1StructuralThe concrete finish on the bond beams is called out in the Concrete Specification section 3.9.B to knock off the fins and plug the tie holes. Is this sufficient or will rub and dress be required?Exposed surfaces will require rub and dress.Brett Rowan, PE7/10/18
2StructuralS-503The detail for the top of the bond beams in Detail 7 on drawing S-503 indicates a bond beam ( which is constructed prior to setting steel) which has a steel support welded directly to it with no tolerance for the height of the steel plate in the bond beam. Is it acceptable to use shims and seal between the weld plate in the bond beam and the steel tube showing in the detail. There is a similar question on the bond beams, and plates on the other details on sheet S-503.The steel plate is an embed plate at the top of the cast in place concrete beam. ACI tolerances would not require a shim plate. If construction is in excess of tolerances, submit an RFI.Brett Rowan, PE7/10/18

357/11/1808 36 13Specification section 08 36 13 SECTIONAL DOORS in paragraph 1.2. E identifies the acceptable product as “Entrematic Amarr 2002, Florida Produce Approval # 20673.5.” The sectional door approval indicates approval under this code to the IBC-2410-195-24-I Thru 10’-2” wide. The door openings exceed the 10’-2” width. Is the product identified acceptable even though the design width exceeds the IBC indication? Are “or equal” products by other manufacturers acceptable?

377/11/1808 36 13For Spec Section 08 36 13 Sectional Doors: with regard to the sectional doors,16'-2" is generally the widest sectional door you can get with a true Dade NOA. Rolling steel doors can achieve this. The feedback we are getting is that there is no sectional door of this construction type that will meet the wind loads, regardless of manufacturer, due to the size. Please advise.
387/11/18A-601Some of the rooms listed on the finish schedule (A-601) do not correlate with the rooms listed on the floor plan (A-101). For example, Dorm Room (117) appears on the finish schedule and floor plan; however, the finish schedule also lists another room (Telecom – 117) with entirely different finishes. There also is not a Men’s restroom (123) & Women’s restroom (125) shown on the floor plan. Please clarify.
397/11/18A-601Remark #7 on A-601 indicates to provide floor tile PFT-1 at the sink/shower in room 134. Should this be revised so that the sink/shower receives PFT-2 (smaller format tile) instead, in order to achieve a proper slope to the drain?
407/11/18Are the showers to be recessed? The specifications call for a thick-set installation; however, the foundation plan does not illustrate any recesses in the slab. Please clarify.
417/11/18A-402Is “PT-1” on sheet A-402 supposed to be wall tile “WT-1”?
427/11/1809 30 13A-601The tile specifications (093013) and the tile represented on the finish legend (A-601) do not correlate. The specifications indicate that the walls are to receive a “PF-2” which is a 12x12 tile, while the drawings illustrate that all wall tile is to be “WT-1” (a 3x6 tile). Please clarify.
437/11/18A-601Please provide remarks #2, 4, 9, 10, & 11 that are referenced after the basis of designs for the tile on sheet A-601.
447/11/18FX-001On drawing FX001, Note 12 states to provide a MIC mitigation chemical injection system for the fire sprinkler system. The fire sprinkler contractor asking the question has performed multiple projects at FANG and has no knowledge of a concern for MIC in the water supply. Will this be a requirement as the cost for this is substantial? It has been suggested that it would be a more affective design to be installed at the fire pump house suppling the entire underground loop rather than at one building.
457/11/1821 13 13Spec. Section 21 13 13 Wet-Pipe Sprinkler System, paragraph 1.4 a Requires the use of high pressure piping system components listed for 250-psi minimum working pressure. Are pressures maintained above 175 psi as this has not been a requirement with previous projects?

487/12/18C-002; CL-101Reference drawing C-002 Phasing plan note #2 and drawing CL-101. Please clarify. It appears the new building is right on the existing fence line which will have to be removed to construct the new building. There is no temporary fence indicated on any plans which would leave open access to the taxiway during construction of the building. Do we need to provide a temporary security fence, where can it be located and to what standard does it need to be constructed ?
497/12/18Is a City of Jacksonville building permit required?
507/12/18At the prebid it was indicated that JEA (Jacksonville Electric Authority) owns the utilities. If it is JEA the following questions apply. Have the plans been submitted to JEA for review and have they provided an availability number? Who is responsible for water and sewer growth, impact and meter fees? Utility details do not appear to JEA standards, please advise.
517/12/18TY-101Reference drawing TY-101 note #2. Please clarify note. Is the security/access control system being provided by others?
527/16/1808 41 13With reference to specification section 08 41 13 ALUMINUM-FRAMED ENTRANCES AND STOREFRONTS paragraph 1.7 WARRANTY, item B.1. Which requires a 20 year warranty on finishes.
