CONTINUATION PAGE

1. The door schedule on sheet 1-AS-502 indicates that door # 1100A and 1100B are to be hollow metal doors, in an aluminum frame. Can you please verify that this is correct?

Change door material designation for AS-502 for these two doors to Aluminum.

2. The same door schedule indicates door # C102 and C104A are to be aluminum doors in a hollow metal frame. Can you please verify that this is correct?

Change door material designation for AS-502 on these two doors to Hollow Metal. They are called out to be painted on elevation 14/414.

3. If the above two questions are correct, we would exclude the door hardware. We usually only furnish and install the door hardware if both the doors and frames are aluminum and can be attached in our facility.

Doors need to have all hardware per specifications and drawings. However, who performs this is up to the general contractor.

4. In specification section 088000, 2.2A & B indicate the same glass make up, only one is annealed glass and one is tempered glass. Both are indicated to be glass for the windows. Can you please confirm which glass type is required for the windows, so we can have the manufacturer provide pricing accordingly?

Tempered glass in all exterior and interior glazed surfaces including windows.

5. I would like to confirm that our scope of work will consist of the window types A – C, the glass & glazing for the doors and frame indicated in the door schedule, the glass & glazing for the HM frames W01 – W05.

All work included in the drawings and specifications are included within the project. It is up to the GC as to whom the work is assigned.

6. The sign types on drawing 1-AF-103 do not correspond with the specifications nor VA standards.

There is reference to ‘Addendum 3’ that may provide additional information. Please clarify.

Addressed in Appendix 3 (Attachment Appendices Final 7-21-2020).

7. On First Floor Framing drawing 1-S-201, there is note in the center of the page – “(N) W10x33 on (E) foundation wall up to second floor. Typical along grid line G, 12 locations”. Does this note also apply to the columns on grid line G.5?

The note applies to the columns on G.5 as well.

8. Please confirm existing rated capacity of the existing elevator.

3500lbs

9. Please confirm existing rated speed of the existing elevator.

100 ft/min

10. The Table of Contents lists Appendices “A”, “B”, “C” and “D” as being part of the specifications. These appendices are not part of the specifications that have been issued. Please provide Appendices A, B, C, and D.

Attached (Attachment Appendices Final 7-21-2020).

11. There is a note on sheet 1-AS-404 – “All new structural steel at loading dock and exit ramp to receive Intumescent Paint Fireproofing.” There is not a specification for “Intumescent Paint Fireproofing”. Please provide specifications for “Intumescent Paint Fireproofing”.

Answered on previous addendum, note on AS-404 requiring intumescent paint is erroneous. There is no requirement for intumescent paint on structural steel in this project.

See attached document: S06 Appendices Final 7-21-2020.
