OWNER’S PROJECT REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT
FOR
LEED® FUNDAMENTAL COMMISSIONING

Project: Spokane Community College South Wing Renovation

Approved:
Name Owner’s Representative Date

Name Design Representative Date

OVERVIEW AND INSTRUCTIONS

The purpose of this document is to provide clear and concise documentation of the Owner’s goals
expectations and requirements for commissioned systems, and shall be utilized throughout the project
delivery and commissioning process to provide an informed baseline and focus for design
development and for validating systems’ energy and environmental performance.

The Owner’s Project Requirements Document is a required document for LEED® Version 3 EA
Prerequisite 1, Fundamental Commissioning of the Building Energy Systems.

Use of this template is not required, nor are there any restrictions on editing of it. It is provided simply
as a tool to assist project teams in meeting the documentation requirements for LEED Fundamental
Commissioning.

The intent of the Owner’s Project Requirements Document, per the LEED v3 Reference Guide, is to
detail the functional requirements of a project and the expectations of the building’s use and operation
as it relates to commissioned systems. This template contains the basic recommended components
indicated in the LEED v3 Reference Guide. It should be adapted as needed to suit the project,
remaining reflective of the LEED intent.

The Owner’s Project Requirements Document should ideally be completed before the start of design
and furnished to the design team. It must be completed prior to the approval of Contractor submittals
of any commissioned equipment or systems to meet LEED requirements.

Updates to the Owner’s Project Requirements Document throughout the course of project delivery
shall be made by the Owner/Design Team based on decisions and agreements coordinated with and
agreed to by the Owner. For this reason some of the discussion points have been left in this
document to encourage discussion among the design and owner’s teams

The Owner’s Project Requirements Document shall be included in the project’s LEED documentation
file under EA PR1, Fundamental Commissioning of the Building Energy Systems.

I. OWNER AND USER REQUIREMENTS

A. Primary Purpose, Program and Use

The primary purpose of this project is to provide additional program space, classrooms and
offices, for the Spokane Community College. There is some thought to possibly provide
some retail space near the bakery area also under this project but this will be budget
dependent. The intended life of this building is 50 years with the expected life of the
equipment being 25 years.

There are no extreme conditions that this building needs to be designed for (temperature
nor usage). The space will not generally be used as a shelter in place space and will be
designed to be evacuated during most emergencies and the building will not need to remain
fully operable without utility power for any length of time. Currently there is a generator that
serves the building for emergency lighting and IT needs and the only consideration will be
to ensure any lighting and IT loads added are within the capacities of the generator and that
they are placed on the emergency circuit as needed. This building is not thought of to be a
target for terrorism and the design team does not need to consider any extreme weather
conditions during the design simply following local code conditions.

The project site is a remodel of an existing building and an addition onto that building, the
addition should be considered as an addition not a stand-alone building. There is no
extreme exposure that needs to be considered nor any known siting issues. There is the
thought that before long the new high-way will be coming through this area and the tops of
the buildings will be very visible to cars passing on this new road. This could present an
opportunity for the campus to do something innovative on the roof and gain some
recognition in the community.

B. Project History

This project includes a remodel of existing space as well as an addition. The existing
building has had many remodels since its original construction. The project process itself
was developed with ALSC Architects and Coffman Engineers but will use a Design-Build
process to allow the contracting team to propose the best solutions to meet the owner’s
needs.

C. Broad Goals

The broad goals for the project are to provide additional and updated space for program
needs within the project budget. There are no needs to consider future expansion nor a
need to consider flexibility of space excessively. The program spaces will be fairly rigid and
although traditional classrooms might be used for different programs there should be no
need to consider a need to change these spaces to a different use in the future. There is
also a need to address building seismic performance. The selected team will be expected
to evaluate and correct likely deficiencies identified by the Integrus report, and incorporate
those strategies with the new addition if and as appropriate. The new building will likely be
structurally isolated from the existing structure unless the selected team validates the
approach on both new and existing structural elements.

The owner would like to see the highest quality materials possible used that meet or beat
the local codes and campus standards but do not drive the project budget excessively.
Project budget is a fairly rigid number that must be adhered to. Any ability to minimize the
operational costs should be realized and proposed but only within reason and so as not to
drive the project budget. The equipment itself should be designed around a roughly 25

year life cycle and must be in accessible locations for staff to maintain it. The owner is
interested in renewable energy sources that might bring awareness to the campus/building
along with providing some relief in energy costs.

In general CCS has a standard practice of using above ground transformers and would like
to see this adhered to as well for this project.

At this time CCS does not feel a need to be overly concerned about being able to remodel
this space or add to it in the future and does not want to see this be a budget driving item.

II. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SUSTAINABILITY GOALS

A. Energy Efficiency Goals

This project has a goal set of LEED Silver rating. The owner is interested in seeing the
sustainability and environmentally friendly construction that LEED brings applied to their
project. Wherever applicable the owner would like to see the use of ECM motors and VFDs
on larger motors. Specific measures to be taken to ensure energy efficiency will be
provided in further detail in the RFP documentation.

B. General

In general the project is to use design conditions that are to be based on the ASHRAE
Handbook (latest editions) and the 2015 Washington State Energy Code. CCS is also very
interested in exploring Renewable Energies (PV) and understanding the total cost of
ownership of these systems.

CCS would like to see the gas metering and the electricity metering tie into their campus
“Pangea” system through the controls network.

C. Siting

CCS is aware of no concerns surrounding the siting of the building and the addition.

D. Building Façade

There is some interest by CCS in weighing the options of a solar wall, they use this
technology in another area on their campus and have felt that it works well.

CCS does not want blinds to be integrated with DDC and very concerned about
maintenance of any external shades (parts availability, etc.) Extra attention should be
devoted to shading to ensure that if used the product is maintenance friendly. There are all
sorts of opportunities for these devices to get damaged with weather conditions. Even if
external mechanical shading devices were used, it would be bad practice to size terminal
equipment for a reduced load with mechanical shading in place.

CCS would like to be sure they have a chance to review any shading, mechanical or
otherwise, proposed during the design phase on this project. Please ensure attention is
drawn to these proposed designs during design meetings so that the owner can ensure
they are comfortable with the proposed solution.

E. Building Fenestration

South Wing Renovation OPR 16 10 27 Updated - 10/27/2016 ©Engineering Economics, Inc.


Page 3
Meet or beat code for fenestration needs; CCS has no needs above code especially if it
drives the cost of the project. The only main concern the campus has with regards to
fenestration is that the window tinting should be considered during design. Also, owner
would prefer non operable windows.

Specific percentages of glazing and U values will be provided in further details in the RFP.

F. Building Envelope

Meet or beat code for envelope needs; the campus has no needs above code especially if it
drives the cost of the project. The campus prefers to use skylights to introduce daylighting
to the building.

G. Roof

Meet or beat code for the building roof; the campus has no needs above code especially if it
drives the cost of the project. The campus does prefer TPO roof systems.

H. Occupant Response to Set Points

Consider the option of using ceiling fans to help circulate air. This could create a cooling
effect using them and can raise the cooling set point as a result; reducing mechanical
cooling energy. Occupants respond better in an environment that is warmer, with
convective heat transfer for cooling, rather than conductive heat transfer for cooling.

III. INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY REQUIREMENTS

A. Intended Use

The intended use for spaces is described in Table 1 at the end of this document.

B. Occupancy Schedule

The space occupancy schedule as well as the basic occupancy level to be planned for is
described in Table 1 at the end of this document.

C. Accommodations for After-Hours Use

CCS would like the occupants to have the ability to use a temporary occupancy override
button in order to use the space outside of the scheduled hours of operation. However,
care should be taken that the entire system isn’t brought online in order to satisfy one space
as well as to ensure that minimum flows are met when a system is brought on in temporary
occupancy. See Table 1

D. Lighting, Temperature, Humidity, Air Quality, Ventilation, Filtration

For each space the lighting, temperature, humidity, air quality, ventilation and filtration
requirements are listed in Table 1 at the end of this document.

The Cosmetology area has some specific lighting needs due to the fact that it’s a classroom
area but also serves as a retail/customer space as well. Most of the requirements for this
space has been laid out specifically below rather than in Table 1. However it should be
noted that some further attention will need to be paid to this to ensure lighting levels are not
adjusting or turning off on clients.

14. Work Room: No daylighting, 40-50FC

15. Storage: No daylighting, 10FC

E. Acoustics

In general the campus has always relied on its architects to provide noise levels that are
acceptable to meet the needs of each space. This information will be further updated by
the A/E team in Table 1 at the end of this document.

F. Occupant Ability to Adjust System Controls

In general the owner does not want the occupant to be able to adjust the temperature set
points. There are some spaces where this may be desired however and this have been
provided in Table 1.

G. Types of Lighting

Fluorescent and metal halide lamps are to be ‘low mercury’ type. CCS is very explicit that
no ‘value miser’ ballasts or Motorola ballasts are allowed.

Acceptable ballast manufacturers include: GE, Advance, Sylvania, Universal and


Magntech. Florescent lamps to be 3500 K in color. Avoid 2’x2’ florescent fixtures.

All lighting, both interior and exterior, to be dimmable LED type. Color temperature to be

V. BUILDING OCCUPANT AND O&M PERSONNEL REQUIREMENTS

A. Facility Operation

The building will be operated predominately by the automated building control system with
very little input from the space occupants. The maintenance staff would like to be contacted
if space temperatures are not correct rather than allowing the users to attempt to try to
correct temperature issues of their own accord. They feel this will help them know how well
their systems are working rather than having occupants possibly disrupt control of the
building systems and/or take matters into their own hands and possibly cause bigger
energy impact issues.

Preventative maintenance will be performed by the maintenance staff on the facilities


systems and equipment.

The occupants are to use a work order system to relay corrective actions to the
maintenance group.

B. EMCS

The facility will be fully connected to the EMCS and needs to be 100% Lon Certified
Controls (CSN is the preferred provider). Currently the existing system is Universal Network
control and Enterprise control systems. The new system shall be 100% Echelon, Niagara
certified.

C. Occupant Training and Orientation

There will be minor training needed to be done for the occupants since the building will be
operated mostly by the maintenance staff. Any zone level operation that is desired should
be very intuitive. The majority of the training should consist of the users knowing the
operating conditions of the systems and to call maintenance if they feel the system is
running outside of those conditions. The users will also need to be trained on the operation
of the lighting on the spaces but this should be designed to be intuitive so that different staff
can easily cycle through the spaces.

D. Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Staff Training and Orientation

The owner’s maintenance staff shall be trained to operate and maintain all equipment
installed in the facility. Users shall be trained to operate all controls in their spaces to
control temperature and lighting. Equipment training should be videotaped. Training videos
should be provided for major pieces of equipment. These videos should be produced by a
professional videographer. Depending on the version of controls software used on the
project the owner may require specific training on this software.
