Can the Douglas fir be changed to SYP to match the other lumber?

A: Yes, it is acceptable to use SYP for the blocking.

A1.10 Q: Lumber specs call for the lumber to be dried a second time after treatment. This is something that our lumber suppliers do not recommend as it leads to checking, cracking and splitting of the lumber. Can this be dropped?

A1.12 Q: The decking states that it shall be Trex composite or similar, there are a variety of options that range wildly in price. Is there a specific kind in mind?

A1.13 Q: There is no thickness or width called for the decking, this is something that is variable as well. Can some clarifications be added to indicate type and size (Thickness, Width)?

A: Basis of design is for a 2" square edge, Trex Select Composite Decking (2x6 boards) or equivalent.

A1.14 Q: Borings are on the specs and they indicate they are on the plans but after reviewing the sheets; cannot find where the borings were taken. Can callouts be added indicating where these were taken from?

A: Updated plan with soil boring location to be included in Addendum 2.

A1.15 Q: In the prefabricated steel truss bridge specifications under truss style, it states that adequate drainage holes shall be added to aid in the hot dip galvanizing process. Is the truss bridge galvanized?

A: Basis of design is for a 2" square edge, Trex Select Composite Decking (2x6 boards) or equivalent.

A1.21 Q: Is copper naphthalene treatment of the wood acceptable?

A1.22 Q: Is fiber reinforced plastic or fiberglass grating acceptable in place of composite decking?
