7 CIVIL - SITE Introduction This report provides the results of the Civil/Site assessment of the above referenced school performed by Pacheco Koch Consulting Engineers, Inc. (PKCE) The Civil /Site assessment consisted of: 1) a site visit for a visual evaluation; and 2) a meeting between Weatherford ISD faculty members and PKCE staff, focused on the following items: 1. Paving 2. Surface Drainage 3. Accessible Route / Parking. Utilities (no subsurface verified during site visit) 5. Erosion Based on observed conditions, recommended improvements for each of the deficiencies identified have been accompanied with estimated quantities and an opinion of probable construction cost, to be used as a budgetary tool. Site Visit: March 18, 201 On the above date, PKCE personnel visited Bill W. Wright Elementary to observe the items discussed above. The table below shows each deficiency found, the photograph number, an estimated quantity, a unit cost, and a construction cost estimate. Meeting with Weatherford ISD Staff On Tuesday, April 1, 201, PKCE personnel met with representatives of the School District s Maintenance Department to learn about any known issues that may not be discovered/visible during the site visit and to gain historical/current knowledge of the site. During the meeting, the following Civil/Site issues were brought up for Bill W. Wright Elementary: There are existing surface drainage issues around the portable buildings. An accessible route/ramp is desired at the rear entrance. The asphalt pavement in the south parking lot is in poor condition due to age. The irrigation system throughout the site is minimal, and has led to erosion issues. Specifically, in the landscape area at the southwest corner of the building. Insufficient turning radius for school buses at southwest corner of building. The buses are constantly driving through the grass in this area. Concrete utility vaults have settled around the southeast corner of the building. Installation of perimeter fencing around the playground area is desired. 5

31 ENGINEERING REPORT - MECHANICAL / ELECTRICAL / PLUMBING Wright Elementary was originally built in 1979, and has had subsequent additions since that time. The original air conditioning systems were generally DX air handling units (either single zone or multizone) that utilized hot water heating. The gymnasium was originally not air conditioned (heated only), but has since been provided with cooling by means of split system a/c units. The various additions have been conditioned by package rooftop a/c units. In some cases these units get their required outside air from separate package rooftop outside air preconditioning units, while others draw their required outside air directly. The systems serving the original portion of the building no longer meet current code requirements, while the remainder of the systems have either reached the end of their useful life or are nearing that time. Our recommended upgrades are listed below. Building electrical service is 120/208 volt, 3 phase, wire, 3000 amp () main service disconnect, served from power company pad-mounted transformer. Equipment is manufactured by Federal Pacific Electric (FPE). The building interior lighting system utilizes predominantly T12 fluorescent lamps. Gym lighting consists of T12 lamps, and the exterior lights are HID type. The 2000 Addition & Library are illuminated with T8 type fixtures. The building is equipped with an addressable type fire alarm system manufactured by Simplex, Model 005. The system is not code-compliant and is a proprietary system. There are no devices in any of the classrooms. MECHANICAL: Provide new fire sprinkler system in original building sections for safety concerns. In order to improve overall efficiency and maintenance concerns, in the 2001 addition classrooms remove outside air preconditioning units and replace all existing rooftop a/c units with new more efficient units that provide their own outside air. Thoroughly clean and overhaul all existing air handling units throughout the building. This would include (but not be limited to) cleaning the cooling and heating coils to improve heat transfer and replacing inefficient motors and/or drives. Replace existing gymnasium split system a/c units with new rooftop a/c units with gas heating in order to improve maintenance access and improve efficiency. To reduce rusting and avoid premature failure, paint all exposed gas piping on the roof. Install service and isolation valves in gas and water piping to avoid major system shut-downs for minor repairs. Over the next 5 years, replace all existing air-cooled condensing unit sections of split-system a/c systems. This would include the single zone cafeteria system and the multizone classroom wings. Over the next 6 to 10 years, replace all remaining rooftop a/c units serving the 2001 addition. (Kitchen, Library, corridors, etc.) ELECTRICAL: Replace old fire alarm system with new addressable type, including all new fire alarm devices, horns and strobes throughout the building for code compliance. Replace all light fixtures using T12 lamps with T8 type for energy savings. Replace Gym lights with T5HO fluorescent fixtures or LED type for energy savings. Provide parking lot lighting utilizing LED type fixtures. Replace and provide additional wall pack fixtures utilizing LED type for energy savings. Provide occupancy sensors in classrooms and offices for automatic lighting shut-off as required by the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) for effective energy savings. Replace all Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels and main switchgear with new. The existing equipment is obsolete and very hard to get replacement parts. Provide surge protection device (SPD) at main service panel. 29

35 ENGINEERING REPORT - STRUCTURAL Further study is recommended to determine if the unreinforced masonry will have any net axial tension or excessive flexural tension under code required design wind forces, which is not permitted by the code. Retrofitting new structural components may be recommended. Further Study is recommended to determine if the structural unreinforced masonry has cracked behind wall finishes such as interior coverings and exterior veneers due to foundation movement. Repair of such cracks or retrofitting new structural components may be recommended. Repairing all known cracks in all structural unreinforced masonry due to foundation movement is recommended. If any modification to the Unreinforced Masonry is desired, Special Analysis will be required and significant Architectural and Structural limitations may be required. Further Study is recommended to determine if there is sufficient lateral anchorage at the top of all exterior unreinforced masonry walls that are parallel to roof joists. Installing lateral restraints may be recommended after further study. Further study is recommended to determine the design and condition of the connectors between wythes. Installing new connectors may be recommended after study. Further Study is recommended to determine if installation of new bottom chord net uplift horizontal bridging angles along the ends of the steel joist is required. Installing new bottom chord net uplift horizontal bridging angles along the ends of the steel joist is recommended when an opportunity presents itself such as a building remodel. 33
