Other Information

** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** Tender Clarification Number 4 Q1. We understand that there is no existing or proposed cooling to the concert hall. Responsibility Matrix includes the 'overheating strategies' to be the primary responsibility of the MEP consultant. With no cooling provided is there a requirement to provide a temperature analysis of the internal spaces following replacement of the ventilation fans and new roofs? We would use CFD to achieve this is required. A1. Correct - no existing or proposed cooling. We have not called for specific CFD modelling however the MEPH consultant will be called upon to demonstrate thermal capacity, forecast and achieved improvement and we have no objection to CFD modelling being utilised. Q2. We assume that overheating assessments are not required to all other spaces. A2. The Concert Hall is the primary area with overheating issues however as part of any intended works to other areas included in the workstreams consideration will need to be made of thermal performance. Q3. Are there any existing cooling facilities that require renewal / upgrades to any areas. Eg studio spaces in Britten Pears Building? A3. No cooling facility works are currently intended to be included as part of this Capital Programme. Q4. We assume that there is no MEP input is required to CH3 - seating and handrails; AD1 - Red House Link; AD2 - Silo building works; AC2 Snape Bridge House, AC4 Red Studio/Cosy Nook/ Home reach as these are not included in the pricing schedule A4. The 5 workstreams listed above are not currently envisaged to have a requirement for any detailed MEPH technical input. Q5. We note the BMS requires an upgrade. Can you outline the extent of the existing BMS systems please. A5. Concert Hall Engine Room has a Trend BMS that deals with heating, hot water and adjacent external lighting (covering the Concert Hall, Britten Pears Building and the Hoffmann Building). Retails BMS is again a trend system covering also the residential buildings, doing similar and is set up in the Energy Centre. Both systems are at least 10 years old (Concert Hall possibly dates back to 1999), have had multiple adaptions and are now unsupported. The Red House Archive has a standalone KNX system.
