LOWER VALLEY TRANSFER STATION <br />RESPONSE TO RFI QUESTIONS - August 1, 2024 <br />sEcrwx <br />DATE RECIMO <br />ff <br />Will QUIESTM <br />FISPON" <br />The GWB products that I would expect to use on a project like this would include: <br />Georgia Pacific 5/8" Type X GW8 at all locations other than what I list below. <br />Georgia Pacific 5/8" Tilebacker — at all locations scheduled to receive wall tile, (Shown in <br />restrooms only to S' AFF.) <br />Georgia Pacific 5/8" Mold Guard paper faced GWB— in wet areas as defined in 0929DO 1.03A. <br />Abuse and/or Impact Resistant GWB—This would only be at specified areas, of which I cannot <br />find. This seems like an unusual product for this type of project, and I would prefer t0 exclude this <br />product unless we can determine where it is needed. <br />Fiberglass Faced GWB such as Georgia Pacific Dens Armour/USG Fiberock Aqua Tough — this <br />would typically be called out in extremely wet areas, or areas where we would be hanging GWB <br />prior to the building being dried in. Or perhaps a high humidity area such as an indoor pool. 1 <br />would prefer to exclude this product unless we can determine where it is needed. <br />092900 3.010.2.a — Calls for Level 5 at all surfaces exposed to view that are to receive paint. <br />Seems expensive and strange given the type of buildings these are, but I will figure a level 5 finish, <br />unless you direct me otherwise. <br />095100—The finish schedules identify ACT-1 at all locations scheduled to receive ACT. The <br />095100 specification identifies 3 different types of ACT. Where do we identify which tile is ACTQ? <br />Is it correct that there is only 1 type of ACT on this project? <br />095100 & 095300 — It may be too late, but we would be able to offer a significant savings on the <br />ACT package if Certainteed ACT comparable products would be acceptable. (If you can confirm <br />the desired ACT product, we can offer a VE deduct if there is a Certainteed comparable tile and <br />grid product if that works for you.) <br />On plan page C8 there is a note saying that there needs to be Thermoplastic Stop Bars at all STOP <br />-- <br />7/25/2024 <br />67 <br />signs.
