About this file
This document is an Addendum #1 for the RFB927920-01 project involving WRC Decentralization Phase 2 and Myers Hall Fire Alarm & Sprinklers, issued by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services (DAS). The addendum, dated 2/16/2023, modifies the original bidding documents from 01-10-2023 and provides updates to specifications, drawings, and project details. Key dates include questions being due on February 21, 2023, at 2:00 pm, and bids due on February 28, 2023, at 2:00 pm. The project involves multiple bid packages and comprehensive modifications to mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and sprinkler systems across various building areas, including Myers Hall and other facilities.
The addendum includes significant changes to specifications, drawing revisions, and clarifications on various technical aspects of the project. Notable modifications include updates to fire protection systems, mechanical piping, electrical work, and specific requirements for different building zones. The Construction Manager (Story Construction) will coordinate with hazardous materials contractors for potential asbestos removal. The project involves installing a new dry pipe sprinkler system, fire pump, and associated electrical and mechanical infrastructure. An asbestos survey conducted alongside the project found minimal asbestos content, with only one sample from Cottage 201 Franklin showing 2% chrysotile asbestos, and a lead-based paint analysis returned low lead concentrations.
