Peoria Bronze Door RFI Questions

1.

Question:

The specs indicate that the doors/frames/grilles need to be restored with laser cleaning. Please indicate if acid cleaning is also acceptable.

Answer:

The basis of design was laser cleaning means. Acid cleaning is not acceptable.

2.

Question: Is it possible to extend the RFP deadline?

Answer:

Bid due date extended to 4/22/22

3.

Question: Contractor’s general working hours are listed at 6 pm to 6 am in section 01 10 00 (1.8.C) of the specifications. Daylight is helpful to help gage the final appearance of the work.

Please let us know if daytime work hours are possible.

Answer: Work can be performed during working hours as long it does not interfere with building operations or is noise or odor causing.

4.

Question: On drawing G200 there are notes to provide a temporary wall with an access door on either side of the exterior set of doors. Can you please elaborate on the design for these areas and lock requirements? Wil the interior wall need to be full height, or just enough to prohibit occupant use? Due to the location, and fastener/adhesive restrictions, we are envisioning that the exterior wall will be compression fit into the entrance recess.

Answer: Compression fitted walls is acceptable as long as no fasteners or adhesive are attached to any existing walls / ceilings. Exterior wall to be full height. Interior walls can be partial height, 8’-0” minimum height.

5.

Question: There is a note on sheet G200 that states “Contractor is to install new concealed electrical to all doors requiring electric locks and power operation.” Can we please have clarification? The interior walls are stone and there isn’t anything in the specs about finishes, also we are treating the door frames in place, so we won’t be removing them to tuck anything behind.

Answer: Contractor shall conceal electrical wiring using existing metal door frame/adjacent construction to the extent that is practicable. No additional surface-mounted raceway shall be installed unless approved in advance by the Architect.

6.

Question: Missing section Section 050170.63 Decorative Metal Refinishing and Joint sealant

Answer: Revised spec with those sections included attached.

7.

Question: can we assume that the progress meetings will occur via zoom or teams? This will definitely result in time and cost saving versus having the parties travel to the site (unless of course there is a need to review a site condition).

The majority of progress meetings will be conducted via Google Meet. Pay progress meetings will be held on site.

8.

Question: One thing I hoped to see clarified when we get the joint sealant specification is if the sealant replacement was just at the exterior doors, or all doors? (The general note says replace “all” existing sealant, but I just want to make sure.

Answer:

Sealant specified is for exterior use only. Exterior sealant specified according to ASTMC 1248 has a different formula. Interior is paintable and has no fumes gassing off.
