DISCUSSION
- During the job progress meeting it was clear that timing is critical to the sequence of relocating the
first make-up air units to the roof. This scope of work is scheduled for the second week in October.
It was noted that prefabricated structural roof curbs are specified for roof top equipment and duct
penetrations throughout the roof. These components are typically a long lead item but submittal
information has not yet been provided to Hixson for review. It appears that there is insufficient time
for coordination, review of submittals and fabrication of the structural curbs. To expedite, Forish
Construction must propose an alternative for the roof curbs that is equivalent to the specified
component that yet will still meet the schedule.

SITE
- Installation of fire line is in progress. The post indicator valve and piping is in place but thrust blocks
are not yet installed.
- Demolition and excavation of existing pavement and slabs for the Bottling Room Addition is in
progress.
- Footings and foundation for the Office Addition are in place. There are "fins" and "honeycombs" on
the exposed face of the foundation walls particularly on the north and east walls. These should be
ground smooth and the voids filled with cement mortar.
- The chiller platform foundation is in place.
RECEIVING OFFICE AREA
Installation of underground sanitary waste piping is nearly complete. Once connections to the floor
drain, hub drain„ cleanout and vent piping at the east wall of the uniform locker storage are
completed, the footing and foundations for this area will be completed.
RECEIVING DOCK
Installation of 8" FP piping continues. The rods on the sprinkler riser feed main have not yet been
coated with bitumen paint. It was not readily apparent that the thrust block was installed or that the
horizontal rods and clamp extended 15' exterior to the building. See Detail 1/FP00.1.
Installation of three 6" FP risers is nearly complete.
EXISTING BOTTLING ROOM
Installation of various utility piping systems is in progress. Jerry Goodsell indicated that layout and
routing of piping has been field modified from the construction drawings. It is important to note that
all subcontractors must accurately record all modifications on as-built drawings for inclusion on
future record drawings.
