1. VISION

1.01 TECHNOLOGY AND LOW VOLTAGE SYSTEMS

A. The St. Vrain Valley School District intends to provide a state‐of‐the‐art infrastructure that advances information and educational technology in support of the District's Mission Statement. We provide a platform for enhanced educational opportunities by investing in systems that are nimble, reliable, and flexible. We envision an environment that enables learning to occur at any time, from any place, and at any pace.

1.02 APPLICATION

A. The standards and “best practice” approaches described in this document are based on the principle that Technology and Low Voltage Systems are similar to electrical power—a fundamental resource that should be readily available and easy to use, ubiquitous yet unobtrusive. Technology and Low Voltage Systems are a utility, a tool—not an end unto themselves. With this in mind, Technology and Low Voltage Systems for District facilities should advance the pedagogical goals of the District, should be easy to use and maintain, should be standards‐based, and should be applied consistently across all schools district‐wide.



2. INTRODUCTION

2.01 GENERAL

A. This document serves as a technical specification guideline for the design of Technology and Low Voltage Systems for District facilities. The design of new facilities, additions to existing facilities, and renovations will conform to these guidelines unless exceptions are granted by the District.

B. This specification shall also be used as a guideline for District‐provided maintenance and repair.

C. Additional design and submittal requirements may apply for projects with unusual or highly technical content.

D. Since the industry standards, usage and concepts of technology systems advance at a rapid pace, these specifications and guidelines shall be revisited and updated on a regular basis by St. Vrain Valley School District.

2.02 RELATED DOCUMENTS

A. This document should be used in conjunction with the following related District documents:

1. High School Educational Specifications, November 14, 2008

2. Middle School Educational Specifications, November 14, 2008

3. Elementary School Educational Specifications, November 14, 2008

4. St. Vrain Valley School District Technical Guide for Design Consultants, July 29, 2009

B. Reference Section 4 of this document for applicable Codes and Standards.

2.03 DESIGN GUIDELINES

A. Coordination

1. The Designer of Record will coordinate with the other design team members to ensure that all aspects of the school facility are effective, compatible, and advance the District’s vision for technology and low voltage systems. Architectural, electrical, and mechanical design considerations, as they relate to technology and low voltage systems, are detailed herein; it is the Designer of Record’s responsibility to coordinate these considerations with the architect, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer and other members of the design team as necessary.

B. Systems Selection

1. The type and complexity of technology and low voltage systems, and/or whether a particular system is necessary, will depend upon the type of school, its size, and its location. There may also be special cases that justify the need for a particular system or systems.



2. All design features must be weighed carefully for their initial cost, long‐term maintenance cost and needs, durability, and impact on the environment.

3. Ease of use and maintenance of systems is critical. The specification of systems that require extensive training to use or require highly skilled personnel to maintain should be avoided to the extent possible. The systems ultimately selected for a school should be those that provide for optimal ease of use and maintenance while satisfying the stated performance criteria. In some cases, this may mean providing systems that are initially more costly, but that will have markedly lower maintenance costs or are substantially easier to use.

C. Designer Qualifications

1. It is recommended that the Designer of Record for technology and low voltage systems be a consulting and/or engineering firm with one or more of the following credentials held by individuals on staff. These individuals shall be responsible for the specific design aspects of the project.

i. RCDD (Registered Communications Distribution Designer), a certification from BICSI (Building Industry Consulting Services International), exhibiting proficiency in understanding and design of voice/data transport systems.

ii. CTS (Certified Technology Specialist), a certification from InfoComm International, exhibiting proficiency in understanding and design of audiovisual systems.

D. Documents

1. It is recommended that low voltage systems be specified under their own Division within the project specifications, and that they be shown on a T series of drawings. Electrical infrastructure, such as conduits, boxes, et cetera, shall be either shown on the T series of drawings, or coordinated with the Electrical Engineer on the project.

2.04 CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES

A. Sub‐contractor to the General Contractor

1. It is recommended that low‐voltage systems be constructed by a contractor(s) directly subcontracted to the general contractor; however, may be subcontracted to the electrical subcontractor.

2.05 DEVIATION FROM THIS STANDARD

A. Request for Deviation

1. Requests for deviation from this standard must be in writing. Indicate the standard (paragraph number and item/issue) that is under consideration, the reason for the request, the proposed deviation, and the expected budgetary impact.

B. Written Approval

1. Deviations from this standard must be approved in writing by both the Chief Information Officer and the Director of Construction Management.



3. CODES AND STANDARDS

3.01 GENERAL

A. All applicable codes, industry standards, and District standards will be followed.

1. Where conflicts exist between codes and standards, code will govern. However, if the non‐code requirement of the standard (or portion thereof) exceeds that of the code, and is furthermore not contrary to the code, the non‐code requirement (or portion thereof) will prevail.

2. Where conflicts exist between industry standards and District Standards, in general the District Standards will prevail. However, the Designer of Record will document and reconcile the conflicting standards with the District prior to the completion of design.

B. Standards‐based systems will enable District schools to make use of consistent training and operations and maintenance (O&M) information across all facilities, and in turn enable personnel moving between schools to immediately use and/or maintain the systems with little or no additional training. Technical knowledge will be consistent and thus more readily available, allowing staff to share knowledge between facilities and to provide each other with assistance when necessary.

3.02 APPLICABLE CODES AND STANDARDS

A. Standards for low voltage systems will primarily consist of the Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronics Industries Alliance (TIA/EIA) telecommunications standards and the applicable standards published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Guidelines based upon these standards will also be used, the most notable of which are the materials published by BICSI.

B. The technology and low voltage system designs will comply with the pertinent sections of the following:

FUTURE EQUIPMENTPATCHPANELS

2. Ladder rack

i. Ladder rack will be placed along each wall and affixed above and parallel to the racks in all Telecom Rooms. The color of the ladder rack will be factory‐painted black.



ii. Radius dropout accessories shall be provided at horizontal ladder racks where cabling traverses vertically, i.e. dropping into rack vertical managers, or onto vertical ladder racks for wall‐mounted equipment.

3. Wall board

i. In all Telecommunications Rooms the walls will be covered with 8ft high backboards (3/4 inch thick, AC‐grade, fire rated). Terminal boards shall have fire‐rated stamp visible, and not be painted.

C. Architectural Considerations

1. TRs should be located in building “core” areas, and in areas more central to the space being served. TRs should not be co‐located within or otherwise share space with mechanical, electrical or custodial spaces. Ceiling spaces in TRs should be left open and false/suspended ceilings are neither required nor desirable. Doors should swing out of the room in order to maximize the use of the room. Fire protection, where required, is recommended to be FM‐200 canister‐type chemical agent, or similar. If a wet pipe system, wire cages should be installed around sprinkler heads to prevent accidental operation. TRs should also be located so as to eliminate any threat of flooding (i.e. not located adjacent to restrooms). TRs should not be located on an exterior wall if possible.

2. Each TR should serve a radius of approximately 150 feet and approximately 25,000 square feet if the TR is centrally located. It is possible that additional TRs may be required due to the distance between outlets and the TR on a given floor. For multi‐floor facilities, TRs should be stacked – this eliminates the costly and difficult need to coordinate backbone raceway between non‐stacked TRs, decreases the cost of cabling between TRs, provides better backbone cabling security, and eases future maintenance burden on the Owner.

3. Sizing

i. Primary TR: The minimum size for a Primary TR (without co‐located EF) is 9 feet by 12 feet, with walls to structure. However, 10 feet by 14 feet (minimum) is recommened. In addition, a larger space may be required for Primary TRs that are also serving as a Server Room or if there are significant Service Provider requirements to be accommodated for in the space.

ii. Secondary TR: The minimum size for a Secondary TR is 9 feet by 10 feet, with walls to structure. However, 10 feet by 12 feet is recommended.

D. Electrical Considerations

1. Building

i. If a building generator and/or building UPS will be provided for the facility, circuits requiring backup power shall be coordinated between the Low‐Voltage Consultant, the District and the Electrical Engineer.

2. Telecommunications Rooms

i. The Designer of Record should work with the Owner to determine the projected and future expansion loads for a given TR, and provide that information to the



Electrical Engineer for load sizing. The electrical sizing for the TR will be based upon that load.

1) One or more rack mounted Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPS) will be provided by the District for each TR. These UPSes may require special receptacles. The Designer of Record is to provide this receptacle information to the Electrical Engineer.

2) UPSes providing greater than 750 volt‐amps capacity are typically required to have remote emergency power off (RE: NEC Article 645). These requirements shall be coordinated with the Electrical Engineer.

ii. At a minimum, a TR should be provided with convenience receptacles on each wall, and two (2) 20‐amp dedicated twist‐lock (NEMA L5‐20R) receptacles for each equipment rack mounted on unistrut above the racks (i.e. a TR with two racks would have four (4) 20‐amp dedicated receptacles for the racks). In addition, the Primary TR should have one (1) dedicated 30‐amp twist‐lock (NEMA L6‐30R) receptacle over each four‐post rack.

iii. Provisions will be made for additional circuits and receptacles as necessary for equipment to be mounted on the walls and/or for other to be located within the room. Such equipment could consist of fire alarm, access control equipment, AV equipment, etc.

iv. Wall electrical receptacles will be flush mounted with the backboard (surface mounted electrical receptacles interfere with the mounting of horizontal ladder racking and restrict the surface area available for wall mounting communications equipment.

v. One or more rack mounted UPSes will be provided and installed by the District.

vi. Circuits served from emergency/backup sources shall use red receptacles.

E. Environmental Considerations

1. General

i. The Designer of Record should work with the Owner to determine the projected and future heat loads for a given TR, and provide that information to the Mechanical Engineer for heat load sizing. The cooling requirements for the TR will be based upon that load plus 50% spare/future capacity.

ii. Positive air pressure will be required. Temperature should be maintainable at a maximum of 75°F.

iii. Direct humidification is not required.

iv. Dedicated environmental controls will be required in all TRs that house equipment with significant thermal load potential, such as core switches, Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches, computers, servers, and/or other equipment with significant power loads and/or heat output. Rooms can share systems with the core building environmental control system, but the room must be able to maintain its controlled environment 24/7.



v. In rooms that do not require the use of dedicated environmental control systems the room will require active ventilation with a dedicated thermostat at a minimum.

F. Lighting Considerations

1. Lighting in a Telecommunications Room should be a minimum of 500 lux (50 foot candles) on the vertical surface at the lowest point of termination.

2. Lighting fixtures should be installed in front of, behind and parallel to the racks. Lighting fixtures should not interfere with cable pathways. Light fixtures shall be installed with minimum clearances to telecommunications cabling systems considered.

G. Telecommunications Rooms for Modular Buildings, Field House, Press Box, and Concession Stands.

1. TRs for modular buildings or field houses do not need to satisfy the above requirements. However, space is to be provided within each building to house an IT cabinet (or small closet). The cabinet may be wall mounted (or a wall‐mounted rack may be used in a small closet) and sized to accommodate all IT connections within the building, as well as the electronic equipment (primarily switches and a rack‐mountable UPS) necessary to serve the connections. The IT cabinet/rack should be configured similar to that of the equipment racks in the TR’s described above (albeit on a smaller scale) and should also be secured with a locking device.
