Amendment / Modification

This document, "AMENDMENT 1- STRIPING LAYOUT.pdf", appears to be an amendment to a previous solicitation or set of construction documents. It contains a partial floor plan for the 3rd floor (East) of Macdonough Hall, specifically detailing the layout for a basketball court.

Key elements shown and noted include:

• Basketball court line layout centered on existing roof truss.
• 6'-0" radius for the outside edge of court markings.
• General notes specifying line width (2"), color (blue, subject to approval), and that backboards, rims, and nets are to be provided and installed by others.
• References to other sheets (A-703 & I-133) for floor finishes.

This amendment specifically provides a "BASKETBALL COURT DIAGRAM - PARTIAL - 3RD FLOOR (EAST) PLAN" and associated keynotes and general notes related to court striping.

This amendment likely impacts the scope of work related to court striping and potentially requires bidders to update their understanding of the project requirements and associated costs. It may also affect proposal deadlines if not already passed.

Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document provides answers to questions submitted by potential bidders regarding the solicitation for basketball equipment installation in a multi-purpose room.

• Scissor Lift: Bidders are responsible for providing their own scissor lift for installation. The government will not provide one. Scaffolding is recommended for access to the 3rd floor.
• Court Striping: A striping layout is attached (referenced as AMENDMENT I-STRIPING LAYOUT). Bidders should refer to this for court dimensions and centering.
• Backstop Bracing: The backstop may be braced or fully attached to existing steel diagonal bracing in the room, provided it allows for proper placement related to the basketball striping layout. Attachment to roof purlins is also acceptable, subject to the same placement requirement.

This document clarifies equipment installation procedures, access methods, and structural attachment points for the backstops, which may affect bidder proposals and planning.
