| *Should our offer be for 14 units and twenty units, since there will be a price impact related to quantity that will be ordered? |
| The offer should be for 20 units per year. This contract will be a base +4 option years contract (5 total years). |
| *What quantity should we quote on? |
| 20 items per year. |
| *What period of time will purchase occur? |

| Angle Bracket |
| *We believe it is 1/8" thick steel A-36? |
| 1/8” thick A-36 steel is correct. |
| Finishing | | |
| *As we understand,the steel members are left raw and subjected to oxidation, Correct? | | |
| We do our own priming and painting here to match the rest of the system. | | |
| *We noticed that most of the dimensions on these drawings are shown as a 3 place decimal which means tolerance of + /- 005" must be applied is that correct? | | |
| Standard metal fabrication practices apply. | | |
| *If so it is required that all these dimensions be machined [ extremely costly] rather than using normal fabrication techniques with a tolerance related to same. | | |
| General fabrication practices, where holes align exact fit. | | |
| Adjustment Bracket | | |
| *We understand this to be a machined part, what Radius required in the corners? | | |
| | 1/8" |
| *How many "Adjustment Brackets" are required? | 1 per Assembly | |
| *Where is this "Adjustment Bracket" used? | Adjuster bracket shall not be attached we bolt it to the main assembly after delivery. | |
| *What material should be used to fabricate these parts, Steel A-36? | | |
| Material is A-36 Steel | | |
| Materials |
| *Is it a requirement that all materials for the equipment under this solicitation be of USA origin? |
| Yes |
| Materials |
| *No where on the above drawings is the material of construction specified. We think it is A-36 Steel as stated on item #5 but we require conformation of the same. |
| Material is A-36 Steel |
| *Our welding people looked at the assembly welding requirements. |
They would like clarification for points A,B and C as noted on the attached Sketch weld XX.
| The Government requires these to be 100% welds at 1/8" fillet |
| Corners should be welded 100% where gauge panel item #2 and #4 and #3 and #4 meets. |
| Welding |
| *Are the 1/8" fillet welds noted continuous? |
| YES |
| *We assume the grove weld is 45 degree, as we illustrated ,drawing does not specify details o groove welds |
| 45 Degrees is acceptable |
| *Do you require the groove welds to be ground flush all around? |
| YES |
| Gauge Panel Item #2 |
| *Please specify the size of the radius shown,drawing does not specify a dimension for these radii. |
| R-0.250 same as top plate pedestal assy |
