- Amendment Two (2) HHSI161200800059C The following technical changes are hereby made to the specifications section: PART I LOCATION ESTABLISHMENT: DELETED 1. In the Performance Specification, the first paragraph of Section 2.02.G.2.A on page PS-19 should read as follows: The comfort air conditioning shall be designed and installed in accordance with the IMC, ASHRAE Standards, and any local or state supplemental codes or regulations having jurisdiction. The system shall include heat pump(s) or combination air condition/heating units as required for the building and be fully automatic. HVAC units may be heat pumps or electric cooling with electric heating. HVAC units shall be sized based upon the following design conditions for the selected site. 2. In the Performance Specification, Section 2.02.I.B on page PS-23 should read as follows: A. Contractor shall install 2" by 4" telephone/IT boxes at locations indicated on the plan set. B. Contractor shall install 3/4" conduit connected to the telephone/IT boxes running above the ceiling with pull strings inside the conduit. 3.REMOVE COMPLETELY: Scope of work for VOIP Telephone/IT specifications from the spec package. 4. In the Performance Specification, please delete Section 2.02.I.A.L on page PS-22, as that paragraph conflicts with the telephone/IT requirements above. 5. During the Pre-Bid, we were asked about fire flow. We cannot obtain flow data, as there is not a fire hydrant nearby. Please include the following: a. Contractor shall design the fire sprinkler system using the following available factors. The water storage tank has a bottom elevation of 4695 ft, a diameter of 20 ft, and an overflow height of 44.5 ft. The clinic has an average ground elevation of approximately 4676 ft. Flow data is unavailable. 6. During the Pre-Bid, we were asked about the overhead exam light in the Trauma Room. The exam light will be removed from the clinic with the demolition. No new overhead exam light is needed due to the use of hand-held exam lights.
