DESIGN INTENT DOCUMENT (DID)

HVAC Design Intent

[  ] The HVAC system selection and design intent is based on the processed outlined in ASHRAE Handbook 2020, Chapter 1, HVAC System Analysis and Selection

[  ] Program and Project Goals: Functional Goals: (refer to chapter 1, 2020 Handbook), Budget Goal: First Cost, and Timeline Goal(s): Four-Month Construction Period

[  ] Finalized System Selection Shall Be Replacement Cooling Tower and Standby Cooling Tower to Serve the Financial Data Center

[  ] Specialized Systems Shall Include the Existing Plate and Frame Waterside Heat Exchanger located in Central Chiller Plant

[  ] Special System(s): Sound Attenuators and Vibration Isolators

[  ] Air Filters: MERV-14 Filters in the New CRAC Units

[  ] Terminal Units: Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) Fan Coil

 

DESIGN CRITERIA DOCUMENT

[  ] The HVAC Design Criteria Shall Be in Sync with the Project Delivery Method and Owner’s Project Requirements.

[  ] A Construction Phased Cooling Tower and Standby Tower Replacement Schedule Is Based on the Facility’s Deferred Maintenance Replacement Plan

[  ] Raised Floor 2-By-2-Foot Floor Tiles Shall Be Coordinated in Anticipation of the Data Center Equipment’s Arrival. Underfloor Supply Air Shall Also Be Provided Directly Below Specific Pieces of Computer Equipment.

[  ] Rebalancing of the Condenser Water System for Condenser Water Flow, Standby Flow, and for Waterside Economizer Flow Sequences

[  ] The Design Team Shall Provide Contract Drawings and Specification Coordinated with Equipment Weight; Electric Data, Including Emergency Power Requirements, and Plumbing Criteria to Solicit General Contractor Bids

[  ] Field Fabrication Drawings Shall Become the Record Drawings at Closeout

[  ] CRAC Units Shall Be Furnished with O&M Manuals. The Preventive Maintenance Work Orders Shall Be Uploaded to the Outsource O&M Contractor’s Computerized Maintenance Management Software (CMMS) system

[  ] The D-B-B Contractor Shall Provide System Training to the Building’s O&M Staff Regarding the Air Conditioning, Humidification, and Electrical Systems
