3B. RFP (Request for Pricing) / NOA (Notice of Action) • R012 HS Front Lot Paving – Looking at options for front parking

lot. Asphalt vs Chip Seal vs Seal Coat (ISD will need for staging area for MS remodel work in near future).

4. Job Site Issues • Safety - no accidents; Safety meetings each week • SWPPP - Gallagher has contractor keeping up with requirements. • Rain on lower slab on North side of HS 1st pour (Area A) • Temp Fences and Walks and Security with School Back in

Session (ES – temp fence pretty much in place but need one section on west side that is being replaced; same temp sidewalks as spring; will use more of the back parking lot from this point forward; signs on doors for emergency exit only with caution tape across door; coach wants gym door to north open for air flow but safety issue with direct exit to construction area – monitor this; exit from cafeteria will not be orange fencing this year to allow easier egress during emergency. HS – temp sidewalk to Ag poured today; sidewalk in parking lot and on east side will be complete


this week; exposed areas in demo areas have been covered; exit in Area E have doors to construction that can be blocked; batting cage construction area will have temp fence; football and HS parking in/out will be on west drive; Ag building will have water this week; irrigation damaged on west side but leave it alone at this point. BOTH – one of Gallagher’s superintendent will be with any sub if go inside buildings; all workers will have sticker on helmets; workers will remain inside fencing; workers won’t talk to teachers or students; no smoking; proper attire by workers.)

5. Review of Construction Progress: • Slab pour ES for porch to complete 8/19 (leave out for columns

asked but not per design since monolithic designed) • Slab pour HS for Area A 8/20; step down beam next to Area A

next week 8/26; Gym 9/22; Area E and part of C 9/29; - Concrete is 29 days behind in completing HS slab (did change to smaller pour to help concrete contractor; holding meetings with them about schedule on weekly basis)

• Batting cage slab pour with smaller portion of HS slab pour (like grade beams at Area B)

• Steel Erection ES Class A 90% • Steel Erection ES started 7/31 (2 weeks for major skeleton so

almost complete) • Front parking lot work at HS near complete (need cleanup) • Underground Electric & Plumbing at HS slab continues • Waterline complete at HS except final tie in (looking to add 12”

across front) 6. Identification of Potential Delays Impacting Cost or Schedule:

• Still catching up with rain; Gallagher has submitted potential rain days each month; not formal request yet (only 6 days allowed per contract once take off normal weather days). (Overall month worth of days to catch back up – ES/HS; ES looks on schedule but HS behind)

7. Old Business 1.4 Technology grants being sought by ISS. Scopes needs to be

nailed down; last week meeting helped to clarify. Have received detailed list from technology subcontractor. Need all to review and then finalize.

1.5 Off site waterline – Contract approved by board; Surveying will start soon. Attorney working on Interlocal Agreement. City is complete with 8” line in front of elementary school. Possible that Gallagher install line first and ISD contractor tied to that line. Fire flow test for HS was twice as good as original; asked City to eliminate or reduce size of 12” line. City asked to redo test at HS and was good results; looking to do 12” line in front of HS to take 3rd pressure test then revisit.

Example of Weekly Report for Week of 9/7/15 HS: On Tuesday crews continued with prep for the next concrete for Thursday. Thursday morning rain showers pushed the pour back to a later date. ES: On Tuesday crews continued with the erection of red iron, steel framing and insulation board. The placement of electrical conduit has also begun. The concrete sub is chiseling down the concrete that was over poured in the porch area to allow for the concrete to adhere to the rebar. Thursday: Due to morning rain showers limited work was being performed. This included welding on the meza-mean, placement of framing and electrical conduit. Chipping out concrete in the porch area. I talked with Buddy and he told me that PHI will be bringing in a saw to cut down at the old gym to make sure that the installation of the expansion board is done correctly. After it was discovered by removal of expansion board on the ends that the means and methods to fix the original bust in construction methods were not followed.
