Roan Contractor Ques�ons
1) Do the exterior stairs railing need to extend to the botom of the stairs or do we just need the handrail added? The railing does not quite go the botom of the stairs-this was not in the audit findings.
a. Yes, the railing should con�nue down to the landing in order to support the new handrail on one side. The railing on the non-handrail side could remain without extension if it meets the standards of these measurements:
2) Do we require a shop drawing for interior stairs for the bid submital?
a. No, not a shop drawing, but some kind of demonstra�on of what you plan to do.
3) Can contractor install pre-built spiral staircase for interior stairs?
a. The standard stairs are the best fit for the interior stairs, so the spiral stair is a “no go” according to OSHA for General Industry and our application as sleeping egress.
“1910.25(b)(8) Spiral, ship, or alternating tread-type stairs are used only when the employer can demonstrate that it is not feasible to provide standard stairs.”
4) Are contractors allowed to stay in the cabin while working on it?
a. Camping on-site is possible, but s�ll to be determined if you can stay in the cabin.
5) Does the contract need to be bonded?
a. No, it does not need to be bonded.
6) Is there a possibility of an extension to the comple�on date of the contract due to weather, etc.?
a. Yes, we can be flexible with the �mes.
7) If there is a possibility of an extension, what would that be? Extra �me, specific due date?
a. We will work with you and will be flexible.
