The vertical corner posts and the roof corner extrusion shall be mated by a cast aluminum corner cap welded<br />
to all three extrusions inside and out. Construction which merely welds the extrusions together is<br />
unacceptable.<br />
Does your bid comply?<br />
Yes __X__ No_____<br />
Roof<br />
The roof skin shall consist of a single sheet of .090”– 5052-H32 alloy rated aluminum. Roof framing shall be 4”<br />
x 4” tubing with a wall thickness of .125” and an alloy rating of 6061-T6. These beams shall be formed with an<br />
arch to give the roof a minimum of ¾” crown at the center, to prevent pooling of snow/ice/water. They shall<br />
also be engineered and designed with openings for the center wiring harness and, if equipped, for ducting for<br />
overhead HVAC system. These structural tubing members shall be set on 16 inch centers. The roof sheeting<br />
shall not be required as integral part of the roof structure; however, the roof skin shall be welded to the outer<br />
extrusions using a full perimeter, continuous weld on all four sides. The roof structure itself shall be designed<br />
to enhance the safety and structural integrity of the modular body and to meet or exceed the load<br />
requirements of AMD Standard No. 001. A flat roof will not be considered.<br />
Does your bid comply?<br />
Yes __X__ No_____<br />
Horizontal Roof Edge<br />
The extruded roof edge structural members will measure 6" x 4.75" with a 2" radius, a minimum wall thickness<br />
of .125" and an alloy rating of 5052-H32. The roof extrusions will include an integral, full-length drip rail for<br />
each side and from side to side on both the front and rear of the module. Drip rails which are attached to the<br />
roof edge perimeter may not be attached using screws, adhesives, or rivets.<br />
Does your bid comply?<br />
Yes __X__ No_____<br />
Static Load Test<br />
The ambulance body as a unit shall be designed and built to provide impact resistance. The body shall be of<br />
sufficient strength to support a minimum of( 2.5) times the weight of the "fully" loaded vehicle on its top and<br />
side, without crushing, separation of joint or excessive deformation of roof bows, reinforcements, body parts,<br />
doors, floor members, inner linings, outer panels, rub rails or any other structure in accordance with AMD<br />
Standard No. 001.<br />
