Kennesaw Mountain John Ward Creek Bridge Replacement Project

Questions and Answers for Solicitation 140P5125R0001

Question 1. Can a copy of the geotechnical report be provided for this project location?

Answer: Geotechnical Report is included with Attachment 0001, Specification.

Question 2. Can we drive the piles with vibratory driving methods instead of hammer driven piles?

Answer: The specification request using a structural steel driving head recommended by the manufacture as suitable for the type and size of piles being driven (31 62 00 – 3).

(note: if contractor can meet and document pile driving objective vibratory methods can be approved)

Question 3. Will we need third party testing for driving the piles? If so, what method of testing is required?

Answer: Refer to Geotechnical Report.

Question 4. Would be any alternative options for the pile supports

Answer: No

Question 5. We would typically use either driven timber piles or helicals for a bridge like this when we have to cross a creek to get access. Steel H piles will require large and heavy equipment that may create quite a bit of disturbance.

Answer: Specification required H Piles.

Contractor shall submit plans for alternate piles complying with geotechnical and structural requirements.

Question 6. Would there be an option possible to price a fiberglass bridge? We've used those for equestrian trails on other federal properties in the past, and they are often less expensive than steel and require no maintenance.

Answer: No.
