QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q 1. Since the Site Visit was cut short due to lightning, will there be another?

A 1. No, other site visits will not be scheduled.

Q 2. The painting of the pipe was discussed. In the previous RFI I asked for a spec on the enamel and was provided with an answer. During the site visit it was discussed that the piping was to be coated with a two-part EPOXY vs the ENAMEL Specified. Please clarify the painting requirement.

A 2. Refer to VHA spec 230511, section 3.7 painting. Ensure pipes are relabeled with painted on stencils in terms of supply and return after painting.

Q 3. The solicitation requested that Spring Type Hangars and Clevis Hangers be replaced. Please advise if industry standard black steel is acceptable or if galvanized materials are needed for corrosion protection.

A 3. Galvanization would be best. Anything that can help reduce failure from corrosion.

Q4. Please confirm that the VA will isolate and lock out/tag the cooling tower for the removal and replacement of the 14 in section of pipe and the control valve/actuator.

A 4. VHA will not be responsible for LOTO of equipment they are not working

on. Responsibility of the contractor to LOTO all systems that could pose a safety risk to the contractors’ employees or sub-contractors. VHA will LOTO components of the system they do not want on while the cooling tower is offline. i.e. the fan.

Q 5. Is there any time restriction on locating a crane adjacent to the building to lift material and equipment onto the roof?

A 5. No, it shall be done during the week days and during normal business hours. Coordination of crane lifts needs to be done through the safety office on site and through construction safety coordinator.
