Bidder Q&A — 1/18 answered from drawings

The Finish Plans on each sheet show floor finish tags by zone, but the finish material names are too small to read legibly at this resolution. Visible zone tags appear on: A-001 (Unit S1 Finish Plan, Detail 2) — bathroom and kitchen/living areas tagged; A-010 (Unit A1 Finish Plan, Detail 3) — bedroom, living room, bath, kitchen tagged; A-011 (Unit A2 Finish Plan, Detail 2) — bedroom, living, bath, kitchen, half bath, dentistry tagged; A-012 (Unit A3 Finish Plan, Detail 2) — similar zones tagged. The specific material designations (e.g., tile, LVT, carpet) referenced by the finish tags cannot be confirmed from these images — a finish schedule or legend sheet is needed. Ask the GC/architect for the Finish Schedule (referenced as 'Sheet S-3.00' or similar in the general notes) that decodes each finish tag by room/zone.

There is no dedicated finish schedule or interior finishes table visible on any of these sheets. Each sheet contains a 'Unit Finish Plan' (view 2 or 3 on A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012) and a 'Casework Notation Legend,' but no room-by-room finish schedule listing flooring, wall, or ceiling materials with product specifications is shown. Ask the GC/architect to provide the finish schedule, which may be on a separate interior finishes or specification sheet not included in this set.

No specific tile product information (manufacturer, model number, color codes, size, or pattern) is explicitly called out on any of the four sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012). The finish plans (views 2 and 3 on each sheet) show flooring designation symbols and room finish tags, but the actual tile specs, types, sizes, manufacturers, model numbers, and color codes are not legible or listed on these drawings. Ask the GC/architect to provide the Finish Schedule or Interior Finish Specifications sheet that defines all tile callout codes visible on the finish plans.

The bathroom elevation drawings on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, and A-012 show tile in shower/tub surrounds and on select walls, but no explicit spec note stating a specific wainscot height (e.g., 4 ft or 7 ft) or 'full to ceiling' instruction is legibly visible at this image resolution. The tile notation symbols (e.g., 'TL-S' and 'TL-B' callouts) appear on the elevations but the accompanying height dimensions or keynote text are not clearly readable. Ask the GC/architect to provide the finish schedule and/or tile height keynotes from the bathroom elevations on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, and A-012 to confirm the exact tile extent.

No substrate specification for tile floors or walls is explicitly shown on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, or A-012. The drawings show tile locations and finish plan designations but do not call out Hardiebacker, cement board, Schluter KERDI/DITRA, or any underlayment thickness. Ask the GC/architect to provide the wall and floor assembly details or specifications section (likely CSI Division 09) that identifies the tile substrate type and thickness.

No transition strips, edge trim, or cove base profiles (such as Schluter SCHIENE/JOLLY/DILEX, aluminum transition strips, or tile base profiles like CT53A 6x12) are explicitly called out or specified on any of the four sheets visible (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012). The finish plans and elevations show floor/wall finishes with notation codes but do not detail edge trim or transition profiles. Ask the GC/architect to provide the finish schedule, detail sheets, or specifications section (e.g., Division 09) that identifies all transition strip and cove base products by manufacturer and profile.

No grout color, grout type (sanded/unsanded/epoxy), or thinset/mortar product is specified on any of the four sheets. The finish plans and elevation drawings show tile locations but contain no spec notes quoting grout or mortar products. Ask the GC/architect to provide the finish specifications or project manual section (typically CSI Division 09 30 00) for tile setting materials and grout specifications.

The drawings do not explicitly call out a waterproofing membrane type (no KERDI, RedGard, hot-applied, or mud bed is specified by name on any of the four sheets). The finish plans and bathroom elevations show tile locations in wet areas but contain no waterproofing notes, membrane callouts, or floor-to-wall height dimensions for waterproofing. Ask the GC/architect to provide the waterproofing specification (CSI Division 07 or 09) and any detail sheets that call out the membrane type and required turn-up height at walls.

The bathroom elevations on these sheets show tile work indicated on shower/tub surround walls (tile grid patterns are visible in the elevation drawings for Unit S1, A1, A2, and A3 bathrooms), suggesting ceramic/porcelain tile rather than fiberglass surrounds. Tile tag callouts (e.g., 'TS-2', 'TS-3', 'TS-4') are visible on the bathroom elevations across all four sheets. However, exact tile heights are not clearly legible at this drawing resolution. No fiberglass surround notation is visible. Regarding ADA/roll-in compliance: the bathroom elevations on A-010 (Unit A1) show '11-5/8" CLEAR' and 'FULLY OPEN' notations near shower door/entry areas, and Unit Plan General Notes reference accessibility design standards, but no explicit 'ADA roll-in shower' or specific accessible threshold callout is clearly readable. Ask the GC/architect to confirm exact tile heights from the finish schedule (referenced as sheet S-3.XX series) and confirm which, if any, showers are designated ADA/roll-in compliant.

No allowance dollar amounts, owner-supplied item designations, alternates, or value-engineering (VE) notes affecting the flooring scope are visible on any of these sheets. The drawings contain Unit Plan General Notes, Casework Notation Legends, Design Standards Legends, and Wall Notation Legends, but none reference flooring allowances, owner-furnished materials, alternates, or VE items. Ask the GC/architect to confirm whether a finish schedule, specification section, or addendum contains flooring allowances or alternates.

The plan sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012) show unit floor plans, finish plans, RCPs, and interior elevations only. No slab or subfloor construction details, slab thickness, vapor barrier, self-leveling underlayment, or primer specifications are shown on any of these sheets. Ask the GC or architect to provide the structural drawings and/or project specifications (Division 03/Division 09) that define subfloor/slab construction type, thickness, vapor barrier requirements, and any self-leveling or primer requirements.

No door schedule is visible on any of the four sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012). These sheets show unit floor plans and interior elevations for residential unit types S1, A1, A2, and A3 at 313 North Beckley Ave. Door tags visible on the floor plans include individual door symbols, but no compiled door schedule with tags, quantities, or zone breakdowns (customer restrooms, family, employee, pharmacy, tenant) is shown. Ask the GC/architect to provide the door schedule sheet, which is likely on a separate sheet (often labeled A-200 or similar).

None of the four sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012) contain a demolition plan, existing-flooring removal scope, or any asbestos/hazmat abatement callouts. All sheets show new-construction unit plans, finish plans, RCPs, and interior elevations only. Ask the GC/architect whether a demolition plan sheet exists in the package and whether an asbestos/hazmat survey or abatement specification applies to this project.

No moisture/relative humidity testing requirements (ASTM F2170, ASTM F1869, or similar) are mentioned anywhere on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, or A-012. No responsible party or maximum RH/moisture limit is specified on these drawings. Ask the GC/architect to confirm whether moisture testing is required per the project specifications (Division 01 or Division 09 spec sections) and who bears responsibility.

No OFCI (owner-furnished/contractor-installed) designations for flooring materials are explicitly called out on any of the four sheets. There are no spec notes, legends, or callouts on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, or A-012 that identify tile, transition strips, base, or adhesives as owner-furnished. The Finish Plans (views 2 and 3 on each sheet) show floor finish tags but do not include procurement or furnishing responsibility notes. Ask the GC/architect to provide the Finish Schedule (referenced as a separate schedule on these sheets), Division 09 specifications, and any OFCI schedule to determine which flooring materials are owner-supplied versus contractor-supplied.

None of the four unit plan sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012) contain any site-logistics notes addressing working hours, after-hours or weekend restrictions, occupied-building requirements, staging areas, parking, elevator access, or phased turnover. The General Notes visible on these sheets pertain solely to architectural/unit-plan items (accessibility, wall construction, blocking, casework, etc.). Ask the GC/architect to provide the Project Manual, Division 01 General Requirements, and any site-specific logistics plan or pre-bid meeting notes that address these constraints.

No tile installation pattern (running bond, stack bond, herringbone, diagonal, etc.) is explicitly called out on any of the four sheets (A-001, A-010, A-011, A-012). The finish plans and bathroom elevations show tile in the bathrooms but contain no pattern notation, offset percentage, or layout starting-point instruction visible at this resolution. Ask the GC/architect to issue a tile setting plan or spec section that identifies the pattern, offset, and layout reference point for each tiled area.

No tile movement/expansion joint specifications are explicitly shown on sheets A-001, A-010, A-011, or A-012. There are no spec notes referencing TCNA EJ-171, joint spacing, joint width, sealant type, or Schluter DILEX profiles anywhere on these plan/elevation sheets. Ask the GC/architect to provide the project specification book (Division 09 32 00 or 09 30 00) and any tile setting details that address movement joint requirements, spacing, width, and approved products.
