Addendum 3 for RFB928300-01

Project Name: CHMHI Voldeng Building Remodel

DAS RFB #: 928300-01

DAS Project #: 9283.00 Date: 11/30/2023

CONTRACTOR QUESTIONS

Q1. Is there a 1 line for the Fire Alarm System. Does the fire alarm connect to the main building via a fiber?

A1. There is no 1-line diagram for the Fire Alarm System of the Voldeng Building. The new fire alarm system needs to be connected and report to the main building via the existing fiber line that runs from the main building to Voldeng through the existing tunnel. The main building has an existing Notifier system. The contractor shall provide a 2” raceway from the entrance of the new tunnel to the new fire alarm panel to be able to reroute the existing fiber from the tunnel entrance to the new panel.

Q2. On sheet C200 LAYOUT AND GRADING NOTES #3. PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING SITE

IMPROVEMENTS WHERE INDICATED: A. ACCESSIBLE BUILDING RAMP. SEE SHEETS C400 AND

C500 FOR DETAILS. Are these two sheets going to be issued?

A2. That note should have said ‘SEE SHEETS S100 AND S101’.

Q3. On sheet C301 typical fence is shown with the correct height, on the typical double gate the height is

4.15’ and 4.0’, and on typical single gate the height is 8’ and 4.0’, could you please clarify?

A3. On both details, the fence height should be 12’-0” and 4’-0”. This has been updated on the revised C301 sheet that is part of this addendum.

Q4. In the stairs throughout the building there are railings and handrails, are these to be painted?

A4. If the stairwell walls are to be painted, then the railings and handrails should be painted.

Q5. Is the wood furring on the 2nd floor ceilings to be removed? On a previous project when left above new ceilings it was considered a fire hazard.

A5 Yes, the wood furring on the 2nd floor ceilings should be removed.

Q6 On sheet A112 KEYNOTES #10 PROVIDE STRUCTURAL LINTEL FOR EXISTING DUCTWORK

OPENING IN EXISTING AND/OR NEW WALLS, CONTRACTOR TO VERIFY SIZE OF EXISTING

DUCTWORK. COORDINATE WITH STRUCTURAL SHEET S000 OR GENERAL LINTEL

REQUIREMENTS. Could you please clarify, during the walk through there was no way to determine how many openings are needed? The ones we could get photos of and size, 12” wall 3’ opening, the schedule on S000 would have us install a W8x10 w/Plate 11”x5/16” there is not enough room above the location, and I would have to remove part of the bearing masonry wall next to install for 8” bearing. This is just one location, how do estimate all locations?

A6 The contractor should include pricing for adding the known lintels and if others are found during construction, then they will need to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Q7. The DRG schedule shows D-2 to have a 4-way pattern, however, the suicide prevention grilles only have a flat face.

A7. Diffuser D-2 is not required to have 4-way pattern.

Q8. Note 7 of the DRG schedule on Sheet M201 calls for a damper but the damper column of the schedule says NO.

A8. Dampers are required per note 7 for D-2, R-1S and R-1R for balancing purposes.

Q9. Note 8 of the DRG schedule calls for ceiling radiation dampers in fire rated ceilings. Where are fire rated ceilings? Please clarify if needed.

A9. The project does not have fire rated ceilings. Ceiling radiation dampers are not required. Note 8 can be deleted.

Q10. For the kitchen hood, the recirculation model only does 300 cfm but the schedule calls for 500 cfm.

A10. KH-1 and KH-2 shall be recirculation type. 300 cfm is acceptable.
