- Description
- 1. Amendment No. 1 to Solicitation Document No. A11PS01537 is issued and posted on fbo.gov, as follows: a. Section C SOW is replaced with document titled "Revised 09-09-2011 / SOW".b. Drawing are provided under Section C. 2. Response to questions is provided. RE: Amendment 001 Question 1: On the ornamental iron fence the posts are called out as 2.5"x2.5" 14 gauge. The double swing gates are going to be too large to be supported by this size post. What size post would you like to use for the gates? RESPONSE: there are no double swing gates, only double rolling gates that is 32' in length. Question 2: The scope of work calls for a total of 2240' of fence and gates. After measuring the site we came up with a total of 2366' of fence and gates. 635' of iron fence and gates as well as 1731' of chain link fence and gates. RESPONSE: The SOW calls for 840 LF of wrought iron fencing on the front of the campus. The backside will be 1,400 LF of chain link fence. A revised drawing is attached. Front side of campus contains (126 + 182 + 20 + 252 = 580 LF). On the sides from each corner go 130 LF to the south. The total on wrought iron is 840 LF. From where the wrought iron ends ( 198 + 341 + 170 + 292 + 184 +215 = 1,400 LF). These measurements are not exact but can be adjusted to avoid building or trees. See attached site layout. Question 3: Are you requesting razor wire on the chain link? RESPONSE: No razor wire on this project. Quesiton 4: The scope of work calls for (7) gates for vehicles and walk through passage gates. (4) rolling gates and (3) walk gates. There are actually (10) gates. The iron fence has (5) gates: (1) 18' wide double swing gate, (1) 28=9' wide double swing gate, (1) 20' wide double swing gate, (1) 6' wide walk gate and (1) 4' wide walk gate. The chain link fence has (5) gates: (2) 20' wide double swing gates, (2) 4' wide walk gates and (1) 5' wide walk gate. RESPONSE: The front side of the campus near the parking lot, there are:20' vehicle wrought iron rolling gate20' student drop off wrought iron rolling gate32' vehicle double rolling wrought iron gate.4' pedestrian wrought iron gate - east side 20' vehicle chain link rolling gate - east side4' pedestrian chain link gate - southwest side4' pedestrian chain link gate -west side. School will furnish padlocks. Question 5: The scope also asks for spring loaded self-closing hardware on the walk gates. This would be difficult to accomplish unless you use a sealed bearing hinge which is expensive and not specified. Are the gates to self-latch as well or simply close to a gate stop? Is there any specific latch requested, or something that is simply lockable? RESPONSE: Close to gate stop on all pedestrian gates. Gates are to be self -closing using the most efficient and economical means available. Question 6: The posts and pickets were specified for the iron fence, but the two horizontal rails were not. The standard would be 1 ?' X 1 ?" 16 gauge. What t is the spacing on the pickets? 6" is standard. Given the gates sizes above I would suggest larger posts than what is called for on the gates. Please advise. RESPONSE: Go with the standard on the two horizontal rail, 1.5" x 1.5" 16 gauge. San Simon is an elementary school, so spacing on picket is to be 5" on center. Question 7: There is no mention of the size or number of horizontal rails for the ornamental iron fence. They are typically 2 rails that are 2"x2" 14 gauge tubular steel. Can you tell us what will be required for the rails? RESPONSE: See answer in question 6. Question 8: The footage as measured at the site visit varies substantially from the contract documents. Will we use the contract quantities or the quantities measured during the site visit? RESPONSE: The SOW calls for 840 LF of wrought iron fencing on the front of the campus. The backside will be 1,400 LF of chain link fence. A revised drawing is attached. Front side of campus contains (126 + 182 + 20 + 252 = 580 LF). On the sides from each corner go 130 LF to the south. The total on wrought iron is 840 LF. From where the wrought iron ends ( 198 + 341 + 170 + 292 + 184 +215 = 1,400 LF). These measurements are not exact but can be adjusted to avoid building or trees. Question 9: The picket spacing on the ornamental iron fence is not called out. They are typically 5" on center for an elementary school. This will leave a 4.25" gap between pickets. Will this be the required spacing? RESPONSE: Go with 5 inch on center. Question 10: There are areas where the posts will be on existing concrete sidewalks. Will we be required to core drill holes for the posts or will plated posts be acceptable? RESPONSE: Plated post is acceptable. Question 11: There is some clearing of trees on the south property line. Will that work be done by the school? RESPONSE: This is a contractor responsibility. See SOW item D.2
