The FAA is conducting this Market Survey to determine the level of interest in the subject project. No contract of any kind will result from this announcement GENERAL The work described here is representative at best and is not all-encompassing of the project scope modernization and refurbishment of the Federal Aviation Administration’s Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) and Base Building located at the Denver International Airport. The ATCT is a 24/7 operational facility. This project is to complete the facility modernization; most of the work in the upper floors of the ATCT was completed before the original construction contract was terminated due to COVID in 2020. The ATCT and Base Building are constructed of architectural precast concrete panels. The ATCT panels cover cast-in-place concrete up to 240 feet in building elevation and above this level, the tower is constructed of precast panels over structural steel. Adjacent to the ATCT is the 3-story Base Building and the Mechanical / Cooling Tower Building. Coordination will be required with all Mechanical, Plumbing, and Fire Suppression refurbishment and replacement work, along with movement of parts, equipment and labor when using the ATCT’s elevator. Periods of sustained elevator usage will need to be coordinated with the facility so as to avoid impacting air traffic operations. Refurbishment will be designed and sequenced to prevent interruption of operations in the Base Building and ATCT, and may include night work. Any required interruption of services will require advanced scheduling and coordination with the responsible authorities and managers of the FAA and in some case the Denver International Airport. Estimated value is between $5,000,000.00 and $10,000,000.00. Architectural Work includes: Replacement of all interior finishes in the Base Building and stairways with Class A finishes. Penetrations and openings at fire-rated floor and wall assemblies will be repaired with the appropriate fire-stopping assemblies. Repair and refinishing of the exterior soffit at the ATCT Junction Level, approximately 22 stories above ground level Remodel Base Building restrooms and break rooms to meet ABA/ADA requirements. ABA/ADA compliant signage will be provided inside and outside of the stair enclosures. Handrails and metal stair tread riser panels will be added between ground level and junction level to the existing fire exit stairs in the ATCT. Replace new room signage in both the Base Building and ATCT. Remediate mold contamination, previously identified at interior walls and at perimeter unit heaters. Replace drywall in areas where it has been damaged by water, primarily due to leaking mechanically/plumbing systems. Replace backflow preventer, hose bibs, and valves. Remove and relocate water heater and mop sink, necessary to accommodate mold remediation work. Water closets, sinks and water coolers will be replaced and installed in compliance with the ABA/ADA accessibility requirements. Remediate exterior sealant joints at the 2nd Floor Base Building window perimeters due to water infiltration with a weeped two-stage joint added at the architectural concrete panel joints at the windows heads of the north and west facing windows. Fire and Life Safety Work includes repair or replacement to existing fire-rated walls and door assemblies, adjustment or replacement where damaged or deficient in order to restore fire ratings. Listed firestop assemblies will be provided where missing at all rated barriers. Provide UL approved fire-stopping assemblies at penetrations of fire rated walls and floor assemblies. Replace fire rated doors with full flush steel construction, minimum 1-3/4” thick. All exterior hollow metal doors and frames will be galvanized and insulated meeting NFPA 80 requirements. Provide flush, solid core wood doors with paint, veneer, or plastic laminate clad finish to match facility standard and meeting NFPA 80 requirements. Access Doors: Replace existing floor hatch at Cable Access level with fire rated hatch. Replace existing door knobs with ADA-ABA compliant levers. Provide power assist door openers and door closers at fire rated door assemblies and meeting NFPA 80A requirements. Install pre-finished steel semi-recessed Fire Extinguisher cabinets with solid doors and magnetic flashlight. Install stair access and fall protection atop of the diesel fuel tank and a guardrail around the access hatch to the cooling towers. Fire Suppression work includes: Maintenance and service to all existing fire suppression riser assemblies including new gaskets, valve packing replacement and verification of each risers operation. Provide releasing modules at each pre-action riser assembly. Install butterfly valves above each pre-action riser assembly. Replace sprinkler head escutcheons in ceiling. Provide automatic chemical suppression system at one (1) break room in the Base Building with a range hood with manual electric disconnect and manual suppression system activation. Replace existing ATCT fire pump. Add damper control and damper control strategy through DDC to the ATCT Stairwell as well as the fire alarm system. The sequence will interrupt the stair pressurization to allow occupancy. Fire Alarm work includes: Relocating the smoke detector in the supply ductwork of AHU-1 to be upstream of the duct humidifier. Fire alarm system devices where affected or modified, will be coordinated with the FAA Building Management and the local fire alarm control panel to avoid all trouble/alarm signals. The existing Fire Alarm System will be modified and/or expanded to include additional fire detection devices, release of sprinkler system detection, and notification devices including strobes, and combination horn/strobe appliances where deficiencies have been identified. The system devices will be addressable, non-coded, with sufficient capacity for required coverage. Manufacturer type will be compatible with existing system. Mechanical work includes: Below is a list of major mechanical equipment that is to be replaced as part of this project. This equipment will be identified in the project design documents and is not all encompassing of the project scope: Replacement of existing Air-Handling units in the Base Building. Replacement Existing Boiler units and Control Panels in the Base Building. Replacement Existing Hot Water System Pumps in the Base Building.
