Amendment 0001 10/28/2016

Question 1:

We want to verify if there is an existing pitch in the roof deck. When you refer to plan page A-100 the roof plan, the main roof area (Library Roof Area) says "Structural Concrete Slab 1/8" in 12", with a 1/4" in 12 Roof Slope note above this. Does this mean we are adding an 1/8" Per ft tapered system to achieve 1/4" per ft slope? The same question applies to the Lobby Roof & Museum Roof areas, if there is existing 1/8" slope at all areas and we are adding tapered to achieve 1/4" per ft slope after the re-roof.

Answer 1:

Based on the existing building drawings (bid reference drawings) and as noted on contract drawing A-100, the existing structural deck at the Library roof area and the Museum roof area slope at about 1/8” in 12”, and the existing structural deck at the Lobby roof area is flat. Per contract drawing A-100, final roof slope shall be ¼” in 12”. This will include tapered insulation plus any existing scope on the structural deck.

Question 2:

On page 5 of 29 on the Solicitation Package, Section F. Mentions start date of May 2017. I want to confirm that this is the intended start date, and if so are we to price it with today's pricing or try to forecast pricing for next May.

Answer 2:

Yes, the “May 2017 after graduation” in the Solicitation Package is the on-site start date and is correct.

The contractor’s bid shall include cost for completing the work per the solicitation package including on-site construction schedule. The date for R-day, Monday June 28, 2017 is incorrect. The date for R-day is Monday, July 3, 2017.

Questions 3:

Can we get clarification on any test cuts that may have been done? (Thickness of existing material, composition etc.)

Answer 3:

The roof assemblies base on previous test cuts are as follows:

Silver coating on black modified bituminous membrane.

Polyisocyanurate insulation board – about 4” thick, thickness varies at crickets and edges.

Concrete deck.

Question 4:

There are several details that show at the edge & parapet wall "Continuous 2X Pressure Treated wood blocking mechanically attached to concrete deck." We assume that there is some existing blocking, are we to add on to existing blocking as needed? Or is all blocking to be new?

Answer 4:

Remove all existing wood blocking and replace with new pressure treated wood per bid drawing details.

Amendment 0001 10/28/2016

Question 5:

I have looked in the SOW and did not see anything that mention the size of the ISO board can you please clarify the size you are looking for and an R-Value?

Answer 5:

Per drawing A-100 the elevations of the existing roof deck and the elevations of the new roof are giving.

Based on these elevations, the minimum total thickness of the insulation plus cover board is 4" at the low point and increases in thickness to maximum at the high points, (8" to 13.5" see A-100 for elevations and locations).

Question 6:

Why are you asking for a vapor barrier on the deck?

Answer 6:

Vapor barrier is required on this project per the bid documents.
