1.7.1.1.2 & 1.7.1.1.2.1

Is paragraph 1.7.1.1.2.1 only applicable if concrete panels are selected? The RFP requirement for the inner stud wall is applicable to PIP concrete walls, site-cast tilt-up concrete wall panels, precast concrete wall panels and unit masonry walls which, when constructed, are considered to be concrete walls. 002

1.7.1.1.2 & 1.7.1.1.2.1

A-101 appears to indicate where cold formed / gypsum walls are required on the first floor if concrete masonry units are utilized. Paragraph

1.7.1.1.2.1 suggests that a "stud perimeter wall construction is shown around the perimeter of the multi-story structure on all floor levels". Is the intent of the RFP to require metal stud/ gypsum walls on the perimeter walls of all floors if concrete panels are selected for the envelope?

If an acceptable alternate choice, CIP, precast, or tilt-up concrete construction, is selected for the exterior walls, the entire exterior building envelope including finishes, waterproofing, insulation and installation of utilities must be designed for the material selected. The inner stud wall is an RFP requirement as shown on conceptual floor plans. In those spaces where the inner wall is not shown at the exterior on the drawing, an inner wall or other design solution may be selected to meet the insulation and utility requirements and be in compliant with Electrical Specification section 1.13.2..1.5 which addresses wiring runs.

Section 1.10.2.1 instructs Offerors to include a fire pump, but the RFP plans do not provide a location with sufficient space. Please either (A) identify an area within the building suitable for housing the fire pump and appurtenances; or (B) advise if the fire pump should be housed in a premanufactured housing outside of the building footprint.

The Individual Space Criterial Sheet for the conceptual Mechanical space states that that space is the primary location for 1st floor mechanical equipment including any air compressor and fire suppression equipment . It also states that the space can be subdivided for equipment types as required. Mechanical spaces shown on conceptual plans are not based on specific equipment systems and/or equipment and are entirely subjective. Such space can be enlarged, reduced, separated, subdivided, or reconfigured to meet the requirements of the final design systems equipment and service access requirements.

25 4/13/2023

A-101 RFP plans do not show an exterior door at Electrical room 137. Please either (A) confirm this is acceptable; or (B) confirm that Offerors should reconfigure the floor plan/layout to provide an exterior door.

The RFP conceptual floor plan shows the electrical room access from the building interior from the Fitness Center and indirectly from the exterior through the Mechanical space. Inside access is desirable because of the severe winters in Buffalo. Exterior access is not required but is not precluded either. If the offeror/DOR determines that direct exterior access to the electrical equipment room is beneficial or a required design requirement, they are encouraged to provide that capability. 002
