Bond Update - December 6, 1999
WELDING BUILDING:
contractor, Dorman Construction, has scheduled extra crews in an effort to make the Dec. 31 completion deadline. Time was lost this summer due to the late arrival of the pre-engineered building.
CAMPUS SERVICES ADDITION:
concrete was poured last week for the base of three industrial washing machines for the campus Laundry. Work on the concrete block masonry walls continues. A surplus property shed will be built to the east of the addition as a change order to the project contractor, McKenzie Commercial. Cost is estimated at $65,000. Funding from the bond general contingency fund was approved by Facilities Management Committee chair, Vice President Marie Matsen, after committee discussion. The Art Department kilns used to sit where the shed will be built. The kilns are being relocated to a site between Air Technology and Machine Technology. The Campus Services Addition is scheduled to be completed by end of April 2000. The contractor will be charged about $400 a day under a liquidated damages clause in the contract if the project is not completed on time. This is the first liquidated damages clause in a bond project construction contract and similar clauses are planned for future contracts.
THE SCIENCE/MATH:
job shack for contractor John Hyland Construction has been set up at the edge of the parking lot overlooking the site. Construction activity this week may include drilling or driving of casings for elevator pistons. Elevators will be located on the west and south sides of the new addition. During winter break, structural concrete beams on the existing building+s exterior will be X-rayed to locate reinforcing steel so that the steel is not damaged during installation of connecting anchors for the new addition. A specialty subcontractor will do the X-ray work and the area will be cordoned off to keep passers-by at a safe distance. During spring break, parts of the interior existing building structure also will be X-rayed. The Science-Math Building Addition is tentatively scheduled to be completed by end of December 2000.
THE CHILD CARE PROJECT:
Building 1 roof sheathing is mostly installed. Occupancy is tentatively scheduled for mid March 2000. The walls are up on Building 2 and roof trusses are being installed. Occupancy is tentatively scheduled for late March 2000. The floor slab is in place for Building 3 and the foundation is complete for Building 4; occupancy for these buildings should occur by late May 2000.
STUDENT SERVICES BUILDING:
THE NEXT PROJECT TO BID will be the new Student Services Building. A cost estimate is being updated and bond management hopes the project will go out to bid this week. Construction is tentatively set to begin in February 2000. Due to the impending construction, the LTD station will be relocated for the start of winter term, rather than after winter term is in progress, to the west of the main entrance fountain and flagpoles. This is the same location temporarily used this summer by LTD. Displaced handicapped parking slots will be designated in the nearest standard parking lots and walkways and curbs will be painted to assist pedestrian traffic.
