Answer: Gangway is a submittal item in the project plans. Contractor to submit shop drawings for approval Question: Floating Dock StabilityThe gangway transfers approximately 650–800 lb to the floating dock. Because this load is offset about 1 ft from the edge, it will create a torsional moment that tends to tilt the float and overstress the pile guides.👉 Please clarify how this unbalanced loading condition will be prevented, and whether the gangway landing will be centered on the float.Answer: Floating dock and gangway are submittal items in the project plans. If a compensation float is required for the gangway or floating dock submitted by the Contractor, item is to be included in the submittal. Question: Transition Plate and Access AreaA transition plate (typically 4–5 ft long) is required and must include guardrails.With only a 5 ft wide float and an off-center gangway, the remaining flat walk surface is less than 1 ft wide, which is not code-compliant nor safe.👉 Please clarify the intended transition-plate length and landing configuration ensuring safe, ADA-compliant access.Answer: Floating dock and gangway are submittal items in the project plans. If a compensation float is required for the gangway or floating dock submitted by the Contractor, item is to be included in the submittal. In all other respects, the contract documents of which this is an Addendum, and attachments relative thereto, shall remain in full force and effect.
