95. As per 230002.13.2.3.i.1 Variable Volume units are to include direct airflow measuring devices. Air Valves shall be provided with direct airflow measurement devices (Position feedback is unacceptable) which complies with 23092313 DDC Specification, however M-720 and M721 Detail C1 Note 12 indicates that Air Flow Sensors is to be provided by BAS. Please clarify who should provide the direct airflow measurement devices.

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE REVISED: Air flow sensor shall be provided with the Variable volume units as specified in 23 00 00 and not by BAS. BAS drawings M-720 detail C1 note 12 and M-721 detail C1 note 11 was revised in Amendment 0008.

98. 230000.2.14.6 Controllers for Energy recovery Units (ERU) indicates that the unit manufacturer is to provide an electronically programmable controller and controls, software and programing, however M705 Detail A1 and M705A Sequence of Operations for the ERUs would appear to require the BAS system to provide GPPC controllers, control devices, programming and software. Please confirm these units are to be provided with a full factory packaged control system meeting all sequence of operations requirements.

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE REVISED: ERU shall be provided with a full factory packaged control system. Drawing and sequence was revised in amendment 0008 (Sheets M-705 & M-705A)

103. 230923.1320.2.1.6.1.c, states “Provide one GPPC per air handling unit (AHU). Provide one GPPC to control manifolded exhaust fans systems. Provide one GPPC per bank of HRUs associated each AHU zone.

2.) Notify Base Security of the flyover dates at least 3 business day prior so we have time to pass the information to the teams.

115. Nurse Call System:

A. 2nd Floor - Dental Treatment Areas – there are master consoles in the reception areas which suggests these are patient care units. However, in the treatment rooms to the right (highlighted in the squares), there were no devices called out on the drawing. The written spec states there should be Emergency and Code Blue devices in treatment rooms (see pages 16 & 17).

B. 3rd Floor - A block of rooms is missing devices in the Patient Prep/Induct area.

C. 4th Floor - Mental Health Area – there is one room with a Staff Emergency device. Should all the rooms have these? Also, the Staff Console in the Reception area is not shown.

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE REVISED:

A. A lighted Annunciator (LA) was included in Dental Reception to respond to Emergency Pull cord in TLT 2E24. As a norm Dental Treatment rooms (DNTG1) do not receive Nurse Call devices.

290. With regards to the specification 31.66.13-3.3.2, are alternate forms of installation acceptable provided the installer can furnish a record of experience using the same equipment and the design is verified by load testing? Limiting the installation to a single method of installation, the downward tamper, limits the number of installers to bid the project to one. This technology is patented (and routinely marketed as such), sole-sourcing the project to the patent-holder. Aggregate piers can be installed to the same or better quality using alternate forms of installation equipment. Reference 31 66 13

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: As mentioned in comment 290, spec section 31 66 13 will be modified to include alternate aggregate pier systems such as stone columns. Stone column aggregate piers don’t require crowd-stabilization testing thus it can be waived. The revised spec 31 66 13 will be issued in Amendment 0012.

315. Please clarify what work shown on Drawing ET-609 is to be provided under this contract. The cable ID's in the chart on the right do not appear in the one line on the left.
