Requests for Information (RFI’s) for Plans and Specifications

RFI-005 – UPDATE

There are no stop signs, No Parking signs, Red Curb, Walkway Bars or Thermoplastic units scheduled? Should there be?

Stop signs: Not required. DELETE stop sign detail 1/ A107.

“No Parking”signs: A102: ADD Key note 41 to read, “No Parking Fire Lane Sign – see detail 2/A107” Typical 5 locations.

Red Curb: Fire lanes are indicated in documents – see key notes 34 and 35 /A103.

Walkway Bars: See REV-045 and REV-046 above.

Thermoplastic units: It is unclear if the term “thermoplastic units” is referring to tactile warning strips at curb ramp assemblies. If so, they are shown on detail 5/C603 and Sheet A103

RFI-024 – UPDATE

Specification 28 23 00, Will the camera network power switches (PoE) be provided by the Forest Service?

No, all camera network power switches (PoE) will be supplied by the Contractor. Video Surveillance system does NOT tie into the FS local area network. See revised section 28 23 00 and A-E104.

RFI-026

See spec paragraph 07 21 00.2.02.B. You will not be able to achieve the desired flame spread of 25 feet or less with the Type II , Class I facer that is called out. That facer is not one that is generally used in that application and I am assuming that the flame spread section takes precedence over the facer type as you are probably needing to pass NFPA 285.

REVISE paragraph 07 21 00.2.02.B to read, “B. Polyisocyanurate Board Insulation - exterior walls: Rigid cellular foam, complying with

ASTM C1289; Type I, Class 1, closed-cell polyisocyanurate insulation with glass fiber reinforced foil facer on each side;

Grade 1.”

There is a conflict between the glazing specified and the vinyl windows specified. Glazing section (088000) calls for 1” overall thickness but the vinyl windows are manufactured for ¾” or 7/8” overall glass. Please advise.

08 80 00: REPLACE sub-paragraphs that read, “Total Thickness: 1 inch.” to “Total Thickness: 7/8 inch.” at the following locations; 08 80 00.2.01.A.4., 08 80 00.2.01.B.4., and 08 80 00.2.01.E.3.b.

The Glazing section (088000) calls for “Green” tint. There are many types of green tint available but none of them meet the performance specifications listed. Please be more specific on the green tint. The PPG Ideascapes website may be helpful in determining the color.

08 80 00: REPLACE sub-paragraphs that read, “Tint: Green.” To “Tint: Clear.” at the following locations; 08 80

00.2.01.A.2.a, 08 80 00.2.01.B.2.a, 08 80 00.2.01.C.3, 08 80 00.2.01.D.3, and 08 80 00.2.01.E.2.a

Pricing Option 6 calls for Kawneer 451UT, front glazed in lieu of vinyl windows. The 451UT products is only available in a center glazed configuration. Please confirm 451UT center glazed is the intended system.

Yes, 451UT center glazed is the intended system (basis of design).

01 23 00 Options: REVISE sub-paragraph 01 23 00.1.04.F.b. to read, “Section Configuration Style: Centered glazed.

RFI-029

I’m inquiring about the Green Tint specified in section 2.01 Glazing Types for the Crescent District Office. Occasionally when I ask the architect the reason for the tint, the intention is to reduce the Solar Heat Gain. An alternative to the tint are the better performing spectrally selective Low-E coatings with two layers of Low-E, such as Cardinal’s Low-E sq., on surface two of an insulated glass unit. The vinyl windows with Cardinal Low-E2, Argon Gas filled, insulated glass units and no green tint, would provide a better solar heat gain rating than what is specified at a reduced cost.

Specification 09 21 16 - It is not clear from the paint schedule and finish schedule the level of drywall finish that is desired (3.06, A) at the various rooms within the building. Can you please identify what rooms specifically get a Level 5 finish?

Semi-gloss paint is defined in sub-paragraph 09 90 00.2.03.A.4 defining locations at metal doors, Frames, and Restroom

Walls & Ceilings. Level 5 drywall finish was intended to be located in the restroom walls & Ceilings. However, restroom ceilings at the administration building are assembly type B; acoustical lay-in ceiling tile. Therefore, Level 5 drywall finish is at the walls only for restroom 102, Men 122, Women 124, Men 208, Women 209 (Base Bid); walls and ceiling only at Future restroom 104 at the Fire Engine Bay (Option 1).

Additionally can the finish at the mechanical attic/lofts be Level 1?

RFI-033
