Addendum 3

Q1 Where the scope of services requests a 'fire strategy report' for the blocks, it is understood this refers to the Snape Maltings Concert Hall, the Britten Pears Building and the accommodation blocks (Snape Rooms and Elizabeth Court only). Does the client request fire strategy input to the areas which are changing in use; or is this a full holistic review of the building, including existing conditions.

A1 Yes the request relates to the Concert Hall, Britten Pears Building, Snape Rooms (AC1) and Elizabeth Court (AC3). It identifies the need to establish the current fire strategy for each location, identify if it needs addressing as a result of the proposed alteration works to each building and determining the fire strategy for the change of use (which applies only to Snape Rooms).

Q2 Where the scope of services requests a 'review of the sprinkler system'; does the client request a high-level review of the proposed system (i.e., category, coverage area to ensure it is suitable for the Fire Strategy); or a detailed review of all design drawings and specification of the system.

A2. A sprinkler system is already in place in the Concert Hall and the requirement is to assess how the proposed works affect it and the need to alter to comply with the fire strategy. This may include design drawings and specification for input in to a tender.
