Title: (Z) - Project Modifications and Retainage for Calusa

Description:

Calusa ES HVAC Replacement Project No. 1911-8222

 

This project modification contains the following items:

 

Item #1

§         CCD #3R in the amount of $4,502.00.   

§        Description: Provide additional temporary air conditioning.

§         Cause: Design Omission

§         Justification:  The engineering estimate for temporary air conditioning capacity (Tons) was not adequate for cooling the main office during the construction.  One additional month of temporary air conditioning was required.

 

Item #2

§         CCD #20R in the amount of $7,025.00

§         Description:  Install four additional heat detectors, Rooms 212, 207,106, and 110.

§         Cause: School District Requested.

§         Justification:  Requested by the Building Department inspector upon final review of the facility.

 

Item #3

§         CCD #21M in the amount of $1,301.00.

§         Description:  Install a double layer of drywall at roof truss and rated wall.

§         Cause: Unforeseen Condition.

§         Justification: The roof truss was placed directly over a wall that required a 4-hour fire rating.  The concrete wall encased the roof truss and therefore did not comply with the 4 hour fire rating criteria.  The engineered solution was the installation of drywall on either side of the wall.

 

Item #4

§         CCD #22 in the amount of $12,805.00.

§         Description:  Correct above ceiling electrical code violations and firewall penetrations.

§         Cause: School District Requested.

§         Justification: Corrections required prior to acoustical ceiling installation and Building Department inspections and approvals.

 

Item #5

§         CCD #23 in the amount of $2,133.00 

§         Description:  Remove and replace PVC roof vent line and 3” copper water main.  Drain, re-fill and bleed water system.      

§         Cause: Unforeseen Condition.

§         Justification:  Existing vent stack was located too close to the make up air intake.  The 3” copper main conflicted with the installation of ductwork. 

 

Item #6

§      Description: On Calusa Elementary School, the Contractor, Hill York Services, achieved Substantial Completion on January 26, 2004, and requested a Reduction of Retainage from 5% to 1%; the Architect and District staff recommends this reduction.

Recommendation:

I recommend the School Board ratify Project Modifications in the amount of $27,766.00 and approve Reduction of Retainage from 5% to 1%, for Calusa Elementary School, HVAC Replacement Project, and authorize the Chairman and Superintendent to execute all related contract documents.

Financial Impact:

The financial impact to the Project’s Budget is $27,766.00.

 

The source of funds is the project budget as approved by the Board at the time of the Construction Contract Award.
