1) Sheet A-101 Keynote #6 shows replacing both the east and west exterior doors at the corridor. Section 2.2.3 in the Statement of Work refers to replacing only the east door. A-201 Keynote #4 points at the exterior doors but refers to sealing the perimeter. Please clarify which exterior doors are to be replaced.

27 SOCES Response: Both the east and west corridor doors need to be replaced. The Statement of Work has been corrected to reflect this. On A-201 Keynote #4 has been corrected to apply sealant on both the inside and outside of all exterior walls inside of the maintenance bay (Room 101) to ensure a water tight seal. This note does not apply to the doors.

2) Section 2.4.1.1 in the Statement of Work refers to insulation in Storage Room 107. The insulation is not mentioned in Keynote #4 on sheet A-101. Please clarify if this room needs additional insulation and where it is required.

27 SOCES Response: Drawing A-101 Keynote #4 has been corrected to match the Statement of Work, Section 2.4.1.1.

3) Section 2.2.1.1 in the Statement of Work refers to applying sealants to the exterior and interior of the structure. Sheet A-201 Keynote #4 refers to applying sealant to the inside of the exterior walls only at Maintenance Bay 103. Please clarify the extent of the sealing of the interior of the exterior walls.

27 SOCES Response: The entire outside perimeter of the building needs to be sealed. In the Maintenance Bay 101, seal both the inside and outside of the exterior walls. Keynote #4 of A-201 has been corrected to reflect this.

4) Sheet A-201 Keynote #2 points to the downspouts but refers to pressure washing the exterior. Section 2.1.3 in the Statement of Work refers to replacing the downspouts and gutters. Please clarify if this is what the Keynote #2 is referring to.

27 SOCES Response: Disregard this keynote. The drawings have been corrected to reflect the Statement of Work.

5) Sheet A-201 Keynote #5 refers to removing rigid insulation/sealant. At the site visit no rigid insulation was observed. Please clarify if this note is referring to the foam closure strip located at the roof/wall panel interface.

27 SOCES Response: Yes, this was referring to the foam closure strip located at the roof and wall panel interface. The drawings have been corrected to reflect this.

27 SOCES Response: Disregard Keynote #6. The drawings have been corrected accordingly.

27 SOCES Response: Yes the government will coordinate the moving of the equipment to accommodate construction.

9) Sheet E101 Keynote #1 refers to Detail 4 that is not shown on the sheet. Should this refer to detail #2 and if not please provide detail #4.

27 SOCES Response: Yes this was refereeing to detail #2. Please refer to corrected drawing.

10) The specs indicate sections pertaining to sections 09 30 10 Ceramic Tiling and 09 90 00 Paints and Coatings, however there is no reference on the plans pertaining to these scopes of work. Are they applicable? Please advise.

27 SOCES Response: The contractor is correct. Section 09 30 10 Ceramic tile was added in the case the government opted to go with ceramic tile instead of VCT (tile) covered in section 09 65 00 Resilient Flooring. To avoid any confusion, both section 09 30 10 Ceramic Tiling and 09 90 00 Paints and Coatings can be disregarded. If necessary, we can compile a new set of Specs that omit these two sections.
