Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document provides clarifications and answers to vendor questions regarding the specifications for Purpleheart bench slats.

• Dimensions: The "2 x 2.5" and "2 x 4" designations refer to nominal lumber sizes, not the finished dimensions. The Government requires finished (net) dimensions as specified in the Scope of Work and the "Bench Slats – Purpleheart REV 4" drawing.
  • ITEM NO. 00010 (“2 x 2.5”): Finished size is approximately 1-1/8" thick x 2-3/8" wide.
  • ITEM NO. 00020 (“2 x 4”): Finished size is approximately 1-1/8" thick x 3-1/2" wide.
• Thickness Requirement: A full 2" net thickness is not required. The specified finished thickness of approximately 1-1/8" is acceptable.
• Material: The Government requires solid Purpleheart hardwood slats milled from single pieces. Glued-up, laminated, or edge-bonded assemblies are not acceptable. Rough stock can be used, but the final product must be a single, solid hardwood slat.
• Length: All slats shall be Precision End Trimmed (PET) to 6'-0" ± 1/32", with clean, square ends ready for installation.

These clarifications confirm the exact finished dimensions and material requirements for the Purpleheart bench slats, emphasizing that nominal lumber sizes are not acceptable. Bidders should ensure their proposals and material sourcing align with these precise finished specifications.
