Q4 2024 Project Update

New Maintenance & Operations Building

DSA approved the glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) deferred submittal, and the approval documents. Additional anchorage testing is required by DSA to take place during installation on the building’s façade in early November. Concurrently, crews will apply weatherproofing layers and set windows in place at all levels of the building. In mid-December, exterior plaster is anticipated to be addressed.

Scaffolding has been erected around the perimeter of the building, and activities have commenced for the installation of the building envelope insulation, waterproofing layers, and windows. The completion of this work will enable the placement of Top Cast, glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), and plaster on the building façade, with activities progressing into December 2024. Roofing material deliveries will begin in mid-November, with installation starting soon thereafter. This will facilitate the installation of drywall and finishes in the building's interior.

Additionally, sidewalk demolition in the vicinity of the building has been completed to improve Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) access. Grading at the interior parking area is about 80 percent complete, with activities expected to continue until the end of November.

Interior drywall installation is expected to begin as soon as the roof layers are installed, providing protection from the upcoming rains. The underground vault for telecommunication and conduits neared completion, with telecommunications excavation expected to conclude in mid-October, followed by rough grading of the site around the same time.

Eighty-five percent of the slab-on-grade (SOG) concrete pour was completed, with the remaining 15 percent was completed in early November after the conclusion of fire water and gas line connections. Concrete pours began on November 4.

Framing on level 1 is nearing completion, with mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) rough-in anticipated to start in mid-November.
