BIDDER’S QUESTIONS AND GOVERNMENT REPLY

(Questions that may be of general interest to all Bidders and/or the Government and that are not readily answered by the proceeding changes will appear below. These questions may have been paraphrased or altered to represent several questions regarding the same subject and/or simply revised to clarify and simplify the question(s).

Questions and answers are issued to the bidders “For Information Only” and do not revise the solicitation, plans or specifications.)

Question 1:

1. Is the project phased. 2. Who purchases lights? 3. Is Monaco FP panel required? 4. Explain ES100D.

Answer 1:

1a) One Phase only

2) All lighting fixtures, with the exception of Type P3, are to be contractor purchased.

3) Use of Monaco is the basis of design only.

4) All drawings titled as Deduct Option 1, indicate clouded revisions associated with the reduced square footage of the Banquet Hall.

4a) ES100D is issued as a reference to the reduction of building size and the effect on feeder and branch wiring lengths.

Quantities have not changed.

Question 2: Specification section 133423.16 Fabricated Storage Buildings indicated basis of design by Keystone Structures. Note on drawing indicates metal building enclosure similar to Parkline Inc. One appears to be a preassembled building delivered to site, while the other is a kit building that is required to be assembled on-site.

Please clarify which manufacturer is basis of design.

Answer 2: Provide pump enclosure as specified on the fire protection documents. Specification section 13 34 23 is deleted.

Question 3: Specification section 114400.2.2.1.7 Fire protection systems refers to a wet chemical system pre-engineered in accordance with division 21, section 21 23 00.00 20 dry chemical fire extinguishing for kitchen cabinet. There is no section 21 23 00.00 20. Please provide this section.

Answer 3: Requirements for the kitchen fire protection system can be found in the spec info column of the Equipment List in Section 11 06 40.13.

Question 4: Scheduled key note #9 on S102, lists L6x3 1/2x5/16 as support for mechanical equipment. Detail A1/S531 is similar with a L6x4x3/8. But detail E1/S531 also lists a C6x8.2 as a support for mechanical equipment.

Are both details required at Keyed note #9 on plan?

Answer 4: Detail A1 is intended for support of interior equipment hung from roof structure. The L6 in this detail is for bracing equipment to either wide flange beam or joist when diagonal brace is perpendicular to roof deck span.

This angle does not support the roof deck. The L6 in Keynote #9 is similar to angle shown in detail C1 & C3 on S-

523. Bolt rooftop mechanical equipment to this angle. Blocking may be required in gap between rooftop deck and angle. Detail E1/S-531 is required at rooftop mechanical equipment, showing web stiffener angles to be added at joists when load is not at joist panel point. Channel shown in this detail is not required. See attached detail for clarification.

Question 5: Specification 051200 sect. 2.6.2 lists shop primers SSPC paint 20 or 29, which are zinc rich primers, with an SSPC SP6 blast cleaning (section 2.6.2.1). Paint Specification 099000 section 3.13.1 exterior paint tables lists steel to be cleaned per SSPC-SP6 and primed with an MPI 79 (Alkyd primer). Paint Specification 099000 section 3.13.2 interior paint tables Item C. Architectural Structural Steel, to be a High Performance Urethane MPI107. The High Performance Coatings Specification 099600 lists an SSPC-SP7 brush-off blast cleaning, suggesting this is to be applied over galvanized steel. (SSPC-SP7 has been updated to SSPC-SP16 in the latest standards.) The Exterior material schedule on drawing A603 lists the High Performance Paint as PT-1 thru PT-4 suggesting the Hi-Perf paint are for exterior steel. Please verify what finishes are required for the following items:

a. Roof screening support steel. (exterior exposed)

b. Interior concealed structural steel framing.

c. Interior exposed to view structural steel framing.

d. Exterior concealed structural steel framing.( framing outside of the building heated space, but inside the exterior façade, triangle edge framing S401)

e. Roof top safety anchors Answer 5: Angle to be continuous L8x6x3/8. See attached detail for clarification.

Question 6: Please provide elevation drawings for the triangle edges shown in plan view on S-101 and S-102, whose details are on S-401 A1 & A3. There's no indication on how many of the triangles there are, vertically, nor how tall the areas are.

Answer 6: Top of Triangle edge is defined on architectural plans detail A7/A-313. Triangle formed from HSS and Channels are spaced at 2'-0" vertically for the entire height.

Question 7: Drawing A-203 EXTERIOR WALL PATTERN, wall partial elevation A4/A-203. There is wall AB-1 which has (2) types per face: rock face (AB-1A) and ground face (AB-1B). Also, wall AB-1 which has (4) types of size: 2'-0" x 8"h, 1'-4" x 8"h, 1'-0" x 4"h, and 2'-0" x 4"h.

Answer 7: Exterior Wall Pattern:

AB-1 (Architectural block) Correct, there are two types of finishes; rock face and ground face. Rock face has 4 sizes and ground face has 2 sizes.

AB-2 (Architectural block) Only ground face finish with 4 sizes. This pattern uses the same pattern on AB-1 (shown on A4, E4 on sheet A-203) without the variation of the finishes.

AB-3 (Architectural block) Only chisel face finish with sizes as indicated on detail 3 / LP503 AB-4 (Granite) Only Flame or thermal finish with 4 sizes. This pattern uses the same pattern on AB-1 (shown on A4, E4 on sheet A-203) without the variation of the finishes.

Question 8: Exterior elevation B1/A-201 of drawing A-201, EAST AND WEST ELEVATIONS, 04.20.2020, AMENDMENT #2, has callouts for AB-1, AB-2, and AB-3.

Additionally, AB-2 continues to turn the corner as shown in A9/A-203 and termites at the vertical metal channel reveal that is adjacent to column line 8.

AB-3 as described on the drawings is applied to retaining walls beyond the extent of the building boundary as described in the civil and landscape drawings and on detail 3 / LP503.

Question 9: General note "C" refers to wall type AB-4. Wall schedule on drawing A-603, EXTERIOR FINISH SCHEDULE & DEDUCT OPTION #2, 04.20.2020, AMENDMENT #2 calls for granite wall. Please provide specification and details for granite elevation.

Answer 9: Granite masonry is specified in Section 04 20 00 Unit Masonry with sub-paragraphs including but not limited to 2.2.4.
