American Response Vehicles <br />8 <br /> <br />TIRE VALVE EXTENDERS: One pair of tire valve extenders will supplied and installed for each inside rear <br />wheel. The tire valve extenders will permit the user to check tire pressure and fill the inside rear tires <br />without removing the outer tire. The extenders will have a braided stainless steel outer jacket to resist <br />abrasions and cuts. The filler end will be supported by a valve bracket. <br /> <br />MODULE CONSTRUCTION - GENERAL <br />SERVICE INTENT: The ambulance body will be all aluminum. The body sheet will be reinforced with <br />structural members designed to resist deflection and hold up to extreme ambulance service per the <br />latest revision of federal specification KKK-A-1822F. <br /> <br />BODY MEMBER ALLOY: The side, front and rear sheet will be derived from .125”, 5052-H32 <br />aluminum sheet. The roof sheet will be one (1) piece, .090”, from roof rail to roof rail. The side <br />structure and structural shapes will be extruded of 6105-T6 aluminum. <br /> <br />STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY: The body will be capable of providing impact, deformation, and penetration <br />resistance in the event of a collision. The body structure will be capable of passing a standalone static <br />load test on a type-tested body. The test will be conducted in accordance with AMD-001 except the <br />test weight will be a minimum of 75,000 pounds. The same unit will be subjected to the same test <br />with the body turned on its side. A complete copy of the testing documents with photos must be <br />supplied upon bid review if requested by this agency. Non-compliant bids will be rejected. <br /> <br />WELD QUALITY: All welds within the modular body will meet American Welding Society codes for structural <br />and sheet welding. <br /> <br />CREVICE PREPARATION: All skin and extrusion surfaces destine to be mated together, will be primed <br />with epoxy, etching primer prior to assembly. All over lapping extrusion to skin surfaces will be <br />bedded with a two-part acrylic high strength bonding adhesive. <br /> <br />SIDE STRUCTURAL MEMBERS: The sheet edges will be fit into slots designed within a proprietary, <br />double hollow, corner post extrusion in addition to the two-part acrylic bonding agent. The sheet will <br />be MIG welded and structurally bonded to the extrusion. Double-hollow designed corner post <br />extrusions will be used to weld side and end assemblies together. Horizontally oriented, adjoining <br />structural box tubes will be welded to the corner post with a minimum 50% surface weld. The <br />intermediate structural members of the side grid will be two by two inch 6105-T6 aluminum, <br />architectural box tubing. All entry and compartment door adjacent members will be one quarter inch, <br />two by two-inch proprietary extruded shape. The main structure will surround the compartment <br />openings and provide intermediate skin support. The intermediate structure spacing will have a <br />nominal dimension of twelve inches. All grid structure will be welded together with a minimum of 75% <br />of available mating surface. The side skin will be bonded to the structural grid using 1.75 inch-wide, <br />VHB (Very High Bond) adhesive tape. The edges of the tube that touch the skin will be sealed with
