CLC 3 Questions and Answers Amendment #2

In the hardware spec, section 1.9, there is a reference to hardware sets: “symbols for hardware sets consist of letter (e.g., “HW”) followed by a number. Each number designates a set of hardware items applicable to a door type.” There are no hardware set numbers on A600, just abbreviations for the type of hardware for the door. Will there be any more details about actual hardware sets forthcoming?

• Answer - Refer to the door schedule for all door hardware requirements. No hardware sets are used in the spec or on the drawings as they are listed out on the door schedule.

When I was reviewing the above referenced project I noticed that the volume 1 spec book table of contents lists section 149133 Linen Chute, but there were no spec pages for this section. Should this section be deleted from the table of contents or are the pages missing from the book?

Answer – See attached spec section 149122 Linen Chute

1. On the reflected ceiling plans (A107-A109), the symbol for the Patient Lift System states “Patient Lift Track CFCI, Lift Motor & Accessories OFOI”. However, Note 4 on the same sheets states “Patient lifts to be furnished and installed by the contractor”. Can you please clarify this scope of work?

Response: Lift motors and accessories have already been purchased by the VA, therefore the contractor is only responsible for providing, installing, testing the lift track and supports. Contractor MUST use a manufacturer that is compatible with the lift motors and accessories that have already been purchased by the VA. Provide supports and mounting in accordance with manufacturers requirements. Contractor to provide stamped PE calculations for mounting and attachment to the existing structure.

2. The Table of Contents lists a Section 14 91 33 – Linen Chutes, but this section is not contained in the PDF bundles distributed for the bid. Can you please provide this section?

Response: See attached spec section.

1. Are the Ceiling Mounted Patient Lift Systems, Brand name only, or can we propose a different Lift Brand? as long as we comply with the requirements of Specification 11 73 00.

Response: Contractor MUST use a manufacturer that is compatible with the lift motors and accessories that have already been purchased by the VA.

2. There are confusing statements in some of the Architectural Drawings, are the Lifts and Accessories CFCI or OFOI?

Response: Lift motors and accessories have already been purchased by the VA, therefore the contractor is only responsible for providing, installing, testing the lift track and supports.

3. The Specification 05 12 00 Structural Steel Framing is missing, it shows as a requirement in Specification 11 73 00.

Response: Provide supports and mounting in accordance with manufacturers requirements. Contractor to provide stamped PE calculations for mounting and attachment to the existing structure.

4. Drawings AI-405 and AI-411, shows Headwalls Details, but the Specification for the Headwalls is missing, are the Headwall part of this project?

Response: All the headwalls are custom and do not require a premanufactured headwall product, therefore there is no need for a specification.
