Awareness/Approach to ProjectIdentification of Unique Project Issues

Weather-Proofing• Plans do not show drip-edge above windows • Drip-edge protects against water along

new window frames and steel column encasement

• Recommendation: Install drip-edge system

Drip Edge


Exterior Column Finish• Plans do not specify window frame column finish• Two (2) 4x4x3/8 angles are to

be welded together to serve as the column


Electrical Standards • Plans note the Scope of

Electrical Work requires system components in accordance with NEC requirements

• Control Level Electrical Floorplan shows new cabinet (CP-1) wall mounted beneath window (W1). Door may open within 3’ of the electrical cabinet. NEC code requires a 3’ clearance between a door and an electrical cabinet.


Class 5 Finish• Plans show “typical” locations • Labeling inconsistent • Structure Design Manual recommends

detailing by outlining the entire area to receive Class 5 finish


Slope Pavement Repairs • Plans show Filter Fabric installed vertically

along the back side of the sand cement riprap• Personal experience – place filter fabric around

sand cement riprap and under slope pavement • Structure Design Manual and Design Standards

require filter fabric wrapped around slope cement and placed under slope pavement


Traffic Gates• Plans show locations of new traffic gates and foundations• No foundation details provided • Dimensions, Class of Concrete, and reimforcement details should be provided


Machine Room Level Door Replacement• Not Identified to be Replaced• Installation of new MCC (7’6” x

5’ 0”), Span Drive Cabinet, & Span Drive Equipment will require access through these doors

• Based on field visit, existing doors may require replacement


Replacement of Rack Bolts• Notes state “Assume half of

the existing amount of bolts for bid. “

• Need to replace may not be readily apparent.

• Each bolt should be reviewed.


Anchor Bolt Removal & Installation

• Confirm Correct Installation– Alignment– Location– Depth– Epoxy

• Confirm Bolts Meet Technical Specification Requirements

– High-Strength Bolts– Stainless Steel

• Confirm Bolts Meet Pull-Out Strength Requirements

Awareness/Approach to ProjectInnovative Concepts

• Newforma Project Center• “Opportunity Matrix”• Pre-Operations Meetings• Technical Advisory

Committee – Ricky Langley- Rick Roberts - Robby Walker- Mike Beck- Al Ribas, A2
