<br />DRAFT MASTER PLAN FOR THE DPTS <br /> <br />FIRE STATION CONCEPTUAL DESIGN PROCESS <br /> <br />BUILDING EVALUATION <br /> <br />The general condition of the existing building was evaluated through visual obser- <br />vation methods appropriate to a master plan effort. This evaluation did not include <br />the services of structural, mechanical, or electrical engineers, or hazardous materials <br />consultants. All these disciplines, and perhaps others, must be part of the next phase, <br />the architectural design phase, which follows this Master Plan, and precedes construc- <br />tion. <br /> <br />MAINTENANCE EVALUATION <br /> <br />The efforts of City staff and fire fighters have kept the building well maintained <br />and in good condition. New foam roofing was installed over the apparatus bay in <br />1998. The dormitory roof received a cap sheet roofing in 1997. The office and day <br />room area was re-roofed in 1992. <br /> <br />CODE EVALUATION <br /> <br />Any significant modifications of the existing building will require the facilities to <br />be brought up to current building codes. Compared to today's requirements for <br />buildings used by the general public, the existing building has many code deficiencies. <br />The most obvious is the building's lack of accessibility; it does not comply with cur- <br />rent ADA guidelines. (For example, the second floor offices are not served by an ele- <br />vator.) Building systems were not analyzed, but, as with other buildings of similar age, <br />will also be below current standards for ventilation and energy efficiency requirements. <br /> <br />STRUCTURAL EVALUATION <br /> <br />The exterior walls are made of brick cavity wall construction wirh reinforced con- <br />crete fill. The north and south section use interior bearing walls, supporting roof joists <br />or heavy timber beams. In these areas, changing the interior load-bearing walls will <br />require installing new beams to support the roof loads. <br /> <br />The apparatus bay has glu-laminated beams which span the 48 foot width of the <br />bay. The original fire station was constructed of un-reinforced brick. It was seismically <br />reinforced with steel frames several years ago. We have no reason to believe that the <br />fire station is not in good structural condition. It is reasonable to assume that with <br />careful planning, the building's structure can be modified to accommodate new uses <br />in this building. <br /> <br />ApPENDIX I - I <br /> <br />II,D II I <br />
