Powder coated. 2 goals, 2 nets, anchors and hooks or equal (The above items must also conform to the specifications stated below.) Direct Connection - All components must be fastened to the uprights using bolts and a threaded insert. These inserts must be installed into factory drilled holes in the tubing of the play structure. No clamp connectors. Once this equipment is installed it will be left to the host nation for any care or maintenance. By using a direct connect system we are reducing the possibility of errors in maintenance by host nation personnel due to the simplicity of maintenance. Because this is a US DOD Mil install it is important that we use equipment that is safe, and above all will last years without regular maintenance. Additionally all the equipment is predrilled and powder coated at the plant so assembly is free of any clamps with protruding bolts or bare surfaces that will rust. . Due to the pre-drilled no clamp assembly the protective powder coat will last decades even in the most severe environment. Structure Coating - Parts must be coated using a method resistant to a highly humid, salt water environment. Components must be rust-proof with a warranty of at least 25 years. No PVC coatings on any surfaces. Because this is a US DOD Mil install it is important that we use equipment that is environmentally friendly thus no PVC coating due to the fact that if they are vandalized and burned the units will not leave toxins and contamination as PVC's would. Integrated Shade - Shade unit must feature at least a 18' x 18' breathable UV resistant shade fabric that provides 90% or more UV protection based on American Academy of Dermatology recommendations. The unit must be attached to playground equipment as to not violate the safety zone. Due to the extremely limited space at some of the sites we need to integrate the shade structure into the equipment footprint. Safety is achieved by freeing up as much play space as possible as well as ensuring nothing is in the Safe Zone of either structure. One way they do this is by attaching their canopy systems to the existing playground poles eliminating additional pole obstacles in the play area. Safety - Must meet safety requirements outlined in ASTM F1487-07ae1, Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification for Playground Equipments for Public Use, dated 15 March 2007. Self explanatory Packaging - Equipment must be palletized, per equipment unit, on pallets no wider then 4' and no longer than 20' for shipping in SEAVAN. Package the playground in complete color coded sets on custom made their pallets to be used side by side in SEAVANS for the long overseas cargo movement decreases shipping cost and allows for coordinating our delivery to specific sites, decreasing our build time not having to break down and identify all the parts for the different site, and ensure the safe arrival of all equipment.
