Ricks Center University of Denver HVAC System Upgrade Addendum #2 Page - 2 Questions from the Contractors 1. Q: How are the fire alarm smoke detectors to be handled with the removal of the ceiling during construction to keep a working system in tact? Shall they be left hanging? Removed? Relocated? Is this a free wire system? Piped? Etc… and who is responsible for this? A: The fire alarm system modifications are specified on Sheet E0.01 as design build by the contractor. 2. Q: Who is responsible for taking the F/A system offline and putting it online during construction? A: The contractor is to coordinate with the University. 3. Q: Are the existing fixtures to be removed during construction or shall they be left hanging in place? A: Up to the contractor, who will be responsible for their condition at the completion of construction. 4. Q: Are the grid fixtures supported by wire? A: Based on the age of the building we're not sure. Reinstallation will require independent support. 5. Q: Will there be onsite storage for any fixtures to be removed during the ceiling demolition? A: Coordinate with the University. 6. Q: Will the fire alarm system need to be integrated into the new roof top units and damper units being installed? If so who will be responsible? A: Yes, design-build by contractor. 7. Q: During the walk there was some mention to existing cables in the ceiling that needed to be supported to meet code. Could you please clarify the quantity and type of this cable? Or what is specifically trying to be obtained. A: Existing data cabling above ceiling must be supported independent of the ceiling by the contractor. The cabling existing throughout the school and we have no way to quantify the amount. 8. Q: HWP-1 & 2 and CHWP-1 & 2 are to be provided with VFD’s per the mechanical schedule, do these VFD’s have internal disconnecting means or shall a disconnect be provided? A: Either integral or separate disconnect is acceptable. 9. Q: BCP-1 & 2 show a magnetic starter with a disconnect, is this correct or was the intention to have a combination Hand-Auto-Off installed? A: Provide combination starter and disconnect per revised spec section 20 53 13. ADDENDUM 2 3 July 2012 Ricks Center University of Denver HVAC System Upgrade Addendum #2 Page - 3 10. Q: RF-4 & 5 the mechanical schedule states for a VFD to be installed, the one line shows a disconnect with a magnetic starter, and drawing E103B shows two disconnects and a magnetic starter according to the legend. What is the preferred method of installation if a VFD is to be used? A: To the Code, both VFD and magnetic starters are both motor controllers. As such a disconnect switch is required on the line side of and within sight of the controller. The Code also requires a disconnect switch in sight of the motor. If the controller disconnect is within sight of the motor, then the controller disconnect satisfies both requirements. Provide VFD's per the Mechanical Drawings and Spec's 11. Q: On drawing M221A, does VAV2-2 have HWS&R? The schedule indicates a reheat coil? A: VAV2-2 should be connected to the HWS&R piping with ¾” pipe with all valves and specialties indicated on the piping schematic. This is the save for VAV2-1. 12. Q: What type of glycol is in the existing systems? A: According to existing documentation glycol is not present in the system. 13. Q: What is the volume of the hot and chilled water systems? A: We estimate the volume of the heating system to be 515 gallons and the chilled water system to be 460 gallons. Contractors are required to verify system volumes. Attachments 1.
