- Description
- Questions 1-5 Q-1. Need to know sizes of vat, inside and out, as well as associated members, spacing, sizes; type of material like angle, channel, flat etc. welding requirements (full pen, perimeter, etc.) and it has to be clear enough that when we reproduce it we can read the writing. #1-A. 27 ' long, 32" I.D, 8' high, Floor length 16", Exit ramp starts out to top at 16' point, with 24'' rise straight up from floor to exit ramp made of 1/4 plate. 3x3x1/2 angle around outside top,bottom & on corners to include outside of ramp. 2"x 1/4" strap, vertically every 16" from top to bottom,welded on edge or placed on edge of strap for strengthening. This strap can be welded in 6" spacings. 1 stake pocket that acomodate 2"x4" board on the top every 4.' A second row of stake pockets 12" below the top ones. All welding is solid except vertical straps. Uprights under exit ramp are 3" square tubing to include the frame under these uprights Q-2. There is a description in the synopsis that we can not make any sense of its meaning "hide away spreader bar to lift. Middle wall retainers to clamp wall to keep wall straight with 3 ft spikes" We can not determine what this means. #2-A. Disregard Q-3. Reviewing the data sheet and sketch, I do not see where the material is called out. Is it stainless steel? #3-A. No, It is not stainless steel, only 1/4 or 3/8" steel plate. Q-4. We quoted hot rolled steel and prime/paint on the outside only. If the material or paint requirements need to be different, we can adjust our quote. #4-A. No stainless. Please paint inside and out. Q-5. Is the paint only on the outside. #5- A. Cleats on exit ramp need to be 2 1/2'' x 2 1/2'' x 3/8'' angle iron,30'' long & 1' apart going up to exit. With 3 pieces of 1/2" rod cut in 2 1/2'' pieces put under each one to allow drainage under back into vat. Do not any bolts for this. Additional info: Needs lifting eyes in each corner(4) that will acomodate 2 3/8'' tubing lifting device that we have. These lifting eyes should slide down out of the way when not in use. Ideal would be U shaped device made out 3/4'' rod. This portable vat will weigh approx. 8000 lbs. when finished. Submit faxed or emailed quotations to Purchasing Section ag (612) 336-3550, Attention Carol Dingess. Quotations are due by September 14, 2009 by 4:00pm Eastern Time.
