Add General Note 7, to read: “At stair towers, install new crown molding as noted on A301”.
Add General Note 8, to read: “Where existing areas to be painted have contrasting paint colors,
contractor to apply sand texture to lower portion of wall to match texture of upper wall portion as
closely as possible. Sand and refinish transition between paint finishes as required to provide a final

Fire alarm One Line Diagram
Below are questions that Aaron Crowley of Integrated Electronic Systems has raised.regarding the intent
of information included in the fire alarm riser diagram and formal responses to these questions. Note that
information on final system wiring and raceway provisions will be required to be included in the fire
alarm shop drawings as described in specification section 283121.
Question 1) The riser diagram shows a new fire alarm riser from the top of the fire alarm panel, up to the
attic and across, and back down the opposite stairwell, is there a reason for this
Response: This is not the intent. West side devices for the Basement through the second floor would be
fed from the first floor ceiling. Only west stairwell at the third floor would be fed through the attic. The
existing fire alarm riser goes up thru all floors on the east side of the corridors (not the stairwell), and then
each floor is fed from a j-box from the east side of the corridor to the west side stairwell, why are we not
just leaving that in place One of the project goals is to eliminate as much of the surface conduit as we
can. This includes the conduit riser that runs up the east side of the corridor wall. Installing a new
Wiremold 2000 raceway in the corner of the stairwell behind the door that is normally held open should
clean up the installation.
Question 2) The drawings do not appear to address the existing fire alarm riser piping that is located in
the corridors, east side
