EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

In July of 2014, the Santa Monica Unified School District discovered structural damage
to roof trusses at the auditorium of the John Adams Middle School. Repair of structural
damage is subject to review by the Division of the State Architect (DSA), the agency that
reviews plans for alterations to public school facilities. As such, the District began the
process of establishing a full scope for the repair project. It was understood early in the
process that other non-compliant conditions in the building would be of concern to DSA.

It is also relevant to note that the existing auditorium is compromised in its ability to
effectively support the functions and events held there. Dated equipment, poor acoustics,
and operational deficiencies present challenges to its use. The purpose of this study is to
assess the magnitude of other existing conditions that should be addressed in a repair
project while also defining the magnitude of replacing the building with new construction.

There are three primary options presented in this study. First, we present an assessment
of a repair project that would address the structural issues, accessibility compliance issues,
fire / life safety issues, and a base level of operational issues. The second option presents
a new building of similar size and base level of amenity. There are two variations of the
second option that vary the height of the building. Finally, a third option is an ideal scenario
for replacing the building. It is defined in response to school needs as well as a potential
partnership with Santa Monica College. It is larger and outfit with a more complete array of
technology and equipment to operate a facility that could be a valuable community asset.

It should be noted that these three options represent unique options to provide a
reasonable comparison. It is possible and, perhaps likely, that the SMMUSD can choose to
define a target project that is a hybrid of the options presented.

The NAC Architectural and Engineering team inspected the facility and associated structural,
mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems to investigate the feasibility of
the proposed repair and replacement options. The findings of each discipline are presented
independently within this document as well as a budgetary Opinion of Probable Cost.

The feasibility study concludes that the Auditorium can be repaired at significant cost or
replacement options are available at higher cost. The decision that must be made by the
District is to determine if it is worthwhile to make a significant investment in a structure
that remains compromised to perform its defined function. It is hoped that this document
provides the necessary information to make an informed decision. The team remains
available to further support this decision process.

John Adams Middle School Auditorium
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

INTRODUCTION

The Auditorium at John Adams Middle School is a concrete and wood frame structure
with a commanding presence on the north side of the campus. This tallest building on
campus was designed in 1940 and then constructed after WW11 in 1948. The school has
used the facility since its construction until a failure in a portion of one of the roof trusses
observed in 2014 closed the building to student use. Our team of architecture and
engineering professionals began our investigation into the future of this building with a
10 thorough examination of the existing conditions. These findings are presented below by
discipline.
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

ARCHITECTURAL

Architectural evaluation of the existing building includes issues of handicapped


accessibility, life safety and building exiting, configuration, supporting of the drama and
musical programs, and general conditions of finishes and building elements.

Significant challenges with the existing building are layout-based in nature, and will take
considerable modernization and new construction measures to address. Many of these
stem from a design that was compliant with the codes and regulations when the building
was built in the 1940’s, or remodeled in later years, but is no longer compliant with
11
today’s regulations.

• One of the existing building’s features lending itself to the auditorium’s presence on
the JAMS campus is its elevation above grade. The primary entry to the auditorium sits
15 steps above the expansive lawn to the west. This elevated entry however is also the
most significant issue challenging compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act
and associated building codes. The steps deem this entry inaccessible, and the Division
of the State Architect (DSA) requires that the primary entrance to public buildings be
accessible. The addition of a ramp entry could resolve this particular issue; however
it would not address remaining access issues throughout the building once the front
entry has been reached. Additionally the ramp would be excessive in length to achieve
the required maximum slopes – approximately 115 feet.
ASSESSMEMT OF EXISTING BUILDING

ARCHITECTURAL

• The slope of the aisles and main floor of the auditorium are too steep to permit
accessible travel to a range of seating positions. Current code requires that a variety of
viewing positions be provided for persons with disabilities to ensure their access to a
reasonable selection of seats at differing locations.

• Currently access to the stage from the audience is provided via two side stairs and a
12 wheelchair lift. The wheelchair lift provides an accessible path for an audience member
to reach the stage, however neither of the side stairs comply with minimum code
clearance requirements.

• Throughout the building doors do not have the required push and pull side door
clearances mandated.

• The current control booth is located in the mezzanine at the back of the auditorium.
This room can only be reached via a set of stairs, deeming the control booth an
inaccessible space. This limits opportunities for people with disabilities to participate in
productions.

• The existing restrooms at the sides of the stage (accessed from the workrooms) are
too small to accommodate the required clearances to be considered accessible. The
location of these restrooms makes it impossible to adequately enlarge them without
compromising other functions.

• The existing restrooms at the lobby are also not accessible. Space at these locations
would permit a modernization that could solve the accessibility issues however this
would result in less plumbing fixtures than the building currently has, which are already
below code-required minimums.

• The existing drinking fountains or their associated alcoves do not meet the current
code’s requirements for height, size, or clearances.
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

ARCHITECTURAL

Other issues stem from layout/design that no longer serves the needs of the school.
These substantial issues are outlined below.

• The current stage’s height, size and lack of usable wing spaces greatly limit the ability
of users to product sophisticated programs. The lack of catwalks and similar technical
spaces restricts many lighting, video and audio designs to be realized.

• The hard surfaces of the flat walls in the auditorium provide little in terms of necessary
13
reflection or absorption of sound.

• The current building does not offer storage or dressing room spaces for performers.

The layout/design issues outlined above represent the more substantial challenges in
a modernization project for this building than the aesthetic corrections. The proposed
solutions to these items are further explored later in this feasibility report.
ASSESSMEMT OF EXISTING BUILDING

ARCHITECTURAL

The architectural finishes on both the exterior of the building and throughout the interior
spaces show evidence of age and use.

• Cracked plaster and paint on the exterior are evident.

• Cracks, peeling or missing paint and dents appear in the interior walls.
14
• Some floor rot at the front of the auditorium is evident.

• Tilework, plumbing fixtures, and similar finish items are beyond their useful life and
replacement of these is recommended should a modernization project be undertaken.

These issues with the building’s condition however are largely aesthetic, and could be
addressed in a modernization project only.
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

STRUCTURAL

The auditorium design was completed in 1940. Construction was delayed until after
WWII. The building consists of an auditorium, originally with seating for 704, a stage, a
large classroom and support spaces. Four wood bow string trusses span the 60 foot wide
seating area. Wood roof and ceiling joists span the 18 feet between the trusses. The 21
foot tall walls are built with wood 2x8s. The roof and walls are covered with 1x6 diagonal
wood sheathing. The 3-ply roof membrane has been maintained in good condition. The
outside walls are covered in stucco. The inside ceiling and walls are covered in plaster. 15
The walls around the stage are reinforced cast concrete, probably built that way to
provide a fire barrier. The raised floor is supported by 2x wood joists spanning between
short wood framed stem walls. Cast concrete spread footings are used throughout the
building. See drawing S-1 of the building.

In 2000-2002 plans were approved to renovate the auditorium as part of the SMMUSD
Modernization Program. The completed construction included creating accessible
entrances at the front of the stage/seating area from the campus and Pearl Street sides,
adding/reworking roof drains, adding sprinklers over the stage, adding smoke vents
above the stage and upgrading the fire alarm/smoke detection systems. A portion of the
contingency budget was used for structural remediation of the wood bow string trusses.

On July 30, 2014, structural failure of Truss #2 (the 2nd from the west) was observed.
The bottom chord consisting of 2-2x12s split and separated approximately 4 inches. See
photo S-1. The failure of the bottom chord pushed the top of the north wall out about
2½ inches and the top of the south wall about 1½ inches. Secondary to the bottom chord
failure, the top chord failed. Shoring was installed under failed Truss #2. Truss #1 showed
signs of distress and was also shored. Subsequent analysis indicates that the structural
design was consistent with good practice at the time of original construction. The long
term load on the trusses is in excess of current California Building Code standards.

MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, PLUMBING + FIRE PROTECTION

MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

The basis of design (BOD) of the heating, ventilating and conditioning (HVAC) systems
will identify the existing mechanical system serving the current Auditorium Building and
will provide HVAC options for the modernization of the existing Auditorium Building
as well as a new Auditorium Building. The BOD will address the overall objective of
18 providing a system that meets the occupants’ needs, provides a safe environment, and
accommodates changes in the building operation. The proposed mechanical system will
include an air-handling system(s), exhaust fans, air distribution systems, and controls. The
building systems will provide heating, ventilation, and air conditioning in conformance
with applicable codes and any documented school/campus standards.

Mechanical System - Existing

The original section of the Auditorium is served by a constant volume air handling unit
with gas-fired heating only. This unit provides heating and ventilation only and does not
include a cooling component. The unit is located in the mezzanine above the lobby and
serves only the auditorium and stage area. Supply ductwork is routed overhead to serve
these spaces. Return is accomplished via multiple floor registers below the auditorium
sloped floor as well as two registers in the corners of the stage. This unit appears original
to the building and has well exceeded its useful life. As such, this unit is intended to be
demolished if the building undergoes a modernization.

The existing H&V unit includes only start/stop capabilities and has original pneumatic
controls. There is no central DDC control system within the building.

The other rooms within the original building do not have any other means of HVAC.

The classroom addition to the building was provided with gas-fired furnaces located in
the corners of the room. These pieces of equipment provide only a heating element and
are not used for ventilation as seen in the auditorium area. These units operate via a local
thermostat and are not tied into a central DDC control system. The layout for this space
would be modernized with an HVAC system instead of a heating-only element as currently
installed. These units are original to the building and have well exceeded their useful life.
As such, these are intended to be demolished if the building undergoes a modernization.

There are no other mechanical systems located in this building. This includes the
restrooms, which do not have any means of mechanical exhaust via exhaust fans. The
restrooms only include operable windows.
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, PLUMBING + FIRE PROTECTION

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

Power

Electrical service to the existing Auditorium building currently consists of two distribution
feeders coming from the main switchboard in Room 76 of Building L. The existing feeders
consist of (1) 208Y/120V, 400A feed and (1) 208Y/120V, 100A feed. The 400A electrical 19
switchboard is by Square D. It utilizes fusible switches rather than circuit breakers, but is
clean and in good working order. The 100A electrical panel is also by Square D. It utilizes
circuit breakers and is clean and in good working order. The 500A service to the building
is adequate for the existing load, however the panels would need to be metered in use
to see how much spare capacity are on the panels and if they could handle the additional
load added as a part of a remodel.

Lighting

Lighting for the existing Auditorium consists of fluorescent wrap around fixtures in the
classroom addition and incandescent lamps in the Auditorium auxiliary spaces. There
appear to be LED retrofit lamps for the house lights in the auditorium itself. Controls
consist of mostly manual controls with some occupancy sensors as well. Neither the
lighting, nor the controls meet the current California energy code and will need to be
upgraded in total.

The building also does not have the required emergency lighting at the necessary point of
egress locations on the building exterior. This would need to be added if the building is to
remain
.
Fire Alarm

Fire alarm system for the existing Auditorium is a Simplex addressable system. It is a
dated installation and is not fully automatic as it is missing smoke and heat detectors
in some required locations. It also does not have a voice evacuation system which is
required for K-12 schools per the current code.
ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDING

MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, PLUMBING + FIRE PROTECTION

PLUMBING SYSTEMS

The existing plumbing systems are original to the building and have reached their useful
life. In addition it appears that the existing domestic water services and fire water service
are not adequately sized, nor properly provided with backflow prevention per the current
codes.
20
In addition, the gas service appears undersized and the piping has reached its useful life.

As such, any renovation of the building include a complete demolition of all related
plumbing piping, fixtures, and appurtenances.

FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM

The existing auditorium is only partially provided with automatic fire sprinkler coverage.
Fire sprinkler cabinets were installed in the original construction of the building at the
entrance to the auditorium from the lobby. In addition, fire sprinkler heads were added
to the building in a 2002 renovation which included wet pipe sprinklers in the stage and
adjacent workroom spaces. It is anticipated that under the current California Building/
Fire Code, the entire auditorium will need coverage. The existing fire water for the hose
cabinets enters the building at the south end of the building, near the DCW connection.
The fire sprinklers added to the stage area are served from a branch near the north side
of the building. The existing lines are undersized to serve the building and would need to
be upsized.

INTRODUCTION

Three primary options are presented in this study for consideration. These options are
referred to Scenarios 1, 2 and 3.

Scenario 1 is a modernization and addition project. In this proposed scope of work


the existing auditorium building undergoes renovation work to address Access, Fire-
Life Safety and Structural deficiencies as identified under current Building Codes.
22 Modernization measures to address acoustics, equipment and performance ability are
also addressed. A building addition immediately adjacent to the existing building north
façade provides accessible entrances to the auditorium space as well as code compliant
restrooms and support space.

Scenario 2 is a new building project that provides a similar program of spaces to that of
the existing building. The seat count in the auditorium is estimated at 660. The stage
size and height exceed that of the existing building to provide ‘industry standard’ sized
performance space/abilities. A deduct alternate of this Scenario is also presented in
order to understand the difference in cost if the building height were to match that of the
existing building.

Scenario 3 is also a new building project that provides a higher level of amenities and
spaces than the Scenario 2 building. Seating capacity is estimated at 750 seats. The
building includes band and choral classrooms in addition to the orchestra classroom from
the prior Scenarios to create an inclusive facility serving all performing arts functions at
the school.

All three scenarios are described further in depth below by discipline.

Note that the Plumbing Basis of Design reports that the piping materials used for many
utility lines serving the existing building are beyond their useful life and that the material/
sizing does not meet the needs of the current building. We therefore recommend that
all piping be removed and replaced for the entire branch line that serves the auditorium,
back to its’ connection with the main line. An allowance for this work is included in all of
the cost estimates.

SCENARIO 1 | Architectural

The description of the scope of work for Scenario 1 is split into spaces to be renovated
in the Existing Building and new spaces to be built in the Addition. Refer to the program
spreadsheet for the size breakdown of spaces.

EXISTING BUILDING

Auditorium
23
It is estimated that 82 seats of the 688 current seat count will need be removed to install
wall-mounted acoustic panels, to accommodate space for ADA seating and to construct
an Audio/Visual control console. At locations of seat removal, small platforms will be
constructed on top of the existing floor to provide flat areas. All other seats will remain.
Carpet will be provided at non-seating areas to aid in acoustic performance.

The north and south interior walls will receive shaped wall panels to help reflect sound.
The wall panels are anticipated to be painted gypsum board or a veneer over plywood
mounted on light gauge steel framing suspended from the existing walls. Variable
acoustic curtains will help absorb sound. Two openings in the existing north wall will be
created to provide access from the new building addition housing a new lobby to the
front of the auditorium and the middle. Small light/sound locks will be constructed to
create a separation from the auditorium space to the new lobby.

The existing plaster ceiling in the auditorium will be removed in its entirety to permit
structural repairs and installation of new mechanical systems, lighting, fire alarm and
fire sprinkler systems. A new gypsum board ceiling will be installed. Suspended panels
with hard reflective surfaces or soft absorptive surfaces may also be added to aid with
acoustics. A catwalk will be added in front of the stage to provide lighting positions.

At the rear of the auditorium some of the seats to be removed that are mentioned above
will facilitate the addition of a small control console area from where audio and video
systems will be controlled. Some lockable storage will be provided. If structural analysis
shows that openings can be placed in the existing back wall of the auditorium then one
of the two existing storage spaces at that location will be converted to provide a locked
space accessible from the lobby with access through to the control booth console. If
structural analysis does not permit openings to be cut in the back wall, then access to the
control booth console will be from within the auditorium at one side.
3 SCENARIOS

SCENARIO 1 | Architectural

Stage/Workrooms

The existing ‘free-standing’ counterweight line sets will be removed. (IMG_0125) A new
counterweight rigging system of approximately 4 line sets will be installed. The rigging
system will allow scene drops and lighting to be hung, but will not have a full fly loft due
to the existing height restraints of the building. The two existing single restrooms on
24 either side of the stage that are accessed from the workrooms will be demolished in
their entirety and the areas incorporated into the side workrooms. A new door from
each workroom will be placed to provide access to the hallway behind the stage. It is
understood that the fire doors at the openings between the stage and the workrooms
are currently not in working order. They will be evaluated to determine if repair or
replacement is needed.

Neither of the existing stairs providing access to each side of the stage from the
auditorium complies with accessibility requirements. One of these stairs and the
associated doors/walls will be re-worked to provide accessible access to the stage. Since
space is at a premium at these locations a potential solution to be investigated by the
design team and the District is the use of a Combination Stairway /Wheelchair Lift. These
products have been approved by DSA on previous modernization projects. Rot has
been observed at the junction of the front edge of the stage and the auditorium floor.
Demolition of the damaged portions of the stage front, associated framing and the
auditorium flooring and in-kind replacement will be required.

Orchestra Classroom

The existing orchestra classroom has a movable partition wall in the center to split the
space in half when needed, however this feature is no longer used. The partition wall and
all accessories will be removed. A/V upgrades will be provided along with some additional
casework for storage needs.

Lobby/Reception

The interiors of the men’s and women’s restrooms accessed from the existing lobby
will be demolished in their entirety. The space of the men’s restroom will be converted
to a storage room while the space of the women’s restroom will create an access point
between the new building addition to the north and the existing lobby space.

Ticket Office

The exterior of the existing ticket office cannot be reached from an accessible path on
campus without entering the building. Two solutions to this issue are:

1. Keep the ticket office in its’ current location and create an interior ticket window to
the existing lobby space. This would require all ticket-purchasers to gain access inside
3 SCENARIOS

SCENARIO 1 | Architectural

the building prior to ticket purchase.


2. Convert the current ticket office to storage or another usable space and provide a
new ticket office along the exterior wall of the new building addition. This ticket office
could be accessed from the interior or exterior of the new building addition depending
on District preference and would have exterior ticket window.

Mezzanine Spaces
25
The current mezzanine houses a small control room which is not accessible. This will be
converted to a location for a follow spot light to be used by technical personnel. Pending
structural analysis on the rear wall of the auditorium, the existing openings will be
increased in size.

SCOPE OF WORK: NEW ADDITION

An addition will be constructed to the north of the existing structure. The addition will
be steel framed construction, seismically separated from the existing structure above
the foundation level. See the structural narrative for further information on expected
structural systems. The size of the addition is estimated at 2,500 sf, with rough overall
dimensions of 110’ in the east-west direction by 23’ in the north-south direction. Exterior
cladding is expected to be a combination of plaster and curtainwall glazing/doors.
Building height will be approximately 20’ to the top of parapet.

Program in the new addition consists of:

- Lobby
- Multi-stall student restrooms
- Individual faculty restrooms
- Individual unisex restroom accessed from (e) stage workroom
- Electrical, data, custodian support space

See the program breakdown for proposed space sizes.

Connections between the existing building and the new addition will occur at four
locations along the north wall of the existing building. Refer to the floor plan diagram.
The floor level of the new addition will be sloped and/or stepped to achieve accessible
access to all the levels in the existing building listed above.

SCENARIO 2 | Architectural

Scenario 2 proposes a new building to house similar spaces as the current building.
Refer to the program spreadsheet for the listing and sizes of anticipated spaces. The
footprint of the Scenario 2 building will exceed that of the existing building. A portion of
the existing lawn area to the west of the auditorium will be utilized to accommodate the
additional footprint area.

Auditorium
29
Seating capacity is estimated at 660 seats for Scenario 2. Floor slope will be calculated to
meet ADA requirements while also providing view lines to the performance stage from
all areas. CMU or cast-in-place concrete is anticipated for primary wall construction. The
mass of these materials will aid in providing better acoustics within the space. Additional
suspended light-gauge framed wall panels with gypsum board or veneer finish will reflect
sound and help define the spaces and viewing angles. Acoustic curtains with adjustable
deployment may be needed. Light and sound locks will be utilized at all entry points to
the auditorium to create separation from adjacent spaces.

Suspended below the roof structure and obscuring most of the view to the roof structure
by audience members will be a system of technical catwalks and suspended shaped
panels with hard reflective surfaces or soft absorptive surfaces to address acoustics
as recommended by an acoustician. Mechanical systems, lighting, fire alarm and
fire sprinkler systems will also all be worked into the space below the roof. Catwalk
construction will be steel framed and catwalks will be accessed via caliper spaces or back-
of-house locations. Anticipated height from the stage floor to top of the parapet at the
house is 40’.

At the upper level of seating at the back of the auditorium a control booth for audio
and video systems will be provided. The control booth will consist of a lockable room
for storing equipment as well as a console open to the house chamber. An elevator will
provide access to the upper level seats and control booth.

Stage

The stage is sized to accommodate a performance area of 36’ deep by 40’ wide and a
proscenium height of 19’-6”. Wing spaces of approximately 22’ on either side of the
proscenium opening provide space for a standard rigging system. Anticipated height
from the stage floor to top of the parapet at the stage volume is 53’-0”. This height
permits scenes to be flown completely above the proscenium opening. A grid iron
constructed of steel members at approximately 40’ above the stage floor will support the
theatrical rigging system. Line sets will be a combination of manual and electric.
3 SCENARIOS

SCENARIO 2 | Architectural

Orchestra Classroom

The orchestra classroom will match the size of the classroom in the existing auditorium
building. Acoustic paneling on walls may be used. A teaching wall containing storage,
whiteboard, and A/V connections will be concentrated on one wall to allow the rest of the
space to be left open and flexible. No built-in risers will be used in favor of flexibility.
30
Lobby

A public lobby will provide entry to the auditorium in addition to serving as a small
gathering space for use by the school. The lobby size is calculated proportionally based
on the auditorium seat count.

Restrooms and Support Spaces

Fully accessible restrooms for both students and staff will be located in the lobby, along
with support custodial space. Additional single restrooms accessed from the stage could
be provided for use by performers. Electrical, IDF and minimal general storage are also
provided.

SCENARIO 2 | Architectural

SCENARIO 2 – ALTERNATE DEDUCT

For comparison purposes a deduct alternate was prepared to approximate the cost
of a Scenario 2 building that consisted of a stage and house with the same heights as
the existing building. This is a theoretical scenario only since it would not be astute to
design and construct an industry standard sized stage without the height needed to allow
scenes, lights, etc. to be flown full-height which maximizes the potential of the fully sized
stage.
31

The Alternate deduct scenario includes the same programmed spaces as Scenario 2 at the
same sizes. (refer to Program spreadsheet). The building’s height at the stage and house
differs however as detailed below:

• Stage floor level to the top of the roof parapet at the Stage
Scenario 2 53’-0”
Deduct Alternate 31’-6” (matches existing building height)
21’-6” difference

• Stage floor level to the top of the roof parapet at the House
Scenario 2 40’-0”
Deduct Alternate 29’-6” (matches existing building height)
10’-6” difference

Due to less available fly space above the proscenium opening, the rigging system in the
alternate deduct includes less capability than that included in Scenario 2.

The estimated reduction realized in the Alternate Deduct is just under $600,000 in Direct
Costs. Refer to the Opinion of Probable Cost for more detail.

SCENARIO 3 | Architectural

Scenario 3 proposes a new building to house the full range of performing arts spaces for
John Adams Middle School in one location. Currently on campus the choral and band
programs are housed in Building J which is located directly to the east of the auditorium.
Scenario 3 proposes the demolition of both the Auditorium Building and Building J to
facilitate the construction of a new Performing Arts building at this north end of the JAMS
campus. Joint-use of the auditorium with Santa Monica College and the community
at large is anticipated. Refer to the program spreadsheet for the listing and sizes of
anticipated spaces. The footprint of the Scenario 3 building will occupy the full areas on
33
campus that currently houses the Auditorium and Building J and a portion of the existing
lawn area to the west of the auditorium.

Auditorium

Seating capacity is estimated at 750 seats for Scenario 3. A cross aisle will be used to
divide the space into a front seating area of approximately 450 seats on a lesser sloped
slab-on-grade with 300 seats above. Seating positions complying with ADA requirements
will be provided at multiple locations throughout the auditorium to provide a range of
options for people with disabilities to view performances.

A combination of CMU, cast-in-place concrete and steel is anticipated for primary wall
construction. The mass of the CMU and CIP concrete materials will aid in providing better
acoustics within the space. Additional suspended wall panels will reflect sound and help
define the spaces and viewing angles. Acoustic curtains will be hung to help absorb
sound. The degree of curtain deployment will be adjustable so that users can vary this
depending upon the type of performance. Light and sound locks will be utilized at all
entry points to the auditorium to create separation from adjacent spaces.

Suspended below the roof structure and obscuring most of the view to the roof structure
by audience members will be a system of technical catwalks and suspended shaped
panels with hard reflective surfaces or soft absorptive surfaces to address acoustics
as recommended by an acoustician. Mechanical systems, lighting, fire alarm and
fire sprinkler systems will also all be worked into the space below the roof. Catwalk
construction will be steel framed and catwalks will be accessed via caliper spaces or back-
of-house locations. Anticipated height from the stage floor to top of the parapet at the
house is between 40’ and 45’.

At the upper level of seating at the back of the auditorium a control booth for audio
and video systems will be provided. The control booth will consist of a lockable room
for storing equipment as well as a console open to the house chamber. An elevator will
provide access to the upper level seats and control booth.

SCENARIO 3 | Architectural

Stage + Rehearsal Space

The stage is sized to accommodate a performance area of 36’ deep by 40’ wide and a
proscenium height of 19’-6”. Wing spaces of approximately 24’ on either side of the
proscenium opening provide space for a theatrical rigging system. Anticipated height
from the stage floor to top of the parapet at the stage volume is 55’. This height permits
34 scenes to be flown completely above the proscenium opening. A grid iron constructed
of steel members at approximately 40’ above the stage floor will support the theatrical
rigging system. Line sets will be a combination of manual and electric.

The rehearsal space is programmed to provide the same dimensions as the performance
area of the stage. When not used for performance rehearsals the school can utilize this
space as a large classroom.
Classrooms

Classrooms for the orchestra, choral and band programs will have flat floors with no built-
in risers to provide maximum flexibility. Support spaces such as faculty offices, practice
rooms and storage space supplement the classrooms. A teaching wall containing storage,
whiteboard, and A/V connections will be concentrated on one wall to allow the rest of the
space to be left open and flexible.

Lobby + Hospitality Room

A public lobby will provide entry to the auditorium in addition to serving as a small
gathering space for use by the school. The lobby size is calculated proportionally based
on the auditorium seat count. The hospitality room programmed is intended as support
space for the lobby and the auditorium, providing a lay-down area for basic preparation
and storage for events held at the facility.

Restrooms + Support Spaces

Fully accessible restrooms for both students and staff will be located in the lobby,
along with support custodial space. Dressing rooms and associated restrooms will be
accessible from the stage for use by performers. Electrical, IDF and minimal general
storage are also provided.

SCENARIO 1 | Structural

Repair/Upgrade of the Existing Auditorium

Building Codes

The existing building was built in conformance with the applicable standards of 1940. All
new construction will need to conform with the current California Building Code, CBC.
Some of the existing construction is undersized by current standards and no longer rec-
ognized as a viable way to resist seismic loads. Justification for the use or modification of 35
these systems will require reference to historic codes and acceptance of this analysis by
the Division of the State Architect, DSA.

1) Truss Repair & Strengthening:


The roof trusses will be repaired and strengthened by adding steel rods to their bot-
tom chords. Many trusses built in the 1930s & 940s throughout southern California
have been successfully repaired and strengthened, including a car dealership in Santa
Monica. There are construction companies which specialize in this type of work. The
top of wall displacement on both the north and south sides is expected to be corrected
when Truss #2 is repaired. See drawing S-1

2) Roof Analysis:
Before reoccupying the auditorium, DSA will require a complete analysis of the roof
and ceiling structure. The 2002 structural remediation included some repair work
which was not adequately documented. Some of this work, which was performed on
all four trusses, will need to be redone. There will be additional portions of the four
trusses which will need to be repaired. Additionally, steel tension rods will be added
to all trusses to strengthen the existing undersized bottom chords. No additional work
associated with the truss to wall connections, walls or parapets is anticipated.

3) Roof Membrane:
The outer roof membrane has been maintained and is in good condition. The ceiling is
secured directly to the bottom chord of the roof trusses. Between the roof trusses, the
ceiling is hung from the roof joists. Where this occurs, the roof joists are overloaded
by current California Building Code standards and will need to be strengthened. It is
anticipated that this will be accomplished by doubling up every third roof joist.

4) Ceiling:
An eight foot wide strip of the existing plaster ceiling wasremoved to facilitate instal-
lation of the shoring under Truss #2.See photo S-2. The auditorium ceiling lateral
bracingconstruction is not compliant with current building coderequirements. DSA will
require that lateral bracing be added. The entire plaster ceiling will be replaced with a
gypsum board ceiling. Replacing the ceiling is not expected to require additional struc-
tural work to the roof trusses or joists beyond that noted in #1, #2 & #3.
3 SCENARIOS

SCENARIO 1 | Structural

5) Ductwork:
Portions of the ceiling ductwork were removed to facilitate installation of the shoring.
More will need to be removed toprovide access for the repair and strengthening of
the trusses. Much of the existing ductwork has been damaged by people crawlingon
it over the years. See photo S-3. The insulation on the ductwork had deteriorated and
has been removed. Replacement of all ceiling ductwork is anticipated. No additional
structural strengthening is expected to be required to accommodate the replacement
36 ductwork.
6) HVAC:
It is expected that the existing heating and ventilation equipment will be upgraded.
Cooling will be added. New roof top equipment above the lobby and existing
mechanical equipment is expected. Supplemental roof framing to support this
equipment will be required. New duct chases between the lobby floor, the 2nd level
floor and the roof are planned. Incidental light weight framing will be required to
accommodate the new ductwork.

7) Sprinklers:
Current CBC requires sprinklers below the ceiling and possibly in the attic above
the ceiling. The roof structure repairs and upgrades noted above in #1, #2 & #3 are
expected to have sufficient strength to support the additional weight. The new water
supply requirements are discussed elsewhere.

8) Fire Protection:
Current CBC requires additional fire & smoke sensors & audio enunciators. The roof
structure repairs and upgrades noted above are expected to have sufficient strength to
support the additional weight.

9) Stage Floor:
There is moisture/termite damage to the under floor construction in the vicinity of the
stage. Damaged framing will need to be repaired or replaced.

10) AV Lighting & Catwalks:


Installation of new ceiling AV projection, lighting and sound equipment will require
minor light wood framing modifications. Supplemental catwalks for maintenance access
may be added. Catwalks are expected to be constructed from plywood and light wood
framing. The primary roof structure is expected to have sufficient strength to support
these modifications. New catwalks are expected to be accessed via a ladder from one of
the side storage spaces.

11) Acoustic Treatment:


Minor structural framing will probably be required to accommodate additional sound
baffling or other acoustic treatment along the sides of the auditorium. The primary
roof and wall structures are expected to have sufficient strength to support these
modifications.
3 SCENARIOS

SCENARIO 1 | Structural

12) Building Addition:


To provide access to the lobby, mid seating and front of stage areas and to provide
accessible restrooms and support spaces, a one level addition to the north side of the
building is anticipated. The addition would be located in the space between the existing
auditorium and Pearl Street. The light wood framed structure would be seismically
separated from the auditorium, with connecting passages as required. Total new and
existing openings in the auditorium wall less than 12 feet wide are expected to be
acceptable to DSA. Otherwise an review of the existing nonconforming lateral system
37
will be required. The spread concrete foundation of the addition would be constructed
integrally with the existing foundations.

13) Sound & Light Booth:


The existing floor should have adequate strength to accommodate a sound and light
control booth at the rear of the existing seating area. Minor framing may be required
to build a flat platform on the existing sloped floor. Removing any portion of the rear
auditorium cast concrete wall to accommodate access to the sound and light control
booth would require evaluation of the associated reduction in the lateral strength of the
existing non-conforming lateral system.

14) Existing Lobby:


The existing lobby restrooms do not meet current CBC accessibility requirements. They
are not large enough to accommodate the required fixture and access requirements.
Removing the lobby plumbing and non-bearing partition walls is not expected to
have significant implications to the existing structure. Removing or reconfiguring
the restrooms next to the workrooms adjacent to the stage is not expected to have
significant implications to the existing structure.

15) House Floor:


The slope of the existing auditorium floor does not comply with current accessibility
standards. It is unrealistic to completely reframe the floor. Additional light wood
framing will be required to accommodate the accessibility modifications.

16) 2nd Level Control Booth:


Openings in the 2nd level between the control room and the auditorium totaling less
than 5 feet wide are expected to be acceptable to DSA. Otherwise a review of the
existing nonconforming lateral system will be required.

17) Orchestra Room:


The orchestra room at the east end of the building is not expected to be significantly
impacted by the repair and upgrade of the auditorium. For planning purposes, it is
reasonable to assume that this space could be cleared for occupancy after the truss,
roof & ceiling structural repairs are completed.

SCENARIO 2 | Structural

Replacement Building to Accommodate the Existing Program:

All new construction will be designed and built in conformance with the requirements
of the current California Building Code. In this scenario, the building square footage
is consistent with the existing building. The stage area height will be increased to
accommodate additional rigging and catwalks. Most new middle and high school
42 auditoriums are constructed using concrete masonry (CMU) walls with supplemental
steel framing. The mass of the walls provides significant acoustic benefit. For planning
purposes, it is reasonable to assume that the replacement building will be built with a
metal roof deck covered with light weight concrete. The roof deck would be supported
by steel beams, joists and trusses. The walls would be CMU. Depending on the building
plan and configuration, steel moment frames might be required in the narrow direction.
Based on a review of the October 2008 geotechnical report for the recently remodeled
administration building, cast concrete spread footings would probably be used
throughout.

Scenario 2 Alternate; Reduced Cost Option:

1) Height Reduction:
The existing floor to ceiling height at the stage is 24’-0”. To accommodate rigging and
catwalks, current middle school auditoriums typically have a floor to ceiling height at
the stage of 46’-0”. The base cost estimate for Scenario 2 assumes construction to meet
current stage design standards. The alternate deduction is provided to rebuild the stage
area to the existing, now sub-standard, height.

2) Type of Construction Reduction:


The existing building is constructed using light wood framing. The roof and walls are
covered with 1x6 diagonal wood sheathing. Wood trusses and built-up wood columns are
used as primary structural supports where 2x members are not adequate. The outside of
the building is covered in stucco, the inside with plaster. As an alternate, the replacement
building could be built using light wood/steel framing. The roof and walls would be
covered with plywood. Steel trusses and wide flange sections would be used as primary
support structure where light wood/steel framing is inadequate. The outside would be
covered with stucco and the inside with drywall. This alternate construction deduction is
provided to build the replacement building out of light wood/steel framing rather than
the acoustically preferred CMU.

SCENARIO 3 | Structural

New Building to Accommodate a 750 Seat Auditorium:

All new construction will be designed and built in conformance with the requirements of
the current California Building Code. For planning purposes it is reasonable to assume
that the new building would be built with a metal roof deck covered with light weight
concrete. The roof deck would be supported by steel beams, joists and trusses. Two
levels of seating are anticipated. The upper level is expected to be concrete over metal
deck supported by steel beams, joists and trusses. The walls would be CMU with selected
43
high load areas being built with cast-in-place concrete. Depending on the building plan
and configuration, steel moment frames might be required in the narrow direction.
Based on a review of the October 2008 geotechnical report for the recently remodeled
administration building, cast concrete spread footings would probably be used
throughout.

Outside Design Conditions

The outdoor conditions for the building will follow standard industry guidance. The spaces
will utilize statistical weather data from the California Energy Commission’s 2013 Joint
Appendix 2 (JA2) for Santa Monica, CA. The summer design conditions will be based on
the 0.5% Design Conditions and the winter will be based on the 0.6% Design Conditions.

Summer: 78 °F DB / 65 °F MCWB
Winter: 46 °F DB

The design conditions (i.e., 0.5%) may be exceeded for a number of hours per year (due to
outside temperatures exceeding these design conditions). While designing to the design
conditions by definition indicates that design set points will be exceeded during peak
periods, typical design often requires a minimal amount of over sizing so that control is
always maintained. The following figure shows hours 6-24 for 365 days of weather data

Heating

The biggest determining factor in total building heating energy use is not the efficiency of
the source of the heat, but in how quickly it is lost to the outside. Highly insulated roofs,
walls, windows, all help to lower this heating loss. In particular, providing enough glazing
to allow for daylighting without affecting thermal integrity of the assembly is a challenge.
46 Good glass can insulate to the level of R-3 to R-5. When compared to an R-19 wall or an
R-30 roof, significant glazing in any given area of wall or roof severely hampers its thermal
performance. In addition, over-glazing can create local thermal comfort problems due to
drafts on cold days and radiant hot spots on hot days.

In addition to these conductive losses is the infiltration load, which can be as significant,
if not more so, than those other envelope elements. Typical buildings leak one half of
the volume of a given room each hour through the envelope (0.5 air changes per hour).
Providing a robust air barrier, as well as well-detailed windows, doors, joints, seams,
corners, and other openings into the building will eliminate leaks and keep building-wide
infiltration rates at below 0.15 air changes per hour.

Cooling

The architectural design affects comfort and energy use in the cooling season as well
as the heating season. In hot weather, unwanted heat enters the building through
conduction, similar to the heating season, but also through direct solar gains to unshaded
building mass, through unshaded windows, and indirect solar radiation through shaded
windows. Providing enough glazing for good daylighting performance, while limiting the
amount of glass at walls and ceilings such that cooling loads are low enough that our low-
energy cooling strategies are effective is essential to achieving a high performing building.

A factor to consider in how a building interacts with its outdoor climate is its mass.
Building mass has the ability to absorb heat and delay the natural trend to follow
the outdoor temperatures. If the peak outdoor temperature happens at 2PM, a light
construction building will also peak near 3PM, while a heavy mass building will peak
much later in the day, often at 5 or 6PM. Furthermore, the peak temperature that it does
experience inside will not be nearly as high. Consequently, a cooling system may be
downsized for higher building mass construction.

Potential upgrades to the modernization and new building project should be evaluated to
minimize heat gains and losses to limit the sizing of HVAC systems. In the modernization,
we are dealing with existing conditions which may hamper the ability to pursue some
of these efficiencies. A major benefit of this type of building is that the most densely
occupied space functions best with little to no windows, which will lower the loads in that
space. The existing building includes portions that are concrete construction which has
thermal mass. Other portions of the building are wood construction.

conditioning (HVAC). The existing design included only heating and ventilating (H&V).
Per discussions with the school’s representatives, it is desired to add an air conditioning
component in any upgrade, although not required by code. Heating and ventilating are
both required by code.

Electrical Systems Description


55
The existing 400A and 100A panels serving the Auditorium would need to be metered
to determine if they have adequate load to support a renovation to the building. If the
metering demonstrated adequate capacity on the existing panels, they could be re-
used to serve the building in Scenario 1, renovation of the existing building with small
additions. If the metering demonstrated inadequate capacity, the following service size
would be recommended.

Based on a load calculation by area of the building in square feet and the type of building
being similar to a theater, a recommended service size has been developed for the
various renovation scenarios being considered. For scenario 1, the new service sizes
would accommodate the added load as mentioned below.
• Scenario 1 Program – 208Y/120V, 800A feed
o New telecom/data infrastructure
o New HVAC load
• Scenario 2 Program – 208Y/120V, 1200A feed
• Scenario 3 Program – 208Y/120V, 1600A feed

The Auditorium Building will be served from the existing main switchboard in Room 76 of
Building L. The existing service switchboard appears to have space to add the required
circuit breaker for any of the three scenarios. This service and switchboard will be
modified as required to accommodate the new distribution feeder to the Auditorium.

If a new service is provided for the Auditorium building, the electrical distribution system
will include provisions for future self-generation (photovoltaics), including raceways and
breaker space in the distribution equipment as required by Title 24. The basis for the
sizing will be based on 15% of the available roof space.

Electrical Distribution

Electrical Distribution will be served from the auditorium main switchboard sized per

Lighting Controls

An addressable lighting control system that allows the controls to be distributed


throughout the building close to the light fixtures being controlled will be provided.

The Lighting control systems for the project will have the ability for granular control of
each light fixture or zone (depending on design), device management, load monitoring,
and Automatic Demand Response (ADR).
61

The addressable lighting control system will be controlled through software residing
on a dedicated head-end server, which allows integration with the campus energy
management system.

The lighting control head end will have capability of control and monitoring of any space
in a cluster by area or zone and set schedules/presets.

All control devices (switches, occupancy sensors, photo sensors, etc.) are low voltage
and do not require power wiring. They are connected via data wiring. Because these are
not directly tied to the fixture, it allows any lighting control device to be assigned to any
fixture (or controlled zone) via programming.

Each fixture or group of fixtures will be controlled by individually addressable control


module, sensor and controller and communicate its status (occupancy, daylight,
temperature) to a gateway. Provide a lighting control system that can respond to available
daylight by switching or dimming electric light to save energy and extend lamp life.
Addressable lighting controls systems allow for automatic daylight harvesting which
will reduce electric lighting consumption by continuously dimming fixtures and filling
the spaces with abundant, free daylight where possible. The daylight harvesting system
will utilize photocells which will sense daylight levels in the space and will dim down the
lights, as opposed to turning the fixture completely off. When the lights are dimmed, and
eventually turned off if the daylight levels are sufficiently high, the result will be energy
savings which translate to lower energy and operating costs. Further energy savings can
be achieved through high-end trimming.

We would recommend utilizing a system such as nLight or an equivalent to allow these


controls.

Controls in individual areas would meet the following:

The Auditorium building will be provided with daylight harvesting as required by code and
to take advantage of the proposed glazing. In addition, all light fixtures will be dimmable
to allow varying “scenes” ranging from general use and performance.

Offices will be provided with occupancy sensors and local dimming control switches to
allow the individual users to set the lighting levels to their preference.

Section 907 and Part 9 California Fire Code (CFC) Section 907 require EVAC systems in
64 Group E occupancies and some specific Group A occupancies. The Division of the State
Architect (DSA) submitted an Interpretation of Regulations (IR) F-1 to clarify when the
installation of Fire Emergency Voice/Alarm Communication (EVAC) systems in public
schools are required. Based on this IR, the system will need to be upgraded to (EVAC) in
any of the three scenarios.

The fire alarm system for the Auditorium will need to be upgraded to a fully automatic,
addressable, voice evacuation fire alarm system. This will be provided for the facility
and will be designed conforming to current California Building Code and NFPA 72. New
initiating devices comprising of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations
and duct detectors will be installed per current codes. New indicating devices will
consist of speakers and strobes and will be distributed and installed throughout the
proposed buildings per current CBC and CFC codes. The new fire alarm system will be
manufactured by Simplex per the campus standard.

There is no voice evacuation for fire alarm currently on campus. In order to


accommodate the new voice evacuation system that will be required for the Auditorium,
there are two options:

1. A separate voice evacuation system panel would be added to serve the


Auditorium and would communicate back to the existing campus fire alarm control
panel in Building Q. This option is more cost effective, but will reduce the amount of
control that one has at the Main fire alarm control panel.

2. The entire campus fire alarm system would be upgraded to meet the new code
and be a voice evacuation system. This would involve the replacement of devices,
wiring and conduits throughout the entire campus. This is the more costly option,
but would provide the campus with an integrated fire alarm system that would be
controlled by a single fire alarm control panel

Water Systems

Domestic Cold Water (DCW)

Current California Building Codes mandate a much higher plumbing fixture count for
both Men’s and Women’s restrooms based on the existing auditorium seating capacity.
The existing Building K has (1) 2” connection for domestic water. It enters from the
northeast end of the building. Size of the existing DCW system appears to be inadequate
and would need to be verified to determine if it has adequate capacity to serve the new
higher plumbing fixture counts needed based on current codes. The new domestic cold
water connection will be coordinated with the design team. In addition, this piping has
reached its useful life and would need replacement. This piping would be demolished
within the building back to the POC from civil (5’ from the building). In general, since this
pipe is undersized, this would need to be demolished back to an adequately sized pipe.
Civil/site drawings are not available at this time so the extend of piping on the site is not
known.

Water velocity will not exceed 8 ft/sec for domestic cold.

Groups of fixtures on will be provided with isolation valves for ease of maintenance. Each
plumbing fixture will also be provided with individual isolation valves (fixture stops) for
maintenance purposes.

Domestic Hot Water (DHW)

There is no domestic hot water being supplied to the existing building fixtures. Domestic
hot water will be provided to the new restroom lavatories, break room sinks (if any), and
janitor’s closets. Water will be supplied to the lavatories at a blended temperature of
105˚F for hand washing. A tempering valve compliant with the California Plumbing Code
will be provided to ensure hot water is no higher than 105˚F at fixtures. The user will not
be able to change the temperature of the water at the lavatories.

Hot water for all areas will be provided at 105˚F except for the janitor’s closets, which will
be provided at 120˚F for sanitation and the break room sinks will be provided with 110˚F

Since natural gas is available, domestic water heating will be achieved by providing new
high-efficiency gas-fired water heaters. The domestic water heaters will be set to produce
120˚F hot water. Domestic hot water system will have a recirculating pump to insure
immediate delivery of hot water to all fixtures.

Groups of fixtures will be provided with isolation valves for ease of maintenance. Each
plumbing fixture water supply will also be provided with individual isolation valves. Water 67
velocity will not exceed 5 ft/sec for domestic hot water.

The new domestic hot water system will be sized based on Chapter 6, of the California
Plumbing Code.

Natural Gas piping (G)

The existing gas main serving the auditorium is a 3” gas line. We would recommend
replacement of existing piping as it original to the building and has reached its useful
life. This is to ensure that the decades old gas piping does not pose maintenance issues
after the substantial new auditorium upgrade. Since new HVAC gas-fired space heating
equipment and new gas-fired plumbing water heater(s) are being planned, the gas
pipe size/capacity will be evaluated in light of these new gas loads to be added. The gas
company will be contacted to ensure the existing gas meter is adequate to handle the
increased gas load.

Other Systems

Sanitary Waste and Vent System (SAN AND V)

Since new and higher quantities of Plumbing fixtures would be provided in accordance
with current California building codes, we recommend existing hub-and-spigot cast iron
sanitary waste and vent piping to be replaced with new no-hub cast iron piping. This
is to ensure that the decades old piping does not pose maintenance issues after the
substantial new auditorium upgrade. The new sanitary waste (SAN), and vent (V) system
will be provided throughout the building in accordance with the California Plumbing
Code. All sanitary sewer will terminate 5 feet outside the building. The Civil Engineer will
provide the continuation from 5 feet and beyond. The new sanitary sewer, waste and vent
system will serve the restrooms, janitor closets, break rooms/kitchenettes (if applicable)
and mechanical equipment areas. A gravity drainage system will be provided for fixtures
above grade. Floor drains with trap primers will be provided for each restroom containing
two or more water closets and/or urinals. Vent termination through roof will be
coordinated. Indirect waste system will be provided to accommodate indirect waste from
HVAC equipment.

The building sanitary drainage and vent system will be sized based on Chapter 7 of the
California Plumbing Code.

Roof and Storm Drainage System (SD)

We recommend existing roof and overflow drains and existing hub-and-spigot cast iron
roof drainage piping to be replaced as they are original to the building and have reached
their useful life. New storm drain and overflow drain piping will be no-hub cast iron
piping. This is to ensure that the decades old piping does not pose maintenance issues
68 after the substantial new auditorium upgrade.

Roof drainage will be accomplished by a traditional roof and overflow drain system.
Overflow roof drains (OD) will be routed down through the building. The overflow drains
will then be piped to the building exterior wall where they will discharge at 6” above grade
onto a splash block. The overflow discharge locations will not affect any staff or student
walkways. The storm drain leaders will be routed and connected to the underground
storm drainage. The storm drainage will terminate 5 feet outside building and Civil
Engineer will provide from 5 feet and beyond. The building storm drainage system will
be sized based on Chapter 11 of the California Plumbing Code. Sized will be based on 4”/
hour rainfall.

Drains and Wastes

The existing building does not include any condensate waste as there are no cooling
components within the building. New condensate waste (CD) from new cooling coils
and other mechanical equipment will be discharged as an indirect waste to a location
acceptable to the Authority Having Jurisdiction and connected to sanitary sewer system.
All indoor and or concealed condensate piping will be insulated.

Noise and Vibration Control

Products, including toilets, urinals, and flush valves, will be selected to minimize the
generation of noise and vibration into the domestic water system. A minimum 1/4-inch
resilient material will be provided between domestic hot and cold water piping, waste and
vent lines and the building structure. Specific noise and vibration control measures for
Domestic Water, Waste and Vent Piping include:

• Horizontal Suspended: Tolco Clevis Hanger with felt. Provide cable seismic restraints if
required by code.
• Horizontal Supported: Elmdor Stoneman Trisolator
• Riser Supports: Hubbard Holdrite Silencer #278 between riser clamp and building
structure
• Partition Penetrations: Coordinate with other trades to avoid contact where plumbing
penetrations occur

Fire Protection System

It is anticipated that under the current California Building/Fire Code, the entire auditorium
will need coverage. A preliminary consultation with the local City & State Fire Marshal
will be had to ensure current ordinances are adhered to comply with requirements of
authorities having jurisdiction. The automatic fire sprinkler system will be fed via the
on-site fire main. The existing fire water for the hose cabinets enters the building at the
south end of the building, near the DCW connection. The fire sprinklers added to the
73
stage area are served from a branch near the north side of the building. The existing
lines are undersized to serve the building and would need to be upsized. A new double
detector check valve assembly will be installed outside the building to protect the supply
water main. Downstream of the building double detector check valve assembly, a fire
department connection (for fire-fighter use) will be provided to allow the local fire
department to supplement/pressurize the building fire sprinkler system.

Governing Codes

• 2016 California Fire Code (PART 9)


• 2013 NFPA 13 – Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems
• NFPA 24 - Standard for the Installation of Private Fire Service Mains and their
Appurtenances, 2010 Edition

Design Criteria

The hydraulically designed automatic fire sprinkler system will be provided with a
minimum 10 percent safety margin. Piping will be concealed above ceilings and within
walls except for non-public equipment rooms without ceilings.
Sprinkler heads will be spaced for symmetry with ceiling features. This will require
additional heads that will be provided in base bid. Basis of head location will be:

• Equal distance between lights.


• Equal distance between lights and wall.
• Equal distance between lights and air inlets and outlets.
• Equal distance between wall, lights, and air inlets and outlets.
