CONTRACTOR QUESTIONS:

1. Acoustical Panel Quantities Q: In corridor 500 you have “OPP” at the plan note J/A303 which I assume to mean the opposite wall gets the same panel layout. In corridor 500 you do not have the “OPP” at this plan note area. Consequently, I am assuming that in corridor 500 there is only one area of the acoustical panels. Is this correct?

A: The drawings are correct as indicated. There are only sound panels on one wall of each of the two corridors.

2. Acceptable Alternatives – Door Hardware (Hinges) Q: In Section 087100, Door Hardware under, 2.02 Hinges A. Full Mortise Butt Hinges 1, a.

A: Metal drawer bodies are a manufacturer’s option and not a requirement.

5. Asbestos Abatement Q: Specification states that ALL CMU walls have an asbestos paint. Demo drawing D101 has sheet notes 1,2,3,4 &13 that pertain to demolition of CMU walls but do not have any Hazardous Material reference. The asbestos section of the spec does not identify any CMU wall demo. Can all the CMU demo be performed by the GC or does it need to be performed by the asbestos subcontractor?

A: The drawings at the end of the asbestos specifications 02080 indicate asbestos is present on the CMU's behind/underneath the paint on walls due to be demolished. At all locations, the Abatement Contractor is required to remove the paint and asbestos material and the General Contractor can conduct demolition activities on the CMU's.

Alternatively, the abatement contractor can remove all applicable walls with the paint and asbestos material left in place. All debris would be placed into a lined dumpster attached to the work area/enclosure with plastic outside of corridor door nearest existing room 110, as noted on D101. This activity and associated dumpster must be completed and removed within 45 days from start at the request of the owner.

A: The only task for the Abatement Contractor, regarding the ceilings, is the removal of the angle bracket ceiling support attached to the CMU walls.
