A-126 & A-127 New shaft walls are noted around existing ductwork on sheets A-122 through A-125 (levels 3 & 4). Sheets A- 126 and A-127 seem to show the same shaft walls on level 5, but there are no notations. Are there new shaft walls to be built on level 5? Please advise.

No, the intent is not to install new shaft walls on level 5.

A similar question was previously answered in RFI#72:

Walls are shown to indicate the requirements for vertical support and protection of temporary ductwork and piping following demolition at levels 3 and 4. Contractor may propose alternative means for support of temporary ductwork in this location if fire dampers are installed at the third floor level.
