QUESTION #1: Will you be replacing technology during this as well?

ANSWER #1: Yes

QUESTION #2: Will you be replacing furniture during this as well?

ANSWER #2: Some items, yes. Furniture will be by the VA

QUESTION #3: Substitution Request for Locker/Partition product-Hiny Hiders?

ANSWER #3: The product does not meet specifications and is rejected for the following reasons:

No baked enamel finish shown in the new specification which is required by the standard VA spec.

Recycled content should be 30% according to the VA standard spec. The new spec only show 25%.

Bolt/fasteners types are different from the VA standard spec.

New spec didn’t specify U-shaped brackets for securing edges of panels as required by the VA standard spec.

New spec didn’t specify U-type door pulls as required by the VA standard spec.

New spec doesn’t have Class C flame spreading; only Class A & B.

QUESTION #4: There is a specification section for Window Shades 12 24 00, there is a head detail for window shades, however there is not a callout for window shades on any of the windows. I would assume that the two new windows get new shades and the existing windows get the existing shades removed for demo and re-installed when complete. Please confirm.

ANSWER #4: New shades need to be provided on the second floor and fourth floor. See Addendum #1 drawings for added notes to keynote #23 on sheet AE102, and keynote #14 on sheet AE104.

QUESTION #5: SSU-1/CU-1 is shown with a refrigerant piping run of around 160’-170’ feet long. When the piping gets this long, it can derate/reduce capacity of the system. Is this acceptable, or would it make more sense to install the CU on the roof outside of the 2nd floor work area? Please advise.

ANSWER #5: CU-1 location to be on the 1st floor roof on the Northwest corner outside of room A200 with access through A200A. 2

QUESTION #6: Need some info on Electrical sheets 1-E-500 and 1-E-501. The Electrical Panels say “Existing Panels.

QUESTION #8. Will the SSHO be full time separate person?

ANSWER #8: The SSHO IS a full-time position and shall be onsite whenever work is being performed. They do NOT have to be a separate person; it can be the superintendent.

ANSWER #9: The VA will have a patient lift contract that will include the purchase and installation.

QUESTION #10.Specification 0550000 specifies ceiling mounted items, please verify who will furnish and install the Patient lift support steel or uni strut.

ANSWER #10: The only reference to ceiling mounted items in 05 50 00 is for toilet stalls. As to patient lifts, this is part of the lift installation (VA contract).

QUESTION #12. Is there an Asbestos report applicable for this project?

QUESTION #13. Is any portion of the area within the signage scope of work (Floors 2 & 4) a locked unit? Typically, these areas are provided an alternative material for the safety of the patients (Secure Spec).

ANSWER #13: There are no such areas within this project.

QUESTION #14. One the door schedule (1-AF101 & 1-AF102) it is saying that GL-1 is insulated glass but on the glazing spec it is saying that GL-1 is single pane laminated glass. Please clarify which glass type should be used.

On the floor plan it is noted that these doors are supposed to have auto operators on them as well but there is no auto operator hardware in hardware set 5. Please confirm if these need auto operators?

ANSWER #15: a. No auto operators are required on these two doors. In the Addendum #1 drawings sheet AE104 Keynote #6 has been updated to state, “Provide Handwave Actuator (Overhead Door company of Central Missouri – basis of design or VA approved equal). Refer to door schedule sheet 1-AF102.” The hardware sets have been updated to state the above as well. See Addendum #1 door hardware spec.

QUESTION #16. Since this is behavioral health do special screws need to be used like torx screws and do the hinges need to have hospital tips on them? This is not indicated in any of the hardware spec.

ANSWER #16: No, there is no such requirement in this project.

ANSWER #18: Removed note regarding “SDO Hardware set 116”. See updated Addendum #1 drawings sheet 1-AF101.

QUESTION #19. It mentions the facility standard hand wave actuator in multiple hardware sets, what is the facility standard hand wave actuator?

ANSWER #19: Door hardware spec updated in Addendum #1 to state “Overhead Door Company of Central Missouri-Basis of Design or VA approved equal” for handwave actuator. Bidder has the responsibility to provide information that the product meets or exceeds specifications.

QUESTION #21. Drawing 1-AD103 note 1 remove and salvage furniture, equipment and fixtures? Will this be performed by the VA? If not, is there a list of furniture, equipment and fixtures that are to be salvaged? I think it was mentioned at the walk through everything was to be removed and thrown away in dumpsters, no salvage?

ANSWER #21: The VA should have removed everything prior to the area being turned over to the contractor. A walk through will be conducted with the COR and superintendent to verify/identify. Anything left after this walk through is the contractors for disposal.

QUESTION #26: The current system is a Siemens Design Modular Voice system. Is this to be an extension of that system?

ANSWER #26: Yes

QUESTION #27: The specifications indicate “Guarantee Period Services”. In the past, the VA has chosen to not include that in the project specification as it adds additional cost to the project and that scope is covered under the VA Fire Alarm Service Agreement. Should we exclude the section 283100, 1.6 Guarantee Period Services?

ANSWER #27: There is NO “Guarantee Period Services”. Not in this section nor any other. Specifications will be updated accordingly.

QUESTION #28: There is not any detection in the corridors. This would be required by code. Should we include corridor detection?

ANSWER #28: Smoke detectors will be added. Refer to Addendum 001 supporting documents for locations and quantity of new detectors.

QUESTION #29: On plan sheet 1-MH500, there are 6 VAV boxes shown as “existing” in the notes. However, this is not called out on any of the plan sheets showing the demo or new installation. Are these VAV’s existing or new? Please advise.

• ANSWER #29: • On sheet 1-MH500 in the Single Duct Air Terminal Unit Schedule notes “Existing First Floor VAV box” under the Perimeter Supplemental Heat Link column. This indicates the new second floor box will be linked to the existing first floor box for perimeter heat. This work is shown on the control drawings.
