Questions and Answers Rev. 1

1. M300- The flash tank (FT-1) and air separator (AS-3B) are not scheduled: Provide a schedule for both.

· See attached air separator schedule and flash tank detail.

1. AD101/1- Stair 395 shows a unit to be removed, but the note is incorrect. Per the site visit, this is not a FCU, but a radiator. Is this radiator scheduled to be demolished?

· YES, demolition is part of this contract and includes piping.

1. P203B- Note 1- are trap guards acceptable in lieu of trap primers on the floor drains?

· See below excerpt from the VA Plumbing Design Manual. Trap guards are acceptable pending VA approval.

1. MP203B- Detail 4. There is an existing 600A electrical panel between the two windows where the steam lines are shown to run to the third floor. There is no room to install them in this location.

· Install steam lines plan east of grid line A.9 to avoid electrical panel. See MP203B attached.

1. There are also chilled water lines in this corner in the same location as the proposed steam lines. These are not indicated on the plans

· See response #4. Steam lines have been moved.

1. MH203B- Is there a drawing that shows the existing duct sizes within the chase? We are asked to provide fire/smoke dampers at each of those locations.

· Contactor shall field verify duct sizes.

1. M502- Detail 1. Cannot read this on the drawings

· See attached detail PDF.

1. M600- pipe insulation schedule. Please clarify the insulation thickness for the MPS. We are going to have a possible issue with installing the 2.5” MPS piping with this thickness with the available space in the areas where the riser is to be located.

· Thinner insulation can be used but must maintain equivalent thermal properties.

1. What are the working hours for the second-floor space below the footprint of this project?

· Work hours are expected to be during normal business hours of the contract, but subject to VA approval of a final work plan the contractor must submit to work in occupied spaces.

1. Is demo of equipment by a demo sub or is it by plumbing/mechanical?

· VA will not direct means and methods so long as all demolition is accomplished properly. Demolition on any existing system where partial system stays in operation will require a related discipline technician ensure remaining system is balanced and operating correctly.

1. Can the superintendent and QC manager have collateral duties?

· The VA is willing to accept a Site Superintendent as the QC Manager, but their resume must reflect experience required to be proficient to a level necessary to accomplish this project scope and magnitude. It must also indicate the designated person has performed as each position. Any contract requirements for these must both be met by this single individual.

1. In reference to Detail 4 on M700, the control diagram includes a supplemental heating valve “V-2” which is not typically included on a VAV box. Please ask the engineer if we can remove these points as they are not standard on existing VAV boxes at the VA in Fayetteville.

Please provide a detail for controls and sequence of operations for the heat exchanger.
