ShuttleSystem Computer Workstations – Wave/Straight Profile
All ShuttleSystem computer workstations shall be designed to allow for maximum flexibility in designing and reconfiguring different current and future classroom configurations and shall be specifically designed to be “docked” together with all other workstations in the system. The computer workstations shall be either 25”, 28”, or 31” high.
Worksurface/Wire management Cavity Cover – Worksurface shall either have a straight front profile or shall be designed to accommodate more effective conferencing and collaborative work by gradually sloping outward from each end, creating a wave profile shape. It shall be 30” deep and shall be available in the following widths: 24”, 30”, 36”, 42”, 48”, 60”, 66”, 72”
The rear 6” section of the worksurface shall serve as a wire management cavity cover. The cover shall open easily by rotating up-and-forward 90 degrees to provide access to the station’s wire management area. The cover shall remain attached to the station to prevent the cover from being misplaced. 1” deep rounded access points in the back of the wire management cavity cover shall allow power and data cables to pass through from the worksurface to the wire management cavity; the access points shall be wide enough to serve as handles to open the wire management cavity cover. Each wire management cavity cover shall be secured with two steel, European style hinges capable of pivoting 95 degrees. The wire management cavity covers shall be supported by a support brace/lock catch anchored to the back panel. An optional key-lock shall be available for the wire management cavity cover.
The worksurface and wire management cavity cover shall be laminated with high-pressure laminate bonded to 1 1/8” high density particleboard. The bottom surface shall be laminated with a backer sheet as a moisture barrier. Both the worksurface and the wire management cavity cover edges shall be finished with 2mm contour banded pvc.
The worksurface anchoring system shall be strong enough to support frequent lifting or rolling of the station for rearrangement and reconfiguration. The worksurface shall be anchored to the top of each side panel by an extra-strength tightening and fastening system. The fastening system shall consist of two 14 mm diameter threaded metal inserts installed in the worksurface, two 3 ¼” steel connecting bolts screwed into the inserts, and two recessed 35mm diameter zinc die-cast/steel 1080 degree tightening cams countersunk at the appropriate stress points in the side of the side panel.
Wire Management Cavity Characteristics – The wire management cavity shall allow easy and frequent access to power and data. The wire management cavity shall allow for the easy separation of data and power cables, both for individual stations and for connecting stations. The wire management cavity shall be located at the rear 6” of the workstation, just under the wire management cavity cover section of the worksurface and shall be large enough to accommodate a large volume of power and data cables. The wire management cavity bottom shall be fabricated from ¼” medium density fiberboard and shall be recessed 2” from each end to allow for wires to pass though. A 1” by 1 ½” rounded plastic trunking strip shall attach to the inside of the backpanel below the support brace/lock catch; a 3” high, 1” wide Nylon cable separator tab shall attach to the upper inside of each side panel.
Modesty Panel Characteristics – The modesty panel height shall be 11” and shall provide additional horizontal structural support for the main worksurface section. The modesty panel shall be anchored to the inside of each side panel in a through-bolt fashion for extra strength and extra support, using two steel 60mm joint connector bolts passing through the side panel and into two steel cross dowels installed in the modesty panel. The modesty panel shall serve as the anchoring point for two zinc die-cast/steel insert hinges capable of pivoting 95 degrees that shall also be attached to the wire management cavity cover. The modesty panel shall be fabricated of 1” thick high-density particleboard covered with smooth finish laminate on both sides and shall be finished with PVC edge banding on exposed edges.
Side Panel Characteristics – The shape of each side panel shall be designed to have a matching contour in the event that glide and castered side panels are used in the same workstation configuration and so that the contours match when stations are connected. The top of the side panel that forms the inside of the wire management cavity shall have a contoured wire-pass through channel, allowing power and data cables passing between adjacent stations to be easily laid in the channel rather than having to be passed through holes in the side panel. The distance from the back of the side panel to its front edge shall be 16” at the bottom of the panel to allow for less foot interference; this depth shall increase to 20” at its top. The side panels shall be fabricated of 1” thick high-density particleboard covered with smooth finish laminate on both sides and shall be finished with 2mm contour banded pvc. The bottom of each side panel shall be anchored to a 40mm x 80mm powder-coated, 14-gauge steel foot tube using two screw/steel cross dowel connectors for extra strength. Each foot tube shall be equipped with two adjustable glides or two optional casters. The side panels shall be offset and anchored to the underside of the worksurface at the appropriate position to avoid caster interference when two stations are moved together while connected (or “docked”).
Back Panel Characteristics – The back panel height shall be 16” high and shall be fabricated of 1” thick high-density particleboard covered with a smooth finish laminate on both sides. All exposed back panel edges shall be finished with 2mm contour banded pvc. The back panel shall be anchored to the side panels using 2 14 gauge angle brackets per side panel. The brackets shall be attached to the side and back panels using joint connector bolts threaded into the 5/16-18 threaded inserts installed in the panel. Located in the middle of each back panel shall be a 2-1/2” central power cable pass-through hole covered with a press-fit grommet.
Docking Connection System – Each workstation shall be equipped with a large, 5″ x 2″, self-aligning, extra-strength docking connection system to accommodate the easy connection and disconnection of stations. The docking connector shall be a central feature of all workstations and shall be “teacher-friendly” and allow for instant connection and disconnection of stations without tools and without removing any parts or hardware. The docking connection system shall be self-aligning and shall consist of two mating halves – made of heavy-duty Nylon for maximum ease of connection and longevity – which allow for easy station alignment and that result in stations being snuggly adjacent when connected. The docking connection system shall also consist of a sliding, spring-controlled, latch mechanism that automatically connects two stations when they are pushed together, and easily disconnects two stations when the button-head portion of the latch is pushed forward from the front underside of the station. The button on the sliding latch shall be equipped with a locking screw to discourage unauthorized disconnection. The docking connection system shall provide equally strong docking when there is vertical misalignment between stations caused by floor unevenness – up to a plus-or-minus 5/16″ of misalignment. When workstations are under extreme force, the docking connection system shall automatically disconnect with no damage to stations or latch if docked stations are pulled apart without releasing latch mechanism.
Component Connections – All connections between individual workstation components shall be made with machined, metal-to-metal hardware in order to effectively accommodate possible multiple assembly and disassembly of workstations over time.

Each attachment hole shall accommodate a 5/16 x 18 x 5/8 machine bolt that shall anchor into a 5/16-18x22mm deep threaded metal insert which shall be permanently imbedded at each corner of the work surface to provide maximum resistance to breakout under abusive impact conditions.
2) Adjustable Height Pedestal Leg – Each adjustable height pedestal leg shall consist of an Upper Leg section, a Lower Leg section and a plastic separating bushing. The Upper Leg section shall be constructed of a powder coated assembly of two 14 gage electric welded oval steel tubes – a horizontal top support tube and an outer vertical column. The horizontal top support section shall measure 30mm x 70mm and the outer vertical column shall measure 40mm x 80mm. The Upper Leg section shall incorporate an extra strength, hidden tubular interlock design located at the point where the upper horizontal top support and outer vertical column are joined. This hidden interlock results from the upper end of the outer vertical column passing through an identically matched oval cutout in the underside of the upper horizontal top support, such that the outer vertical column rests tightly against the upper inside tube surface of the upper horizontal top support. The outer vertical column shall then be tungsten arc welded to the upper horizontal top support by means of a continuous 360 degree weld around the full perimeter of the 40mm x 80mm outer vertical column. The horizontal top support tube shall have two attachment holes drilled through for the purpose of attaching the work surface. Each attachment hole shall accommodate a 5/16-18 machine bolt that shall anchor into a 5/16-18x22mm deep threaded metal insert which shall be permanently imbedded in the underside of the work surface to provide maximum resistance to breakout under abusive impact conditions. The outer vertical column shall be drilled to accommodate two ¼-20 height adjustment anchor screws.
The Lower Leg section shall be constructed of a powder coated assembly of two 14 gage electric welded oval steel tubes – a lower horizontal floor runner and an inner vertical column. The lower horizontal floor runner shall measure 40mm x 80mm and the inner vertical column shall measure 30mm x 70mm. The Lower Leg section shall incorporate an extra strength, hidden tubular interlock design located at the point where the lower horizontal floor runner and inner vertical column are joined. This hidden interlock results from the lower end of the inner vertical column passing through an identically matched oval cutout in the top of the lower horizontal floor runner, such that the inner vertical column rests tightly against the lower inside tube surface of the lower horizontal floor runner. The inner vertical column shall then be tungsten arc welded to the lower horizontal floor runner by means of a continuous 360 degree weld around the full perimeter of the 30mm x 70mm inner vertical column. The lower horizontal floor runner shall be drilled and tapped at 9 different 1” increments and shall rest on two non-adjustable, stainless steel glide or two optional 3”, 100 lb locking casters.
Both ends of the horizontal top support tube and the lower horizontal floor runner shall be fitted with large, soft-edged, plastic end caps that are sleeve-ribbed to ensure a snug fit. Each end cap shall also include a hidden anchor system to protect against accidental or unauthorized removal. This protection shall be accomplished by means of a latching element molded into the end cap, which, as it is installed, shall enlarge and capture the threaded stem of the glide or caster, or of the work surface anchoring bolt, securing the end cap in place.
Table top heights shall be adjustable in 1″ increments from 24″ up to 32″ by means of the Lower Leg sliding inside of the Upper Leg. The Lower Leg shall be protected with a 11″ long ABS plastic bushing which shall separate the two tube leg sections while at the same time allowing them to smoothly slide up and down – without scratching the outside of the Lower Leg – for easy height adjustment with a single 1/4-20 threaded machine screw.
Horizontal Support/Worksurface Support Bar: To provide for maximum support for each leg, the right and left pedestal leg shall be anchored to an oval 40mm x 80mm x 14 ga steel tube horizontal support bar that shall span the distance between the two legs. The support bar shall be securely anchored to each leg by means of two 5/16-18 screws.
