Where is Division 078100-Applied Fireproofing applicable to this project?

1/27/2022

This is in the documents. Applied fireproofing is required where existing is disturbed, damaged, or destroyed as a result of construction efforts. The Contractor is responsible for restoring the fireproofing to the required fire resistance rating in an approved manner. Sheets FA100 and FP100 address this requirement specifically.

However, other trades (electrical, mechanical, telecom) are affected. By observation (and must be field verified), existing primary steel members are fireproofed, see photo from our initial site investigation. It is Veltre’s understanding the old UBC only required primary steel to be protected and there were a few exceptions for omitting protection on secondary members that must have been applied here.

It is believed that the underside of the walkerducts were also protected.

On the CAT3 tie cable, coax cables and Fiber cables they are spec'ing CMR cable. This is NOT allowed and is a lot cheaper than the required Plenum cable (CMP).

As an RCDD I cannot knowingly bid the CMR cables that I know are not allowed. Which would only be cause for a high CO after the fact. They do specify the correct

Plenum rated cables for the workstation outlets. Bidding
