20. Please Clarify if any structural drawings, calculations, or prior assessments of the existing roof framing are available, as none are indicated in the Basis of Design. (Response: No original structural drawings or calculations for the existing roof framing are available. A field survey of existing conditions was conducted as part of the project; however, access was limited and field measurements were restricted to observable conditions without destructive investigation.
