Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 9, September, 2024
Rule 203.00.16-001 - Arkansas Public School Academic Facility Manual
1000How To Use This Manual

Introduction

The Division of Public School Academic Facilities and Transportation (DPSAFT) is charged with overseeing the design and construction of school facilities in the state of Arkansas. The Arkansas Public School Academic Facility Manual (APSAFM) has been developed to provide consistent, clear information for school districts and design professionals as a new generation of schools is being created for Arkansas.

The standards and guidelines contained within this APSAFM are the culmination of standards, accepted procedures, statutory requirements and the experience of experts and authorities throughout the United States and establishes a uniform level of quality for all public school buildings.

Since standards and guidelines must communicate information about so many issues, the length and quantity of the document can be intimidating. However, understanding how the standards and guidelines are organized and which information will be needed during the various phases of the process will enable each participant to be better prepared for the exciting opportunity of creating school facilities.

An important consideration in developing a statewide program that must provide equity among districts is the balance between broadly applicable standards and educational program delivery. A fundamental tenet of educational facility planning is that school facilities must be responsive to a school district's educational program.

The standards and guidelines allow districts to develop building programs that respond to their current and unique needs as well as prepare for their educational future. There are also many different ways in which districts are delivering educational programs and helping students accomplish learning objectives at every grade level. By designing classrooms and other instructional spaces to be flexible and adaptable, individual districts are better prepared to accommodate future educational program developments.

Throughout the planning, design, and construction phases of a project there are three factors that must be considered and held in balance: quality, cost, and time (schedule). The standards and guidelines were created to provide parameters for balancing these three essential elements fairly for all projects throughout the state.

The standards and guidelines are intended as a starting point for architects, engineers, other design professionals, and school districts to develop solutions to meet the educational needs of the individual school community. The information is provided to allow the planning, design, and construction processes to proceed most efficiently, without undo restriction on the design of the facilities, focusing efforts on the creation of best possible school facilities for each project rather than "reinventing the wheel".

The APSAFM is the exclusive property of DPSAFT, who reserves the right to add, delete, modify, or otherwise change the content of this manual at any time. Specific information contained within the manual will be periodically modified to reflect current and future trends in teaching methodologies, educational programs and services, construction and education technologies, and lessons learned as Arkansas proceeds with the ongoing task of improving and maintaining its schools.

Facility Manual Organization

The APSAFM is organized into seven chapters that explain the planning, design, and construction processes; suggest current educational best practices, facility planning concepts, and recommend components of an education framework; identify the square footage provisions for each school grade level; detail the features and amenities of each space; provide systems, materials, guidelines, and information; and_provide technology infrastructure recommendations.

Each chapter begins with general comments, located on the left side of the page [left column], regarding the topic included in the chapter. Additionally, standards, which must be incorporated into each new and renovated school facility, are listed in the left column. Guidelines, which may be included in a text box or drawing, are located on the right side of the page [right column]. An example is shown to the right.

In conjunction with Chapter 2: Educational Facility Planning Concepts, Chapter 3 provides assistance when developing an educational facility.

Chapter 4: Site Guidelines

Chapter 4 contains information about site size and site amenities. Guidelines are also outlined for a multitude of factors that must be considered, including: various types of circulation and site access, drainage, play fields and playgrounds, fencing, lighting, mechanical/electrical yard, landscaping, site furnishings, and exterior security provisions.

Chapter 5: Program of Requirements

Chapter 5 assists the school district in establishing the size and quantity of instructional and support spaces for construction of a new facility or an addition to an existing facility. The size of a school facility is based on total student population and grade configuration. The Program of Requirements (POR) identifies an overall size in square feet for a facility and then identifies spaces that must be included in the school facility. The POR also provides an allowance for additional support spaces that the district may choose, based on their programs and methods of educational delivery.

Chapter 6: Program Space Guidelines

Chapter 6 contains space plates for each type of space in the POR. Most space plates contain a graphic representation and information related to features, loose furnishings, finishes, and notes. Space plates are intended to give information and are not meant to establish a design standard for the space.

Chapter 7: Building Systems

Chapter 7 provides design and performance standards and guidelines for the level of quality of the systems and materials to be incorporated into new school buildings and additions to existing school buildings.

2000Educational Facility Planning Concepts

Introduction

Arkansas Code Annotated § 6-21-806 entitled Academic Facilities Master Plan Program - School districts provides the framework for school facility planning in Arkansas. The law requires each school district to develop a six-year master plan that is approved by the district's board of directors. The district submits the master plan to the Division of Public School Academic Facilities and Transportation for approval.

The following milestones are pertinent to the master plan process:

* February 1 of each even-numbered year - districts must submit final master plans for the next six-year period. Districts that desire Academic Facilities Partnership Program project funding for the next two-year funding cycle must include the projects in the master plan.

* September 1 of each even-numbered year - the Division approves the master plan if all requirements are met.

* February 1 of each odd-numbered year - districts must submit a master plan report and preliminary master plan for the upcoming final master plan submission.

The master plan must include:

* A schedule of custodial activities for each public school facility.

* A schedule of maintenance, renovation, and repair activities.

* Documentation that describes preventative maintenance work.

* Annual expenditures for all custodial, maintenance, renovation, and repair activities.

* A projected replacement schedule for all major building system in each public school facility.

* Identification of issues with regard to public school facility and program access to individuals with disabilities.

* Identification of committed projects.

* Annual expenditures for capital outlay.

* A description of planned new construction projects with cost estimates.

* Evidence of the school district's insurance coverage.

* The division shall establish procedures and timelines for a school district to submit a preliminary facilities master plan or a master plan outline to the division before the submission of the school district's final facilities master plan.

* The preliminary facilities master plan or master plan outline shall form the basis for a consultation meeting between representatives of the school district and members of the division.

* As soon as practicable after submission of the preliminary facilities master plan or master plan outline, the division shall hold the consultation meeting with the school district to:

* Assure understanding of the general goals of this subchapter and the criteria by which projects will be evaluated

* Discuss ways the facilities master plan may be structured to meet the goals of this subchapter

* Assist school districts to prepare accurate budgets and reasonable project schedules, and

* Provide for efficiency and productivity in the approval process for local academic facilities projects and state financial participation in local projects.

It is important that time be set aside to consider what students will require to be successful in the future as the School District, Educational Planner, and Design Professionals begin to discuss the design, construction or renovation of school facilities. Consideration should be given to current and future trends in educational programs and delivery methods, changes in coursework, impact of technology on teaching methods, and social, economic, and world issues.

This chapter, along with Chapter 3000, should provide the Project Team with "fodder" to fuel the creative thinking process and develop a school facility that not only meets the standards and guidelines, but positions the district to achieve the highest results in student education.

The master plan consultation meeting between the school district and the division, generally conducted in the summer or fall of each odd-numbered year, provides an excellent opportunity for dialogue and enhances the district's preparation of a complete master plan that meets the district's goals.

Overview

Public education is at a unique point in history. We have transitioned from the industrial age to the information age, and as most organizations have already done, school districts across the country are considering changing the way they do business. School districts are investigating curricula, organizational models, and current and emerging technologies, the role of administration, and their local communities to determine the effect each of these has on student performance.

These investigations have resulted in a series of educational facility planning concepts intended to provide students with the greatest opportunity for success.

Implementing such concepts can have a significant impact on facilities. The following describes a few educational facility planning concepts, cites examples where they have been implemented, and expresses the impact each has on facilities. The information included with the examples is to help facilitate the planning, design and construction of school facilities.

Curriculum

Offer Essential Knowledge, Integrate It, and Make Connections to Real Life

* Based on federal and state content standards

* Require content areas to be linked to one another

* Accommodate multiple-intelligences and learning styles

* Demand critical thinking and problem-solving

* Incorporate pervasive technology

* Utilize multiple performance assessments

Educational Planning Concept

Investigation and research suggest that the core of the high school curriculum must offer both the substance and the practicality to prepare students for an uncertain future. The curriculum should strive to meet individual needs without comprising larger goals. Dr. Willard Daggett, President of the International Center for Leadership in Education and a national expert on education, claims that schools should "make education rigorous and relevant for all students". Daggett uses a Rigor and Relevance Matrix to categorize curricula into one of four quadrants.

Educational Planning Concept

Daggett defines rigor as the level of Bloom's Taxonomy of Thinking Skills achieved in any given lesson [creating, evaluating, analyzing, applying,

understanding, and remembering]. He defines relevance as a continuum ranging from "knowledge in one discipline" to "applications to real-world unpredictable situations".

Facilities Impact

Adopting curricula that offer essential knowledge, integrated approaches, and connections to real life can have a significant impact on facilities. Facilities may require student production for spaces for the creation of project work, small group rooms for collaboration, and large group spaces for students to present their work.

Organizational Models

Provide Student-Centered House Approach

Educational Planning Concept

Student-centered approaches provide students with a variety of opportunities to learn and develop skills and competencies based on their individual needs. Organizational models such as grade-level teaming, schools-within-a-school, and thematic approaches often characterize these student-centered approaches.

Organizational Models

Provide Student-Centered House Approach

Examples

* Grade-Level Teaming

Grade-level teaming is based on organizing the building into separate grade-level units. Grade-level teams typically utilize an interdisciplinary approach.

* Schools-Within-A-School

A schools-within-a-school is based upon multiple units of grades housed in the same facility, with separate governing bodies. Thus, a large school can be divided into smaller, more personalized "houses".

* Thematic Teaming

Thematic teaming is based on delivering curriculum within the context of a specific theme. Themes may include Science and Math, Fine and Performing Arts, or Foreign Language and Literature.

Facilities Impact

Implementing these organizational models, specifically the house concept, may offer significant advantages to the delivery of curriculum and observation of students. While the impact these models have on facilities is continually being evaluated in terms of major systems, it typically should not outweigh the educational advantages.

Technology

Create Pervasive and Integrated Systems

* Access to voice, video, data, and electrical outlets provided in every instructional space.

* Proficiencies incorporated into other content areas

* Utilize distance-learning opportunities

* Staff development

Educational Planning Concept

Technology continues to evolve and influence education. Technology has previously been perceived as a stand-alone content area with its own dedicated spaces. Today, technology is most often incorporated into every learning space and curriculum. Incorporating technology can accomplish two basic goals of education: linking traditionally isolated content areas and providing teachers with tools to utilize understanding of multiple intelligences in their lessons.

Howard Gardner has indicated in "Frames of Mind" that there are several different types of intelligences (linguistic, mathematical, musical, kinesthetic, spatial, intrapersonal,

interpersonal, and natural intelligence). Each person has strengths in some intelligences and weaknesses in others. Experts have indicated that students retain more information when several intelligences are involved in the learning process. For example, the NTL Institute reports that students retain only 10% of what they read, but retain 90% of what they teach others and use immediately, which involves all the intelligences on the Learning Pyramid.

Facilities Impact

Incorporating technology into all learning spaces and into all curricula can have a significant impact on facilities. First, all learning spaces require access to voice, video, data ports, and electrical outlets. Second, infrastructure must be designed in such a way to allow access for maintenance and upgrades as technology continues to evolve.

Administration

Increase Student Contact and Flexibility

Educational Planning Concept

As a result of recent violent crimes occurring in school facilities, school districts across the country are searching for both active and passive means of security. While not the only reason for decentralizing administration, it may serve this purpose. The decentralization of administrative services may also provide the flexibility and opportunity for increased student contact, decreased student anonymity, and opportunities for passive supervision.

In addition, assistant principals, deans, and counselors for teams, are closer to the students and teachers, and can more efficiently use their time, expertise, and resources because their offices are located in the academic clusters. Communication between administrators is not an issue, as access to instructional information and student records can be achieved through the effective use of technology. This arrangement can maintain a positive and secure environment.

Facilities Impact

Decentralizing administration affects facilities only by the necessity to relocate offices and support spaces within each learning community and/or other areas.

Community Use

Instill a Sense of Participation, Ownership, and Pride

* Cooperative Alliances

* Youth Services

* Shared Decision-Making

* Community Service Volunteers

* Parent Involvement

* School/College Partnerships

Planning Concepts

Facilities can serve as instructional centers for students as well as user-friendly centers for the community. Facilities may provide program and access to resources for adults, businesses, and other community organizations. Community/ school partnerships play an increasing role in school facilities. These partnerships provide students with expanded learning opportunities, professional development opportunities for staff, and a venue for community activities.

Facilities Impact

Providing access to and forming partnerships with the community can have a significant impact on facilities. Additional spaces such as parent or community volunteer rooms, community locker rooms, and storage spaces may be necessary. In addition, for security purposes, community access may require careful attention to the organization of the facility. Community accessible portions of the facility may need to be located in areas that permit the remainder of the facility to be secure before, during, and after school hours.

Sections 2100 - Special Education and 2200 have been moved to Chapter 3.

Summary

As a result of the transition to the information age as well as the aging of facilities, school districts are investigating curricula, organizational models, current and emerging technologies, the role of administration, and their local communities to determine the effect each has on student performance.

The research and investigations provided within this chapter describes educational facility planning concepts that suggest the following:

* Curriculum - Offer Essential Knowledge, Integrate It, and Make Connections to Real Life

* Organizational Models - Provide Student-Centered House Approach

* Technology - Create Pervasive and Integrated System

* Administration - Increase Student Contact and Flexibility

* Community Use - Instill a Sense of Participation, Ownership, and Pride

These concepts are not intended to be solutions to all of the issues confronting schools. Schools may choose to utilize the concepts as they work as a team to determine how best to provide educational opportunities and improve student achievement.

3000Educational Framework

Educational Framework

School Size

School size is based on the number of students projected to attend a particular school facility. For the number of students by grade level the Program of Requirements provides the total required school size that contains both the required spaces and a support space allowance needed to adequately meet the needs of the students.

The Program of Requirements found in Chapter 5 provides required spaces and a support space allowance for the selection of spaces needed for the various program areas found in each grade level of school.

Class Size

Class size (or maximum class size) is defined as the number of students occupying a space at one time. Class size is not necessarily synonymous with student teacher ratio.

[DOT] Kindergarten

20 students

[DOT] 1st Grade through 3rd Grade

25 students

[DOT] 4th Grade through 6th Grade

28 students

[DOT] 7th Grade through 12th Grade

[DOT] High schools and K-12 combinations schools must provide access to at least on Program of Study within each occupational area in grades 9-12.

Note: Access to a [CE] occupational area can occur in the following ways:

* On-site

* Through a partnership with an off-site organization.

Kindergarten

Kindergarten courses will be delivered all day.

Programs

As programs and services change, it is important that each School District identify the current and future educational needs of its students. Once those needs have been identified, the District should then determine the types of instructional programs that will result in a successful student. The Standards & Guidelines are based on current and future trends in education and include the following programs. As stated above, ultimately, each District should determine the appropriate programs for its students.

* Elementary Schools

* Core Academic

3100High Performance Learning Environments

High Performance Learning Environments

High Performance Learning Environments have their own learning models and distinguishing characteristics, which have implications for the design of the curriculum as well as the physical facility.

In Section 3000, three environments were described in detail:

* Traditional Learning Environment (TLE)

* Student Centered Learning Environment (SCLE)

* Blended Learning Environment (BLE)

All three types of learning environments may contain a variety of spaces, such as:

* Collaborative large group spaces

* Project spaces

* Niche spaces for individual and small group work

* Individual study spaces and work stations with storage

* Science/discovery areas

* Break-out spaces

* Reconfigurable labs for science, art, and project activities

* Learner display areas

* Formal and informal presentation spaces

* Combined music, art, performance, and dance labs or studios

* Wellness and physical education space beyond the traditional "basketball only" gymnasium

* Outdoor learning spaces

* Varied food service and dining areas throughout the facility

* Common spaces serving as multi-purpose/multi-function spaces

* Welcoming entries

* Indoor and outdoor connectivity

* Facilitator spaces

* School and community connectivity and shared spaces Additionally, all three types of learning environments should:

* Support self-directed learning

* Provide for individual and small group instruction

* Encourage problem-solving

* Promote socializing among participants

* Encourage learner discovery

* Allow instructor-guided learning

* Allow for continuous assessment of learner knowledge and mastery level

These sp aces should bring students and facilitators together, ensuring that the environment promotes, rather than constrains, learning.

3200Special Education

Special Education

The Arkansas Department of Education - Special Education Unit complies with the Federal Regulations for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and the APSAFM provides square footage guidelines to comply with the educational program requirements. IDEA requires a District to provide a full continuum of services in a student's neighborhood/home school to the greatest extent possible in the Least Restrictive Environment.

The Rules and Regulations Governing Special Education and Related Services: Procedural Requirements and Program Standards provide eligibility criteria for students with disabilities to meet the Least Restrictive Environment requirement for all special needs students. These criteria assist in differentiating the type and number of spaces that are needed in each school to address the facility needs for students with disabilities. As each School District is planning for specific educational program needs in its new or renovated facilities, identifying the number of students in each of these options is important to provide appropriately the unique space requirements. The terms used to establish eligibility criteria are provided as part of this document to assist in identifying all of the students who need to be considered in the facility program needs.

3300Career Education

Career Education

Introduction

The current Standards for Accreditation of Public Schools require that secondary educational facilities offer a minimum of three programs of study from three different occupational areas. A list of all approved occupational areas, clusters or pathways, and programs of study is included in this manual to assist school districts, educational planners, and design professionals with anticipating space needs for these requirements.

In order to meet the needs of Career Education programs, adequate laboratory, classroom, storage, and office space is needed. Chapter 5: Program of Requirements [Bracketing] contains a detailed list of the spaces that a District may include when designing a high school facility with Career Education programs and the required size for each space.

It is important to point out that the District should determine the Occupational Areas to be delivered, the associated cluster or pathways, and the programs of study and then proceed to Chapter 5 to complete the Program of Requirement Worksheet. When completing the worksheet, the Project Team should select the laboratory space for each program of study and the related spaces such as offices, tool rooms, and storage needed to serve the laboratory space. Additional information can be found in Chapter 5.

4000Site Selection and Design

Site Selection and Design

Purpose

The purpose of this chapter is to provide the School District and the Design Professional with informative guidelines to consider prior to selection, purchase, and development of a site. DPSAFT has not established standards with respect to site selection and design. Information is included for informational purposes only.

Site Selection Criteria

At first look, a potential site may appear to be a good acquisition. There are many factors, however, that can distort the picture. A site may be reduced in size if wetlands the site or if part of the area is in a floodplain. There should be a watershed nearby to allow for adequate storm drainage. Irregular topography can escalate site development costs. Adequate area is needed to retain and release storm water from the site.

Access to and from the site, from a major highway or road artery is an important factor. In addition to understanding surface characteristics, sub-surface conditions may require exploration. Preliminary soil borings should be considered to ascertain the presence of poor soil, high water table, voids, or other impediments. A Phase I environmental study should be a requirement.

Site Design

With a good site available, site design and layout becomes the next task. Good site design includes separate bus and car circulation, safe passage for students entering or exiting buses, and bus parking arranged in a continuous line or a 45 degree parking arrangement.

Visitor and staff parking and a separate service drive is recommended.

Orientation of the building is an important factor when considering energy usage. A majority of the windows should be located on the north or south side of the building. Easy access to the main entrance should be obvious to all.

Good site design requires careful and thorough planning to provide maximum safety, and efficient utilization of site features.

Site Size

The recommended minimum site size found in this section should be considered when considering a new school site. The size guidelines are consistent with those recommended in the Council of Educational Facility Planners International (CEFPI), Guide for School Facility Appraisal.

Site Size

* Recommended minimum site sizes are:

* Elementary School: 10 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students

* Middle School: 20 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students

* High School: 35 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students

* Combination Schools:

* K-12 School: 40 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students

* K-8 School: 20 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students

* Deviations from recommended minimum site sizes may be needed because of extenuating circumstances, especially in urban areas.

* Larger site sizes or additional acreage may be needed to allow adequate land for storm water detention, building expansion, topography features, subsurface sanitary sewage systems, etc.

Urban Site Size

It is recognized that not all sites, especially those found in urban areas, will be able to accommodate new or replacement facilities. Therefore, it may be necessary to modify/reduce areas such as parking and circulation to "fit" the facility on the smaller site. A list of reductions to consider is provided to assist the School District and Design Professional in analyzing different size options.

* Decrease the amount of visitor and staff parking to be provided

* Decrease the amount of student parking provided

* Decrease the amount of mechanical yard space to be provided

* Delete the bus drop-off and parent drop-off areas and provide curbside service only

* Reduce the amount of greenspace to be provided

* Reduce/decrease the size/number of playfields/playgrounds to be provided

Parking

* The following chart is intended to assist in the development of the recommended parking for new facilities.

* Provide the suggested number of accessible parking spaces as indicated in the chart below.

* Confirm all parking quantities with local building, planning, and/or zoning departments.

* It is suggested that staff parking be located in a secured area separated from other facility parking.

* Check to see that the number of parking spaces equals or exceeds the requirements of the local governing agencies.

Outdoor Athletic and Recreation Fields

* When selecting a site, consideration should be given regarding the size and configuration of type and quantity of outdoor athletic and recreation fields to be accommodated.

* The designer should consider drainage, circulation, access, and the need for bleacher seating when determining school site sizes.

Site Design General

Following are additional factors to consider when detemilning the merits of a potential site:

* Topography

* Vehicle Access

* Soil Characteristics

* Site Utilities

* Site Preparation

* Codes and Zoning

* Adjacent Property

* Easements/Rights-of-Way

* Environmental Restrictions

* Testing

* Aesthetic Considerations

* Vehicular Circulation

* Pedestrian Circulation

* Storm Sewer System

* Detention Pond

* Sanitary/Sewerage

* Directional Signage

* Playgrounds

* Lighting

* Landscaping

* Positive Drainage

Topography

* A reasonably level area is needed to accommodate buildings, parking, student playgrounds, and physical education areas.

* There should be sufficient slope to allow for positive drainage to storm sewer outlets or other discharge points.

* Retain natural features.

* Land whose elevation is lower than 5 feet above the elevation of the 100 year flood as defined by FEMA should not be considered for development.

Vehicular Access

* A traffic study may be needed to predict the impact of the school at peak times of arrival and dismissal.

* Consult local street or highway department for turn lane, drive widths, and radius requirements.

* Review site distances at proposed entry exit for hazardous conditions.

* Two or three entry/exit points into the site are recommended to provide appropriate separation of car and bus traffic.

Soil Characteristics

* Obtain preliminary soil borings to obtain characteristics for foundation design, pavement design, storm sewer design, and excavation requirements.

* The presence of high ground water may result in the need for an underground drainage system.

* Erosion characteristics may affect the need for temporary measures, such as silt fence, etc.

Site Utilities

* Storm water may need to be detained on site and released at a rate that will not exceed current runoff rates and meets requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

* Sewage from school buildings should be discharged into an approved sewage system per applicable codes.

Site Utilities - cont'd

* A water flow test will provide data on the available water flow in gallons per minute (gpm), static pressure available, and available residual pressure for fire protection systems.

* If a local water service is not available, an on-site well system may be needed. An on-site well system may be needed to provide water for domestic use and fire protection systems. The Environmental Protection Agency should be contacted to make an evaluation of the proposed well system.

* The Site Design Professional should evaluate the need and method of providing gas service to the building. If natural gas service is not available, the installation of liquid propane (LP) gas should be investigated.

Site Preparation

* Consider clearing-site vegetation only as necessary for building, parking, roads, and walks.

* Adequate space should be available on-site for construction staging - location of stockpiles, portable field offices, storage of construction materials, and equipment.

* Consider methods to reduce the loss of soil during construction by storm water runoff and/or wind erosion, including topsoil.

* Sediment should be prevented from running off into storm sewer or receiving streams.

* Every effort should be made to minimize disruption to the site.

Codes and Zoning

* Incompatible or nonconforming zoning may necessitate a zoning change variance or a special exception land use permit.

* Zoning ordinance restrictions such as building height, setback, fence height, landscaping, screening requirements, placement and design of site signage and size of parking spaces can affect site development costs and flexibility.

Adjacent Property

* Screening of noise and views may be required. Minimize environmental pollution.

* Consider the safety of children walking to and from the school site during use of outdoor athletic and play facilities.

* Adjacent railroad rights-of-way or busy streets may require the use of earth berms, landscaping, and/or fencing.

Easements/Rights-of-Way

* Easements and rights-of-way for roads, sewers, gas, power, water, and oil lines should be researched for potential development restrictions.

* Acquisition of additional rights-of-way may be required to accommodate left turn lanes, tapers, passing blisters, and utility extensions.

Environmental restrictions

* Wetland delineation must be performed if the presence of a wetland is suspected.

* A designated wetland may prevent site development.

* Mitigation may be needed if a wetland is to be disturbed.

* Consider air pollution reduction methods.

Testing

* A Phase I Environmental Assessment should be completed to evaluate the potential for environmental liabilities associated with current and past property use and to assess regulatory compliance.

* Consider performing a site investigation and records search of hazardous materials used, stored, or disposed of on the property; proximity to landfills; adjoining property uses; proximity to properties listed on the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System.

Testing - cont'd

* A Phase II Environmental Assessment may be required for areas of the site which indicate the potential for asbestos and other contaminants.

Aesthetic considerations

* It is preferable to choose a site with natural features compatible and complementary to the proposed building and site development.

Vehicular Circulation

* Maintain separate car and bus circulation areas. Buses should not be required to back up.

* Diagonal bus parking spaces should be 12 feet to 13 feet wide by the length of the bus. Spaces may be aligned at a 45-degree to 60-degree angle to the curb.

* Angle diagonal bus parking spaces so the bus exit door will allow children to exit in front of the adjacent bus.

* Provide parking spaces near delivery/receiving area for food service and custodial staff.

* Locate staff parking near visitor parking for economy of pavement design where possible. Staff parking can also be located to one side of the bus parking lot in the area not required for bus traffic.

* Consult building codes for parking space number and size.

Pedestrian Circulation

* Consider constructing walks a minimum of 8-foot wide and a maximum of 12-foot wide from major drop-off drives to major entrances. Minor connecting walks are to be a minimum of 5-foot wide.

* Walks should be reinforced concrete, a minimum of 4 inches thick, with light broom finish. Consider thickened or reinforced edges.

* Walk slope should be a minimum of 1 percent and a maximum of 1:20. If walk exceeds 1:20, it should be designed as a ramp.

* Provide bollards at main entrance walk to block vehicles.

Storm Sewer System

* Create positive drainage away from building. Collect storm water in a series of inlets or swales to be detained and filtered on-site.

* Connect the building site storm drainage system by means of downspouts or roof drains to the building storm drainage system.

* All storm piping should be designed using the 10-year return period and intensity-duration curves consistent with the region.

* All storm piping and culverts should have a smooth interior. All pipes with a diameter greater than 24 inches shall be concrete, aluminized steel, or HDPE.

* Design the project site to maintain natural slope and water flows by promoting infiltration.

* Reuse storm water volumes generated for non-potable uses such as landscape irrigation, toilet and urinal flushing, and custodial use.

Detention Pond

* Detention ponds should be designed to prevent storm water from flowing off the site at a rate greater than permitted by the authorities having jurisdiction. Detention ponds are normally dry except after rainfalls.

* Side slopes should not exceed 4:1 and may be increased to 2:1 in the immediate vicinity of headwalls or other discharge control devices.

* All detention ponds which serve an area greater than 15 acres should be designed using an appropriate hydrograph method. The inflow hydrograph shall be routed through the pond using standard engineering methods to obtain the discharge hydrograph.

* Provide riprap or other erosion control measures at inlet and outlet of pond.

Sanitary/Sewerage

* The disposal of sanitary sewerage to the local utility should be approved by the local authority having jurisdiction.

* Appropriate methods for the disposal or treatment of sanitary sewerage consists of conventional gravity sewer, force main, septic with leach field system, or sand filter and on-site treatment plants.

Directional Signage

* Provide "Stop", "Yield", "No Parking", "One-Way", "Do Not Enter", or other signs as necessary to maintain a fluid traffic stream.

* Signs, and the installation of signs, are to meet the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

* For handicap signage consult ADA requirements.

Playgrounds

* Play equipment to be in compliance with "ASTM F 1487-95 or most current version of the Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification for Playground Equipment for Public Use" and the current guidelines for public play equipment by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission.

* The design of play equipment should comply with Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines.

* Provide a firm, stable, slip-resistant, and resilient soft surface under and around play equipment. Depth and type of soft surfaces should comply with ASTM F 1292-99 or most current version of Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surface Systems Under and Around Playground Equipment.

* Provide an accessible route of travel through soft-surface play area. Choice of surfacing and minimum areas of surfacing required should comply with Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines.

Lighting

* Provide a 10-footcandle illumination level at main building entrances. Provide a 5-footcandle illumination level at all entrances except main entrance.

* Light fixtures should be high-density discharge type located directly over doors, or high-density discharge type recessed in overhangs or soffits located directly over doors. Fixtures shall be designed for exterior use. Wall-mounted fixtures shall be vandal resistant.

* Provide an illumination level of 0.5 foot-candles at entrance/exit drives. Provide an illumination of 1.0 foot-candles within parking areas and bus drop- off/pick-up areas.

Lighting - cont'd

* Lighting should be high-intensity discharge type located on poles with a concrete base. Pole height shall be a maximum of 39 feet. Lighting shall be controlled by photoelectric cells, time clocks, or time management system. The Site Design Professional should have discussions with the School District to determine light fixture switching and time clock programming.

* Minimize site lighting where possible and model the site lighting using a computer model.

* Consider shielding all site lighting and minimize uplighting.

Landscaping

* Should not exceed 3:1 slope on lawn areas where mowing is required.

* On slopes greater than 3:1, provide slope controlled vegetation to retard erosion. Consider safety of children.

* Provide low maintenance shrubs and flowering trees to emphasize main building entries.

* Consider limiting or eliminating the use of potable water for landscape irrigation.

Positive Drainage

* At building perimeter, exterior grade should be 8 inches or more below first floor level, except at entrances. The ground around the building perimeter shall slope down and away from the building for a minimum of 20 feet to eliminate any standing water.

5000Program of Requirements

Program of Requirements

Introduction

A Program of Requirements (POR) is a compilation of the instructional and support spaces to be incorporated into a new or renovated school facility. The type, size and quantity of each space are included, resulting in a total gross square footage of the proposed building or renovation.

The POR establishes minimum adequate components, and total square footage required in a school construction project.

The following link may be accessed to download the POR.

Program of Requirements

Before developing a POR, the School District must develop a thorough understanding of its educational mission, vision, and objectives to insure that the project meets current and future student instructional needs. After projected enrollment, grade configuration, and educational programs are established, the District works together with its Design Professional(s) to review and complete the interactive POR spreadsheet.

6000Introduction

Introduction

Purpose

The information in this chapter consists of a diagram, features, loose furnishing, finishes, and notes which is referred to as a "space plate." There is a space plate for each room in each program area in each school level. The purpose is to provide the Design Professionals and School Districts with guidelines to condition, finish, and equip each space.

Description

The diagram is not intended to fix the size or shape of that room. The size of each space is stated in the bracketing chapter (Chapter 5). Features noted are desirable, but quantities must be determined in relation to the size and capacity stated in the bracketing section. In some cases, casework can be fixed or movable. Loose furnishings are normally furniture items needed to complete the space.

Each room has a unique code that appears in the bracketing section and on the space plate. Example: E-AC-1 (E = elementary, AC = academic core, 1 = space plate #1).

Finishes are suggested options from life-cycle analysis that resulted in economical, durable, and maintainable finishes. Refer to material standards and guidelines in Chapter 7.

Plumbing, HVAC, and electrical provisions must, first of all, conform to all appropriate building and energy codes. In addition to the notes on each space plate, design professionals should provide good design recommendations that enhance code requirements where possible.

Technology is a vital part of the teaching programs. Careful programming and early infrastructure inclusion in the design of the facility is recommended.

7000Introduction

Introduction

Purpose

The intent of Chapter 7 is to provide standards and guidelines necessary to plan, design and construct school facilities throughout the state of Arkansas. The focus is on building systems and materials that will provide buildings that are economical and reflect quality construction, along with mandatory performance standards, additional options and available choices. All items and systems, such as loose furnishings, casework, technology, etc., should be integrated early in the planning phase of the project.

Definitions

The planning and design of school facilities shall be based upon criteria described in Chapter 7 in accordance with the following definitions:

"Standards" - Performance or construction required items for which there is mandatory adherence.

"Guidelines" - Performance or construction items which are recommended, but NOT required.

"Components", "Examples" - Typical element(s) of standards or guidelines.

Codes and Standards

Applicable local, state, and international building codes and standards are not repeated in this chapter. It is the responsibility of the design professionals to conform to the current codes in their design process. Should the standards contained in this manual be in conflict with international, state, or local codes, the established codes shall prevail. The requirements of ADAAG (Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines) should be consulted.

No attempt has been made to provide detailed specifications in Chapter 7. Standards and guidelines are available that allow architects and engineers the flexibility to design to fit the School District needs.

Applicability

The construction and performance standards and guidelines contained herein are applicable to both new construction of public school facilities and renovation of existing public school facilities. Every attempt should be made to apply these standards and guidelines to existing buildings, in gradual steps as funding and other influences allow (refer to Chapter 1). It may be recognized that some standards may not be compatible with existing facilities in renovation projects nor may it be possible to completely conform a performance or construction standard to a new facility. In those instances, variances to those standards, upon request, may be granted by the Division.

1. The heating, ventilating, and air conditioning system design standards criteria denoted as a part of this Facility Manual have been developed or are obtained directly from accepted engineering design references such as the ASHRAE handbooks and standards, the state of Arkansas code references, and good engineering practice. School HVAC system plans and specifications shall be prepared by a licensed professional engineer with a valid Arkansas registration. The HVAC Design Professional shall review each requirement and obtain or develop the necessary information for each specific building before proceeding with the systems design.
2. All systems shall be designed in compliance with ASHRAE Standard 90.1 "Energy Standard for Buildings except Low-Rise Residential Buildings", as modified by the Arkansas Energy Code.
3. All HVAC products shall be rated in accordance with the applicable ARI rating program (where rating has been established) or products manufactured in compliance with policies of the Arkansas HVACR Licensing Board and in compliance with Arkansas Law.
4. All new construction shall include air-conditioning except in some physical education and indoor practice facility spaces as hereinafter defined. Variances will be considered by the Division upon request.

Guidelines - HVAC System Selection Life Cycle Cost Analysis

* Several HVAC systems are applicable to Arkansas Schools. System selection should be based on a life cycle cost analysis of a minimum of three alternative systems. This requirement for System Selection Life Cycle Cost Analysis applies to New Construction, including new buildings and additions to existing buildings, and the replacement to upgrade HVAC units in existing buildings when the cumulative cooling tonnage exceeds 16 tons. The Life Cycle Cost Analysis should be submitted with the project final review documents. This analysis may be considered as an extra service to the design contract.

* The following are examples of acceptable programs for use in generating a detailed evaluation of proposed heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems. Further, the building load calculations necessary for the design of each building will require the use of computer-generated data. Equivalent computer programs that are able to generate the necessary data for evaluation of the proposed heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems and for generation of the building load data will be considered, but must be submitted for approval prior to use.

* Trane Trace 700 (or the most recent version of Trane Trace)

The Trane Trace 700 program is a PC based program used by the HVAC Design Professional for generation of detailed building system air conditioning loads, energy consumption analysis, and economic analysis. The current version can be obtained from the Trane Company, Customer Direct Service (CDS) Network, La Crosse, WI, (608) 787-3926.

* Carrier HAP (or the most recent version of Carrier HAP)

The Carrier Hourly Analysis Program is a PC based program used by the HVAC Design Professional for generation of detailed building system air conditioning loads, energy consumption analysis, and economic analysis. The current version can be obtained by contacting the local Carrier equipment representative or by calling (800) 253-1794.

The DOE-2.E is a detailed energy analysis program developed through the United States Department of Energy. A number of vendors across the country have developed software that operates to meet the intent of the DOE-2.E program. Contact the Energy Science and Technology Software Center at (865) 576-2606.

* Occupancy loads and schedules will mirror the building usage schedules. Input occupancy should be calculated at 90 percent of capacity during normal school hours for classroom areas and the administration area. After hours occupancy can be considered negligible in these areas. Activity areas such as gymnasiums should be calculated at no more than 25 percent of the full load capacity during unoccupied operation.

* Lighting systems should be consistent throughout the building. The lighting load shall be input for consideration as a cooling load only, and should not be used to credit the winter heating load. Lighting loads should comply with the Arkansas Energy Code. The HVAC Design Professional should coordinate and review proposed lighting requirements for each building with the Electrical Design Professional prior to generating a final energy load analysis. Usage of the lighting systems should mirror the occupancy scheduling for each area in the building.

* Computer Locations and expected usage will impact every building designed. All classroom areas will be wired for computers. Include a minimum of 280 watts for each computer station in the building. This load includes the total expected heat gain for a desktop computer and color monitor.

Guidelines - HVAC Outdoor Air Design Values

* Summer and winter outside air design values should be derived from standard ASHRAE compiled weather data located in the latest edition of the ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook. The city nearest the proposed construction project is to be selected for evaluation. Use the 99.6 percent design values for heating design dry-bulb and the 1 percent design values for cooling design dry-bulb and mean coincidental wet- bulb. To determine the maximum ventilation capacity, use the 1 percent design values for Humidification design dew point and mean coincident dry bulb.

Guidelines - HVAC Indoor Air Design Values

* Indoor air temperature design values should reflect the need for energy conservation and should be in accordance with the Arkansas Mechanical Code and the Arkansas Energy Code.

* Design should produce indoor conditions in accordance with ASHRAE Standard 55 "Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy."

* Night setback controls should be used for all systems. Temperature should be 55 degrees Fahrenheit. The summer setup temperature shall operate as required to maintain a relative humidity in the building area that does not exceed 60 percent. Maintaining humidity levels below 60 percent will result in periodic operation of the HVAC system during the summer months to reduce the potential for mold and mildew in the building.

Standards - HVAC Outdoor Air Ventilation

Guidelines - HVAC Welding Ventilation

* Different ventilation strategies may be needed in each specific case to remove air contaminants from the welder's breathing zone. General guidelines have been published in CSA W117.2 Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes, and ANSI Z49.1 Standard Safety in Welding and Cutting.

* Mechanical ventilation should be required when welding takes place in a space less than 10,000 cubic feet per welder, or in a room with a ceiling height of less than 16 feet. Mechanical ventilation should be at a rate of 2,000 cubic feet per minute per welder. See subsequent items below.

* Dependent on the application and associated hazard, ventilation strategies fall into three general categories: Natural Dilution Ventilation, Mechanical Dilution Ventilation, and Local Exhaust Ventilation

* Night setback controls should be used for all systems

* Natural Dilution Ventilation involves introduction of fresh air into the welding area through non-mechanical mean such as opening windows and doors, and the use of exterior wall louvers. This type of ventilation is generally considered the least effective, since there is no control on movement of contaminants through the work area.

* Mechanical Dilution Ventilation involves the use of wall or roof exhaust fans to draw contaminants away from the welder's breathing zone

* Local Exhaust Ventilation involves the use of dedicated exhaust hoods or movable hoods to remove contaminants from the welder's breathing zone. Movable hoods are ducted to a central exhaust system and provide the best removal of contaminants. Local exhaust ventilation is always the preferred method for removing welding fumes and gases.

* Exhaust hoods should provide a minimum velocity of 100 feet per minute

* A downdraft exhaust bench is preferred over an overhead exhaust hood

* Exhaust air velocities higher than 100 feet per minute at the arc or flame may disturb the process or shielding gas.

* Obtain the services of an HVAC design professional for special cases and when welding materials that produce high toxicity levels system. Building additions where less than 50% of the square footage is being added to a school campus without a DDC system may utilize 7-day programmable thermostats.

Standards - Technology Wiring

1. Media Standards

* Unshielded twisted pair

* The minimum standard for horizontal distribution wiring is six (6) cables of category 5e or higher, 4- pair, 24-gauge unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring, terminated in each classroom. The standard specifies 100-ohms impedance at one (1) megahertz, satisfying Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) and Institute of Electrical and

Guidelines - Technology - Optional System

* The Technology Design may (optional) include a Security System.

Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 10BaseT requirements.

* Fiber Optics

* The media standard for both intra- and inter-building backbones is OM2 50/125 micron graded-index multimode optical fiber cable. A minimum of ten fiber strand cable should be installed for each cable run.

* Grade of optical fiber cable shall increase based on distance anticipated bandwidth requirements. All optical fiber located outside or in a wet location shall be OSP rated, loose tube construction, and shall comply with ICEA S-87-640 for mechanical properties. Exposed OSP rated cable shall not exceed 50 feet within the building.

* Cross-connect jumpers and patch cables shall be of the same performance or greater and shall be factory manufactured modular cords.

* Comply with NEC and TIA-569-C for separating unshielded copper telecommunications cable from potential EMI sources.

* Install plenum rated cable in environmental air spaces, including plenum ceilings.

Guidelines - Technology Wiring

Media wiring specifications are a minimum of category 5e. When bandwidth is expected to be above category 5e of 1 Gigabit per second (Gb/s or 100 Mhz) then category 6 or 6A for up to 10 Gigabit or 200+ Mhz should be used. From a future proofing perspective, it is always better to install the best cabling available. This is because it is so difficult to replace cabling inside walls, in ducts under floors and other difficult places to access. The rationale is that cabling will last at least 10 years and will support at least four to five generations of equipment during that time. If future equipment running at much higher data rates requires better cabling, it will be very expensive at that later time to pull out category 5e cabling and to install category 6 or 6A cabling. Category 6 250 Mhz minimum is recommended.

Guidelines - Telecommunication Room Wiring

* A telecommunication room (TR) is a local communications equipment room. This should be a dedicated room providing a secure environment for the installation and termination of cable network electronics and other telecommunications equipment, as specified in the ADE IT Security Policy (ISTP), 2B2.

Every effort should be made to secure as large an area as possible. When one MC is insufficient to cover a building, additional TRs must be established. The same parameters apply for both TRs and MCs.

* Locate telecommunication rooms awayfrom any sources of electromagnetic interference, such as electrical power-supply transformers, motors, and generators. There should be no water sourcesin this area.

* There should be one telecommunications room for each 20,000 square feet zone/wing/building section. The recommended minimum closet size is 8 feet by 9 feet. Closets should be designed with adequate conduit or openings through beams and other obstructions into the accessible ceiling space. Closets should be designed with controls to limit access to authorized personnel only, as specified in the ADE IT Security Policy (ITSP), 2B2.

* Cable runs exceeding 500 feet may require the use of fiber optic cable. Exterior installations can have the cable above or below ground

* Exterior installations can have the cable above or below ground.

* Recorders: NVR's should be used if network bandwidth allows.

* Monitors: An additional 20-inch (minimum) color monitor should be mounted on the ceiling at the public entrance to show that cameras are being used in the public areas.

Videoconferencing classrooms require special attention to ensure that the highest quality sound and visual signals are transmitted and received by participants. The following are recommendations on the building of interactive videoconferencing rooms:

* Location: A quiet, convenient and central location is best. It should be isolated or separated from the sources of loud outside noise. This minimizes the need for sound isolation treatment. The room should be near an area that allows for direct and indirect supervision of the class (for monitoring students, security and liability reasons). Access should be suitable for a person with a physical disability. A ground floor location is preferable. Areas to avoid are those that are located near high traffic areas, lifts, plumbing, workshops, and plant rooms. Care should be taken to diminish the sounds from the air conditioning ducts, the gymnasium, band room, shop, or cafeteria.

* Classroom Size: Classroom size depends on the maximum number of participants you hope to have in your room. We suggest planning for a minimum of 20 participants, but ideally be prepared to accommodate at least 25, with tables and chairs. The space should be approximately 24 feet wide by 30 feet long, with a ceiling of 9 feet minimum, to accommodate compressed interactive equipment along with 20 students, or a majority of the faculty for staff development. For teaching seminar groups involving 100 or more, the system should be placed in a lecture theatre setting. Consideration shall be given for appropriate acoustics.

* Classroom Shape: To reduce acoustic effects, square rooms should be avoided, if possible. An oblong or irregular shaped room is a better shape, as it does not encourage standing waves (and thus echoes).

* Physical Layout: Room layout will depend on the number of participants, the available space and the purpose of the room. Layout is a compromise between clear audio, the best viewing of monitors, interaction, and the space available.

* Acoustics: Audio quality is one of the most critical technical elements in a successful videoconference, and it has implications for the selection and placing of the room, as well as for its construction and treatment. The participants and presenters must hear each other clearly, both locally and remotely, without strain. Some factors influence the quality of the sound in a videoconference; namely, ambient noise, room acoustics and reverberation, and equipment configuration.

* Acoustic treatment of rooms will need to be executed with materials that satisfy the relevant building regulations, so it is essential that this work be supervised by qualified staff.

* The internal acoustics of a room are very important. Too much reverberation (echoes in a closed room) will present problems. Rooms should not be too absorbent, as this will present an unnatural and uncomfortable environment for the participants. A room that suffers badly from echoes should have the acoustic treatment applied to the adjacent walls rather than the two opposite ones. This will allow standing waves to be reduced in two dimensions (lengthwise and widthwise).

* Hard blank walls can be deadened by heavy curtains, which have the added bonus of improving the décor. Carpets and other soft furnishings will improve the acoustics and will generally be more cost-effective than acoustic ceiling tile.

* Windows: The ideal room has NO windows. Windows always cause problems for television cameras due to the changing light levels. Window Treatments: If windows are unavoidable, heavy curtains or drapes should be applied to improve acoustics.

* Entrances: Entrance at rear of the room is the best option. Access should be suitable for a person with a physical disability.

* Flooring: There should be carpet on the floor. Carpets and other soft furnishings will improve the acoustics and will generally be more cost- effective than acoustic ceiling tile.

* Lighting: Fluorescent lighting is the most realistic choice for these rooms. Normal office lighting levels will be adequate, i.e., 500 Lux, and an intermediate or warm fluorescent tube color (equivalent color temperature 3200-4000 Kelvin). There should not be a buzzing sound projected from the lights in the classroom.

* Install lighting at the front of the room but ensure that it is on a separate switch from the rest of the room lights. As a general practice, it is advised that classroom lighting, even in traditional classrooms, be "zoned" into rows of separately switched lights. These rows should run across the width of the room, not down its length. In this way the front of a room, beside the projection screen, can be darkened to give better contrast to the projected images, but still retain a good level of light over the participant's desks.

* Recommend using high efficiency T-8 lamps and electronic ballast along with the use of occupancy light sensors to prevent energy waste in unoccupied areas and/or buildings, along with copy/work rooms, rest rooms, etc.

* HVAC: The HVAC should be seen - not heard in the classroom.

* Microphones are sensitive to moving air. The microphone amplifies normal air conditioning and can cause a large amount of background noise in a videoconference. Air conditioning/handling equipment will also require installation by experienced staff to ensure the quality of air is adequate and the temperature, humidity, etc. are of an acceptable standard.

* Communication: There should be a dedicated phone line and phone in the videoconference room. It is also recommended that there be a FAX line in the room. It is suggested that you have at least one phone and an additional phone line, or jack, in the room for a FAX line or expansion in the future.

* Computer: Videoconference rooms should have a minimum of four areas to access a computer and the Internet.

* Electrical: Electrical installations need to comply with current National Electrical Code (NEC) wiring regulations and should be carried out by competent and qualified staff. The equipment used for videoconferencing should be powered from a clean main supply to avoid electrical interference. It should not be on a circuit that is shared by large electrical loads such as plant motors, lifts, workshops, etc.

* Wiring: To minimize hum pickup, signal cables (i.e. sound and vision) should not be run parallel to main supply cables; this is especially important for microphone cables. Also, do not run over or parallel to lighting ballasts.

* Several cables should be run from the control desk to the picture monitors and loudspeaker/audio mixer and also to the CODEC, wherever these are situated. Some provision must be made for small ducting or conduit to protect these cables.

* When cable runs across floor spaces cannot be avoided, some form of protection must be provided. Special rubber cable protectors are available that protect the cables and minimize the risk of tripping.

* Room Color: Generally high contrast color is desired. Light Blue or light gray is commonly used. Stay away from dark and vivid colors. One recommendation is Periwinkle Blue, or Slate Gray.

* Furniture: Individual sites will have their own preferences for the type of furniture to be installed. Try to avoid bright, reflective surfaces that may cause unwanted highlights in the picture and distract the viewer from the main subject matter.
