Historical Building Maintenance 1 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  SMITH CHARITIES                          MAY 2018  Page 1 of 4   1  EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  The Smith Charities Building at 51 Main Street Northampton was reviewed by a team of  consultants from December 2017 to March 2018.  Mechanical, structural and  architectural systems of the building were assessed.  The scope of services provides   development of CAD drawings based on the existing conditions of the building,  development of proposals for maintenance or replacement of deteriorating systems and  critical building components, development of cost estimates and a prioritized list of items  to be addressed as the capacity of the organization allows.  Smith Charities also expressed  a desire to have the architect study the changes that would be required to enable use of  the second floor by a potential renter with the hope that active use of the second floor  might generate income to support other building maintenance goals.   The following products have been developed in an effort to complete this scope of work:   Laser scan and linked referential photographic scan of the building with Leica 3D scanner  (shared with L. Szych, T. Fontier and D. Murphy 4/9/2018)   Development of digital 3D Revit Model (digitally)   Development of CAD Elevations and Floor Plans (digital and hard copy)   Report on Existing Structural Conditions and Treatment Recommendations (digital and  hard copy)   Report on Existing Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing and HVAC Conditions and  Recommendations (digital and hard copy)   Building Code Analysis (digital and hard copy)   Architectural Report (digital and hard copy)   Conceptual Plans for Architectural Improvements  (digital and hard copy)   Cost Estimates  (digital and hard copy)  Summary Recommendations  Given the historic significance of the building and support of the Massachusetts Historic  Commission in protecting it, the first order of business should address the “Priority 1”  items on the structural treatment plan.  These items have health and safety ramifications  and not addressing them will hasten the degeneration of the building as a whole. These  items include installation of collar ties between the rafters to restrain the spreading of  the roof;  replacement of missing and failed keystones that leave the exterior wall cavity  vulnerable to water damage, and the removal of loose, shaling sections of the cornice  that pose a hazard to pedestrians as falling debris.  These combined structural repairs are  estimated to cost $158,437 and should be considered emergency level repairs.    Less urgent are a lengthy list of masonry and structural repairs needed to remediate the  consequences of aging.  These should be tackled over the next five years, ideally, and may  total over $800,000.  While it is costly to address them all at once, the possibility of doing  1 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  SMITH CHARITIES                          MAY 2018  Page 2 of 4   so will reduce the overall cost.  These recommendations address critical parts of the  masonry system that affect the value of the building and its long term condition.     The third tier of structural priorities are more cosmetic in nature and relate to edge  spalling and deteriorating decorative carvings.  They are less critical to address within this  time period. They total $515 and could be incorporated into the second tier priorities.    Though architectural improvements are not as critical, there is merit to addressing the  recommended architectural improvements in order to help the Charities develop revenue  towards other goals.  In general we find the architecture of the first floor to be in  excellent shape.  While it would be interesting to explore restoration to the original  period design of the reception area, this is not critical to the building or Charities  operation and mission.  Given the limitations of the International Existing Building Code  and Massachusetts Amendments, it is our recommendation that you maintain the first  floor occupied areas as they are now until that time at which the arrangement of offices  or condition of the restroom and first floor finishes fail to meet your current operational  needs.      A new means of egress and secure entry for a second floor tenant can be provided at the  rear of the building to the second floor to make the second floor useful to a tenant.  We  advise a saw cut through the rear exterior wall at the current landing to the basement.   The new entry can be tied in to the exterior window system if done simply with a small  exterior railing and stair system. We recommend a metal stair system, suspended canopy  and insulated panel door.  Existing plaster and damaged woodwork need repair, and new  mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems also need to be provided to make the  second floor usable.         It will be important to keep new finishes and wall repairs modest in order to fall below  the 30% of the assessed value of the building, which might trigger requirements to bring  this mid‐19th century building into full compliance with the Massachusetts Architectural  Access Board’s requirements for new construction.  In meeting with Louis Hasbrouck, City  of Northampton Building Inspector, on February 6, 2017 the goals of the project outlined  in this treatment plan were confirmed and supported by Mr. Hasbrouck.  Once new  plumbing, heat, cooling and electrical service is installed, the space should meet the  needs of any perspective private office client.      We do recommend installing new carpet from the new entry to the entry to the attic and  at all second floor office areas to make the space more comfortable to a potential renter.   Carpeting was typical of the period and installation of new sheet carpet will reduce  1 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  SMITH CHARITIES                          MAY 2018  Page 3 of 4   reverberation levels and avoid the need to install a subfloor above the rough‐hewn  flooring that exists at the stairs and second floor level.     Similarly, while we recommend maintaining the basic layout of the second floor  bathroom, we advise removing all existing bathroom wood paneling and any damaged  flooring.   The existing toilet will require new piping, finishes and fixtures that are up‐to‐ date yet simple and in keeping with the historic character of the building.  Appropriately  selected ceramic floor and wall tile would provide a more sanitary surface and be period  appropriate to the building.    Note that current doorways, handrails and bathroom interior are out of compliance with  current accessibility standards but are acceptable in the building as a result of the build’s  historic status.  Making significant changes to these systems would not only trigger  greater expense, it would also change the interior character of a building that has resisted  change successfully.  We advise against any unnecessary changes to walls, with the  exception of the cut through on the exterior masonry wall for the new entry and the  optional removal of the added back hallway vestibule.  We also recommend replacing the  existing locksets at the doors into the first floor conference room and the reception room  in order to create secure separation between first and second floor occupants.       The total proposed cost of architectural and mechanical improvements to the building,  not including the structural repairs already mentioned, is over $360,000.  The most  expensive elements of this work relate to the masonry demo and new construction to  create a new entry at the back of the building, and new mechanical, plumbing and  electrical systems needed for occupation of the second floor.  The remainder of the work  relates to repairs to damaged plaster and wood trim associated with aging and past  instances of roof and window leakage.       We do note that the scope of work to upgrade the heating and cooling systems, which is  the largest cost in the architectural and mechanical estimates, is somewhat flexible in a  manner that is different than the rest of our recommendations.  While it is our  mechanical engineer’s recommendation that the entire boiler and air conditioning system  has outlived its expected service life and should be replaced with a more efficient boiler,  we do see this as less immediate a priority than the structural repairs and improvements  to the second floor.  We have instead included in the cost estimate the general costs  associated with provision of a new, separate boiler and piping to serve the second floor  and to interface with a new attic installed air handling unit to provide cooling, ventilation  and heating to the second floor only, assuming that continuing use of the current boiler  can sustain the current needs at the first floor.  If the improvements to the second floor  1 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  SMITH CHARITIES                          MAY 2018  Page 4 of 4   are not carried out within 3‐5 years we would encourage the Charities to look to replace  the existing boiler and air handler with systems large enough to serve both floors.     Because these mechanical improvements are required as a part of any strategy to rent  the second floor of the building, we have not broken them out from the  architectural/mechanical cost estimate, but have itemized them.    Exterior Changes  In order to accommodate additional tenants and the new entry at the rear of the building,  Smith Charities may wish to explore revising the current fenced area to the west of the  building.  The entry will reduce the depth of the existing parking space, but it will still be  viable.  One additional space can be added to the left of the current row of spaces, or, if  the Charity chooses, it would be possible to remove the large maple in the side yard and  create more parking to provide additional parking.  Note that the City of Northampton  has a tree protection ordinance that requires replacement of mature trees with immature  trees per City standards.  At this time we recommend against removal of the maple,  which provides shade and character to the outdoor space.  Maintenance Noting that it may be impossible to address the major recommendations of this report  without considerable development effort, we also include basic maintenance  recommendations in our section reports.      Two critical maintenance issues became apparent while developing these reports: (1) On  the interior, shoring up the plaster ceilings be refastening the existing ceiling to the lathe  strapping will help to preserve the existing ceilings until at points where separation is  already occurring.  (2) On the exterior, loose masonry grout and masonry has dislodged  and is held up by the bird netting protecting the cornice. This should be cleaned and the  netting inspected to insure that there is no risk of raining down on pedestrians.  (3) There  is a clog in the west and northwest downspouts that has the gutters overflowing. This  overflow is washing the west face of the building and adding to the deterioration of the  sandstone. The gutters should be cleaned out every year and the connections to  downspouts visually inspected for any significant separation.    Given the condition of the interior plaster on the northeast side of the interior, we also recommend that this chimney in particularly be investigated more thoroughly as attic collar tie installation, masonry repair and interior plaster repair work is undertaken to be sure no water is finding its way in through the flashing or through the exterior wall.

The following is a summary of our observations and recommendations. For the purposes of this report the front of the building will be considered to face the south. Building Structure Description Smith Charities is a two-story building with a full basement and attic. The first and second floors are constructed with sawn lumber joists and subfloor spanning between the exterior masonry walls and interior bearing walls. The basement floor is a slab on grade. The roof structure is a board sheathed sawn lumber hip, with rafters supported mid-length by a ring of truss supported timber purlins at the north and south, and truss chords at the east and west. The attic floor is composed sawn lumber joists running in the east-west direction between five interior trusses and the east and west exterior walls. The upper portion of the roof, above the purlins, has no collar ties. The exterior walls are composed of multi-wythe brick masonry with what appears to be Longmeadow brownstone skin and trim. Noted Building Conditions and Repair Recommendations Exterior/ Masonry Elevations The exterior suffers from a variety of age and structure related conditions, all of which have been mapped out on the attached annotated elevations. Structures North Smith Charities 23 February 2018 Northampton, MA 2 Bedding orientation has directly affected their performance as can be seen from the conditions. Sedimentary stones are formed in slowly deposited layers of material that landed in flat beds on the ground, ocean or riverbed surface. These flat beds are called bedding planes. The variation between layers of material was typically greater than the variation within each layer, and sheet-type minerals such as mica landed flat upon the planes, creating numerous small vertical areas on each plane that would not be bonded, with the combined result being a plane of orientation with reduced transverse cohesion. In practice one wants to cut and orient sedimentary stones so that the bedding planes are kept in their natural horizontal orientations, so that the planes remain compressed by the overburdening structure above them. This is called “natural bedding” and commonly reveals itself with horizontal striations on the exterior. In less preferred practice, the stones are sometimes oriented with their bedding planes vertical and perpendicular to the exterior masonry face. This is called “end bedding” and typically reveals itself with vertical striations on the exterior. In this case there is not the compressive restraint holding the planes together, and under weathering conditons the planes can start to peel apart. In another less perfered practice, the stones are sometimes oriented with the bedding planes parallel to the exposed masonry face. This is called “face bedding” and reveals a total lack of any striations, rather a flat, uniform or slightly mottled surface appearance. This configuration offers no restraint against delamination and under weathering conditions the bedding planes can literally peel off. The exterior conditions are as follow: X1 Edge-Spalled Ashlar Units- Many of the coursed stone units that make up the building’s flat ashlar “field” are spalling along their edges. The majority of the ashlar units appear to be face-bedded, and water appears to be seeping into the stone edges at the mortar joints and peeling apart bedding planes, starting at the edges. The affected units can be honed back and the joints cut and repointed. This is a Priority 3 item. X2 Deeply Spalling or Shaling Ashlar and Frieze Units- These are the mechanisms that are noted above but of a greater degree of severity, where the stone surfaces have eroded several inches inward from their original face planes. The eroded portions of the units should be ground back to sound material and then patched with a compatible restoration mortar, or the units should be replaced. This is a Priority 2 item. X3 Isolated Deep Ashlar Spalls- Several of the ashlar units have deep isolated spalls where the outer planes are peeling off in a pocked manner. The affected stones should be patched or in the worst cases replaced. This is a Priority 2 item. Structures North Smith Charities 23 February 2018 Northampton, MA 3 X4 Structural Cracks- There are several oriented structural joints cracks within the middle portions of the north and south elevations running up and down from the second floor windows. These are likely reactions to forced elongation movements in the ashlar stonework that may have been caused by a combination of brick moisture growth (swelling), outward bending from roof spread (please see “Interior/ Attic and Roof Framing”, below), and simple seasonal thermal and moisture stresses. The cracked mortar joints should be deeply cut, jet cleaned, surface pointed and then injected with a compatible grout (ultra-low shrinkage, self- consolidating pozzolan lime or equivalent), assuming that the forces that are causing the wall movements have been eliminated or have stopped. This is a Priority 2 item. X5 Failed Quoin Units- Nearly all of the quoin units are face and end bedded and nearly two thirds of these stones have planar delaminations and have failed. We recommend replacing all of the quoins. This is a Priority 2 item. X6 Deteriorating Sill and Trim Stones- Many of the windowsill and projecting portions of trim stones are splitting, shaling or spalling, depending upon their orientations, and are in local states of failure. The windowsills should be replaced, and the failing projections should be cut off and replaced with adhered Dutchmen (fitted patches) or the entire stone units should be replaced if there is not sufficient sound material left to attach to. The trim projections of many of the rounded window hood stones have been removed. These could also be replaced to restore the original appearance. This is a Priority 2 item. X7 Shaling Cornice Units- Significant portions of the cornice units, which are naturally bedded, have layers peeling or starting to peel off of them, and netting has been added below them to catch the falling debris. The loosening material should be scaled and removed, and ultimately the most deteriorated stones will need to be replaced. This is a Priority 1 item. X8 Open Gaps and Deteriorated Keystones- There are open gaps within the ashlar construction above many of the key stones, many of with are damaged. These may be a result of the keystones slipping downward or from their tops deteriorating, or an original mis-fit in the masonry. One keystone in particular is loose and hanging part way out of the wall. We recommend that the keystones be replaced with new ones that are properly sized to fill the gaps above them. This is a Priority 1 item. X9 Deteriorated Front Carvings- The carved scroll and name plate on the front elevation have lost all of their detail and have been slathered with a repair mortar. The carvings should eventually be restored. This is a Priority 3 item. Interior/ Basement- The basement is on good condition with only one item noted: Structures North Smith Charities 23 February 2018 Northampton, MA 4 B1 A hole has been chopped through a brick arch spanning over an opening on the east side of the chimney base for pipes to pass through. The pipes should be sleeved and the chopped hole repaired. This is a Priority 2 item. Interior/ First Floor- We noted to structurally related issues at the first floor, however the lack of a secondary egress is concerning. Interior/ Second Floor- Conditions noted at the second floor are for the most part secondary reactions to conditions noted above. The following was noted: S1 There are cracks between the west ends of the interior cross walls and the east wall that widen toward the ceiling. These cracks have been caused by the eastward leaning of the exterior wall due to roof spreading above. Following roof repairs (please see “Interior/ Attic and Roof Framing”, below), the cracks should be patched. S2 There are several ceiling cracks in the front room that likely related to wall spreading and movements in the attic floor. S3 There are stains and peeling paint patches on the ceiling that have been caused by roof leaks, which have hopefully since been addressed. Interior/ Attic and Roof Framing- I noted the following in the attic: A1 The upper peak of the roof, above the purlins, has no collar ties that would normally restrain the rafter bases to support the ridge. This puts an outward spreading force on the roof eaves which has caused damage below. Collar ties should be added between the rafters in the east-west direction, just above the purlins, to restrain the roof. This is a Priority 1 item. A2 The outward spreading has pushed the top of the east wall, and a short portion of the west wall outward. This is evidenced by six of the metal ties that once held the ends of the five trusses to the walls being partly pulled out of the brickwork. After the collar ties are added, the metal truss ties should be replaced and the pulled-out masonry repaired. This is a Priority 2 item. Structures North Smith Charities 23 February 2018 Northampton, MA 5 A3 There is a crack within the upper wall construction between the interior face of the stonework and the back-up brickwork. This is likely to have been caused by the outward spreading of the roof as well as general masonry deterioration, as the upper back-up construction could be taken apart by hand during our visit. The gap should be jet cleaned and solidly grouted and all loose brickwork re-set. This is a Priority 2 item. A4 Several of the purlins are twisting due to spiral grain. The lifted ends should be shimmed. This is a Priority 2 item. A5 One of the roof rafters on the roof’s west face is badly split and should be sistered with a new rafter. This is a Priority 2 item.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study was prepared for the Smith Charities and Jones Whitsett Architects. The study is intended to investigate the existing building Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing System’s existing conditions and to provide recommended potential solutions for MEP system repairs and upgrades. HVAC: In summary, the existing building is heated by a standard efficiency low pressure steam boiler that heats the first floor of the building via cast iron steam radiators. The first floor of the building is naturally ventilated through the use of operable windows. The first-floor toilet and wash room are not equipped with mechanical exhaust ventilation. The first floor is air conditioned by an older split system AC unit and associated outdoor condensing unit and ductwork distribution system. The basement and second floor of the building are not heated or air conditioned. The second floor of the building does have operable windows which could be utilized to provide ventilation. The existing building heating and air conditioning systems are generally in poor condition and have exceeded their expected useful service life. In addition, the existing steam boiler and air conditioning system have much lower energy efficiencies than modern day high efficiency heating and air conditioning systems. Therefore, it is our recommendation that the existing first floor heating and air conditioning system is removed and replaced with an upgraded heating, ventilation and air conditioning system that would heat, ventilate and air condition to the first and second floor areas of the building, and would also provide supplemental heating to the basement and attic spaces. Plumbing: Presently, the building is served by municipal water, municipal sewer, and natural gas. In general the plumbing systems are in poor condition. The existing plumbing fixtures are antiquated and do not meet current accessibility codes. Fire Protection: The building does not contain an automatic fire suppression system. Electrical: In general, the electrical systems are in poor condition, antiquated and are lacking in quantity and capacity. A 100 amp 3 phase service is undersized for this building. Any substantial renovation program would require a service upgrade. There is no fire alarm system, lighting controls are line voltage switching with no automatic devices and lighting is in poor condition. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 3 II. HVAC EXISTING CONDITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Heating System: The building is heated by a gas-fired low-pressure cast iron steam boiler. The boiler was manufactured by American Standard (Model G-27-FG Series 3BR53). The boiler has a rated capacity of 180 MBH input and 144 MBH output. The boiler was installed in 1983, is approximately 35 years old and appears to be in poor physical condition. The boiler’s estimated useful expected service life of 25-30 years; therefore, the boiler is past its expected useful service life. The boiler appears to have all code required safety devices in place. Low Pressure Steam Boiler The boiler is atmospheric vented by galvanized steel breeching which is routed up through a masonry chimney. The breeching appears to be single wall type and appears to be in fair condition. The boiler currently operates using natural gas. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 4 Boiler Breeching Basement – Steam Piping The boiler provides low pressure steam to cast iron steam radiators located on the first floor of the building through a schedule 40 steel low pressure steam piping distribution system. Low pressure steam condensate return is distributed back to the boiler via an insulated steel piping distribution system. The boiler is equipped with a combination water feed and low water cutoff controller that appear to have been installed in more recent years. In general, the steam and condensate piping appear to be in poor condition, with several sections of piping that appear to be missing insulation. Existing piping insulation may potentially contain asbestos, and should be tested in the future prior to any heating system renovation project. Cast iron radiators in the front office area of the first floor are located in architectural enclosures below each window. Radiator located in the Hatfield meeting room are exposed cast iron steam radiators, with a radiator being installed under each window. Front Office Radiator Hatfield Meeting Room Radiator The heating system is controlled by a wall mounted thermostat located on the first floor. A boiler burner shutoff switch is installed outside the Basement stair door. A battery operated CO detector was also installed on a window sill adjacent to the basement entry door. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 5 Heating Thermostat Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 6 Building Air Conditioning and Ventilation Systems: The first floor of the building is air conditioned by a direct expansion (DX) refrigeration split system air conditioning air handling unit. The AC unit was manufactured by Carrier and has a capacity of three (3) tons. The air handling unit distributes air conditioned air to the front office and Hatfield meeting room via a galvanized sheetmetal ductwork system and sidewall mounted supply and return registers. The air handling unit is located on a raised platform in the hallway between the front office and Hatfield meeting room. The AC unit is connected with refrigeration piping to a grade mounted outdoor air cooled condensing unit (Carrier Model 38TH036500DL) that is located in the alley way adjacent to the building. The AC system utilizes R-22 refrigerant which is being phased out of production. The AC unit and associated condensing unit appear to be in poor physical condition, over 20 years old and beyond their expected useful service life. The AC system is controlled by a line voltage type thermostat. The Basement and Second Floor areas of the building are not air conditioned. The building is naturally ventilated through the use of operable windows. The first floor and second floor toilet rooms are not provided with mechanical exhaust air ventilation. The first floor wash room is also not provided with mechanical exhaust ventilation. First Floor AC Unit Grade Mounted ACC Unit Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 7 Front Office AC Supply Registers AC Thermostat HVAC System Recommendations: Option 1 – Complete Building HVAC System Renovation: The existing building heating system is in poor condition, with the boiler, radiators, air conditioning system, and associated piping distribution having exceeded their expected useful service life. In addition, the existing steam boiler heating and air conditioning systems are very inefficient in comparison to modern high efficiency heating and air conditioning system. Therefore, we would recommend replacing the existing steam heating system with a new high efficiency hot water heating system consisting of a new high efficiency gas fired condensing hot water boiler plant and new terminal heating equipment to serve the first and second floor areas of the building. In addition, we would recommend providing supplemental heating to maintain temperatures at approximately 50 deg F (adj.). via hot water unit heaters in the basement and attic areas of the building. The new boiler plant would consist of two (2) new gas fired hot water boilers (estimated at 180 MBH input each – with each boiler being sized at 67% of the building heating load), new boiler exhaust and intake air venting, hot water pumps equipped with variable speed ECM motors, hot water expansion tank and air separator accessories, insulated hot water piping, terminal heating equipment and associated direct digital controls. As part of a building renovation project, we would also recommend that a new high efficiency air conditioning and ventilation system be provided for the first and second floor building areas to provide improved indoor air quality, thermal comfort, and increased energy efficiency. A potential air conditioning and ventilation system that would be suitable for the building includes the following: Air Conditioning/Ventilation: Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) System. This system would consist of a combination of ductless, console vertical style and/or duct fan coil type evaporative units (as required to meet the building’s architectural aesthetics) with refrigerant piping and condensate piping routed throughout the building and connecting to an outdoor high efficiency VRF air cooled heat pump condensing unit. It is estimated that the AC system capacity would be approximately 7.5 tons. Ventilation air handling units equipped with energy recovery ventilation, fans with ECM motors and hot water heating would provide minimum code required mechanical ventilation air to occupied areas of the building through an insulated galvanized sheetmetal supply and return ductwork distribution system. It is proposed that there would be two (2) ERV units, one installed in the basement which would serve the first floor and one unit installed in the Attic which would serve the second floor. It is estimated that the ERV units would have a capacity of approximately 400 CFM each. The proposed high efficiency VRF system would also provide backup heating capability for the building, and could be used to provide the majority of the building’s heating needs on milder winter heating days when it may be more economical to provide heating through the VRF heat pump system versus a gas fired hot water boiler system. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 8 Exhaust Systems: New in-line exhaust fans shall be provided to serve the areas of the building that require separate dedicated exhaust systems, i.e. toilet rooms, wash room, utility rooms, etc. Exhaust air systems for these areas shall include exhaust air fans, ductwork and associated controls. Toilet and wash room exhaust Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 9 Controls: A new web accessible direct digital control system should be provided for the new HVAC systems. Option 2 – Second Floor HVAC System Renovation and First Floor HVAC System Repairs: As part of this option, the following scope is recommended: The existing first floor heating system shall remain and existing low pressure steam boiler heating system should continue to be serviced and maintained. The existing first floor air conditioning system shall remain. We recommend that the first floor AC unit shall be tested, serviced and repaired as required as part of a preventative maintenance program. As indicated in Option No. 1, we recommend that the owner should strongly consider replacement of the first floor boiler heating and air conditioning systems in the near future. Heating for the second floor shall be provided by a new high efficiency hot water boiler. The boiler shall be installed in the basement and piping shall be routed to the Second floor air handling unit. New insulated hot water piping, boiler breeching, condensate drain piping and boiler exhaust flue gas and combustion air intake venting shall be provided as part of the new boiler system installation. Air conditioning and ventilation shall be provided by a new split system, AC air conditioning unit equipped with supply fan, DX cooling coil, hot water heating coil, filters and controls. A new outdoor grade mounted condensing unit shall be installed and piped with insulated refrigeration piping to the indoor unit, which shall be located in the Attic. New insulated galvanized sheetmetal supply, return and outdoor ventilation ductwork shall be provided for the air handling unit. New supply and return ductwork shall be routed from the Attic air handling unit to the second floor areas. Outdoor air ductwork shall be routed from the air handling unit to the exterior of the building. New exhaust air fan and ductwork shall be provided for the second floor toilet room. A new electronic programmable thermostat controls shall be provided for the HVAC system. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 10 III. PLUMBING EXISTING CONDITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Water Systems: The main domestic water service is located in the Basement Mechanical Room. The service includes a utility water meter. Domestic water piping is a combination of copper tubing and brass piping. Shutoff valves are antiquated. The domestic water piping is not insulated. There does not appear to be a domestic water heater in the building. Gas: The building is served by natural gas. Gas service appears to be 1-inch in size. Gas piping is black steel pipe with threaded joints. The natural gas supplies the existing heating boiler. Drainage Systems: Cast iron is used for sanitary and storm drainage. Cast iron is hub and spigot with lead and oakum. Where visible, the cast iron pipe appears to be in poor condition. Smaller pipe sizes appear to be copper or brass piping. Fixtures: The building plumbing fixtures consists of a floor mounted two-piece toilet located in the toilet room, and a porcelain wall mounted hand washing and a porcelain wall mounted tub sink in the Wash room located on the first floor. There is a wall mounted shallow tub porcelain sink in the basement that appears to be in poor condition. There is an old toilet fixture and sink fixture located on the second floor which have been disconnected from the plumbing piping distribution system.

Provide dedicated men’s and women’s toilet rooms. Provide new drinking fountain and mop receptor to meet current code. Provide new sanitary, waste and vent piping throughout the building. Existing domestic water piping is in poor condition. Shutoff valves are antiquated. Provide new domestic water distribution piping. Insulate all domestic water piping. Domestic hot water heater can be provided with point of use instantaneous electric water heaters. Upgrade natural gas service piping for new high efficiency heating boiler. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 14 IV. FIRE PROTECTION EXISTING CONDITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Existing Conditions: The building is not equipped with a fire protection sprinkler system. In general, Massachusetts General Law M.G.L. c.148, s.26G requires that any existing building over 7,500 square feet that undergoes major alterations, or building addition, must be sprinklered. Examples of major alterations are demolition or reconstruction of existing ceilings or installation of suspended ceilings; removal of sub flooring; demolition and/or reconstruction of walls, doors, or stairways; or removal or relocation of a significant portion of the building’s mechanical or electrical systems. Alterations are considered major when such work affects 33% or more of the building area or when total work (excluding sprinkler installation) is equal to 33% or more of the assessed value of the building. As the building has a total of 6,000 square feet, including the Basement and Attic, should the use remain as is we do not believe the building would require an automatic sprinkler system. If the proposed project scope exceeds these thresholds then the existing building, and its additions if applicable, will require installation of an automatic sprinkler system. The scope of work should be reviewed with the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 15 V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM EXISTING CONDITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Existing Conditions: The building is served by a 100 Amp, 120/208 Volt, 3 Phase, 4 Wire electrical service, which is fed overhead from Main street utility pole. The main electrical service panel is rated at 100 Amp, is manufactured by General Electric. The electrical service switch and panels appear to be in fair condition. The Electrical service meter and distribution panel are located in the basement. Electrical Service Basement - Electrical Meter and Panels Currently only the first floor and basement are provided with permanent electrical power and lighting service. The majority of basement lighting fixtures were not equipped with bulbs and the much of the wiring in the basement appeared to be in poor condition. In addition, electrical wiring was not properly supported in several areas of the basement. Basement –Telephone Demarcation Basement Conduit Wiring and Lighting Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 16 The first floor Front Office and Hatfield Meeting room are primarily lighted by rows of fluorescent lighting controlled by wall switches. The first floor Front Office areas do not appear to have sufficient quantity of power receptacles; as extension cords and power strips are utilized, this is considered a safety hazard. First Floor Front Office Receptacle First Floor Front Office Lighting The second floor does not have any lighting and is only equipped with one dual outlet wall mounted receptacle that is connected to a Timer switch via wiring in wire mold. The timer switch was manufactured by InterMatic, and is wired through a window on the second floor to serve exterior lighting. GFCI protection is non-compliant throughout the building. Smith Charities, Northampton, MA MEP System Study Garcia, Galuska & DeSousa, Inc. Page - 17 Second Floor Power Switch, Wiring and Receptacle. Emergency lighting and exit signs are lacking and not code compliant. Recommendations: A new 400 ampere 120/208V, 3 phase, 4 wire service with sub-panels to serve general purpose power, mechanical equipment and lighting. The equipment should be installed in a dedicated electrical closet and in compliance with the current NEC. Receptacles should be added throughout to accommodate today’s technology requirements as well as other general purpose needs. Lighting should be upgraded to energy efficient LED type fixtures to improve overall maintenance needs and increase energy efficiency at the same time recognizing that fixtures are required to maintain the architectural aesthetic where required. Automatic lighting controls should be added such as occupancy sensors and dimming photosensors. A new fire alarm system should be provided that meets code. Emergency lighting and exit signs should be upgraded to comply with code. RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE The following or recommendations for preventative maintenance for the existing building MEP systems. HVA: Low Pressure Steam Boiler: Clean breeching and boiler burner annually. Test thermostat controls. Inspect and test low pressure steam traps to ensure they are functioning properly. Air Conditioner: Test refrigerant charge, and recharge if necessary. Test thermostat operation. Change filters quarterly. Inspect air duct systems and clean if required. Plumbing: The installed plumbing systems do not require regular maintenance. Plumbing fixtures should be used on a regular basis to ensure traps are primed. Fire Protection: Not Applicable, since the building does not contain an automatic fire suppression system. Electrical: In general, the installed electrical systems do not require regularly scheduled maintenance.   January 4, 2018  Smith Charities | Northampton, MA  Existing Conditions – Architecture       Smith Charities is a 2 story brownstone structure constructed in 1865 in the Renaissance Revival style.   Each floor is 1,563 gsf. Presently the first floor is actively used to manage the operations of Smith  Charities. The first floor is heated and cooled.  The second floor remains in its original state as designed  in the 1860’s with painted rough‐hewn lumber flooring, plaster walls and original woodwork. With only  minimal active use and heating, the second floor is showing signs of deterioration particularly in the  plaster walls and ceiling. The second floor lacks hot water piping, radiators, air conditioning and basic  electrical service.  A single outlet is available in the front office  The basement is used for mechanical space and storage. The attic is unheated and unused.    The architectural survey is complement to the structural and mechanical report and focuses on interior  finish conditions of the first and second floor.    First Floor  Overall what can be seen of the first floor finishes are in excellent shape.  The floor is carpeted and  updated ceiling finishes mask the original plaster so the base finishes are hard to access, but with  consistent heat and summer cooling, it is assumed that the finishes are in better shape than at the  second floor.    Modifications to the front office and rear meeting room have detracted from some of the original period  design of woodwork and ceiling finish, but the current casework and finishes are highly functional.    A modification of the stairwell to accommodate an interior vestibule and support an added aid handling  unit has detracted from the original design and impacts the cohesion of the building.    Restroom fixtures are dated and should be accessed for replacement of fixtures and finishes.  Restroom  spaces are highly constrained and could be expanded to improve use.     Both floors show high quality replacement windows have been installed and are in good working order.  While not identical to the original design, the windows are successful historic replacements. They are  aluminum clad with wood interior.  Many wood sills in the building, particularly at the second floor,  show signs of water damage and need for replacement or reconditioning.                          MEETING ROOM (1st Floor) – a regularly heated space  ● Plaster in good shape.  Paint is in good shape.  Wood  sills in good shape.    ● Ceiling has been covered in a suspended acoustic tile  just above top of arched windows.   ● Wall to wall carpeting – very nice and period  appropriate.   ● 4‐1/2” chair rail that is unique to this room.  ● Fluorescent fixtures feel highly inappropriate to  period of building.  Ideally restore ceiling – add  acoustic panels to ceiling or wall – add drop pendant  fixture.      TRANSACTION ROOM/FRONT OFFICE  ● Plaster in good shape.  ● Ceiling 1” applied acoustic tile (mastic suspect for  ACM)  ● Carpet – wall to wall.   ● 70’s era linear fluorescent fixtures . Old – look like a  submarine.   ● Unique radiators below windows, boxed with gates.  ● Woodwork in good shape  ● Unique mid‐century counter (looks more 50’s)  industrial – in good shape.            FIRST FLOOR WC   ● No sink, just toilet. None are accessible.  ● Furred out Masonite wall board 3/4” off wall – up to  4’.   ● Original linoleum tile floor.   ● Glass half light door.  ● Plumbing fixtures not to current code.                                      Damaged ceiling conditions      FIRST FLOOR SINK ROOM  ● Hand sink (original) porcelain and deep wall (utility)  sink.   ● Wood paneling finish. 30”x55” dimensions.    SAFE ROOM  Not inspected.          STAIRWELL  ● East wall bows out at bottom of floor line slightly –  has caused horizontal plaster crack. Other plaster  cracks are relatively minor and repairable.  ● Paint peeling under window is evidence of lack of  heat and moisture. Need scraping and repainting  along all exterior walls.  ● Window sill typical.  ● Back hall at first floor level has been modified. An  angled wall and ceiling support and add air  conditioner that must condition front office.  ● Ductwork runs above doors to North wall. Piping runs  up West wall to unit from basement.   ● Ceiling gas fixture line remains 1’ near is newish  electrical fixture – very basic globe would  recommend repainting.  ● Ground floor hall West window sill in good shape.  Stairs to basement in good shape evidence of closed  cell spray foam air ceiling along back stair at framing  of window.  ● Oak treads, banister and base are all in good  condition.      Second Floor   Overall this floor is in need of repair to plaster systems at wall  and ceiling. Damage is greater at second floor level because  of structural inadequacies and outward thrusting of walls at  attic line.  Damage is also inevitable over time.  Water related  damage shows a history of roof problems that seem to have  been addressed.                  Typical second floor sill condition            FRONT ROOM  ● Expansive front room has four (4) operable windows  (arched), three at front façade, one along east  façade. Two window locations are in‐filled with  masonry and plaster such that they do not appear on  the interior. One window was in‐filled with Masonite  but retains all of its wood trim work.  It faces towards  the bank building to the west.  ● Rough floor boards are exposed and painted.  Probably once carpeted wall to wall as was not  unused in the period.   ● Bowing away of the east exterior wall (see structural  conditions report) has created vertical cracks in  plaster from floor to ceiling.  Ceiling plaster cracks  follow lines from wall but also react to water damage  at four (4) locations. One at east wall, one at  northwest doorway, and two at south wall rear  windows. Significant peeling reveals historic damage  as a result of leaking of roof.  Four (4) significant  cracks in plaster above south arched windows may  relate to stress from parapet or lack of rigidity in wall  face due to a size of window openings.  ● Crown molding is plaster and with continuous cracks  through molding.  There are substantial cross and  running cracks but is possible to repair. Damage is  worst in northeast corner where some corner  separation is evident.  Cracking radiates away from  arched window on east wall as a result of wall  displacement away from floor joists.  ● All windows have been replaced in the early 1990s.   Aluminum exterior and wood interior of replacement  windows is in very good condition.    ● Woodwork is remarkable.  It appears to be a natural  oak that has colored with age. The wall base is 14 ½”  high. The wood casings are roughly 8” wide.  All wood  sills have suffered from sun exposure and moisture.  The sills were not replaced when windows were  replaced.  Most are in poor condition and in need of  refinishing or replacements.  ● Jambs and casings are in very good condition.                Damaged wood base, second floor rear          Existing bathroom, second floor.                        MIDDLE OFFICE  ● Floors – Same  ● West wall – no cracks  ● North wall – five (5) cracks  ● East wall (window) ‐Shows similar high cracks where  top of wall has bowed away. Crack to the sill – also in  need of repainting or sanding and refinishing.  ● Woodwork ‐ Same     BACK OFFICE  ● Floors – Same  ● Significant plaster damage at rear chimney at wall  and ceiling. Similar corner crack as wall moves away –  greatest at ceiling – reaches to floor. Will need  significant replacement of plaster ceiling 8’ away  from east wall. Corner crack in Northwest corner as  well – (exterior wall).  Wall cracking otherwise typical  – not as severe. Ceiling otherwise typical  ● Window sills – same (dried)  ● Woodwork ‐ At base (base wall) of chimney the 14‐ 15” wood base has separated with 1” crack around  chimney.  Needs repair.  HALLWAY   ● Substantial peeling at ceiling near water closet.  Shows water damage over 5’x12’ area. West wall not  pulling away – no significant plaster wall cracking –  some off arch of west window is infilled with  Masonite could be opened for light.    WATER CLOSET  ● Undersized  ● Plaster condition is excellent  ● Woodwork okay but would require refinishing if  retained.  ● Porcelain toilet “historic” and undersized but intact.  Requires replacement.  ● 12” stone surround on wood cabinet.  ● Brass faucets  ● Cedar wainscot in water closet stall area – dry but  good shape. No longer permitted for reasons of  hygiene.                  Attic  Unfinished space, vacant. Exterior walls extend to roughly 3’  and support timber framing of roof.    No mechanical or electrical systems.    The attic is closed‐off at the second floor with a door.    Currently uninsulated, the attic could be insulated to reduce  building heat loss.      Basement  Unfinished basement is rough rubble walls to grade level at  about 5 feet and brick above. The basement has limited  power and lighting.  A framed storage area at the south end  stores some belongings.    The center of the basement is completely filled with the  rubble and concrete base supporting the safe above. The  front (north) end of the basement holds additional storage  space. Brick arched doorways connect the front and back  sections of the basement on either side of the safe’s base.    A high utility sink and boiler are located against the east wall  of the basement, as are communications utilities. Hot water  piping circulates in the basement to the first floor radiators.  Piping is insulated with typical wrapped insulation that may  need to be tested for asbestos should the piping need to be  changed.    A bulkhead exits to the north but has been blocked off as a  security measure.    Exterior Walls  The Smith Charities building is a masonry bearing structure.   The original brownstone is worn in many locations such that  the assessment of conditions was supervised by John  Wathne, PE of Structures North Consulting.  See SNC’s  existing conditions report and drawings for details.    Roof (Chimneys and Gutters)  The existing slate roof is in good condition and showing no  sign of leakage presently. The slate roof was repaired in 195          and 1992 with the ridge cap repaired in 1997.   The roof  should be regularly inspected.  Snow guards installed in 1991  are showing some  galvanic action at seams.     Chimney masonry seems to be in good shape. Crickets were  not installed in previous repair phases. It would be our  recommendation that the next major re‐roofing project,  which may be 15 years away, take advantage of the  opportunity to install upslope crickets to reduce icing at  flashing of chimneys.    Gutters are in good condition. Downspouts show some  separation at joints that should be regularly inspected.  The  northeast downspouts are clogged and causing overflow.   Again, this area as a whole in masonry and interior shows the  greatest overall damage. This could be a result of movement  of the east wall as a result of insufficient collar tie support,  but could also be secondarily impacted by the tree dropping  excess leaves into this gutter system.           1 Smith Charities        Jones Whitsett Architects

Per the requirements of section 101.5.4 of the International Existing Building Code 2009 with  Massachusetts Amendments (780 CMR 107.6), the Owner’s intention to add to or change the building  must be investigated and evaluated by a licensed design professional in accordance with the provisions of  the code. “This evaluation may include, but is not limited to evaluation of gravity loads, lateral load  capacity, egress capacity, fire protection systems, fire resistive construction, interior environment,

Currently the building is comprised of business offices  (B) on the first floor and  low hazard storage uses in  the basement and 2nd floor areas (S2).     Built in 1865, this Renaissance Revival style, 2 story brownstone “townhouse” has been in continuous use  for the function it was built for—as the offices for the Smith Charities, a nonprofit charitable organization  whose offices are not open to the public.     The current assessed value of the property is $ 423,310 for the land, and $ 173,890 for the building, for a  total of $ 597,200.  These values are probably lower than the market value, but they are irrelevant due to  its nonprofit status, and lack of sales history or interest in potential sale.   Its central downtown location in  Northampton makes it prime real estate, with great development potential, should such a direction be  undertaken.      2 Current Use Classification:  B & S2    Proposed Use classification:  B & S2

International Existing Building Code 2015  IEBC 2015 provides relief from many requirements of the IBC relative to changes that would likely impair  the historic character of the building in order to provide greater life safety.  The following are directly  applicable to the conditions at SMITH CHARITIES.    REPAIR: The minimum changes required for the upkeep of the Smith Charities Building constitute REPAIR  within the IEBC definition. Work on nondamaged components in order to repair existing components shall  be considered part of the repair.    COMPLIANCE METHOD FOR WORK OTHER THAN REPAIR: Should the owner propose alterations of the  interiors and improvements to heating, plumbing and electrical systems the work would be conducted in  compliance with the Prescriptive Method in compliance with Ch. 4 of the 2015 IEBC. [Note: Compliance  method should be reviewed with the structural engineer and client once scope of structural repair needs  and owner intentions for alterations are more thoroughly understood.]    IEBC 402:  Additions:  Additions to any building or structure shall comply with the requirements of the  International Building Code for new construction.     IEBC 403.1: Alterations: Except as provided by Section 401.2 or this section, alterations to any building or  structure shall comply with the requirements of the International Building Code for new construction.  Alterations shall be such that the existing building or structure is no less conforming to the provisions of the  International Building Code than the existing building or structure was prior to the alteration.    Exceptions:  1. An existing stairway shall not be required to comply with the requirements of  The IBC where the existing space and construction does not allow a reduction in pitch or  slope.    2. Handrails otherwise required to comply with Section 1009.12 1011.11 of the

These provisions shall apply to facilities designated as historic structures that undergo alterations or a  change of occupancy, unless technically infeasible. Where compliance with the requirements for  accessible routes, entrances or toilet rooms would threaten or destroy the historic significance of the  facility, as determined by the applicable governing authority, the alternative requirements of Sections  410.9.1 through 410.9.4 for that element shall be permitted.    IEBC 410.9.2 Multilevel buildings and facilities.  An accessible route from an accessible entrance to public spaces on the level of the accessible entrance  shall be provided.    IEBC 410.9.3 Entrances.  At least one main entrance shall be accessible.    Exceptions (may be relavent)  1. If a main entrance cannot be made accessible, an accessible nonpublic entrance  that is unlocked while the building is occupied shall be provided.      Fire Safety in Historic Buildings (IEBC)    IEBC 1203.3 Means of egress:  Existing door openings and corridor and stairway widths less than those  specified elsewhere in this code may be approved, provided that, in the opinion of the code official, there  is sufficient width and height for a person to pass through the opening or traverse the means of egress.    IEBC 1203.5 Interior finishes: The existing finishes of walls and ceilings shall be accepted when it is  demonstrated that they are the historic finishes.    IEBC 1203.6 Stairway enclosure. In buildings of three stories or less, exit enclosure construction shall limit  the spread of smoke by the use of tight‐fitting doors and solid elements. Such elements are not required  to have a fire‐resistance rating.    IEBC 1203.7 One‐hour fire‐resistant assemblies. Where 1‐hour fire‐resistance‐rated construction is  required by these provisions, it need not be provided, regardless of construction or occupancy, where the  existing wall and ceiling finish is wood or metal lath and plaster.    IEBC 1203.9 Stairway railings. Grand stairways shall be accepted without complying with the handrail and  guard requirements. Existing handrails and guards at all stairways shall be permitted to remain, provided  they are not structurally dangerous.    IEBC 1203.11 Exit signs. Where exit sign or egress path marking location would damage the historic  character of the building, alternative exit signs are permitted with approval of the code official. Alternative  signs shall identify the exits and egress path.    Note, a fire alarm system is not required in a building of (B) use and fewer than 100 occupants.  6 MAAB & ADA Compliance  Massachusetts Architectural Access Board (MAAB)    The accessibility requirements of 521 CMR apply to an existing historic building, Per 780 CMR  Amendments.  521 CMR 11.1 states that “parts of a building where a service or product is offered to a  member of the public and into which members of the public may enter shall be compliant with 521 CMR.”   Thus, if the current office use continues, and is not open to the public, then accessibility is not required.      521 CMR states that if the work being performed over a 36 month period is greater than the 30% of the  full and fair cash value of the building, which would be $173,890 x .3 = $ 52,167, and is greater than  $100,000 in cost (not including mechanical, electrical, plumbing or, roof repair, window replacement,  repointing, masonry repair work, septic related, site utility, curb cuts or landscaping) than the entire  building must be brought into compliance.   It can be assumed that much of the needed maintenance and  utility improvements fall into the excepted categories.  It is possible that work needed to create a direct  exit to the exterior, on  the west side or rear of the building, will be under the 30% limit.      It is also possible, under Section 5, to adjust the assessed value increased to reflect the “Full and Fair Cash  Value of the building,” either by raising the assessment to a 100% valuation, based on Mass. DOR’s  determination of Northampton’s assessment.   This would raise the compliance threshold.   Or, if the  assessed value is older than 3 years old, a request may be made to substitute an appraised value for the  assessed value, which would most likely be considerably higher.     If the work costs less than $ 100,000, then only the work performed is required to comply with CMR 521.    Section 3.9  HISTORIC BUILDINGS, allows for potential variances to full compliance, through consultation  with the Massachusetts Historical Commission.  If a variance is requested, a statement from MHC is  required in support of the request of MAAB.      11.1 GENERAL   Commercial Buildings:  the design of commercial buildings shall comply with 521 CMR.  Commercial  buildings are public buildings as defined in 521 CMR and shall include….the part or parts of buildings  where a service or product is offered to the public and into which a member of the public may enter  including but not limited to:  doctors’, dentists’, and counseling offices, etc etc none of which apply.”  This  is the only use category that might apply to this building, so therefore it is not open to the public and does  NOT have to be brought up to the Access Board Regulations.   Therefore, to utilize the second floor as  offices, those offices must not be open to the public, or fit the professional office definition which includes  visits from the public.       PLUMBING CODE COMPLIANCE  Plumbing Fixtures Required – Employee (Non‐Industrial):  Fixture Types  Requirements  Current Occupancy  + future 2 nd fl.   Fixtures Required  Toilets, Male 1 per 25  9 16  1   Urinals 33% of Toilets, Male   NA  Toilets, Female 1 Per 20  9 16  1  Lavatories  (each  sex)  1 Per 50  9 16  1 Each  Drinking Fountain 1 Per Floor 1 Floor  1  Service Sink 1 Per Floor 1 Floor  1  7   10.10 (i) Employee Toilet facilities for (Non‐Industrial) Establishments.  1.  In each establishment where people are employed, there shall be separate toilet facilities for male  and female employees.  The toilet facilities shall be located in the tenant establishment and shall be  plainly designated for male or female.  3.  Gender neutral toilet facilities may be allowed if they meet the requirements of 248 CMR 10.10  (18) (m) and (r).   UP DN DN UP UP UP 1 A B 2 30 ' -
