Demolition, site work, new construction, renovation and addition to a mixed-use development in Franklin, Indiana. Completed plans call for the addition of a fire / police facility; for the demolition of a fire / police facility; for the construction of a fire / police facility; for the renovation of a fire / police facility; and for site work for a fire / police facility.

This project includes two separate fire station constructions. Bargersville Fire Station 201: This project consists of phased additions and renovations to the existing 13,826-square-foot Fire Station 201. New additions will total approximately 7,122 square feet and include one additional apparatus bay, new administration space, and expanded living space. The scope includes renovating portions of the existing space with interior finish upgrades. Site work involves a new connection to the sanitary sewer, demolition of the existing septic system, relocation of the storm water detention pond, and a new drive for vehicle circulation and additional parking. Bargersville Fire Station 203: This project consists of a new, approximately 16,800-square-foot, four-bay fire station on a new four-acre greenfield site. The station is designed to support twelve professional firefighters. The site is designed with a well for drinking water and a septic system, along with storm water detention. The bays are pull-through with heavy-duty concrete paving aprons. 1. Bargersville Fire Station 201 a. This project consists of phased additions and renovations to the existing Fire Station 201 (a 3-bay, back-in station w/ fire headquarters). The existing station is approximately 13,826 SF with new additions totaling approximately 7,122 SF (one additional apparatus bay, new administration space and expanded living space). The drawings indicate which portions of the existing space get renovated and/or have interior finish upgrades, including which portions of this scope are alternates. The site does not currently have access to sanitary sewer; however, a new connection will be made to sanitary sewer to the north, allowing us to demolish the existing septic system. Storm water detention is designed specifically for this site, which will consist of relocating the current pond to allow for expansion to the existing building. A new drive will be installed to allow for vehicles to circulate around the entirety of the building and will provide access to additional parking. Due to this being an operational station, coordination of phasing, specifically for utility switch overs and transitions, is critical. b. The building is designed of Type V-B construction and is 'B' Occupancy per code. The building will be fully sprinklered as part of this project, allowing us to abandon an existing 2-hour fire wall utilized previously as a means of increasing the building SF without a sprinkler system. The building's structural system is comprised largely of wood framed walls and roof trusses, with load bearing masonry walls at the apparatus bay addition. The structural system also utilizes concrete spread footings at perimeter walls and columns. The existing attic is being expanded at the new additions and will be insulated at the roof plane to allow for a conditioned attic to support new ductwork and a new sprinkler system. c. The exterior of the building is primarily brick masonry, with limestone accents used sparingly at the main entry and at some window openings. The majority of the new roof will be standing seam metal to match existing while any new low-sloped roofs will utilize a fully-adhered TPO membrane. The interior finishes are intended to be durable and long-lasting. The new apparatus bay and adjoining new support spaces utilize sealed concrete flooring as do some of the common living spaces. Living corridors and individual living spaces are a mix of carpet and porcelain tile, and the fitness room has special sports flooring. The kitchen utilizes stainless steel countertops and steel laboratory grade casework. On the administrative side of the building (new addition), the flooring is a mix of carpet tile, porcelain tile and sealed concrete depending on use. d. The building's mechanical system gets reused/repurposed, as well as added to, with a new roof top unit (8,000 CFM) with VAV boxes to control heating (hot water) and cooling (DX) within 43 separate zones between new and existing systems. The kitchen will have an exhaust hood and accompanying make up air unit. Due to the nature of carcinogen control in fire stations, the building has specific pressurization needs which will only be successful if the building envelope is tight and properly constructed. Gas fired radiant tubes will be used in the new apparatus bay for heating with fans for general air circulation. e. The building's electrical system consists of upgrading the existing 800A, 208V service to 1200A and adding a new natural gas fired generator that will support the whole building. New lighting is generally LED throughout. The project includes all data and technology in new and/or renovated spaces required for use of the building, as well as expansions to auxiliary systems for fire alarm, alerting, etc. f. The building's plumbing system will connect to an existing domestic water service and new sanitary connection. Hot water, generated for use by building occupants, will be generated by gas-fired, tankless hot water heaters. Domestic potable water will be supplied throughout the building to sinks, showers, toilets, etc. There will also be domestic potable water to hose bibs. A grease intercepted will be installed on the sanitary lines coming from the commercial-style kitchen and a Low-sloped roofs will be internally drained down through the building to below-slab storm piping. Compressed air will be supplied via a new compressor to serve the apparatus bays and fire equipment as indicated. Natural gas is being run to the building to supply the generator, heating hot water boiler and previously mentioned tankless hot water heaters. 2. Bargersville Fire Station 203 a. This project consists of a new, approximately 16,800 SF 4-bay fire station on a new greenfield site to serve the residents of Bargersville. The station is designed to support a complement of 12 professional fire fighters and apparatus. The station sits on an approximately 4-acre site at the southwest corner of SR135 and Division. The site does not currently have access to municipal water or sanitary sewer; therefore, the site is designed with a well for drinking water and a septic system. Storm water detention is designed specifically for this site as well. The bays on this station are pull-through with an inbound drive coming south off Division and an outgoing drive discharging to the west onto SR135 (the aprons on both the incoming and outgoing sides of the bay are heavy-duty concrete paving). A dumpster enclosure will be located in the SE corner of the site furthest from public view. b. The building is designed of Type II-B construction and is a 'B' Occupancy per code. The building is not sprinklered due to the lack of municipal water on site. The buildings structural system is comprised largely of steel, designed to meet the unique seismic requirements of this site, and utilizes concrete spread footings at perimeter walls and columns. The apparatus bays and support spaces utilize CMU masonry for durability but are not load-bearing. The roof system is largely comprised of open-web steel joists, even in areas supporting roof-top equipment, where additional column lines have been added to better distribute this load. c. The exterior of the building is primarily brick masonry, with metal accent panels and trim used sparingly throughout, but primarily at canopies or signage elements. The upper elevations of the apparatus bay utilize a translucent panel system to allow light to flood the apparatus bays and the roof to "float" above. The roof of the apparatus bay is standing seam metal while the remainder of the roofs utilize a fully-adhered TPO membrane. The interior finishes are intended to be durable and longlasting. The apparatus bays and adjoining support spaces utilize epoxy flooring, the common living areas are largely sealed concrete, individual living spaces are a mix of carpet and porcelain tile, and the fitness room has a special sports flooring. The kitchen utilizes stainless steel countertops and steel laboratory grade casework. d. The building's mechanical system utilizes a traditional roof top unit (7,000 CFM) with VAV boxes to control heating (hot water) and cooling (DX) within 23 separate zones. This system is supplemented by split systems for specialty spaces as needed. The kitchen will have an exhaust hood and accompanying make up air unit. Due to the nature of carcinogen control in fire stations, the building has specific pressurization needs which will only be successful if the building envelope is tight and properly constructed. Gas fired radiant tubes are used throughout the apparatus bays for heating with fans for general air circulation. The apparatus bays are also supplied with exhaust fans tied to sensors to purge the space of dirty air when and as needed. e. The building's electrical system includes an 800A, 208V service that is supported by a whole building, natural gas fired generator. Lighting is generally LED throughout. The project includes all data and technology required for use of the building, as well as auxiliary systems for fire alarm, alerting, etc. f. The building's plumbing system ties to the new well and septic field on site. Hot water, generated for use by building occupants, will be generated by gas-fired, tankless hot water heaters. Domestic potable water (via dual water softeners) will be supplied throughout the building to sinks, showers, toilets, etc. There will also be domestic potable water to the apparatus bay hose reels, exterior hose bibs, and roofmounted hose bib. A grease intercepted will be installed on the sanitary lines coming from the commercial-style kitchen and an oil/sand separator will be installed on the storm lines coming from the apparatus bay trench drains. Low-sloped roofs will be internally drained down through the building to below-slab storm piping. Compressed air will be supplied via a new compressor to serve the apparatus bays and fire equipment as indicated. Natural gas is being run to the building to supply the generator, heating hot water boiler and previously mentioned tankless hot water heaters. Question Deadline 06/09/2026 pn-2025-142.203
