Building 732 Sprinkler System Repairs

AMENDMENT 0001

DATED 8/17/2021

Amendment 0001 is hereby incorporated into SP330021B0002 for the Building 732 Sprinkler System Repairs, DLA Distribution Susquehanna and shall become part of any contract issued.

Amendment 0001 is being issued to answer vendor’s questions.

Question 1: The drawings call for Schedule 10 pipe and Specifications call for Schedule 40 pipe. Please confirm which is to be used.

Answer 1: It is DLA’s standard to use Schedule 40 pipe for all sprinkler piping however, all existing piping within Building 732 was installed with Schedule 10 pipe. Therefore, for this project only, DLA will allow the use of Schedule 10 pipe.

Question 2: I notice pipe is to be painted. Will powder coating of the piping with a red finish be acceptable?

Answer 2: Unfortunately, that will not be acceptable. All sprinkler piping within Building 732 has been painted white and we want to maintain this color for all new piping as well. We would accept a white powder coating finish.

Question 3: The specification calls for all sprinkler system components to be painted. The grooved fittings come with a factory orange color coating. Will this be acceptable?

Answer 3: We are familiar with Victaulic’s color standard, but we want to remain consistent with the existing building piping. All existing piping including fittings has been painted white and so this will be required for this installation as well.

Question 4: Will all pipe hangers also be required to be painted?

Answer 4: In reviewing pictures of the existing installation, we find that most supports for sprinkler piping have been painted white as well. As such, we will require that all supports for new sprinkler piping be painted white.

Question 5: Valve tags and updated hydraulic riser plaques are required. Will the pipe also be required to have pipe labels installed?

Answer 5: Beyond the NFC Code requirement for plaques and signs on any specific features such as “Inspectors Test Valve”, etc., no additional pipe labels will be required.

Question 6: Will earthquake type bracing be required for the new 4” sprinkler mains?

Answer 6: No, seismic design of new sprinkler piping is not required.

Question 7: I see the Bid Bond is required. Will there also be requirements for Payment & Performance Bonds?

Answer 7: Yes

Question 8: I see notes in the specifications regarding system flushing. Will all these systems be required to be flushed/chlorinated?

Answer 8: Specification Section 21 95 00.00 10, Paragraph 3.1.1 indicates “systems that are required to be

DATED 8/17/2021

flushed….” However, in Section 01 11 00, Paragraph 1.4.1, it is indicated that there is no flushing of systems included (or required) in the scope of work for this project. In other words, no flushing is required on this project.

Question 9: The system(s) would be drained and recharged at the end of each work day. Will a fire watch be required while the work is being performed during the day? If so, who is going to be responsible for this?

Answer 9: The quick answer to this questions is yes and yes. A fire watch is required and it will be the contractor’s responsibility. Please reread Specification 21 95 00.00 10 – especially paragraph 3.3 regarding the requirements for sprinkler system impairment.

Question 10: I noticed a 180 day completion schedule from the time of notice to proceed. What is the anticipated “notice to proceed” date?

Answer 10: Once the Performance/Payment bonds and the Certificate Of Liability Insurance have been reviewed and are determined to be acceptable- a Notice To Proceed will then be issued (approximately 14 days after the award).
