About this file

This is a Questions and Answers log for a window replacement project at Tiospaye Topa, managed by the Bureau of Indian Education. The Q&A clarifies specifications for windows, confirming that 6065 T5 or better aluminum frames are required (not steel clad), with laminated glass for impact resistance and anodized aluminum finish to match existing colors. The glazing must meet specific performance requirements including U-Value of 0.27-0.30, Light to Solar Gain ratio of 0.61/0.29, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient of 0.29, and Visible Light Transmittance of 0.61.

The log contains 8 contractor questions submitted on December 11, 2024, with responses provided on December 17, 2024. Additional clarifications indicate that existing window sills are not included in the scope of work, and that building record drawings and interior photos of the quarters building are not available. All questions were submitted by a contractor identified as "TATCO."
