Doesn't it make sense to install doube doors in the connector for not only construction but for permanent access? How will the courtyard be maintained if you can't get into it? Can existing brick sidewalls take lateral pressure from gravel fill against it if we use soils to elevate the slabs in Buildings G, H, and J ??? Can onsite stone/gravel material be used for interior structural fill? Provide structural details on how over framing is configured in K and M. Confirm no gypcrete is needed in J and M now. The gas company is requesting the following clarifications: How many has meters do we have? Gas company recommends one. The two generators should be fed from the base building per the gas company. If you have separate meters for generators they would charge a demand fee since it's not use very much. See attached gas company questions with initials for each company to review: BSC- Town approved utility site plan showing location of gas mains and service risers. Plans must be stamped by town or a letter stating plans of date. BSC - Plans should show the number of meters at each service riser. BSC- A plan that identifies the site location on the street. ( see site plans) PB- The average square foot of each of the building/apartment/home. Drwg R.3 divide 100,088/73 units? 1,371 SY? Assume you use gross SF? Please confirm. If applicable- How many apartment units or homes will be constructed. (73) A- Number of gas meters needed. (1) ? A- List of gas fired equipment, Btu's and delivery pressure needed for equipment. (Will provide drawing P1 .1) BSC- Will there be a gas fired generator? On it's own meter? Provide BTU input and delivery pressure for the gas fired generator.( need to show added second generator) MC- If your equipment is currently operating on propane or oil please provide the gallons used over the last two years. MC- Will there be phases to your project? MC-How many years do you expect the project to take? ( 15 months) (The natural gas agreement will provide the number of minimum meters needed with in a timeframe. If you do not meet the requirement, there could possibly be a penalty to make whole.) MC- Your time frame of construction should tell me when you will need natural main, gas services and when you expect the meters to be turned on. MC- Let me know if you will be using natural gas for construction heat. If so the BTU input for the temp heaters. Address and Name of Customer (if customer is an LLC, the entity must be registered with the State of CT Sec. Of State). Billing Address. (provide one if it will it be different from site location). A natural gas easement will be needed if there are proposed gas mains being installed. Please provide the name of your Attorney and Surveyor (Point of contact, address and telephone number). Please provide an A2 Survey. 1)There would appear to be no permanent access below building M first floor. Is the reason it's in a flood zone and will not be used at all? If there is another reason should we install a permanent bulkhead for access at the old ramp to the basement or install at the other end of the building? 2)I also don’t see any heat called for and concern about plumbing waste line freezing. Should you specify heat trace? If we install heat trace access will be needed. 3)The drawings doesn’t specify after the ramp is removed how to close up the existing foundation opening, please show details. 4)The basement sub slab calls to be infilled and a new poured slab. In order to save money can we leave the slab as is and not place new concrete? If new slab is required confirm what elevation to pour to. 5)Sprinkler company is using NFPA rule that requires sprinkler coverage in the basement not NFPA-R. We are planning to install a dry system, we need to discuss placement of equipme for the dry system. Again permanent access will be required. Please clarify. There is an existing 8" sprinkler service that was installed approx. 1989 and enters the pump house off building A Can this service be reused and extended into building B? See attached permit application and attached picture. You can see the new line far right of the picture before the backflow preveter. There are numerous locations of failed or rottted beams. The current location is Building A level 2. We suspect this could be an ongoing issue as more areas are now open and become known as demolition has started, however we can't wait until it's all completed. Yantic River Consultants wrote a scour report about the helical pile installation and associated work. Should you contact them about us starting the helical piles October 1st? Should they or someone else witness the installation and observe? Should the grout bags after placement be covered with riprap? Structural drawing S3.3 refers to civil drawings for backfill of grout bags, but cannot find information. This is time sensitive and needs quick turn around, pile work is scheduled to start. In an effort to reduce the construction cost of the project to a level acceptable to the owner, the V/E consideration of changing the nature of the Heat Pump units has been proposed for a substantial cost savings, inclusive of the ellimination of the ductwork. If selected these units would require a vertical space in all units in the living room area. Please update the Ejector Pump Fixture load count. The last revision of 2/22/19 indicated 50 units + common area fixtures. The present count appears to be 59 units (1 studio, 30 1 BR, & 26 2BR units). Attached is the 2/22/19 Loading sheet, along with the marked up Unit Mix R.3 sheet indicating the respective gravity and ejector loads. Please confirm and revise. In addition, please indicate the estimated Water Consumption for the project: Domestic & Irrigation WPCA requests the following: 1. Correct (on the plans) the Domestic Water Line connection on Pink Row. 2. BSC to check the inverts of the existing Sanitary line at Pink Row, and document same, and develop a crosssection of the sanitary connection. Attached is a brief summary of a meeting with WPCA on 7/18/19. Attached are the Building Inspector’s 7/8/19 questions required for sign-off for the Building Permit. Please respond. Please update the Utility Plan to identify the 2nd Generator and gas connection to same. Attached is a memo from Wright-Pierce dated 8-1-19 regarding the sanitary system & water meter locations. Please respond to the respective items required: 1. BSC to follow up w/ DP #102 2. PBBA/AZTEC to confirm w/ Fire Marshall & design Engineer, fire protection needs. 3. PBBA/AZTEC/Williamson to confirm pump capacity avoids backups in the sanitary sewer. 4. PBBA/AZTEC to locate water meters. Attached is a 1st draft proposal for the Sewage Ejector Pit. Please review and advise. 2019-08-07 OX WILLIAMSON EJECTOR QUOTE 2019-08-07 OX EJECTOR OPTIONS 2019-08-07 OX WILLIAMSON SK EJECTOR DRAWING ANSWER 1)Permanent access to Building M basement is provided at an areaway on South exterior wall per civil drawings issued 6/11/19 (CD Set). 2)Building M basement will be unconditioned space.
