7. Pre-Proposal Inquiry Responses

PPI

Page Section Paragraph Question Response

3 (updated response)

Site plans appear to show gas service around the area of work. Can gas be utilized for heating and water heating? Everything in the RFP appears to be direct to 100% electric.

Baseline LCCA was designed to be 100%

Electric. Per UFC 1-200-

02 Change 03, Section 4-2, while the initial baseline

LCCA is prepared during

RFP development, the

UFC explicitly mandates:

"refining the LCCA at each design submittal, as well as during construction if there are significant changes to the system."

If AE-2 submitted building systems that are different from those prescribed in the RFP, AE-2 must submit a detailed proposed alternative, with supporting LCCA data, for

Government evaluation during submittal process. If the AE-2 needs to resubmit an LCCA, follow the D-B-

B procedures.

If AE-2 chooses to propose an alternative system that increases first costs, supporting documents must be submitted in accordance with the above paragraph. However, the contractor is required to provide the systems prescribed in the RFP.

Deviations are at the

Government’s discretion, and no change orders for increased first costs will be issued to the Contractor-elected deviations unless formally accepted by the

Contracting Officer.

9 Is PV solar to be excluded?

Please see the Initial HPSB

Checklist and the Initial

LCCAs for the energy systems, renewable energy, and Solar Hot Water provided with Amendment

0004.

10 (updated response)

Typically for new buildings, UFC1-200-02 requires an LCCA to be performed in order to select an HVAC system type. Since the system types are spelled out in the RFP, will an LCCA be required?

Yes, an LCCA is required.

The system outlined in

ESR_D30 serves as a representative model to demonstrate a viable solution for the project's scope.

11 483 sustainability

This paragraph requires

30% energy use reduction over baseline building. With HVAC systems spelled out in the

RFP, in order to achieve those savings, the use of

Solar PV array may be required, but those appear to be omitted in the RFP.

Solar PV is required to be provided in accordance with the annual production rate referenced by UFC 1-

200-02 (refer to IgCC

2018) when LCCE as a standalone system. When considering the 30% reduction below baseline, PV may be employed to reach the 30% requirement if the whole building strategy is found to be

LCCE. Note that the system analysis must be provided for the min.

amount required by UFC, but the whole building amount of PV is not limited to the min. amount, a larger array may be provided to improve the cost/kW which may prove beneficial to the whole building LCCA. In accordance with ASHRAE

90.1-2019, PV may not be used to achieve more than

5% of the energy savings

(see ASHRAE 90.1 for specifics) to meet the requirements of ASHRAE

90.1, but this 5% limit is not applied to the required

30% savings below baseline.

Lateral supports must be able to provide adequate resistance to the supported elements to prevent damages of the pipe fittings during earthquake events. Similarly vertical supports stiffness must be assured to support potential vertical movement of the pipelines during earthquake, to prevent damage of the supported systems. These requirements apply to the electrical conduits and their connections.

Design of the utility lines/equipment support must account maximum local deflections as well as in building as whole under extreme load conditions, to prevent fittings and connections damages under such conditions.

100 Apparatus Bay will be heated with electric infrared heaters. Will they operate 24/7 so that the bay can be considered heated, or will they only operate when occupied and therefore the apparatus bay might freeze, which will require a dry-pipe sprinkler system.

Electric infrared heaters must be thermostatically controlled to prevent the bay from ever dropping below freezing.
