PART 2 - PRODUCT
2.1
Design Basis:
Horizontal sliding blast resistant door systems as shown on drawings shall be Sonicbar
series Model DB-200-SL manufactured by Protective Door Industries, Harvey, IL 60426 at
708/331-2515 or prior approved equal. Door manufacturer shall submit evidence of
having been engaged in the successful design and manufacture of blast resistant door
assemblies for a minimum of 10 years.
2.2
Design Criteria:
Door system shall be designed to resist a positive blast force of up to 3.0 PSI static
equivalent loading at _______ % rebound (if not specified, 100% rebound percentage will
be used) with the positive pressure acting to _______ (seat the door into the wall or
unseat the door against the restraints). Door system shall be undamaged and fully
operable after application of the specified blast load.
Steel material shall conform to the standards of the American Institute of Steel
Construction. All work shall be assembled using all welded construction per the standards
of AWS D1.1 and D1.3. Welds to be of a size and type as required per the blast load
analysis criteria.
Fire rating: Where indicated on the door schedule, manufacturer shall submit certification
that the doors are constructed of noncombustible construction for the degree of protection
specified.
2.3
2.3.1
Fabrication:
Shop Assembly:
Blast doors shall be of fireproof construction, fiberglass insulated, 2 3/4 thk. (4 thk. for
oversize door panels) and fabricated of steel sheet with internal stiffeners for
reinforcement to resist the stresses resulting from the blast loading specified. On
oversized openings and where shipping constraints mandate size, door leaf shall be field
spliced with each door panel prepared for proper set-up and alignment.
Track System:
Sliding door unit shall be top-hung with heavy-duty hardware suitable to door weight and
blast load. Door system shall include a track, track hanger brackets, four-wheel ball
bearing type trolleys, trolley pendant, door stop and stay roller assembly. Track supports
shall be furnished with anchorage bolts and steel shims necessary for proper alignment.
Unseating blast load restraints shall be included.
2.3.3
Hardware:
Manual or electric power operation shall be specified. The electric operation shall consist
of an industrial chain drive operator of type NEMA 1 or NEMA 12 and if specified, can be
modified for NEMA 7/9 explosion proof and/or NEMA 4 weatherproof enclosure. The unit
shall be mounted on an angle iron frame and consist of a 460V AC, 3-phase, single speed
motor of sufficient horsepower with low voltage controls and an emergency disconnect pin
for manual operation in case of power failure. A rotary limit switch shall stop the door in
the full open or closed position. Starter shall be magnetic reversing type and controlled by
either a 3-button pushbutton station, pull cord or remote control device at each side. A
fusible link self-closing device shall be standard on a fire door operator. The leading edge
of the door shall be equipped with a reversing safety edge.
The door panel shall have a recessed pull on the wall side and a surface mounted bow
handle on the exterior side.
2.3.4
Vision Panel:
Openings marked on the door schedule to contain a vision panel shall be equipped with a
blast resistant 10-inch x 10-inch (clear opening) vision lite. The door leaf will have factory
prepared cut-outs and reinforcements. Suitable glass and glazing materials, either wire or
laminated glass shall be included, with the glass composite and thickness determined by
the blast door manufacturer.
2.4
Finish:
All tool marks and imperfections shall be removed and exposed welded joints dressed
smooth. Surfaces shall be cleaned and/or ground smooth for maximum paint adhesion.
Exposed surfaces shall be factory prime painted with the manufacturers standard rust
inhibitive prime paint.
