| 9/4/2017 |
| 9/5/2017 |
| M&H - No insulated metal panels on PEMB roof. Roof material per 13 49 19 |
| 59 |
| 8/30/2017 |
| If so, detail 3/A-512 seems to call out for metal deck with rigid insulation at these locations. Please clarify. |
| 8/31/2017 |
| 9/4/2017 |
| 9/5/2017 |
| M&H - PEMB roofing and insulation should be as indicated in specification section 13 49 19. |
| 60 |
| 8/30/2017 |
| Would it be acceptable to provide 4” insulated metal panels in lieu of metal deck and rigid insulation? The insulated metal panel would provide a higher R value and have a thinner profile. |
| 8/31/2017 |

| Paragraph 2.1 – top running crane section references CMAA #70 which applies to double girder cranes. Since the crane on this project is a single girder crane, should CMAA #70 be changed to CMAA #74 everywhere in the specifications? |
| 8/31/2017 |
| 9/4/2017 |
| 9/5/2017 |
| M&H - Per paragraph 2.1, CMAA 70 Class C per specifications |
| 63 |
| 8/30/2017 |
| Paragraph 2.3.1.3 (Micro-Drives) notes adjustable frequency controls which are required per paragraph 2.4.2. Micro speed control can be achieved with adjustable frequency controls. It is not required to have a separate micro-drive consisting of a motor, gear, and clutch for hoist, trolley, and bridge. It seems redundant to have the micro-drive and the adjustable frequency controls. It would be more cost effective to remove the micro-drives. Is this acceptable? |
| 8/31/2017 |
| 9/4/2017 |

| This is to suggest you push the bid back a week for the Moffett project. We are calling subcontractors trying to get some interest in the project, but since it is bidding the day after Labor Day no one is willing to look at it. This is going to lead to less competition which leads to higher pricing. |
