QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

SUBMITTED 10.15.26:

The A107 notes say "complete replacement," but the roof tags say "patch work only." Which governs?

Provide roof SF by area, and confirm whether the 15,000 SF allowance is the only full-replacement quantity.

[Ref: A107, A108; 01 21 00] ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

1.

Insulation is R-20 (07 52 16) vs R-25 minimum (A107). Which governs? Is a 20-year manufacturer warranty expected on areas that only get patch work? [Ref: 07 52 16; A107] ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

2. Confirm that "115 mils over fleece" means a 115-mil fleece-back membrane. The 1" insulation conflicts with the R-25 keynote. 3.5.G says "PVC ribs" vs TPO ribs in 2.2. Please clarify each. [Ref: 07 54 25]

ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

Details 2-5/A104 and A105 and "X/AXXX" are referenced but missing. Please issue them, and specify walkway pads for the TPO area. [Ref: A107, A108; 07 52 16] ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

3.

A107 says nailers are covered by unit prices, but there's no nailer unit price. Add one or clarify. [Ref: A107;

01 22 00; bid form] ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

4.

5. Will Duro-Last PVC be considered for the gym retrofit or replacement areas? If yes, a formal request will follow under 01 25 00. [Ref: 01 25 00; 07 54 25] NO

6. Provide the hazmat/ACM report. 1.6.C conflicts with 1.6.D. Identify any asbestos-containing roofing materials. [Ref: 02 41 19] OBTAIN REPORT FROM OWNER ASBESTOS IDENTIFIED AT

SOFFITS

Is a specific wind speed required for the TPO and mod-bit manufacturer warranties? [Ref: 07 52 16; 07 54

25] ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

7. In an occupied building, are there limits on hot-mopped asphalt near air intakes? Is a cold-applied or self-adhered SBS from the listed manufacturers acceptable? [Ref: 07 52 16; 01 10 00]

8. What are the construction window, liquidated damages, and allowable work hours? Is roofing during the school year or in summer? [Ref: 00 30 00; 01 10 00] COORDINATE WITH OWNER

Document corrections: the bid form says "Dorsett Shoals Elementary"; the 07 54 25 warranty form names Rome City Schools / Rome HS; 01 21 00 says "SMS"; and the bid hold is 30 days (bid form) vs 60 days (RFP). [Ref: 00 30 00; 07 54 25; 01 21 00; RFP] ADDRESSED IN ADD #

RFP 27-010 Turner Middle School – HVAC Modifications and Reroof, Q & As Page 3 of 3

Standing Seam Metal Roof – Gymnasium: Drawing A100 indicates a standing seam metal roof at the gymnasium as an alternate. However, we could not locate this alternate on the Bid Form or within the Alternates section of the specifications. Please clarify whether this scope is intended to be part of the Base Bid or an Alternate Bid item. ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

9. Alternate No. 1 – Carpet Tile Removal and LVT Replacement: Alternate No. 1 states to remove existing carpet tile and replace it with LVT flooring. However, the drawings do not clearly identify the locations of existing carpet tile. Please confirm whether all areas labeled D8.0 and R8.0 are included in Alternate No.1 or provide the specific locations intended for this alternate. ALL CARPET

REPLACEMENT IS IN ALTERNATE

R8.1, and D8.1 References: On plans A106, A103, A101, designation R8.1, and D8.1 are shown on multiple areas; however, no corresponding finish footnotes appear to explain these references. Please clarify the meaning of these designations. Should these areas be interpreted as references to footnotes R8.0 and D8.0, or is additional information available? ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

10. Roof Replacement Scope Clarification: Drawing A107, Roof Renovation General Notes state: "FOR

THE FULL SCOPE OF WORK, PLEASE REFER TO THE ROOF PLAN, ROOF DETAILS, AND THE

ADDITIONAL NOTES PROVIDED. THE SCOPE INCLUDES THE COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF

THE EXISTING ROOFING SYSTEM AND ALL ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS, SUCH AS ROOFING

MATERIAL, ACCESSORIES, AND SPECIALTIES (COPING, FLASHING, DRAINAGE SYSTEMS,

AND REGLETS). THE PROJECT ALSO COVERS ALL ROOF PENETRATIONS AND ROOFTOP

EQUIPMENT." However, the roof plans appear to indicate that the majority of the existing SBS modified bitumen roofing system is to receive patching/repair work only, rather than complete replacement. CORRECT

Please clarify the intended scope of work:

• Is the Contractor to provide a complete roof replacement of all existing SBS modified bitumen roof areas? NO

• Or is the Contractor to provide only the roof repairs/patching shown on the drawings?

CORRECT

Duct Cleaning: 23 01 30 HVAC Air Distribution Cleaning is listed in the Project Manual Table of Contents but is not provided. Is duct cleaning part of the project? If so, please provide the specification listed in the Table of Contents. ADDRESSED IN ADD #1

11. Grounding and Bonding for Communications Systems: 27 05 26 Grounding and Bonding for

Communications Systems is listed in the Project Manual Table of Contents but is not provided. Is this part of the project? If so, please provide the specification listed in the Table of Contents. NOT

REQUIRED

12. Plan A107 has a detail stating, "SBS MODIFIED BITUMEN ROOF SYSTEM TO RECEIVE PATCH

WORK ONLY." Is this patchwork at HVAC Roof Units ONLY? Please verify. NO
