EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On November 4, 2014, Brevard County voters approved a ½ cent sales tax for a 6 year period. This

revenue is specifically designated for School Security, Educational Technology and Facility Renewal. The

existing Cape View Elementary school project will be funded by this sales tax initiative, and; all of the

project requirements for the Design Build Team must incorporate facility renewal aspects assigned to

this campus. An overall project budget has been established at $1,634,684.00. Basic scopes of work are

identified in the attached Campus Capital Needs Sales Surtax Funded Detail Reports. In addition, further

requirements and design guidelines are described by discipline for each school.

Cape View Elementary School campus was constructed in 1964 and is located on 11 acres in Cape

Canaveral and consists of five original classroom buildings, an administration building, and ancillary

facilities under one roof; cafetorium building under separate roof and the campus has open corridors. A

separate building with four (4) classrooms was constructed later in 1964/1965. The current capacity of

the school is at 548 elementary student stations.

Cape View Elementary School Aerial Image

Most of the existing electrical and mechanical systems are in need of replacement. The campus has

limited accessibility for ADA compliance relative to restrooms and access to the stage. There are also a

few specific items with the building envelope that are in need of treatment.

END OF SECTION



ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN CRITERIA

GENERAL

Most of the Facility Renewal items are focused on the plumbing, mechanical and electrical portions of

the campus. Some of the following items were mentioned in the Facility Renewal document. Other

items were noted in the walkthrough for the preparation of this Design Criteria Package.

BUILDING ENVELOPE / EXTERIOR ITEMS

Exterior Windows

Steel lintels over window heads at Buildings #3 and #6 are rusted heavily along the exposed edges (see

photos). Repair of these conditions is needed in a manner which will be durable and lasting.

It is recommended to remove all rust from the exposed edge, treat the steel for further rust and then

cover the exposed edge to prohibit exposure to the atmosphere.

Concrete sills at Building #9 are spalling due to reinforcing steel rebar which has rusted. Details are

provided herein which addresses needed repairs for this condition.

Exterior Soffits

Concrete roof slabs which have exposed undersides (soffits, per se) are in need of repairs around

Buildings #2, #3, #6 and #7. Areas where the concrete has spalled due to reinforcing steel which has

expanded, must be addressed. This will require removal of all loose concrete and rusted rebar; the

treatment of rebar, which has been exposed, and patching of the concrete.

Other areas where rusted fasteners were installed into the soffits and remain, or were removed; require

removal of the entire rusted fastener and repair of the concrete divot which remains.

Thereafter, painting of all exposed concrete soffit areas, around all buildings, shall be completed.

INTERIOR ITEMS

Accessibility

The campus lacks accessibility to the stage and restrooms to serve those in need. This DCP includes

drawings which address areas to be upgraded for accessibility.

Remodel/Repairs

Existing suspended acoustical ceilings shall be removed/renovated where mechanical systems are to be

replaced with new ductwork, and dictate the ceiling should be removed to some degree. At those

locations, the grid and acoustical tiles shall be replaced unless removal of the grid is minimal. If grid

removal is minimal, all the acoustical tiles shall, as a minimum, be replaced.



CIVIL DESIGN CRITERIA

GENERAL

There are no civil-site items identified within the Facility Renewal documents.



STRUCTURAL DESIGN CRITERIA

GENERAL

The original buildings and subsequent additions generally appear to be in good shape and do not

warrant any significant structural modifications based on the field visit by Design Criteria team.

Identified within this DCP are repairs to window sills at Building #9, which amount to minor structural

repairs relative to the infill exterior wall segments.



FIRE PROTECTION DESIGN CRITERIA

There are no fire protection (sprinkler) system items.



MECHANICAL DESIGN CRITERIA

A. Existing Mechanical Systems

ELECTRICAL DESIGN CRITERIA

A. Existing Electrical System

1. The facility is served by a 480/277V, 3-phase electrical service, to a 1000 Amp Main Distribution Panel (MDP), located in the Mechanical/Electrical Room #503, and distributed to additional panels throughout the site. The MDP appears to be fairly new and in good condition; however, proper labeling has not been maintained per NEC and BPS standards. In this room is also the MCC that serves the chiller equipment, pumps and cooling tower. There are also some additional panels that have been added to accommodate additional loads added to throughout the campus.

The Cafeteria building is served by Panel K and Panel 803. Panel K appears to be original to the construction of the school and changes have been made over time. The panel is at maximum circuit breaker capacity and had tandem circuit breakers throughout. Panel 803 appears to have been added at some point to accommodate additional kitchen equipment and building loads.

The Office/Library building is served by panel LH. It appears the panel is original to the building. The panel is at maximum circuit breaker capacity and had tandem circuit breakers throughout.

Each of the classroom wings is served by a panel located within one of the Classrooms. All panels appear to be original to the building construction. Over the years changes have been made to accommodate additional loads to the buildings and all the panels are at maximum circuit breaker capacity. Building #3 has an additional panel that appears to have been added to accommodate a computer lab.

All panels are not clearly identified and circuit breakers poorly labeled.

2. The lighting around campus appears to be of uniform type and lamp color. Some areas still utilize incandescent fixtures (ie: small restroom between classrooms). Many of the exterior lighting under the building canopy appears be turned off or disconnect due to excess of lighting level.
