3 191Z1026R0003 FAC Synthetic Turf Inst at Marine House

Question 7

SOW Documents – C. Drainage System Installation (Page 70): Please confirm whether the perimeter drainage lines required along the sides of the soccer field, as indicated in the attached photograph, are to be installed only along the two 29-meter sides and connected to the concrete chamber, which will then connect to the nearest stormwater drain.

Answer 7:

The contractor is responsible for design, supply and installation of the system. Please check the scope of work.

Question 8

SOW Documents – D. Sub-Base Layer (200 mm Crushed Stone) (Page 71): Please confirm the required sub-base material specification. The SOW refers to open-graded, washed angular stone while also requiring the 200 mm layer to be compacted to achieve 95% density. Please clarify the intended material gradation and compaction requirements, as open-graded crushed stone contains limited fines and may not be suitable for achieving 95% density. There may also be concerns regarding the layer's long-term stability depending on the material characteristics.

Answer 8:

This is a target density, but you can compact the 200 mm layer until there is no visible movement.

Question 9

Stormwater Drainage: Please advise the location of the nearest stormwater drainage connection point so that the proposed drainage arrangement can be properly confirmed.
