Everett E Shaver, Jr., Contracting Officer Philadelphia Upgrade Patient Environment Bid RFI Set #2

1. Drawing 30-AS17(P1) elevations 11 & 19 show SV-1 as cultured stone veneer. However it is referred to as cast stone in the finish and masonry specifications. It appears to be manmade cultured stone. Please provide cultured stone veneer specification. See Specification section 09 06 00.

2. Please provide a specification or basis-of-design for the fireplace. See sheet 30-AS17(P1) Specialty Equipment Schedule Item #1.

3. Please advise who the current fire alarm vendor is.

4. Please provide a specification for the fiberglass columns as shown on drawing 30-AS24(P1), detail 11. Similar to Melton Classic straight shaft FRP column cover.

5. On almost all drawings the text is illegible. Instead of letters it shows as blank boxes. Subcontractors are declining bidding the project as they can’t read the drawings and determine proper dimensions, details, etc. Can you please have someone re-issue the drawings with legible text. The problem has been corrected and new PDFs have been issued.

6. Spec Section 10 21 23 Cubicle Curtain Tracks was issued but can’t locate any in the drawings. Please advise the location of the Cubicle Curtain Tracks. Delete Specification section 10 21 23.

7. Spec Section 10 25 13 Patient Bed Service Walls was issued but can’t locate any in the drawings. Please advise the location of the Patient Bed Service Walls. Delete Specification section 10 25 13.

8. Spec Section 08 71 00 - Hardware set #03 does not list automatic door operators in the set only a manual closer. However the note below it details the doors function with automatic operators. Please clarify the function of this Hardware set. In the note below the hardware set delete the words “& activates door openers” and “& activates door operators”.

9. Spec Section 08 71 00 - Hardware set #06 lists automatic door operators but the Note below describes a function not used with automatic door operators. Please clarify the function of this Hardware set. In hardware set #06 delete the line “2 Automatic Operator See Specification 08 71 13”.

10. Please provide information regarding which door #s are to have automatic door operators, what hardware sets apply to those door #s , and the correct Note description below each set that includes automatic door operators in the set. There are no automatic door operators. Delete Specification section 08 71 13.

11. Drawing 30- ES9 , refers you to 30-ES10 for continuation of the new 800 amp feeders from existing switch gear room. Should the continuation sheet be 30-ES8 ? If so what is the level of ICRA required for removing ceilings be to install the conduits through the existing living space. I would assume this is all day work normal working hours? Yes, the continuation should be drawing 30-ES8(P1). Additionally, the new feeder from SWBD #1 for new Panel DP-CLC is unintentionally shown branching off into two routes. The feeder shall not be routed via corridor C1-5 as shown on 30-ES9(P1); it shall be routed to continue south and into Unit B via Storage 1A102A and Office 1A103 [as also shown on 30-ES9(P1)]. The ICRA level is Level 3.

12. Drawing 30-ES9 at column line cc shows the continuation sheet number as xxxx. The routing of the new conduits into unit A is noted on reflected ceiling plan as no work in hatched and no ceiling types are shown in unit A. A reflected ceiling plan if available would eliminate any disagreements with respect to ceiling type and level of ICRA trough the existing living space. The sheet number should be drawing 30-ES8(P1). ICRA Level 3.

13. Drawing 30-ES13 Single line power are we to provide buckets for future work as noted as phase 2A , 2B & 3B in new 800 amp panel and is the emergency service the similar with respect to the scope? Generally, work noted to be performed later by others, is not in contract. If it is noted to be performed in another phase, this would also apply. With that said, Panels provided under phase 1 (if the panel is not itself indicated to be provided by others), shall be provided with all circuit breakers and spaces indicated as part of phase 1 scope. Essential systems and normal power are similar in this way.
