existing available space on the USMA Central Area. No other options exist to meet the GENE mission. Major building systems and components that are failing, broken, or unserviceable include structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, fire protection, and communications. Any hazardous materials will be abated according to West Point, Federal, and State requirements. Scope: Bartlett Hall is a 4-story university building at the United States Military Academy. Today’s project includes three parts: Repair to the exterior courtyard wall, Replacement of portions of the roof, and an Interior renovation project on the 4th Floor. The 4th floor renovation includes demolition of the mezzanine and reconfiguring interior architecture and structural features. During demolition, any hazardous materials (HAZMAT), asbestos-containing material (ACM), and lead-based paint will be abated according to Federal and State requirements. These architectural/structural repairs include walls, doors, windows, floors, ceilings, lighting, and plumbing fixtures due to water intrusion and realignment with the Academic Building Upgrade Plan. The failed mechanical, plumbing, lightning protection, and fire protection systems will be repaired and appropriately sized. The electrical power system will be repaired to accommodate reconfiguration of spaces. The design drawings include 3 packages to address each part of the project. Courtyard Wall: Repair the damaged brick and limestone components, help to alleviate the movement forces identified with control and relief joints, and minimize moisture intrusion into the wall assembly through: reconstructing each of the (6) the brick pilasters (including the brick back-up); repairing oversailing parapet; performing roof and parapet coping repairs; replacing existing replacement-brick and damaged/cracked-bricks; repointing portions of bricks walls; extending flashing and providing drip below limestone water table; removing and replacing the course of brick below limestone to install flashing extension and drip; providing sealant and weeps; removing and re-sealing at window perimeters to limestone surrounds and replacing sealants at limestone surrounds to brick with mortar; providing vertical control joint at outside corner of west wall return; repairing Limestone Lintels above windows; and repairing and cleaning brick and limestone. Roof: Replace the roof assemblies in their entirety down to the existing roof deck. Provide adhered 5” polyisocyanurate insulation, tapered insulation to achieve ¼” per foot slopes, adhered 5/8” cover board, and 3 Ply-SBS modified bitumen roof assembly to achieve an average R-value of 30. Coat existing SBS modified bitumen roof assemblies and repairs areas with an elastomeric coating. Replace pavers with pedestal paver systems. Provide tapered crickets as required to create positive drainage to roof drains. Provide fall protection around existing roof hatches; provide fall arrest, fall restraint systems where necessary. Provide walkway pads from at ladders, doors, stairs and roof hatches to equipment including exhausts. Coordinate and install roof terminations in conjunction with coping stone re-setting work. Repair section of Yankee/ Box roof gutter in accordance with SMACNA standards. Remove and replace metal buttress enclosures. Divert masonry knee-wall and coping weeping to the exterior of metal enclosures. Provide plumbing vent extensions as needed to achieve 18” minimum vertical height above proposed roof elevations at roof replacements. Electrical circuit to units indicated for salvaging will be disconnected and protected during construction. Re-connect circuit upon reinstallation of units. Salvage existing condensers for re-install. Salvage & re-install existing antennae and other roof top equipment as needed to perform roof replacements and repairs. Reinstall exhausts; provide new properly sized roof curbs at exhaust fans as needed. Reinstall metal trims and flashings at transitions. Reinstall existing condensers on new curbs/ platforms as needed. Provide supports and re-install roof top conduits and equipment. Provide hinged mesh screen guards/ covers at open gutter systems (except at yankee gutter where there are existing dome strainers at inlets). Establish and document contractor staging areas. Salvage existing roof drain clamping rings for reinstall. Salvage, modify and reinstall existing stairs and ladders as needed to accommodate roof replacements. Interior Renovation: The academic office wing is organized in a “racetrack” style, with individual offices around the perimeter and shared offices, conference rooms, and collaboration spaces in the center. A sizeable classroom, currently serving the archives, will be re-imagined as a large collaboration space and conference room for a new academic department. Wall Systems will be Metal-stud partitions run from floor to deck, with sound batt insulation and additional layers of gypsum wall board as required for acoustic separation. The Interior Design Scheme Finishes include Forbo Flotex carpet alternative in collaboration spaces and conference rooms, resilient flooring in offices and hallways, and tile in toilet rooms. Walls will be Painted gypsum wall board partitions. Ceilings will be Acoustic Panel Ceilings (2x2 and 2x4) and gypsum wall board. The Renovation will include electrical lighting and outlets, telecom, plumbing, fire alarm, and mechanical systems.
