Inquiry #1: According to page X-1 of the plans, both section views of the loop ramp show minor concrete under the new HMA section. There are only 7 cubic yards of minor concrete shown in bid item #25. Should this be Class 2 AB like the Northbound on-ramp section has instead of minor concrete?
Inquiry submitted 01/28/2022

Response #1:(BI#1)-Minor Concrete should be used at Location 1 as shown in the Contract Documents. Please bid per current Contract Documents.

Inquiry #2: In regards to Inquiry #1, since this section is confirmed to be minor concrete, can Cal Trans provide a reinforcement detail, if any is required, as far as rebar size and spacing? Can the 1’ thick edge be eliminated and just continue the 6” of HMA on top of 6” of Minor Concrete to the Shoulder Backing? This will make the construction much easier.
