The third floor has steel columns and steel beams with metal decking and concrete topping. In addition, there are two single story wings that have steel columns and large glu-lam beams. The building was constructed for Seismic Zone2B. This area has since been elevated to Seismic Zone 3. The VA has determined that this building must be upgraded to bring it up to current code. The requirement involves a thorough evaluation of the structure to develop a comprehensive design that will bring the building up to current code and prepare it for immediate occupancy. The magnitude of the subsequent construction contract is expected to be between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000. This procurement is issued using the procedures of FAR Part 36.601 and will result in award of a fixed price service contract.
