Answers to Questions

Q1. Sheet C02.01 Note 16 calls for a Pre-Fabricated Electrical Equipment Shed, This has the Panel A, Panel G, & E-Stop Contactor inside which I would assume comes with it, but sheet E6.0 One Line Diagram appears as if the fuel EC supplies these items. Please advise.

A1. The electrical gear and air conditioning equipment will be furnished and installed in the prefabricated building by the contractor.

Q2. Will Standard GRC 1st and last 10’ w/ PVC SCH 40 in between be acceptable?

A2. Yes, this is acceptable

Q3. Will any enclosure be required to be stainless steel?

A3. No, none of the required enclosures need to be stainless steel.

Q4. Do we need to install footers for canopy if this section is not awarded?

A4. Yes, the footers should be included in the base bid along with the conduits. The footer design for bidding should come from the contractors alternate bid for the canopy. (Supplied by their canopy supplier) mailto:ng.fl.flarng.list.cfmo-contracting@army.mil

Q5. Would a directional bore be an option for the communications conduit to the building?

A5. YES, Directional bore is preferred by the Department.

*If trenching cut method is used, the contractor will perform compaction testing when installed. The testing standards would be Florida Department of Transportation DOT standards section 125 that are used on state highways. This information is available on the Florida DOT website. The contractor shall submit their patch/cut design for approval if cuts are going done. See attached FDOT Trench Patch Detail.

Q6. Do we need to pull wire in conduits for canopy if not awarded?

A6. No wire should be pulled through the canopy conduit in the base bid., wiring should be included with the canopy as an alternate.

Backfill material shall be placed in accordance with Section 125 of the Standard Specifications.

In Stage #1, construct compacted fill beneath the haunches of the pipe, using mechanical tamps suitable for this purpose. This compaction applies to the material placed beneath the haunches of the pipe and above any bedding.

In Stage #2, construct compacted fill along the sides of the pipe and up to the bottom of the base, with the upper 12" receiving Type B Stabilization. In lieu of Type B Stabilization, the Contractor may construct using Optional Base Group 3.

Any edgedrain system that is removed shall be replaced with the same type materials.

Any edgedrain system that is damaged shall be repaired with methods approved by the

Engineer.

Fill material shall be placed in accordance with the Standard Specifications. Fill material shall be special select soil in accordance with Index No. 505.

In Stage #1, construct compacted fill beneath the haunches of the pipe, using mechanical tamps suitable for this purpose. This compaction applies to the material placed beneath the haunches of the pipe and above any bedding.

In Stage #2, construct fill along the sides of the pipe and up to the bottom of replacement pavement.

High early strength cement concrete (3000 psi) meeting the requirements of Standard

Specification 346 shall be used for rigid pavement replacement.

Pavement shall be mechanically sawed.

The replacement asphalt shall match the existing structural and friction courses for type and thickness.

The new base materials shall be either of the same type and composition as the materials removed or of equal or greater structural adequacy (See Index No. 514).

If compaction can not be achieved through normal mechanical methods then flowable fill may be used.

Flowable fill is to be placed in accordance with Section 121 of the Specifications, as approved by the Engineer.

Do not allow the utility being installed to float. If a method is provided to prevent flotation from occurring, Stages #1 and #2 can be combined, if approved by the Engineer.

In Stage #1, place flowable fill midway up on both sides of the utility. Allow to harden before placing Stage #2.

In Stage #2, place flowable fill to the bottom of the existing base course.

If mechanical compaction can not be achieved through normal mechanical methods then flowable fill may be used.

Flowable fill is to be placed in accordance with Section 121 of the Specifications, as approved by the Engineer.

Do not allow the utility being installed to float. If a method is provided to prevent flotation from occurring, Stages #1 and #2 can be combined, if approved by the Engineer.

In Stage #1, place flowable fill midway up on both sides of the utility. Allow to harden before placing Stage #2.

In Stage #2, place flowable fill to the bottom of the stone layer.

1. The details provided in this standard index apply to cases in which jack and bore or directional boring methods are not required by the Engineer.

2. Flowable fill shall not be placed directly over loose, or high plastic, or muck material (see Index 505) which will cause settlement due to fill weight. Where highly compressible material exists, the amount, shape and depth of flowable fill must be engineered to prevent pavement settlement.

3. These details do not apply to utility cuts longitudinal to the centerline of the roadway which may require the additional use of geotextiles, special bedding and backfill, or other special requirements.

4. Method of construction must be approved by the Engineer.

5. Some pipe may require special granular backfill up to 6" above top of pipe.

Geotextiles may be required to encapsulate the special granular material.

6. Where asphalt concrete overlays exist over full slab concrete pavement, the replacement pavement shall have an overlay constructed over the replacement slab. The overlay shall match the existing asphalt pavement thickness. The replacement friction course shall match the existing friction course, except structural course may be used in lieu of dense graded friction course.

Existing broken and seated pavements shall be treated as flexible pavements.

7. All shoulder pavement, curb, curb and gutter, and their substructure disturbed by utility trench cut construction shall be restored in kind.

8. The use of flowable fill to reduce the time traffic is taken off a facility is acceptable but must have prior approval by the Engineer. Flowable fill use is allowed only when properly engineered for pavement crossings, whether straight or diagonal, and shall not be installed for significant depths or lengths. The maximum length shall be fifty (50) feet and a maximum depth of six (6) feet unless supported by an engineering document prepared by a registered professional engineer that specializes in soils engineering. The engineering document shall address the evaluation of local groundwater flow interruption and settlement potential.

9. Excavatable flowable fill is to be used when the flowable fill option is selected.

10. When approved by the Engineer, in lieu of the pavement and base, non-excavatable flowable fill may be used for manhole stabilization and ring and cover adjustments. Excavatable flowable fill shall not be used within the limits of the pavement and base.

2. Concrete used in conflict structures shall be as specified in ASTM C478. 4000 psi may be used in lieu of Class ~ concrete.

3. Maximum opening for pipe shall be the pipe OD plus 6". Mortar used to seal the pipe into the opening will be of such mix that shrinkage will not cause leakage into or out of the structure.

4. If the conflict structure is round or there are multiple inlet or outlet pipes, then the wall section should be reviewed for strength.

5. If during the plans design or construction process it is determined that a domestic water supply line must pass though a storm drain structure, it must be shown on the design or construction plans and submitted to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Administrator For Drinking

Water in Tallahassee for review and comment. This index provides accepted methods for addressing conflicts when and where they cannot be reasonably avoided. To be submitted along with the plans shall be a justification describing inordinate cost and the impracticality of avoidance. If identified, properly justified, and accomplished in accordance with this index, approval is granted. Upon request, the Utility Agency Owner (UAO) must provide support data on the cost of relocation or adjustment to the FDOT for submittal to the FDEP.
