2. QUESTIONS & ANSWERS: Please find below the answers on questions raised by few prospective bidders for your ready reference and to understand complete requirements.

Ql In manhole covers item S.No. 8. should be S00xS00mm and not

S00xS000mm, which I believe is a typing mistake. Please confirm.

Ans-1. It is typo error. The correct size is S00xS00mm.

Q2. In the price section Manhole cover sheet is to be Polished/buffed in matt finish, however later at page 5 of Solicitaion document, in 'Details scope of work'- point number 5 - it says 8mm thick checkered stainless sheet, please note checkered sheet cannot be polished and also difficult to get Checkered sheet 8mm in SS 316 grade.

So please clarify if it is must to use 'Checkered' or 'Plain' SS316 Sheet will do.

Ans-2, The main steel fabricator /manufacturers are making polished

/unpolished/ matt finish, all type of sheet. The vendor can purchase as per dint's requirement. Same is for thickness. Stainless Steel sheet is being manufactured in variety of thicknesses.

Q3. Based on the information provided, it appears there is a discrepancy between the written specification (5mm) and the diagram (8mm) for the frame angle thickness of the drain cover. Kindly confirm thickness of angle will be 5mm or 8mm.

Ans-3. Follow SOW. The drawing is for reference only. Manhole cover shall have a main frame which will be grouted with the help of holdfast.

The frame shall be made with 30mmX40mmX8mm stainless steel TEE. The frame shall have hold fast for grouting and installation. Per SOW Stainless
