YES NO FLOOR CONSTRUCTION: The floor shall be engineered using interlocking 0.125" 6063-T6 alloy custom aluminum extrusions set at a right angle from the frame rails thereby minimizing the twist felt in parallel mounting systems. The 0.125” floor extrusion shall consist of a "C" channel with hollow "V" joint receptacle on one end and an extruded solid "V" edge which mates with the hollow "V" receptacle on the adjoining extrusion. When the solid "V" edge of one piece is inserted into the hollow "V" receptacle of another, the toothed leg shall lock to form one side of the 2" tubular frame. These integrated extrusions shall form the sub floor with interlocking 2” x 2” tubes every ten inches. The floor extrusion sections shall be welded to each other both on top and on the bottom. A triple hollow 2” x 3” x 0.188” tube shall be placed fore and aft of the wheel well openings extending the full width of the body for maximum strength, crash protection and support of this critical area in the center of the body. Triple hollow is to be defined as a 2” x 3” x 0.188” aluminum tube with two integral 0.188” webs that serve to divide the tube interior into three equal cavities. A 2” x 3” x 0.125” tube shall be placed at the forward end of the floor assembly to provide additional strength at the cab to body interface. A 2” x 2” x 0.25” tube shall be placed at the rearward most end of the floor assembly to provide additional strength at the rear of the body and to provide a robust foundation for the threshold of the rear doors. Two custom 6063-T6 alloy aluminum angles shall run lengthwise the entire length of the floor assembly. This custom angle shall be “L” shaped. The bottom of the “L” shall be 4.75” L x 0.75” in thickness. The vertical part of the “L” shall be 2.375” L x 0.375” in thickness. At each juncture where this aluminum angle crosses a 2” x 2” framing member of the interlocking extrusion, it shall be welded to that framing member along both edges of the aluminum angle. These high strength aluminum angles shall provide a continuous mounting surface to attach the body to the chassis at the chassis mounting locations. In addition, these aluminum angles shall provide additional strength to the floor system making it a solid, crashworthy foundation upon which the rest of the module shall be built. As the floor assembly is constructed, provisions shall be made for the installation of the exterior compartment enclosures, the step well and any other options that will extend below the floor structure. At the edges of these intrusions, an additional 2” x 2” x 0.125 aluminum framing member shall be installed at the front and rear edges of the intrusion to provide additional support for the option. These 12 additional 2” x 2” x 0.125” framing members shall extend beyond the custom aluminum angle. This will allow the additional tubes to be welded to the raw floor edge of the intrusion, the interlocking floor extrusions and also to the aluminum angle. At the locations in the floor assembly where the cot mounting hardware is to be installed, there shall be additional reinforcement of the floor structure to allow for a safe and secure installation. This shall consist of a 0.375” solid aluminum block welded in the cot hardware mounting locations. At the attendant seat location there shall be additional 2” x 2” x 0.125 aluminum tubing welded into the floor structure as well as an additional section of 0.125” aluminum sheet welded to bottom of the floor for additional strength and to provide for secure attachment of the attendant seat to the floor structure. The voids between the 2" x 2" x 0.125 framing members of the extruded floor assembly shall be filled with 2” extruded polystyrene insulator foam plank insulation. The insulation shall be custom cut by hand to fill the void spaces. In addition, the foam plank insulation shall be glued in place using high strength, low odor adhesive.
