10 -- MODULAR BALLISTIC COMBAT HOUSE SOL N00140-95-R-3572, SYN 444 POC Contact Point, L. DEBENEDICTIS, (215)697-9633, Contracting Officer, J.J. SWIZEWSKI, (215)697-9633 The Fleet and Industrial Supply Center (FISC) Norfolk Det Philadelphia intends to procure one modular ballistic combat house for the Naval Special Warfare Group Two (NAVSPECWARGRU2), located at Norfolk, VA. The Government intends to solicit on a full and open competitive basis. The modular ballistic combat house shall, as a minimum, consist of a series of modular, vertical panels connected at the edges so as to form a continuous wall. Panels shall be 48'' wide by 96'' tall. A variety of styles of joint strips shall be available to from joints in a straight line, around a corner, in a ''T'' shape, or to terminate a wall end. Panels shall interconnect one to another in a modular fashion so that they may be taken apart again, replaced, or moved as necessary. In no case shall interconnections require welding, punching, drilling, or other fabrication of the panels. All joints shall provide overlapping surfaces so there is no potential for small cracks where bullets or bullet fragments might escape. All joints shall be capable of containing high power rifle rounds such as .223 and .308 caliber. Joints shall be used to interconnect panels which cover a 48''x96'' standard area. However, custom panels shall be available for other sized areas as necessary. Panels shall be available in a variety of different grades for containment of a variety of rounds. Pistol grade containment panels shall be 10ga. A36 steel plate which can contain occasional standard pistol rounds (9mm, 10mm, .38, .40, .45, etc) with moderate deformation. Pistol grade trap panels shall be 1/4'' armor plate with a Brinell rating of at least 400 and shall deflect all pistol rounds without deformation and shall deflect high power rifle rounds (.223, .308, etc.) when fired at an angle exceeding 45 degrees. Rifle grade containment panels shall contain high power rifle rounds (.223, .308, etc.) at perpendicular angels. High power rounds will be deflected without deformation if fired at angles over 45 degrees or at distances greater than 100 yards. Panel interconnection system shall provide a wood facade system which includes a 2x4 nailer strip at each baffle joint which is through-bolted to the joint strip at least every 24''. Also included shall be a '' plywood panel which covers the 32 square foot baffle area and connects along the edges to the 2x4 nailer strip. Rounds fired into the baffles shall not reflect splatter back toward the shooter. All lead fragments shall either be contained by the baffle or shall be expelled at the base of the panel. The systemmust allow for efficient changes to the floor plan. Modular panels shall be interconnected such that they may be removed at any standard 48''x96'' location and replaced by a sectional doorway module. Doorway module shall provide for connection of a standard construction grade prehung steel or wooden door without need for special fabrication, punching, welding, etc. Doors installed in this manner shall be totally functional as a door or doorway might be in a standard block, brick, or steel building such that explosive entry training may be conducted at the door. The modular combat house must support realistic floor plans for training in specific scenarios, including ship mock-ups, simulated hotel rooms or industrial building configurations. The shoot house system must allow for efficient reconfiguration by the training staff to support specific mission rehearsals. The requested combat house must have a protective roof structure and must be equipped with an observation cat-walk. The roof and cat-walk are required to meet the same ballistic safety specs as the walls of the shoot house. The cat-walk must provide Department of Navy instructors overhead observation of training. The ballistic house must have the capability to be disassembled, moved to a new location and reassembled without construction delays at the new site. The lap joints used in the shoot house must provide this capability without any loss of ballistic integrity. The panels must be held together with a pinching force that is ballistically sound and does not weaken the panels with bolt holes or welded joints. This specification allows true portability without sacrificing ballistic safety. The system must have a proven record of safety for training with duty ammunition and meet the safety standards of the Navy. Delivery is required to NAVSPECWARGRU2 within 30 days of contract date. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered equally by FISC Norfolk Det Philadelphia, code 0343C. Any responses to this synopsis should be sent to the attention of Code 0343C, by letter or fax (215)697-9739 and reference solicitation N00140-95-R-3572. (0192)
