RFI #007 – Design Clarification on Concrete Strength details

Sheet(s) / Sub Sheet(s): 94/120 - SM001 Structural Notes (1 of 2)

31/119 - C501 Site Details

Plan sheet 94 of 120 (SM001) concrete item 10 states Cast-in-Place Concrete is 5500 PSI.

Plan Sheet 31 of 119 (C501) details 3 and 6 indicate concrete is 3500 PSI.

Please advise.

RFI #008 – Design Clarification on Steel Sheet Pile Cofferdam Locations

Sheet(s) / Sub Sheet(s): 88/120 - DM101 Demolition Plan

97/120 - SM102 Enlarged Seawall Plans

Plan sheet 88 of 120 (DM101) shows the steel sheet pile cofferdam at the south wall only and not at the south transition wall. We will need to extend the cofferdam to be able to form and pour the concrete wall per detail 2 on SM102.

Please advise.

Response: The cofferdams have been permitted as shown. The intent of the south transition wall construction is to use watertight forms as has been employed successfully on similar bulkhead/seawall projects including outfall extensions.

Response: Confirmed.

RFI #011 – Design Clarification on new Utility Force Main Installation

Sheet(s) / Sub Sheet(s): 27/119 – C302 Utility Plan 2 of 2

Can the short coquina wall at the north end of the South Wall be demolished to allow for the installation of the new Force Main line?

Response: The existing wall is to remain intact during demolition of the existing force main and installation of the proposed force main. The proposed force main shall be pipe jacked or bored under the wall. The existing depth of the wall is unknown and will require coordination during construction to impact the wall as little as possible.

RFI #012 – Design Clarification on Existing Seawall Demolition

Sheet(s) / Sub Sheet(s): 89/120 – DM301 Demolition Sections

107/120 – SM302 Typical Seawall Sections (2 of 3)

Response: Correct, the south wall is to be demolished under this scope of work.
