3 SECTION I DESIGN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW A. GENERAL B. DATA 1. The purpose of this report is to present the initial design development recommendations by Lerch Bates Inc. (LB) Façade Access Consulting Group for façade access of Houston Methodist North Campus Expansion project to be located in Houston, Texas. Our objective for the systems outlined in this report is to provide total access to the exterior façades of the building. 2. The recommendations within this report will provide a high level of building maintenance for a reasonable cost while simultaneously limiting the impact of the façade access equipment on the buildings aesthetics and tenant use. 3. All equipment will be in strict accordance with OSHA and ASME A120.1 regulations. 1. Location: Houston, Texas 2. Project Type: Health Care 3. Building Information: Number of roof levels = 3 Approximate max drop height = 320 Approximate major dimensions = 230 x 480 C. FAÇADE ACCESS CHALLENGES 1. Platform roofrigging required 2. Occupyable roof space 3. Community rooftop pool 4. Multiple setbacks and roof levels D. CRITERA 1. We suggest the façade access equipment system should be capable of performance meeting the following criteria: E. DISCUSSION Exterior Façade Maintenance Cycle Time (FMCT): 4x per year Façade Maintenance Work Platform Live Load Capacity: 750 lb (minimum) 1. The information used for this report was provided by the WHR Design Team in December For the purpose of this report we assume the façade maintenance will be performed four (4) times per year. 3. This report presents the following schemes for exterior access: a. Portable Davit System: Window cleaning and unscheduled maintenance on the majority of the building will be achieved with a standard portable davit system. The Page 1
4 davits will suspend a selfpowered work platform that will be roofrigged and descend to ground level. Platform stabilization will be required due to platform descents being greater than 130. Stabilization will be achieved using intermittent stabilization anchors (ISA). b. Monorail System: Window cleaning and unscheduled maintenance on the North popout (by the flag pole) will be achieved using a monorail system. The monorail system will consist of two manually powered trolleys that suspend a selfpowered platform and two turntables that allow the platform to traverse through 90 degree corners in the monorail track. Platform stabilization will be required due to platform descents being greater than 130. Stabilization will be achieved using intermittent stabilization anchors (ISA). c. Fall Protection: Parapets lower than 42 require fall protection within 6 feet of the roof edge. This will be achieved using a handsfree horizontal lifeline that workers can attach their harnesses. 4. The façade access system's intended use is building maintenance which includes window cleaning, caulking, and general light maintenance or repairs to building surfaces. Page 2
5 SECTION II EQUIPMENT DESIGN A. EXTERIOR ACCESS The exterior of the condominium building will be accessed by a portable davit system and monorail system for window cleaning and unscheduled maintenance. Both systems will suspend a selfpowered work platform and will utilize intermittent stabilization anchors (ISA) for platform stabilization. Refer to Appendices for details. 1. Davit arms cannot be transported between roof levels or buildings. Therefore, each roof level shall be equipped with two (2) portable davit arms and two (2) portable davit sockets. 2. The davit pedestal locations will be coordinated with structure, but shall not be spaced greater than 30 apart. 3. A modular selfpowered work platform will have a maximum length of 30'0" with removable modular sections allowing a minimum length of 10'0". The owner has the option of either purchasing or renting the work platform. A single platform can be shared between each roof level. 4. Platform stabilization is required for drops greater than 130 and will be achieved using intermittent stabilization anchors spaced vertically 50 (or every 3 floors whichever is less) and horizontally the same distance as the davit pedestal spacing. 5. The handsfree horizontal lifeline (HLL) will consist of stanchions spaced no greater than 30 0 apart connected by a stainless steel wire rope cable. The HLL will be designed for 2 workers to be continuously attached as they work near the edge of the roof. 6. This system does not have the load capacity to be used for façade panel replacement. Additional equipment including a counterweighted or tiedback Aframe would be required. This piece of equipment would be provided by the contractor, brought to roof level by the elevator, and assembled at the roof edge. 7. Safety and Operation: a. All portable equipment shall be tethered to prevent falling over the side of the building. b. All portable equipment shall have the ability to be disassembled into pieces that weigh no more than 50 lbs for transportation. c. All workers must use fall protection when approaching an unprotected roof edge. 8. Estimated Costs: 9. Pros: a. Davit system, monorail system, fall protection approximately $250,000 b. Work Platform approximately $100,000 a. Complies with state and national codes and standards b. Provides complete access to the exterior building façade for window cleaning and unscheduled maintenance Page 3
6 10. Cons: c. Efficient FMCT d. Long equipment life and minimal maintenance required e. Flexibility; additional equipment can be added easily to meet work load requirements f. Façade access equipment suspended from the rooftop keeps public walkways relatively open during use of equipment a. Location of equipment requires considerable coordination b. Storage areas for davit arms and sockets must be provided c. Does not include glass replacement activities B. RECOMMENDATIONS In making our recommendation we took into account three key factors: Compliance to current codes and standards, efficiency and ease of use, and health and safety of the worker. In order to meet these requirements, we recommend a standard portable davit system monorail system. We recommend the selfpowered work platform be purchased and stored in a designated, covered storage area. For a moderate firstcost investment, the Owner can obtain a façade access system that is a permanent part of the building s physical plant that will cover the entire building. Over the life of the building, this equipment will provide access to the exterior building envelope for a range of building maintenance activities. Additional design work is required to insure that the systems recommended in our report are fully integrated into the building design and operate per their original design criteria. Page 4
