SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been modified:

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. Q. Since we are talking about a U.S. Military Installation, doesn't the equipment - according to military standards - has to be manufactured according to U.S. IPEMA standards (CPSC consumer product safety commission/ASTM American society for testing and materials) and certified by TÜV AMERICA, by any Chance?

A. Modification 0006 changes the language for safety standard requirements to require ASTM Standards or

EN Standards, whichever is more stringent. (See PRODUCT SPECIFICATION and ASSEMBLY &

INSTALLATION sections)

2. Q. Is there a tolerance level in height of structures?

A. +/-10%. PRODUCT SPECIFICATION has been amended to indicate the tolerance.

3. Q. What site preparation will be needed?

A. Play Area #21 requires no site preparation. Play Area #18 will require the removal of old/damaged top

(finish) layer of 13 mm thickness. (See ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION section)

4. Q. Safety and security on the job site

A. Safety and security will be in accordance with Base rules. The contractor is responsible for maintaining a safe and secure work area.

5. Q. Calculations for the Rubber Surfacing (CLIN 0003) are higher than being requested in the RFQ. Will that be revised?

A. Yes. The play areas were re-measured. Play Area #18 is measured at 150 sq.m.; Play Area #21 is measured at 205 sq.m.; Total area to be covered is 355 sq.m. The quantity of CLIN 0003 has been revised to reflect the correct total measurement of 355 sq.m.

6. Q. Is a specific color required for the Rubber surfacing?

A. It is requested that color options be included in the quote. (INSTRUCTION TO OFFERORS –

ADDENDUM paragraph (A)(2)(c))

7. Q. Will electricity hook-up be provided?

A. Contractor will need to provide its own portable generator for electricity needs of its equipment/tools.

8. Q. We’re a bit confused because you mix ASTM Standards 1487 with European EN1176. The technical dimensions such as head entrapments, distances etc. are not identical…..Also you can not combine the EN1176 with the American ADA.

A. Modification 0006 changes the language for safety standard requirements to require ASTM

Standards or EN Standards, whichever is more stringent. (See PRODUCT SPECIFICATION and ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION sections)
