1. Section 26 05 11 Part 1, 1.1 B&C; Part 1.10 A reference drawings for location of electrical equipment, electrical systems, conduit ampacities. Section 26 05 26 Part 2.1 C states conduit sizes shown on drawings. Section 26 41 00 Part 3.1 references drawings. Will electrical drawings be issued?

Answer: Section 26 05 11, Section 26 05 26, and Section 26 41 00, along with the associated work described in those sections, are not applicable to this project’s scope of work. These sections will be removed from the specification in an upcoming amendment.

2. Section 2B references Painting Section 09 91 00. Will this specification section be issued?

Answer: Section 05 12 00 and the referenced painting section 09 91 00 is not applicable to this project. Section 05 12 00 will be entirely removed from the specification in an upcoming amendment.

3. The specifications call for 10-gauge plastic coated wire mesh, however this will not meet the fall safety requirements called out for in the plans. The only way to meet this is to increase the gauge of steel, which will mean a switch to galvanized. Was it your intent to meet the fall safety requirements and have us put together our own specifications on this, or to ignore them and follow the specifications?

Answer: The plans do not specify the fall safety requirement. Specification Section 05 70 00, Paragraph 2.1- Wire Metal Mesh, Subparagraph A.2. Specify “Material: Metal wire, 0.08” dia. Minimum” that wire size is equivalent to 12 gauge.

The contractor is to comply with the requirements in the specification for the mess.
