Under the direction of Indian River Department of Emergency Management, the classroom areas were evaluated as a possible hurricane evacuation shelter. Flood and Ha7rnat Considerations: A site plan showing existing elevations was not available but the campus is located in a Zane 'X' area according to Flood Insurance Rate Map, panel 168 of 169, Mal) No.12061C0168 E, with an effective date of May 4, 1989. Evidence of flooding or ponding was not apparent. The 14ES building is within the Vulnerability Zone of two Section 302 facilities that have a low release potential in a hurricane event. information was provided by local emergency management that the chemicals ammonia, chlorine, hydroflouric acid and sulfuric acid were present in these facilities. The campas is not located within a ten mile Emergency Planning Zone of a nuclear facility. • 4D • Wind and "Mind -Related Considerations: Wind hazard types taken into consideration during site inspection include lay -down hazards, roll-over hazards and debris hazards. Hazards in the form of light poles and tall trees were noted on the east side of the buildings designated for use as an HES. Northern, Southern, Eastern and Western areas are comprised of heavily wooded fiat topography offering limited exposure. Noted on the northern portion of the campus was unsecured playground equipment and the western portion 2 unsecured mobile homes, unsecured playground equipment, and 6 unsecured portable classrooms. There is limited exposure to large and small wind-borne debris within 300 feet of the facility. The wind parameters used in the design was based on ANSI A58.1. Building Characteristics: A partial set of structural and architectural plans for this facility was provided for evaluation. A clearly defined continuous load path from foundation to roof is present. Upon site inspection and review of structural plans it was evident that the buildings' exterior walls are constructed of fully reinforced cantilevered masonry and have no softspot areas. The plans called for an 8" CKU with a 4" brick veneer wall construction. 5" pipe columns (standard weight) were employed extending from the concrete, steel reinforced footers to top of walls. 36" steel truss girders (48" cic) are attached to bearing points with two 114" full development fillet welds. Tlie roof is flat with a 3' overhang and decked with standard corrugated metal decking, 4" lightweight concrete, and a modified bitumen roof covering. Roof design load is calculated to be 60 lbs, per square foot with a net uplift load of 28 lbs per square foot. Mechanical equipment was noted on the roof in the fomi of air handlers and large vents which were not securely fastened. No evidence of ponding or degradation was present on the roof. All drains were clear and free of debris. Windows, of an unknown glass type, comprised 12% of total exterior wall space. No slsutteringfprotective system was in place for either windows or exterior doors. The stringency ranking of the model building code used for design and construction according to the State of Florida Hurricane Shelter Evaluation Guidelines is a 4 on a scale of 0.4, the most stringent being 4. The building was in good condition with no visible signs of damage Life Safety/Emergency Power: At the time of survey, clic building conformed to fire codes. There was an emergency power supply generator on site which powers safety lights, fire alarms, kitchen equipment, exit lights, freezers and emergency lighting. Conclusions: When analyzed using the criteria outlined in (lie ARC 4496 !,east -Risk Decision Making Guideline 40 40 i Compliance Summary, Highlands Elementary School was fousid to have characteristics which 'fall under the categories of preferred, marginal and non-compliant. Preferred characteristics of this facility include: • The building and its access road are located outside the Category 5 storm surge innundaton, • The building and its access road are located outside the 500 -year floodplain (Zone X). • The building is in good condition with no apparent signs of deterioration. The buildings` exterior walls are constructed of fully reinforced masonry. • No evidence of degradation is present on roof. • An Emergency Standby Power Generator exists on site. Marginal characteristics of this facility include: There is limited exposure to large and small wind-borne debris. • The building has a flat, lightweight roof system. • The building is within the Vulnerability Zone of two Section 302 facilities. • Minimal hazards within lay -down range of building. Non-compliant characteristic of this facility include; • The building has unprotected windows and doors that lead into shelter areas. Retrofit Recommendation: Malar Install shutters or other protective systems on unprotected systems windows to exterior doors to meet the SBC Standard SSTD 12-94 of Dade County version of the South Florida Building Code (Section 2314.1, 2314.5 and 1-2314.4). Mip_or (Please note that while these minor retrofit reconunendations will enhance the integrity of shelter space evaluated they will not increase potential usable shelter square footage.) • Remove potential lay -down harards. • Remove potential debris hazards. • Secure mechanical equipment on the roof. • Secure portable classrooms and mobile homes on the site. 40 40 4D ..��.. 41 USABLE, ) \Xr VA�\:/�grTrq� (!*��:;dr\ .�\` Qae Q»B @!u n 1$413 12,783 12,72 / n n 12,783 IL qof I® In . ---1 7SJ + I 4 CA 40 4 Access ID U 207 Least -Ride Decision Making: ARC 4496 Guideline Compliance.
