The OHIO SCHOOL FACILITIES COMMISSION Assessor & RPC Summit; July 1, 2008


AREA calculationThe following spaces need to be measured

and the area accurately calculated

Gross Building Area (for each addition)

Tape or electronic linear dimensions of all exterior building surfaces. Create AutoCadd footprint, check for closure and use area command for area. Exclude courtyards and remember to adjust for two story spaces.

Why does this seem to be so difficult?


AREA calculation

Corridors: Stairs, ramps and elevators shall be included in the Corridor area.

Stairs: Stair area shall be calculated as 100% on the ground floor and 5o% on elevated floors. Area shall be calculated based on the total area inside the stair enclosure walls.

Elevators: Elevators shall be calculated as 100% on the ground floor and o% on elevated floors.

Do not count overhangs as area.

When computing areas for existing or new buildings. The area shall be

calculated as follows:

(This is now in your Agreement under General Scope Guidelines)


OVERSIZE Space:

Existing area of certain common spaces of a

school building which are considered beyond DM

guidelines, and therefore is subtracted from the

gross area.

DEFINITIONS

OVERSIZE SPACE


There are 3 types of OVERSIZE space:

DEFINITIONS

RegularGymnasium

Corridors

Ag. Ed.

Media Center

Vocational

Dining

Kitchen

Non-DMAuditoriums

Natatoriums

Indoor Tracks

Adult Education

Board Offices

County or other

Agencies

UnusableTypically basement

space which no

longer is suitable

for classrooms or

other renovation.

OVERSIZE SPACE


Because some other scope will be required to be done in order to

protect the integrity of the space, a nearly complete assessment

will be necessary. All A-W items are to be included except:

General Finishes Security Systems Site Conditions

Loose Furnishings Technology

This scope will be a LFI, subject to review & negotiation with the District

and the Planner/RPC. (Determined during Master Plan development.)

Only “Life-Safety” related scope will be co-funded.

Assessing “Non-DM” oversize spaces.

OVERSIZE SPACE

ASSESS AS A SEPARATE ADDITION


Oversize space which is UNUSABLE is treated the same:

Typically basement space which is no longer suitable for

classrooms or other required areas of the program.

Only “Life-Safety” related scope will be co-funded.

Assessing “Unusable” oversize spaces.

OVERSIZE SPACE

ASSESS AS A SEPARATE ADDITION


UNUSABLE SPACE criteria:

• Not suitable space to fit a typical POR

• Can include very difficult areas to access such as a partial fourth floor or basement.

• Typical examples include old coal bins, very large basement mechanical rooms or fan rooms (catacombs).

• When in doubt, contact your RPC/Planner.

OVERSIZE SPACE


“Life Safety” related items in specific terms are…

Fire Protection

Fire Alarm System

Emergency Egress Lighting

Total Master Planning co-funded amount for this

scope is $7.15 / s.f. x Regional Cost Factor

OVERSIZE SPACE


•Are they Unusable Space?

•When does the area not get counted?

•If it does, what gets included?

•What criteria makes it count as area?

OK…But what about those pesky

utility tunnels?


EXCESS (or Underutilized) Space:

Existing area of a school building which,

after accounting for Oversize Space, is in excess

of the required area for the proposed student

population. Excess area is indicated as a

“negative” addition on the Master Plan.

DEFINITIONS

Partial Co-Funding Conditions(Oversize & Excess Area & resulting LFIs)


Existing buildings scheduled for renovation must house the maximum number of students based on the OSDM

sf/student formulas and oversize space considerations.

The maximum allowable excess area beyond that which is required to house shall be 1,000 sf of the gross area of the building. Area beyond the proposed enrollment is a

LFI.

The web tool automatically calculates this.

Excess space LFIs



The LFI is based on the average sf cost for

renovation of the entire building multiplied by the

excess area, minus “Life Safety” related scope at

$7.15 / sf.(Subject to Regional Cost Factor)

Excess space LFIs



1. Non-DM Oversize spaces.

2. Unusable Oversize spaces.Note: these spaces may require some “A-W” renovation (to

satisfy building integrity) as a LFI.

FOR RENOVATIONS: All “Excess Area” is required to be DM compliant (requires complete “A-W” renovation) except:



1. Detached buildings that do not contain required

program space.

2. Non-DM spaces that do not contain required

program space.Note: “required program space” is space that satisfies the Master Plan

program space.

FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION: All LFI spaces are required to be DM compliant except:

ASSESSMENTCOST

GUIDELINES

LESSONS LEARNED


A. HEATING SYSTEM

Don’t forget “Convert to Ducted System” if current system does not primarily utilize ductwork.


B. ROOFING

Don’t forget about Gutters and Downspouts.


D. ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

If a complete replacement is not selected, add a new generator.


E. PLUMBING & FIXTURES

In old buildings (say 50 yrs or more) consider replacing Sanitary Waste system.


F. WINDOWS

Area take-offs are often incorrect.


G. STRUCTURE

Pipe tunnels?


H. STRUCTURE: WALLS

Masonry Cleaning & Sealing should almost be a given. Also, don’t underestimate area for Tuckpointing.


I. STRUCTURE: FLOORS, ROOFS

Don’t confuse a wood finish floor with a wood structural floor system. Finish wood can stay.


J. GENERAL FINISHES

“Complete Finish Replacement” includes only:Paint; Ceiling; Floors; MB/TBs and Lockers

It does not include Interior Doors


J. GENERAL FINISHES (cont.)

Be sure to assess Interior Doors. If most are original, replace. Make sure new ADA hardware in “O” doesn’t

duplicate with new doors or hardware.

Don’t forget Toilet Accessories Replacement.If building does not have Casework per the OSDM, or falls significantly short, be sure to include “Complete

Replacement of Casework”.(assuming you don’t already have it in Finishes)

Kitchen Equipment gets replaced if older than 1985. That’s probably most schools!


K. INTERIOR LIGHTING

Very seldom ever not replaced.


L. SECURITY SYSTEM

Boring…

M. EMERGENCY LIGHTING

N. FIRE ALARM


O. HANICAPP ACCESS (ADA)

Coordinate better with Plumbing & Finishes so you don’t duplicate fixtures, partitions, hardware, etc.


P. SITE CONDITION

Use Site Contingency Allowance unless you get special permission not to by your Planner.


Q. SEWAGE SYSTEM

Boring…


R. WATER SUPPLY

Watch out for Arsenic!


S. EXTERIOR DOORS

Straight forward…


T. HAZ MAT


U. LIFE SAFETY

If you can obtain water pressure/flow form the Owner/AE team, do it. This way we can plan for

adding a pump and/or tank if necessary.

A new generator is included in a “Complete Electrical Replacement”. If you’re not doing this,

choose the new Generator.


V. LOOSE FURNISHINGS


W. TECHNOLOGY

Notice our change on this. Also note that there is no partial, only a full replacement.
