About this file
This document contains answers to questions from contractors regarding a federal solicitation for replacing roofs in Phase 3 of construction at the Robley Rex VA Medical Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The solicitation calls for replacing roofs on several buildings and removing approximately 40 pallets of leftover roofing insulation from Phase 1. Contractors will need to verify scope items like equipment supports needing replacement and fall protection materials to remove from Roof 8B. Nothing requires more than one site superintendent, but the site safety and health officer must be a separate qualified individual from the prime contractor's superintendent or quality control manager.

7. Specifications call for, “Remove and discard existing corroded and deteriorated equipment support as required”. It is likely that there is some corrosion and deterioration throughout many of these; however, what is the limitation on which of these will be deemed as needing to be replaced? Contractors need a way to accurately define this scope of work.
Contractors will need to site verify prior to bid or refer to Core Sample Report
8. Specification 01 11 00, 1.B.34 states, “Approximately XX pallets of roofing insulation is left from phase 1 roofing replacement at the laydown area under the tent. Contractor shall remove the insulation from the site.” Please confirm the total number of pallets.
Approx. 40
9. Specification 01 11 00, 1.B.35 calls for removal of fall protection material that is on roof 8B; please elaborate on the quantity and type of material that is to be removed from this area.
That was visually identified at the site walk-through

Specification 01 11 00, 1.B.35 calls for installation of permanent fall protection on roof 8B; however, there do not appear to be details within the drawings or specifications regarding the desired system.

11. Do we need to have more than one site Superintendent? Can the Superintendent act as Quality Control and SSHO? Nothing states that more than one site Superintendent is required.
