2021 International MV/PL Custom Titan 170 <br />Type I Ambulance Proposal Specification <br /> <br /> <br />A5347-0002 11/05/20 <br />4 <br /> <br />Additional welding shall be done at the lower rub rail area where the body exterior panels meet the lower structural <br />support members. This welding is done to completely bond the exterior panel to the substructure in an area where weld <br />dimples will not show on the finished vehicle. <br /> <br />ROOF SHEET: <br /> <br />The roof sheet shall be a one piece sheet of .125" 5052-H34 aluminum. There shall be no seams in the roof panel or any <br />overlapping seam s. The roof sheet shall be fully welded to the roof sub frame from the inside. The outside perimeter of <br />the roof sheet where it meets the upper cove shall be 100% welded prior to painting. This 100% welding eliminates the <br />need for caulks or sealers and the possibilities of water leaks into the body. <br /> <br />CORNER AND ROOF CORNER EXTRUSIONS: <br /> <br />The exterior body corners and coves shall be an extruded aluminum section made of 6061 -T6 aluminum. Both the <br />corners and roof corner extrusions shall have a 1 5/8" radius hollow extrusion design with an inside flat mating surface. <br />The exterior surface shall be designed to form a smooth transition at all corners of the body. The corners shall be <br />designed in such a way as to provide an interlocking surface with the "Ma in Beam" extrusion. This surface contact shall <br />provide a weld surface to attach the corners to the main beam. The process of attachment shall include threaded <br />mechanical fasteners to pull the two surfaces tight prior to the welding. This provides a completely tight interface surface. <br />To enhance the corner waterproof integrity a recessed sealant groove shall be incorporated into the exterior flanged <br />surface which is in contact with the body and roof exterior panels. This groove allows the surfaces to be sealed to prevent <br />water infiltration and pre-vent corrosion. The corners shall be designed so they are NOT a structural component of the <br />body, but means to provide a smooth exterior transition and water tight surface. NO EXCEPTIONS. Designs which <br />include an integral exterior corner surface/structural member are unacceptable. <br /> <br />CORNER CASTINGS: <br /> <br />The upper four corners of the module shall have a cast aluminum ball corner that matches the radius of the corner <br />extrusions. This ball corner shall be completely 100% welded in place to pre-vent water leaks and finished to have a <br />smooth transition at the corner. <br /> <br />EQUIPMENT MOUNTING LOCATIONS & <br />REINFORCEMENTS: <br /> <br />Areas within the body that have equipment mounted or items bolted shall have additional structura l-al members welded in <br />place. The areas are as follows: <br /> <br />1. A .250" thick 1.25" by 2.5" structural angle to mount squad bench and seat belt restraints shall be installed on the side <br />interior walls, including left side attendant seat. The entire assembly shall be tested and certified to F.M.V.S.S 210. <br />Documentation shall be provided upon request. <br /> <br />2. Cot mounts shall be mounted/bolted to structural members welded within the floor structure. Cot mounts shall be tested <br />and meet A.M.D. Standard A.M.D-004. Documentation shall be provided upon request. <br /> <br />3. Rear facing attendant seat pedestal shall be mounted to a reinforced structural channel members between the frame <br />members of the floor structure. The entire assembly shall be tested to and certified to F.M.V.S.S. 210. Documentation <br />shall be provided upon request. <br /> <br />4. The oxygen bottle retention bracket shall be bolted to a reinforcing structure within the storage compartment. Under No <br />Circumstances shall an oxygen bottle be secured to interior cabinets only, they must always be bolted to a structural <br />member of the module body. The entire assembly shall be tested to A.M.D-003.
