While it is not described, can we assume it is the same anchor bolt as the typical horizontal anchor bolt ? Can we also assume the same frequency as the horizontal bolts ?

USACE RESPONSE 1: As shown in the TYPICAL note in detail A3 on S-501, all anchor bolts are the same properties, spacing and length.

QUESTION 2. Drawing S-501 Elevation A3 and detail C8 shows a armor plate anchor bolt at the top of the armor plate and a #6 rebar sharing the same drilled hole. Is this the intent ?

USACE RESPONSE 2: As shown on S-501, detail C8, the spacing of the #6 bars is 12 1/4" which are staggered in between the armor plate top anchors.

QUESTION 3. Please verify if there are limitations to subcontracting to a Large business and Please verify the amount of self performed work which is required to be performed by the small business prime bidder.

USACE RESPONSE 3:

The Contractor shall refer to the Solicitation Section 00 70 00 (Conditions of the Contract), wherein containing the Federal Acquisition Regulation Clause No. 52.219-14 (Dev) “Limitations on Subcontracting

(1) Contracts that have been set aside or reserved for small business concerns or 8(a) participants;

(3) General construction, it will not pay more than 85 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 85 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded; or

(f) A joint venture agrees that, in the performance of the contract, the applicable percentage specified in paragraph (e) of this clause will be performed by the aggregate of the joint venture participants.
