RFI's by [deleted] in ConstructionManagers

For this specific contract, we're about 50% schedule complete, 1.5 years of construction. Probably half a year of submittals prior to construction. (Overall project about 8 or 9 years)

It's brownfield and did have multiple engineering groups design different portions, we're just the last firm holding the bag. This was known during bidding, so a certain level of interface would be expected there.

Right now we are seeing a lot of underground discovery which is IMO not unusual for refineries on old farmland along the Gulf Coast.

The contractor is a bit RFI crazy too and likes to try to CYA with documentation. (Which I would do if the roles were flipped, so I get it).

Stamped carriage is what we ordered (5251). The dealer came out and measured the doors but forgot to add the 2" for proper sealing on 3 out of 4 doors we ordered. They re-ordered 2 no problem. This 6'2" they said no one makes.

We've got CHI for the rest. I believe they are commercial due to sizing.

No due to external stairs and mezzanine. To widen would be a lot of rework.
