CONTRACT SPECIALIST

Correct Safety Deficiencies at Loading Dock, IFB Solicitation VA242-17-B-1182 Please see revised VA Response for RFI #8 below:

RFI 8: Please specify what reinforcement is scheduled for the new 8” Thick Concrete Pavement. Plan S303 – Typical Ramp/ Pad shows 4 x 4 W4.0 x W4.0 WWM but the concrete pavement detail does not indicate any reinforcement other than smooth dowels at contraction joints. Please advise what to use for reinforcement in concrete pavement?

REVISED VA REPLY: All bidders must disregard previous AE response provided in Amendment #3 on 11/30/17. The VA requires reinforcement in new concrete pavement. Bidding contractors must provide rebar reinforcement as follows: Provide a minimum of #5 rebar, placed 12 inches on center along the 15’ slab each way. Rebar must be epoxy coated and will require chairs for stability and placement. Dowels are required @ each joint per details on sheet S303.

*Contractors must bid accordingly based on revised VA response to RFI #8 as clarified above.*
