About this file
This is a Request for Information (RFI) document (#56) submitted by Valiant Construction, LLC to the Department of Veterans Affairs regarding Project 610-20-103, "Renovate Building 16" located at the VA facility in Marion, IN. The RFI seeks clarification about a discrepancy between architectural drawings AS400 and AS701 concerning window treatments for basement windows.
The specific inquiry, dated January 13, 2025, questions whether two basement windows shown with solid surface sills in drawing AS400 (Exterior Elevation North, detail 1) should instead receive aluminum trim as shown in detail 2 on drawing AS701. The architect, Viridian Architectural Design, Inc., responded on January 23, 2025, confirming that solid surface windowsills are intended for interior finishes only, and detail 2/AS701 should be used for basement window locations, effectively resolving the conflict in favor of aluminum trim.
