ANSWER: Section 2.2.11.1 is correct.

8. QUESTION: 2.5.13 – “The contractor shall ensure that all communication outlet faceplates are provided with the furniture, based on the unique specification on the IT requirements.” Is this something APG will need to source or the Construction Contractor?

ANSWER: There are no demountable wall typicals for this project.

12. QUESTION: Panels: Section 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 refer to both monolithic and stackable panels.
