QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS RD 2

Q1. Is the ceiling in the wash bay asbestos? If the ceiling is asbestos, what are the base's regulations for removal and containment? (Roof Penetrations) A1. Records indicate asbestos. Yes, in the plaster. Regulations are for using a vendor authorized to make the required penetrations. All penetrations for the roof or side walls shall be in accordance with OSHA 1926.1101 asbestos standards. All vendors and plans for penetrations must be coordinated through LEAD DPW personnel prior to work being performed. The vendor shall be responsible for disposal of all materials, including asbestos, that result from any penetrations.

Q2. What is the plan for the existing concrete trench drain in the wash bay?

A2. The existing trench drain shall remain inside the booth. Design shall be modified to include as the existing trench drain as part of collection drainage.

Q3. The wash bay floor currently slopes to the existing trench drain, what is the plan to accommodate the new proposed center drain in wash bay? Is the contractor pouring new concrete inside the new booth area?

A3. See number 2 answer.

Q4. Does the pipe insulation contain asbestos?

A4. Yes, LEAD records indicate that pipe insulation contains asbestos. LEAD will be responsible for removing all pipes and pipe insulation in the boiler room and in the wash bay.

Q5. Who is responsible for removal of the waste oil tank?

A5. LEAD will be responsible for draining. The vendor will be responsible for removal to a site on the depot specified by LEAD.

Q6. Who is responsible for removal of the radiant heaters in the bay?

A6. LEAD will handle the movement to a new location.

Q7. Are seismic or stamped drawings required for any of the equipment?

A7. No seismic or stamped drawings are not required.

Q8. After reviewing the site there are a number of obstacles that would make the requested booth dimensions difficult and not cost effective to provide. The existing booth after this striping booth only has an inside clearance height of 13' 6". Would an inside dimension height clearance of 14' be acceptable?

A8. After LEAD removes steam pipes and heaters from the wash bay the available height shall be 17’ outside dimension with a minimum 15’6” inside dimension.

Q9. Would an inside dimension width between 16' and 17' be acceptable? The existing beam clearances would make it extremely difficult to fit an 18' ID booth in this space while still meeting the booth requirements.

A9. See answer to #8.

Q10. What is the minimum flow rate for the steam cleaner?

A10. 1 gpm on steam, 4gpm on pressure washing. (4.2.11)

Q11. What length hose shall be provided for the steam cleaner?

A11. 50’ (4.2.11)

Q12. Can you provide the wage determination for this project?

A12. Please see solicitation note 11 for reference. The following verbiage was included: “General Decision Number PA180114, dated 1 June 2018 and is hereby incorporated for construction services involved for the installation of the equipment.”

Q13. What manufacturer and model hybrid steamer unit was the basis of design for this project?

A13. Our only concern is the minimum specifications be met for the purchase description specifications.

Q14. Hybrid Steam Cleaner System (ref. 4.2.11 thru 4.2.11.16)

4.2.11.9 calls for 300-350 degrees steam.

Most commercial steam cleaners manufactured in the US are 250-300 degrees.

Can a unit with 250-300 degrees be substituted?

A14. The building 320 has a 277/480v 4-wire wye service. The booth disconnect will be supplied with this power and will include a separate ground.

Q15. 4.1.5 Concrete for blast booth, is there any known in floor heating, in ground wiring or plumbing.

A15. Yes there is some low voltage wiring. DPW personnel will be available to answer further questions as the time of the installation.

Q16. 3.4 removal of walls, oil tank, boiler, steam lines, and supporting equipment.

a. What type of insulation is on boiler, steam lines. Answer – See Q1.

b. Does the tank have oil in it, how much, who’s responsible to have it drained? Answer – See Q5.

c. During the site visit pictures were not allowed, Can we be supplied with pictures of the room and overhead piping. Answer – LEAD is removing all piping. See Q4.

Q17. 3.6 DST Office, During the site visit we where not allowed in the DST office, The Supplied drawing in the RFQ shows the Make-up Air Unit for the Blast room ductwork going thru the DST office, How wide is the office, What type and how high is the ceiling? Can we be supplied with pictures of the room and overhead piping.

A17. Penetration shall be above the office for this location.

Q18. 3.12 Electrical power, Spec states, 480V , 3-phase, 3-wire, with separate ground.

Can we get a 5 wire system, 480V, 3-phase, neutral, and ground, for the 277 volt booth lights?

A18. 4 wire WYE, 3 plus a ground.

Q19. There are 2 heaters in the Blast Booth Bay the will have to be removed. Who will remove them and do they need to be relocated? Can we be supplied with pictures of the room and overhead piping.

A19. Answered in #6

Q20. The Supplied drawing in the RFQ shows that in order to get to the equipment room to turn on and service the equipment the operator will have to exit thru other bays and go outside to access the room. Do we what to add doors from the Blast booth directly into the equipment room?

A20. LEAD will investigate this suggestion outside of this solicitation. If a door is added it will be handled by

LEAD.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Questions and Answers Q1. 4.2.8.2 “Heated air makeup”

a. What is the required booth temperature and the expected temperature gradient?

b. Air to be recirculated in the winter?

A1. Answers:

a. The expected temperature is 70°F

b. Ventilation system is to be single pass, not recirculated.

Q2. “sound deadening foam shall be used on the containment room walls and ceiling”.

a. Foam is to be exposed on the walls and ceiling?

b. Most foams are toxic when burned – we suggest “rockwool” be installed on the interior of the Walls and ceiling. This is an excellent product of noise abatement, insulation and is “green” technology.

A1. Answers:

a. Foam is to be enclosed on ceiling or walls in either aluminum or stainless steel (4.2.10 Containment room specifications)

b. Foam is enclosed and will not be near any potential flame source. Also, booth will include sprinklers.

No change to PD will be made.

Q3. 4.2.10.2 “20 Ga stainless steel shall be used on the bottom 6’ of the inside containment walls in the blasting area?

a. 20 gauge is very thin material and will not hold up long term to 40,000 psi water blasting - we recommend The complete booth be made from 11 gauge galvanized steel and coated in the high wear areas with 250 mils of Polyurea. This also allows – subsequent coats verse major metal / structure replacement.

A3. Answers:

a. Stainless steel has performed well in current similar operations at Letterkenny and other army water blast operations. No change will be made to the PD.

Q4. 4.2.10.3 “3” of sound deadening foam center with aluminum sides for walls and 6” of sound deadening foam center with aluminum sides shall be a minimum amount utilized on the enclosure”

a. Confused – is it 3” per panel – two panels back to back to make 6” minimum?

b. We recommend the booth be made from 11 gauge galvanized steel, prime coated with a 2 part epoxy primer and top coated with A marine grade two part polyurethane. The insulation would be a 5” rock wool.

A4. Answers:

a. 3” of foam is required in the walls and 6” of foam is required in the ceiling. The PD will be modified to clarify.

b. This system has been operating successfully at Letterkenny and other Army locations. No change will be made to the PD.

Q5. “with the exception of the stainless steel on the inside containment area, all aluminum on the walls shall be painted white with a water resistant coating”. a. thickness of aluminum should be defined?

A5. Standard aluminum composite construction is acceptable (as described in the PD). Wall performance must meet or exceed performance standards for walls or ceiling panels on standard industrial booths.

c. Whatever paint is put on the water will not hold up to the blasting – we suggest a ¼” polyurea – which is very water resistant.

Answer: Forward a copy of the recommended coating for review. It will be reviewed by Letterkenny’s production engineering group for acceptability.

Q6. 4.4.14.12 “epoxy coating shall comply with the requirements of AASHTO M 254 Type B”

a. In lieu of epoxy floor coating we request the use of a Polyurea performance coating.

A6. Any request for an alternate process would have to be submitted for approval from Letterkenny’s public works engineering group for consideration. The alternate finish will be evaluated but may not be approved.
