13. Keynote 17, A-101, states to replace splash blocks at west downspouts (B5730) and provide drainage away from downspout at 1/12 slope for 10’ minimum.

Please advise if it will be acceptable to only grade the area at the 2 most North downspouts/splash blocks up to the sidewalk (leading to North Drive. To remain) referenced in keynote 8, A-101?

Response: Yes. It is acceptable to grade area up to the existing sidewalk. -tmd

14. Please provide grading plan, existing and new proposed.

19. Drawing E-101, Keynote 5 says to provide and install new pole lights in the same location locations as existing.

Would it be acceptable to cut off the existing bolts, shift each pole base 2-3”, drill new anchors, and set them with epoxy?

Response: New epoxy anchors will not be acceptable for this condition. If required, anchors can be cut down and new threaded rods can be welded to good anchor material.-LL

5731-PML-1?

Response: Refer photo, below.

21. Referring to S-101, it appears this work commences at the NE corner of the women’s locker room and proceeds east through the angle at the NE corner of the deck and terminates at the existing sidewalk.

Is that correct?

Response: Refer to excerpt for new fence extents. -LL

22. This may be means and methods, but our assessment is that the new fence posts will go in, then the 18” deck extension will be poured around the new posts. Are we correct in that assessment?

23. Should the reinforcing steel at the CMU footings be cut flush with the top of footing, or left exposed for future use?

Response: Cut the reinforcing and seal pocket with epoxy. -LL

24. Are the existing wood fence posts to remain in place as-is, or should they be cut to a specific height?

Response: Cut flush to footing and remove. Foundations to remain. -LL

25. Is the metal building structure at the northeast corner to remain, or is it to be demolished (including any associated slab and foundation) Response: Shed to be relocated, refer note 10/S-101.-LL

26. At the pump yard area, are fence posts to be core drilled into a concrete pad, or will this be an earth area for standard post installation?

Response: Refer to excerpt below. Yellow to be installed on the concrete pad (2/S5-01). Remainder will be the typical post footing detail (1/S-501). -LL

27. Please confirm whether there is simply an opening between the north and south pump yard areas, or if a gate is required. No gate is currently indicated on the plans.

Response: No gate is required. -LL There is simply an opening between the north and south pump yard area. - tmd

28. At the wading pool area, are fence posts to be core drilled into a concrete pad, or will this be an earth area for standard post installation?

Response: Use standard new post footing detail for this area (1/S-501). -LL

29. The structural plan sheet S101 indicates both fence post embedment in earth (Detail 1) and plated posts anchored to a concrete surface (Detail 2).

Response: That is correct. When the posts are next to exposed earth use 1/S-

501. When posts are surrounded by concrete deck on all sides use 2/S-501.-LL

30. Please confirm which areas are to receive each fence post application, or if one installation method is to be used consistently throughout the project.

Response: Refer to excerpt below. Yellow to be installed on the concrete pad (2/S5-01). Remainder will be the typical post footing detail (1/S-501).-LL

20. During the site visit we could not get into the panel room by the pump yard to verify breaker types and quantities. Can you provide us with pictures of panel 5731-PNL-1. Refer photo below.

WWYK250172 – REPLACE INTERIOR WALLS OF ISZARD POOL HOUSE -B5730

31. The POST EMBEDMENT SCHEDULE on Sheet S-101 lacks clarity. Please Clarify which post are First Interior Post, Second Interior Post, and Field Post?

Response: First interior posts are the closest to the corner posts. Second interior posts are the posts after the first interior posts. Field Posts are the remaining posts.

-LL

32. Based on the 35% Drawings the Post Locations appear to be 5’-0” on center. Is it the intent of these drawings to be accurate or do we use the fence manufacturer’s post spacings?

Response: Posts were designed as 8’-0” spacing but use the manufacturer’s post spacing. -LL

33. Detail 2/S-501, This indicates the HSS 4” x 4” Column (Post) are to be Anchored to the existing 4” Paving. Does this apply to all post to be installed around the pump yard?

Response: This applies to the posts between the pump yard and pool deck (west wall) and the posts separating the pump yard into two spaces. Detail 1/S-501 will apply to the other posts at the pump yard perimeter. -LL

34. Do the post mount indicated on 2/S-501 on top on the surface of the existing concrete where the original 6” CMU Walls are being removed?

37. Should the contractor anticipate the use of hydro-excavation for the new 18” diameter piers, since the existing utilities are indicated and shown in such close proximity?

Response: That is means and methods, the utilities should be protected. Hydro excavation is mostly preferred on base. -LL

38. Note 12 Sheet S-101 directs the contractor to re-use the existing gates and attach to new fence post. Are the existing gates mounted on the existing sides of Building 5731?

Response: The existing gates with keynote 12 are attached to plates mounted to the existing CMU fence or electrical room walls. -LL

39. What is the size of the pad for the relocated storage building? (Not indicated on CIVIL)

Response: Pad should be 5” thick (2/C-101) with 6’-0”x10’-0” footprint (to match fence extents on S-101). -LL

40. The existing storage shed which is to be relocated appears to be a site constructed structure that does not have an existing floor or skid foundation. Is it the contractor’s responsibility to move the existing shed and make any repairs to damage, which could possibly occur because of the relocation?

Response: Yes, contractor to make any repairs incurred during relocation. -LL

41. Based on the location of the new shadow box fence, it can be anticipated that the new fence will be located at least 15” away from the existing CMU fence. Will the pool deck extension stop at the same location or should it extend to at least the exterior face of the pier? (This is approximately an additional 9”).

Response: Pool deck extension is shown as 1’-6” on 6/S-501. -LL
