RFI Responses:

• Sheets 1 and 2 reference page 8 for center post details as well as hinge details, can you send me that sheet or just the details?

See attached sheet for details. There is no center post that will be installed in the ground.

• Finish color and material for the gates?

- For color, refer to Section 9 – Finishing, Painting – 09900 of the project specifications. Section 2.2 specifies primer and finish color.

- For material, refer to Division 5 – Metals, Structural Metal – 05100, Section 5 – Metals, Metal Fabrications – 05500, and Road Closure Devices – 02840 of the project specifications.

• Can you tell me where exactly these are located, trying to determine concrete availability?

- FSR 112: Approximate coordinates are 33.330348, -110.802393 (There are two posts installed at this location that need to be removed. The existing gate, located just north of these coordinates shall NOT be removed)

- FSR 651: Approximate coordinates are 33.341104, -110.825495 (Existing gate shall be removed and replaced with new gate)

- FSR 899: Approximate coordinates are 33.267485, -110.904556 (Existing gate shall be removed and replaced with new gate)

- Locations to be finalized in the field with Contractor and COR.

• What is the anticipated completion date for the gate install?

December 3, 2021

• Is this project bonded?

There is no bid bond required however, If the offer exceeds the 35K threshold the following applies:

52.228-13 Alternative Payment Protections (July 2000)

(a) The Contractor shall submit one of the following payment protections:

___Irrevocable Letter of Credit_____________ ___Payment and Performance Bonds_________ ___Escrow account equal to contract total_____

• Is the payment and performance bond expected prior to bidding or once a contract is awarded?

As mentioned above the bonding would be due 10 days after award if over 35k

• Due to travel from the central batch plant exceeding the 90 minute batch to pour is the use of admixtures such as summerset permitted to stay within the minimum 3000psi spec?

Yes, the minimum compressive strength of concrete should be 3000 psi.

• Contract states no use of hand mixing, can you clarify? Does this include the use of a onsite mixer with premix concrete?

Hand mixing is the process of mixing concrete ingredients manually without a mixer machine. An onsite mixer is fine to use for this project.

• On the spec sheet the notes state 24"x48" footing but the drawing shows 3'x5' for the gate footings.

The gate footings should be 3’x5’.

Additionally, the drawings show two Type 3 barricade markers. However, per the gate signing specifications, four Type 3 barricade markers should be installed on each of the three gates. Retroreflective tape may be installed on gates in lieu of Type 3 barricade markers if desired. Refer to the gate signing specifications.

• The attached files have a 30' gate spec, is there one available for the 25'?

There is no drawing for the 25’ gate. It will be the same type as the 30’ gate, with similar dimensions, except for bar lengths adjusted to accommodate a 25’ length gate. Contractor shall provide shop drawings to CO for approval.
