Holloman Question Set #3 Appendix H-VRC

Question 1: 3.1.1.5 says the VRC shall be the appropriate height to interface with the existing mezzanine but no mezzanine dimensions are given. In Appendix I it says the mezzanine is 12’. I would like to confirm the clear height and deck height of the mezzanine.

Answer: The VRC will replace an existing unserviceable one using the same footprint as shown in the picture in the Cover PD. The deck height of the mezzanine is 12’, as the VRC will be mounted on the outside of the mezzanine, the clear height should not factor into the design.

Appendix I – Incline Conveyor Question 2: 3.2.1.2 Specifies 150 lbs per square foot capacity. Is it supposed to be 150 lbs per linear foot?

Answer: 150 lbs per square foot is correct.

Question 3: 3.2.2.2 Mentions gravity conveyor, is this invalid?

Answer: Reference to “gravity” roller has been deleted and now just references conveyor.

Question 4: 3.2.2.5.1 Specifies slider bed, is a slider bed actually required? In previous jobs roller bed has been provided due to the capacity asked for. Is a roller bed acceptable?

Answer: Roller beds are acceptable. Appendix I has been updated to reflect this.

Question 5: 3.2.2.6 Specifies thru hex shafts with hog rings and spring loading. This is a contradiction.

Which is actually required?

Answer: Reference to spring loaded has been removed.

Question 6: 3.2.2.15 Specifies slider bed 180 degree curve conveyor. As with 3.2.2.5.1 a slider bed is not available at this capacity. Is a roller bed acceptable?

Available installation times are Monday-Friday from 8:00-16:30 as shown in the Contractor

12 March 2018

Information sheet; however, additional times can be discussed at the Post Award. Most bases are willing to accommodate additional time on site but cannot be guaranteed.

Question 9: What is the earliest that teardown & removal can begin after award?

Answer: There is no restriction on start date; however, each building is an active Air Force building that must maintain capabilities during removal/installation. Phasing is discussed at the Post Award;

but if new materials are ready to be installed removal of the old systems can theoretically begin as early as desired.
