REPORT BY: ABH Page 2 of 6 Exterior items: 1. At the time of observation, Lambrian was completing the CW Caps at curtain wall type C3 (auditorium lobby corridor)--see photo at the bottom of page 3. 2. The exterior envelope cladding is nearing completion. At the time of observation on 9-29 Lymo had completed the ACM panel installation on the front facade, including (with Lambrian) for the curtain wall spandrel panels at the auditorium corridor (see 9-29 photo on page 5). 3. The final GFRC panel infill at the east elevation of Area C has been completed (see photo on page 6) 4. The only major item that Lymo still has to complete is missing panels at the roof bulkheads and back parapets. Site work: 1. At the time of observation on 9-27, RBO was installing the boulders for the round ‘cul-de-sac’ next to D wing on the West (see photos in attached TLA site report K1008-18). 2. RBO has started installing the athletic field light posts (see photo on page 6 in TLA site report K1008-18). 3. EA Quinn is in the process of installing landscaping in the courtyards and elsewhere around the site (see photos in attached TLA site report K1008-18). 4. Playground equipment installation is ongoing (see page 4 in attached TLA site report K1008-18). 5. At the time of observation, RBO was putting in the crushed stone for the front plaza area in prep for concrete installation, as well as installing the soil “mounds” at the planting areas (see TLA report K1008-18). DISCREPANCIES, SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS New items 9291. Archway at cafetorium entrance: (9-27) CB informed PE that, due to sprinkler pipe conflicts, the “river ceiling” in the main lobby 1st floor is not going to meet the intended design height of 9’-0” to the bottom of the straight slats. (The same issue is observable at some of the corridor crossings in the academic wings.) For the main lobby in B, PE asked CB to “pause” the adjacent millwork portal installation, so that PE can try to lower the head of the portal, along with the ceiling, and thus the ‘portal’ won’t end up going above the ceiling. (Exact Solution TBD). 9292. The light grey accent wall paint in some classrooms in D looks splotchy; On 9-29 PE discussed this issue with O’Byrne’s foreman, Brendan, who stated that he was planning to return to the classroom wings to touch up that and other areas, but that the priority now is to keep everything moving in Areas A and B. 9293. De-fillibrator (AED) recess. PE pointed out that we apparently missed the blocking and the cutout/recess for the emergency cardiac de-fillibrator (AED) at the Wixon entrance, per Bulletin #29. It was supposed to go on the west side of the lobby adjacent to the Wixon entrance. PE noticed that there is already an electrical outlet at that location that will preclude Arden from installing it exactly per Bulletin #29, but CB said they would have Colony install it on the north side of the portal. 9294. RFI #441- cafetorium stage rigging conflict (9-29) CB showedPE that the conflict between the main stage curtain (HC2) and the track for the folding partition is more severe than the theater consultant had suggested in the drawing that was issued with the response to RFI #441. The pipes will need to shift further west, so in order to make everything fit PE directed CB to omit one of the valences (pipe #4). Prior items 9201.
