Is an incremental encoder acceptable in chain hoist provided <1/8" accuracy is achievable and position is stored in the drive on power‐down to avoid re‐referencing on power‐up?

Please provide pricing for a chain hoist with EACH type of encoder configuration; 1. an incremental encoder, 2. an absolute encoder. *designer provided several photos and/or reference drawings

Is a single hard limit and 'soft' limit an acceptable alternative to 4x limits in chain hoists?

Please provide pricing for a chain hoits with EACH type od limit switch configuration; 1. Ultimate‐hard struck, Initial‐ hard struck, "soft" limit , 2. Ultimate‐hard struck, "soft" limit *designer provided several photos and/or reference drawings

2.6(F) calls out Locat Control at the MCCs. Would a plug‐in point for the handheld console be suitable for this functionality?

No. Do not want to depend on finding a remote in and Emergency.

2.6(G) Please specify the necessary environmental rating (NEMA) for the MCR.

NEMA 4X adds Corrosion Protection which is important in our High Humidity Enviroment. An alternative can be proposed if it can resist high temperature and humidity.

2.6(M)(1)(b) MCCs are called out as NEMA 4X enclosure.

Can reasoning be provided as to why an enclosure that is protected from the direct elements (such as rain/snow/sun) is required to have such a high rating?

NEMA 4X enclosure will be significantly more expensive compared to a NEMA 3R or 4 enclosure.

NEMA 4X adds Corrosion Protection which is important in our High Humidity Enviroment. An alternative can be proposed if it can resist high temperature and humidity.

1.5 (B)(3) specifies with 60 days of acceptance testing. Is this 60 days before acceptance testing is to begin, or 60 days after acceptance testing is complete?

Please confirm where the "light ladder" specified to be demolished is located, the walk‐through did not make this clear and neither TR131 or TR132 show the "light ladder" locations.

The light ladders are shown on TR105 in "Demo ‐ Grid Level Plan" see notes. Additionally seen at site‐walk video yellow bean at left of frame at approx. time 5:30, 13:30 and 17:40 of walk through

Are there specific distributed load requirements for the stage floor?

While the stage floor is not part of this project, the allowable distributed live load should be approximately 150 psf. The resilient flooring on the stage floor must be protected during construction.

Please confirm "porta‐johns" will be required and that no back‐stage facilities will be open.

Section 116133 sub‐section 1.2.B.3 bullet "b" refers hoists for the orchestra ceiling over the stage and storage area. Bullet "g" also mentions the hoists over the storage area, please clarify locations and items referenced.

In section 116133 – 2.5.K it states “Provide 12 for suspension of concert ceilings units over stage” AND “12 for suspension of concert units in storage”. For a total of 24 chain hoists.

Or, are the braces referred to in S102 detail 1 additional bracing that is to be added?

Braces in drawing S102 are new, these braces tie the existing steel tube frame arbor brace to the wall. The design intent is to securely attach the arbor tube frame (which supports the tee bar) to the existing wall.

TR361 & TR362 call out the "shell pod" but there currently is no drawing of the "pod" referenced to understand location and interplay. Can photos or drawings be supplied?

Use Drawings R‐38 & R‐41. Additionally, *designer provided several photos and/or reference drawings

What is the mounting height AFF of the new hoists to be located at the orchestra ceiling storage area?
