About this file

This document is Addendum No. 6 to Invitation to Bid (ITB) 25-FAC-0017 for building improvements at Dwight D. Eisenhower School, issued by the Orleans Parish School Board (OPSB) in New Orleans, Louisiana, with architectural services provided by Modus Inc. Architects and Planners. The project scope includes replacement of hollow metal doors and frames throughout the school facility, with specifications detailed in Section 08 11 10 (Steel Doors and Frames) and Section 09 90 00 (Paints and Coatings). Key clarifications in this addendum address conflicting information regarding Entry 1 and Entry 2, confirming both are hollow metal construction rather than aluminum storefront systems, with door #09 being the only aluminum storefront door in the project. The addendum deletes door #14 and provides revised architectural drawings (Sheets A-4.0 and A-4.1). A pre-bid conference was held on September 3, 2026, and the original bid opening date of September 17, 2026 was established. The project completion time was revised to six months following the Notice to Proceed. Post-bid documents are due within 10 calendar days after Notice of Intent to Award and must be submitted via hand delivery, U.S. Mail, or Express Mail to the Office of Business Partnerships at NOLA Public Schools.

The construction estimate for this project is $440,000.00. The specifications require hollow metal doors and frames to conform to ANSI A250.8 standards, with fire-rated assemblies tested in accordance with UL 10B, NFPA 252, and UL 10C standards where applicable. All doors and frames must be from a single manufacturer, with Galaxy Building Products listed as an acceptable manufacturer, though substitutions are permitted subject to approval. The project includes approximately 169 feet of 36-inch handrailing and 160.5 feet of 42-inch guard railing, with new railings designed to withstand 200 mph winds vertically and horizontally per IBC standards. Bidders must provide non-collusion affidavits, attestation clauses, and complete DBE (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise) responsiveness documentation. No electronic bid submissions are permitted; all bids must be submitted in sealed form. The project involves replacing exterior and interior door assemblies with new construction while maintaining coordination with the owner regarding preferred keying for all exterior door cores.

ADDENDUM NO. 6

ITB 25-FAC-0017 – Building Improvements @ Dwight D. Eisenhower School 3700 Tall Pines Drive New Orleans, LA 70131

Architect’s Project No. M25-001

For Owner: Orleans Parish School Board

Architect: Modus Inc. Architects and Planners 2300 Marengo Street New Orleans, LA. 70115

TO: All PLAN HOLDERS

Date Issued: September 30, 2026

QUESTION: The Contract Documents contain conflicting and incomplete information regarding Entry 1 and Entry 2. Sheets A-4.0 and A-4.1 issued with Addendum No. 2 identify these entrances as new storefront systems; however, other door information references hollow metal construction. Additionally, the details shown on Sheet A-5.0 appear to depict aluminum storefront/entrance assemblies. The Entries referenced in the question are storefronts. Division 08 – Openings of the Project Specifications includes Section 08 71 00 – Door Hardware, but we have not located a specification section for either hollow metal doors and frames or aluminum-framed entrances/storefronts. Please clarify the following: Confirm the required construction of the doors and frames at Entry 1 and Entry 2, including whether these assemblies are to be hollow metal or aluminum storefront/entrance construction. Provide the applicable specification section(s) for the required door and frame assemblies, including material, construction, finish, glazing, and other requirements necessary for bidding. If these entrances are intended to be aluminum storefront systems, please confirm the extent of the aluminum storefront framing associated with Entry 1 and Entry 2. ANSWER: Entry 1 and Entry 2 are hollow metal and are depicted and dimensioned in window type ‘A’/A-4.1. Attached please find specification section 08 11 10 HOLLOW METAL DOORS AND FRAMES. The details shown on Sheet A-5.0 are diagrammatic and the notes are generic. To be clear, there is only one aluminum storefront door and that is door #09. All other doors and door assemblies are to be Hollow Metal. Door #14 is deleted as part of this Addendum. See revised A-4.0 and A-4.1, attached. The courtyard door #09 is mislabeled in the notes below the door schedule as "NEW HM STOREFRONT STYLE DOOR/MATCH EXISTING" which I have revised in Addendum 6.

Additionally attached please find specification section 09 90 00 PAINTS AND COATINGS.

September 30, 2026 Addendum No. 6

B. Cleaning: Before applying paint or other surface treatments, clean substrates of substances that could impair bond of the various coatings. Remove oil and grease before cleaning.

1. Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces.

C. Surface Preparation: Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturer's written instructions for each particular substrate condition and as specified.

1. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime.

2. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove primers and reprime substrate.

3. Cementitious Substrates: Prepare concrete, brick, concrete masonry block, and cement plaster surfaces to be coated. Remove efflorescence, chalk, dust, dirt, grease, oils, and release agents. Roughen as required to remove glaze. If hardeners or sealers have been used to improve curing, use mechanical methods to prepare surfaces.

a. Use abrasive blast-cleaning methods if recommended by coating manufacturer.

b. Determine alkalinity and moisture content of surfaces by performing appropriate tests. If surfaces are sufficiently alkaline to cause the finish paint to blister and burn, correct this condition before application. Do not coat surfaces if moisture content exceeds that permitted in manufacturer's written instructions.

4. Wood Substrates: Clean surfaces of dirt, oil, and other foreign substances with scrapers, mineral spirits, and sandpaper, as required. Smoothly sand surfaces exposed to view and dust off.

a. Scrape and clean small, dry, seasoned knots, and apply a thin coat of white shellac or other recommended knot sealer, before applying primer.

b. Immediately on delivery, prime edges, ends, faces, undersides, and backsides of wood to be coated.

c. After priming, fill holes and imperfections in the finish surfaces with putty or plastic wood filler. Sand smooth when dried.

5. Ferrous Metal Substrates: Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop coated: remove oil, grease, dirt, loose mill scale, and other foreign substances. Use solvent or mechanical cleaning methods that comply with SSPC recommendations.

a. Blast-clean steel surfaces as recommended by coating manufacturer and according to SSPC-SP 10.

b. Treat bare and sandblasted or pickled clean metal with a metal treatment wash coat before priming.

c. Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been damaged. Wire brush, solvent clean, and touch up with same primer as the shop coat.

6. Nonferrous-Metal Substrates: Clean nonferrous and galvanized surfaces according to manufacturer's written instructions for the type of service, metal substrate, and application required.

a. Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet metal fabricated from coil stock by mechanical methods.

D. Material Preparation: Carefully mix and prepare coating materials according to manufacturer's written instructions.

1. Maintain containers used in mixing and applying coatings in a clean condition, free of foreign materials and residue.

2. Stir materials before applying to produce a mixture of uniform density. Stir as required during application. Do not stir surface film into the material. Remove film and, if necessary, strain coating material before using.

3. Use only the type of thinners approved by manufacturer and only within recommended limits.

4. Tinting: Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to simplify identification of each coat when multiple coats of same material are applied. Tint undercoats to match the color of the finish coat but provide sufficient differences in shade of undercoats to distinguish each separate coat.
