This is a complex steel structure with mechanical and electrical equipment and a connected 110 foot high steel framed ?air exchange? building. The wind tunnel was originally built in 1939 and extensively modified in 1953/54. The air exchange building and adjacent transfer duct was built in 1953/54. Bids are to be based on contract documents, the available historical drawings, and site investigations and measurements. The steel structure is coated with a lead based painting system. The structure is located at the Ames Research Center, Mountain View, California. This is Phase 2 of a three phase effort and consists of the following elements. Base Bid: The demolition of the tunnel structure from the ring 278 to ring 161 at the west face of the test chamber (TC), including demolition of the transfer duct to the air exchange building.

Also included is the disconnection and removal of electrical services as shown and described on the issued documents. A design build closure wall at the test section, ring 161, is to be installed as new work. A D/B closure wall at the air exchange building is to be installed if Option #1 is not awarded. Option 1: Demolition of the air exchange building. This building is a steel framed structure with coated metal siding. Demolition of the ?inlet section? is to be to the concrete floor slab.

The work shall include construction of a new roof support structure at elevation 20, roofing to enclose the remaining structure, approximately 2400 sq. ft., and associated utilities. Electrical and architectural work is required as shown and described on the issued documents. All work in this solicitation entails strict compliance with safety and environmental considerations. A preliminary work plan defining methods and procedures will be required as part of the contract proposal.
