FLORIDA ARMY NATIONAL GUARD, CBJTC CACTF FIBER OPTIC CABLE INSTALLATION, PN SCOPE OF WORK, 28 MARCH 2012

Transcription

1 1. General. 1.1 The project will require the provisioning and installation of conduits, hand holes, pull boxes and fiber optic cable extending several miles from a point of beginning to the Combined Arms Collective Training Facility (CACTF) at the Camp Blanding Joint Training Center. 2. Location. 2.1 The installation will take place parallel to the west side of State Road 21 in the southeast section of the Camp Blanding Training Site, Clay County, Florida. 3. Installation of Conduit: 3.1. The entire conduit route will be designed with three (3) Direct Buried, 1-1/2 HDPE smooth wall conduits. The conduits will be equipped with pull tape and each will be a different color (Black, Gray and Orange). Bury at NLT 30 deep Install FOC Warning Tape in the conduit trench line 12" below grade The Pull Boxes will be installed and evenly divided between Hand Holes at approximately 600 to 700 intervals. The route will require the installation of six (6) 30" x 48" x 36" Hand Holes and twenty six (26) 17" x 30" x 24" Pull Boxes. All will be Quasite constructed, (Polymer Concrete), 22,000lb traffic rated, with bolts, open bottom and with the COMMUNICATIONS logo on the box tops. Six inches of white gravel will be installed in the bottom of each HH and PB. The conduits will sweep up under the outside walls at no more than a 45 degree angle. The box tops will be flush with the natural grade Install Six (6) vertical warning markers equipped with trace terminals at each HH. Install a #12 AWG insulated solid copper Trace Wire in the trench line. Connect trace wire to metallic trace points at each of the (6) Hand Holes There will be three (3) known road crossings, one at Gerble Road, one at Trail Gate Road and one at Mout Site Road. See Requirement paragraph

2 3.6. Camp Blanding has many unknown obstacles below grade. When preparing the proposal, the Contractor must consider the possibility of obstacles such as culverts, concrete boxes, man holes, etc. that may require additional excavation, directional boring or route alteration All measurements in this SOW are approximate. The contractor will confirm measurements and box locations with the Owner The existing Light Guide Cross Connect (LGX) on the north side of Treat Road is an OSP Enclosure that houses an active FOC extending critical government circuits to the world. Extreme care must be taken when working in and around the LGX. See attached drawings From the LGX, extend the conduits approx. 20 to the north and install HH-1. Core bore the LGX concrete pad and position the conduits so they do not extend up beyond the concrete pad From HH-1, install approx. 2,500' of the conduit route, east to State Road 21 and install Hand Hole HH-2 at the northwest corner of Treat Road and State Road From HH-2, continue north, on the inside of the east boundary fence line and on the west side of the power line, approx. 8,400 ' to the north side of Greble Road and install HH-3. The route will be installed adjacent to the tree line From HH-3, continue north, approx. 3,200' to the north side of Trail Gate Road and install Hand Hole HH From HH-4, continue north, approx. 4,000 to a point directly in front of the Radio Tower and install HH From HH-5, continue north approx. 1,000 to the north side of Mout Site Road and install HH Install HH-6 in a position to connect with a future conduit route extending west along the north side of Mout Site Road to the CACTF Range Operations Center/After Action Report Building (ROC/AAR). Owner will advise location The complete route will be approximately 19,100 in length and contain (6) Hand Holes and (26) Pull Boxes. 2.

3 4. Installation of Fiber Optic Cable: 4.1. Beginning at the LGX, install a 24 strand, Loose Tube, Single Mode, OSP Fiber Optic Cable to HH-6 at the intersection of State Rd 21 and Mout Site Rd Leave a 50 splice coils in Hand Holes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and It is preferred that the complete cable route be installed with no more than one (1) intermediate splice. Hand Hole 3 at Gerble Road will be the splice point The cable and conduit will end at HH-6. The contract will include an additional length of cable to extend west from HH-6 on Mout Site Road approximately 4,000 to the future location of the CACTF/ ROC/AAR Building. This length of cable will be delivered to the Owner on a reel for future installation. Measure for exact length to include (3) 50 splice coils The existing Treat Road Gate Light Guide Cross Connect (LGX) is equipped with a 19 Equipment Rack and a Fiber Distribution Panel (FDP). Port space is available for (24) SC connectors. The Contractor must verify the type of existing FDP to assure SC port compatibility. All splices will be fusion. 5. Requirements Conduit will be buried a minimum of 30" below grade. Avoid undulations All excavated areas will be returned to a state of normal landscape appearance Install duct plugs in all conduits Pull tape will be minimum 1250lb strength Trace wire insulation will be designed for direct burial There will be 24 fusion splices at the LGX and 24 fusion splices at HH-3. 3.

4 5.7 Some section of the route will be in close proximity to buried utilities, telephone and fiber optic cables. Extreme care must be taken. Hand digging will be required until the areas are cleared The contractor will be responsible for repair of damage to customer property The contractor will sign an Agreement of Responsibility for the Restoration of Damaged Cables that were previously identified and marked The Owner will locate Government owned cables, however, the planned route will parallel numerous active, buried, fiber and telephone cables that belong to AT&T. The contractor will call Sunshine Cable Locating, for locates. Hand digging will be required in some areas Roads and driveways covered with compacted Easy Base will be crossed by trenching. Keep Easy Base material separated during excavation. Firmly repack cover soil and the top layer of Easy Base upon completion All conduit and cable routings will meet the prevailing local codes, National Electrical Code (NEC) and BICSI standards The contractor will have a BICSI certified RCDD on site to supervise the installation A site visit will be required by the contractor before submitting bid. 6. Materials: Shipping, Storage and Billing The contractor will furnish all materials The contractor will cover the cost for shipping and storage of materials on site. The contractor is responsible to ensure all materials arrive in good working order and ready for service The contractor will be responsible for security of stored materials, equipment and tools. The Owner will have no liability for missing items The Owner will review submittals before purchased. 4.
