Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document contains responses to pre-proposal inquiries regarding the "Provide full repairs to Building 1372, Coddington Point (CP), referred to as Ripley Hall" opportunity.

• Asbestos Survey: The survey indicates asbestos is only present in mechanical piping gaskets and fire doors. No abatement is required for this project. Suspect materials encountered during renovation will be handled as per standard procedures.
• Occupancy & Work Hours: The building will be occupied except for mid-May through mid-July. During occupied periods, work hours in student/resident rooms are 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM, and in common areas are 7:00 AM - 9:30 PM. Weekend work is allowed in common areas only.
• Cipher Locks: Mechanical push-button cipher locks are required for doors. These are stand-alone devices, not part of a central system. Existing doors can be modified to fit new locks; replacement of doors is not required for bidding purposes.
• CAC Card Readers: The contract includes providing and installing CAC card readers, conduit, wiring, controllers, fiber connections, and programming for two doors, with a central control panel in the Quarterdeck.
• HVAC: Original HVAC load calculations and TAB reports are unavailable. New calculations must be provided per UFC 3-410-01. Temporary HVAC is not required, but work should be phased to minimize occupant impact.
• Fire Alarm: Existing fire alarm devices may be reused if compatible. New smoke detectors are required in the same locations as existing ones. NICET IV certification is required for installation drawings.
• Roof Warranty: Roof warranty information will be provided. Roof curb selection/modification is a design decision, but structural roof changes are not part of the scope.
• Flooring & Wainscoting: Specific office rooms are identified for new flooring. Wainscoting details will be determined during design development, with Koroseal as a suggested vendor.
• Firestopping: All firestopping will be specified by the design-build team. NICET IV certification is required for installation drawings.
• Lightning Protection: The contractor is expected to temporarily disconnect and reconnect the existing lightning protection system as needed for rooftop equipment replacement. Recertification is not required.
• Temporary HVAC: Temporary ventilation is not required during shutdowns.
• Fire Alarm Scope: The replacement of a Gamewell notification system with a radio transmitter has been deleted from the scope of work.

These clarifications address numerous technical and logistical questions, impacting how bidders should price and plan for the project, particularly regarding materials, installation methods, work hours, and specific system requirements.
