6.26 Exception – No window is available UNLESS the City would consider switching CS bench to CS safety seat as the structural needs in the CS wall need crash rails to mount seat belts to. If the window was present, the crash rails would run straight thru the window. This is acceptable ONLY if a CS safety seat is built 6.27 Exception – No whiteboard, see note on 6.26 above. 7.1 Exception - MATERIALS: Unless specified otherwise, all exterior compartment walls and backs will be constructed of .100 polished aluminum diamond plate. All compartment floors will be formed of .125 aluminum sheet. Compartments for generators, oxygen, and backboards will have .250 compartment floors. All compartment ceilings will be formed of .090 aluminum sheet. The ceilings and floors will form around the sides and back to provide an overlapping joint. The floor and ceiling surfaces will be double action (DA) sanded to 180 grit. The floors and ceilings are bonded to the walls and back and intermittent welded on six (6) inch centers. DRAIN HOLES: Drain holes will be provided on the bottom of the compartments. Each hole will be baffled to prevent splash water from entering the compartment. COMPARTMENT FLOOR CONFIGURATION: This compartment floor will be a sweep out type floor. The compartment floor will be flush with the lower door jamb to facilitate compartment floor cleaning. The edge of the compartment floor will be continuously welded to the lower door jamb. Heat generated from welding will not distort the straightness or flatness of the jamb or compartment floor. The weld quality must be aesthetically uniform. COMPARTMENT FLOOR THICNESS: The compartment floor will be .125 inch thick aluminum of single layer. VENTILATION: There will be a hole in the compartment below floor line approximately 5-3/8"wide x 2- 9/32"tall that will accept a specially designed baffled vent. The baffles will have a stainless steel spring that allow for only one way operation. They allow air to escape out of the compartment when the door is closed, but not for air to come back into the compartment to keep dirt and dust out of the compartment interior. Engineering will determine the amount of these vents required by the volume of space in the compartment. 7.2 Exception – Tri-Mark 1875 handle used instead 7.3 Exception – Custom AEV STAMPED Louvres used instead of aftermarket vents to help cut down on possible corrosion areas and electrolosis 7.13.1 Exception – M1A compartment above O2 compartment to completely seal off any electrical from O2, and give more room in M2 compartment 7.13.2 Exception – FW-559 hooks used instead as they are heavier and more durable 7.18 Exception – White reflective tape & standard LED POB lights on each compartment exterior and interior door 7.19 Exception – 18” grab rail
