B. NOTES:
1. Use lines between spaces to indicate the centerline of the partition (for schematics only).
2. Indicate doors with a slash mark.
3. Along the corridor, the line shall represent the corridor side of the partition.
4. Indicate ceiling mounted equipment, lighting fixtures, air diffusers, registers, tracks, and other significant elements.
5. Identify all equipment for each room. Indicate and coordinate all equipment with the Equipment Guide List (Program Guide 7610) and Activated Equipment List. Use VA standard symbols and notation to distinguish between contractor-furnished and installed (CC), VA-furnished contractor-installed (VC), VA-furnished and installed (VV), VA-furnished with construction funds [VC(CF) and VV(CF)], and relocated (R) equipment. Equipment floor plans are not required for the offices, consultation rooms, classrooms, conference rooms, and waiting rooms within the above departments. Draw equipment details which are necessary for major decisions, though complete detailing is not required for this submittal.
6. Indicate existing finish schedule and notes on plan.
7. Label as required for schematic drawings. Coordinate new room numbering with medical center.
8. Use the same names on drawings as those used in the space program. Provide area figures in fractional form, e.g., 400/390. Indicate space provided, but not called for in the space program, as: -/390.
9. Label each service or activity listed in the Project Scope Data of the Design Program and indicate boundaries with a distinctive line. Include the activity code number (see Handbook 7610).
10. If the project requires exterior work, show all facades indicating massing, proposed fenestration and the building relationship to adjacent structures and the finish grade. Show all significant building materials, including their colors, any proposed roof top mechanical equipment, architectural screens, skylights, and stacks on the elevation drawings. If building is designed for future expansion (vertical and/or horizontal), delineate elevations with and without the future expansion. If project is an addition, show elevations of the existing building in sufficient detail to illustrate the relationship between the new and existing in terms of scale, material, and detail.
11. Define the relationship of the finish ground floor to finish grade at major entrances and docks.
12. Indicate construction including fire resistance rating, building materials and systems, and proposed sill and head heights of openings. Indicate both new and renovated areas on form provided by VA.
13. Define building configuration. Draw sections at the same scale as floor plans, normally 1:100 (1/8 inch). If the building abuts an existing structure, indicate in the section how the new floor elevations align with existing.
14. Identify psychiatric areas where special considerations are required to ensure the safety of patients (e.g. hard ceilings, safety glazing, etc.).
15. Indicate new building components and systems, such as window design, roofing system, special entryways, building "skin", and any special architectural elements for the project. Complete detailing of miscellaneous items is not required for this submission.
16. Indicate all building systems, materials, and future expansion, if applicable.
17. Submit a drawing for all which is part of the construction contract.
18. Provide square meters (feet) of lead paint and x-ray shielding to be removed.
19. Format provided in SPECIFICATIONS. If there is no VA master specification, develop contract specification that is in compliance with regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency.
