lameda Point Building 17 Building Stabilization Recommendation and Scope Report
SUMMARY:
Page & Turnbull has been engaged by the City of Alameda Base Reuse and Economic Development Department to provide historic preservation consultation related to proposed stabilization scope for Building 17 located at 700 West Essex Drive, Alameda, CA.
The Bachelors Officers Quarters building, Building 17 constructed in 1941, is identified in the Draft Nomination form for the National Register listed NAS Alameda Historic District as a Contributing Structure to the Alameda NAS National Register Historic District. Proposed stabilization measures identified or recommended by Page & Turnbull as part of this report are intended to minimize effects to the historic structure and are intended to be reversible and therefore in compliance with the Secretary of Interiors’ Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.
These stabilization measures have been developed in cooperation with Kitchell CEM, the contracting managers, for the implementation of the proposed work.

PAGE & TURNBULL 170 MAIDEN LANE, 5TH FLOOR SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA 94108 TEL 415-362-5154 BUILDING SUMMARY AND PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK:
Building 17 is a multi-winged building occupying an entire block in Alameda Point. The two-story tall building is designed in a simple modernist style and is constructed of concrete walls with punched openings. Windows have multiple configurations, con sist of both clear anodized aluminum frames and painted steel framed types. Doors are painted s teel framed with painted hollow metal doors.
The building is currently unoccupied. Many of the lower-level windows have existing plywood coverings, door openings have chain link coverings at the exterior. The plywood coverings are in poor condition, and the chain link enclosures are i n fair condition. The building interior has been identified as unsafe due to debris and potential hazardous materials.
The proposed scope of work as detailed in the Build ing 17 Stabilization RFP is to remove all existing plywood from the existing windows at all sides of t he building, to install new painted plywood coverings at the window and door openings on the gr ound level of the building, to repair the existing chain link enclosures, and to install perimeter security lighting at multiple locations on the building exterior.
Page & Turnbull have performed a window survey and have developed Sketch Building Elevations, a Preliminary Window Schedule and a typical detail fo r the proposed plywood coverings: these are attached to this report as an appendix. The items i n the appendix are intended to be the basis for any bids with bidders responsible for verifying the information in the appendix.
Attachment details for the plywood are intended to minimize the number of anchors that are placed into the building and to clarify minimum edge dista nces of anchors to the edges or corners of the concrete to minimize edge breakout/chipping of the concrete.
The selected bidders shall not perform any work wit hout approved shop drawings and approved product information.
