The following have been added by full text:

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS AMD 0003

Solicitation No. W911XK20R0011 Amendment 0003

Remaining Questions and Answers:

1. Question: Obermeyer gate indicates a compressor air header. There is no compressed air piping or compressor schedule, please clarify

Government Response: Obermeyer will be providing all the major block components via Government Furnished Materials, however the contractor will be responsible for connecting those items. Buried service compressor piping shall be sch10 welded stainless steel, see amended specification Section 22 15

14.00 40 for pipe and fittings. See amended sheet C105 for approximate route, sizes and length. The obermeyer control panel will be provided by the owner, along with the compressor package and associated valves. Shop drawings of provided equipment and layouts will be available upon contract award.

2. Question: Can you please provide Storm Sewer Profiles that is not shown on page (C -209). For all the proposed storm sewer on this project.

Government Response: See amended sheet C209 for a pipe table for the remaining pipes not shown in profile, for size and length for the purposes of bidding.

3. Question: We have concerns with this river crossing being so short the 278’ of 16” SDR9. With this profile going from an elevation of 590 down to an elevation of 560 and back to an elevation of 591 in such a short distance creates a problem. The bend radius needed on our drill stem would be a 337’ radius. The minimum allowable bend radius for drill stem needed for this size of bore is a 600 ft radius. This is with ideal ground conditions. We are wondering if it is at all possible to lengthen this bore out to at least 375 ft and dig an entry ramp to move the machine farther into the ground to allow for a larger radius?

Government Response: Some accommodations in depth of bury and bore pit dimensions can be accommodated for individual pieces of equipment, however the overall length and alignment of the watermain is not subject to significant changes due to other size and real estate limitations.

If a contractor needs to acquire additional real estate to accommodate different means and methods to install the waterline than the contractor can obtain that real estate in accordance with spec section 01 10 10 at no cost to the government.

4. Question: Pioneer Bridges has submitted company information to be consider for pre-approval as a bidder for the pedestrian bridge.

Government Response: Pioneer Bridges has been pre-approved as a manufacturer for the pedestrian bridge. All other performance and aesthetic requirements for this structure will remain in place. See amended Specification 10 72 00

W911XK20R0011

5. Question: Art Thureson, Inc. has submitted company information to be considered for pre-approval as a bidder for the pedestrian bridge.

Government Response: Art Thureson, Inc. has been pre-approved as a manufacturer for the pedestrian bridge. All other performance and aesthetic requirements for this structure will remain in place. See amended Specification 10 72 00

Wind load shall be considered in accordance with AASHTO Signs and Luminaires, but in no case will the wind load be taken as less than 35 pounds per square foot. The wind load shall be applied horizontally at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the structure.

The wind loading shall be considered both in the design of the lateral load bracing system and in the design of the truss vertical members, floor beams and their connections.

3.1.4.2 Overturning Forces

The effect of forces tending to overturn structures shall be calculated assuming that the wind direction is at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the structure. In addition, an upward force shall be applied at the windward quarter point of the transverse superstructure width. This force shall be 20 pounds per square foot of deck.

3.1.5 Top Chord/Railing Loads

The top chord, truss verticals, and floor beams shall be designed for lateral wind loads (per section 3.1.4.1) and for any loads required to provide top chord stability as outlined in Section 3.3.6; however, in no case shall the load be less than 50 pounds per lineal foot or a 200 pound point load, whichever produces greater stresses, applied in any direction at any point along the top chord or at the top of the safety system (42" or 54" above deck level), if higher than the top chord.

3.1.6 Load Combinations

The load combinations shall follow AASHTO LRFD .

It shall be the responsibility of the foundation engineer to determine any additional loads (i.e. earth pressure, stream force on abutments, wind loads other than those applied perpendicular to the long axis of the bridge, etc.) and load combinations required for design of the abutments.

3.1.7 Design Limitations

3.1.7.1 Vertical Deflection

The vertical deflection of the main trusses due to service pedestrian live load shall not exceed the limits specified in AASHTO Pedestrian .

The deflection of the floor system members (floor beams and stringers) due to service pedestrian live load shall not exceed the limits specified in AASHTO Pedestrian..

Deflection limits due to occasional vehicular traffic shall not be considered.

SECTION 10 72 00 Page 13

3.1.7.2 Horizontal Deflection

The horizontal deflection of the structure due to lateral wind loads shall not exceed the limits specified in AASHTO Pedestrian .

3.1.7.3 Vibration

Vibration of the structure shall not cause discomfort or concern to users. Except as specified herein, the fundamental frequency in a vertical mode without live load shall be greater than 3.0 hertz. In the lateral direction, the fundamental frequency of the bridge shall be greater than 1.3 hertz. If the bridge cannot satisfy these limitations in the vertical direction, the bridge may be proportioned to satisfy the following criteria:

f >= 2.86 ln(180/W) Where:

f = the fundamental frequency in the vertical direction (Hz) W = the weight of the supported structure, including only dead load (kips)

From bridge design and fabrication experience, bridges with spans between 90 and 110 feet with concrete decks have exhibited vibration problems. To address this issue, the previous equation is limited and a fundamental frequency of at least 2.6 hertz must be met in the vertical direction when the bridge has a span in the 90 to 110 feet range and a concrete deck.

3.1.7.4 Minimum Thickness of Metal

The minimum thickness of all structural steel members shall be 1/4" nominal and be in accordance with the AISC Manual of Steel Constructions' "Standard Mill Practice Guidelines". For ASTM A500 and ASTM A847 tubing, the section properties used for design shall be per the Steel Tube Institute of North America's Hollow Structural Sections "Dimensions and Section Properties".

3.1.8 Governing Design Codes / References

Structural members shall be designed in accordance with recognized engineering practices and principles as follows:

3.1.8.1 Structural Steel

Shall be in accordance with AASHTO Pedestrian .

3.1.8.2 Welded Tubular Connections

American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials / American Welding Society (AASHTO/AWS) and the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC).

All welded tubular connections shall be checked, when within applicable limits, for the limiting failure modes outlined in AASHTO or in accordance with the "Manual of Steel Construction: LRFD; (Load Resistance Factor Design)" as published by the American Institute of Steel Construction

(AISC).

SECTION 10 72 00 Page 14

3.1.8.3 Wood

American Institute of Timber Construction (AITC), the U.S. Forest Products Laboratory, and the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA).

Sawn lumber shall be designed in accordance with the ANSI/AF&PA NDS, "National Design Standard for Wood Construction", as published by the American Forest & Paper Association or the "Timber Construction Manual" as published by the American Institute of Timber Construction (AITC). Design properties for naturally durable hardwoods shall be in accordance with "Tropical Timbers of the World", as published by the U.S. Forest Products Laboratory.

3.1.8.4 Top Chord Stability

Structural Stability Research Council (SSRC), formerly Column Research Council.

The top chord shall be considered as a column with elastic lateral supports at the panel points. The critical buckling force of the column, so determined, shall exceed the maximum force from dead load and live load (uniform or vehicular) in any panel of the top chord by not less than 50 percent for parallel chord truss bridges or 100 percent for bowstring bridges. The design approach to prevent top chord buckling shall be as outlined by E.C. Holt's research work in conjunction with the Column Research Council on the stability of the top chord of a half through truss. See Appendix A for the calculation of the spring constant C and the determination of an appropriate K factor for out-of-plane buckling.

In addition, for the dead load plus vehicle load combination, the spring constant "C" furnished by the transverse "U-Frames" shall not be less than "C" required as defined by:

C required = 1.46 Pc / L where Pc is the maximum top chord compression due to dead load plus the vehicle load times the appropriate safety factor (1.5 for parallel chord truss bridges or 2.0 for bowstring bridges) and L is the length in inches of one truss panel or bay.

For uniformly loaded bridges, the vertical truss members, the floor beams and their connections (transverse frames) shall be proportioned to resist a lateral force of not less than 1/100k times the top chord compressive load, but not less than .004 times that top chord load, applied at the top chord panel points of each truss. The top chord load is determined by using the larger top chord axial force in the members on either side of the "U-frame" being analyzed. For end frames, the same concept applies except the transverse force is 1% of the axial load in the end post member.

For bridges with vehicle loads, the lateral force applied at the top chord elevation for design of the transverse frames shall not be less than 1% of the top chord compression due to dead load plus any vehicle loading.

The bending forces in the transverse frames, as determined above, act in conjunction with all forces produced by the actual bridge loads as determined by an appropriate analysis which assumes that the floor beams are "fixed" to the trusses at each end.

NOTE: The effects of three dimensional loading (including "U-frame"

SECTION 10 72 00 Page 15 requirements) shall be considered in the design of the structure. The "U-frame" forces shall be added to the forces derived from a three dimensional analysis of the bridge.
