At the time of our visit all of the struts had been installed and the Contractor was in the process of straitening the wall. Based on our observations we found the construction to be proceeding in substantial compliance with the contract documents. The following items need to be revised/completed: • Installation of flat and lock washers on both sides of all connections. • Completion of wall straitening and grating installation. • Final adjustments and caulking bolt holes. • Welding of struts in the cells 3 & 4 area. • Completion of other items and site demobilization. We understand that due to project schedule and weather constraints the specified epoxy injection of the 45 degree cracks in the 8" wall is being deleted. Our inspection revealed that straitening of the wall has decreased the crack width to the point that self - healing is likely. If, during normal operations, you note that these cracks or the 8" wall base joint are leaking we recommend that they be injected or otherwise sealed. Please call if you have any questions.
