<br />Mr. C. F. Simpson, sales engineer of the Florida -Portland Company appeared before the
<br />Board and gave the following report regarding the leaks in the Courthouse Building. Mr. Simpson
<br />stated that the cement used in the construction of the building was not manufactured by the
<br />Florida. -Portland Cement Company, but by the Magnolia Cement Company, who is one of their com-
<br />petitors and that there was nothing wrong with the motar because the mixture had been properly
<br />made of one part cement and 3 parts sand. He reported the trouble was in the roof in as much as
<br />the flashing is; of slate which is not flashing material and should have been felt, also that th
<br />flashing lapse uphill. instead of downhill and from -the everyday movement of the. roof, gravel.ha
<br />worked under the lapse, therefore the water was running through the flashing on to the concrete
<br />roof deck beneath, then off the edges of the deck into the one inch dead air space between the
<br />exterior face brick -and the back-up tile. I-. Simpson also reported that water was standing on
<br />the roof when of course this condition should not exiat. He suggested that.a picture be taken
<br />of this condition and that in as much as the County had a ten year guaranteefrom the Barrett
<br />Roofing Company that he would suggest the Board take immediate action to get the roof fixed and
<br />by so doing would stop all of the so called gosip regarding the condition of the Courthouse.
<br />Mr. Bud Fischer, who was associated with Mr. Simpson in making the investagation concurred with
<br />this report.
<br />Mr. Harry E. Herman, P. W. A. Resident Engineer Inspector, stated that he was in gen-
<br />eral agreement with the report of Mr. Simpson.
<br />Barr. W. H. Hensick, Contractor, also statedthathe was in general ---agreement with -the
<br />report submitted by Mr. Simpson.and.stated that he did not approve of the flashing material.us
<br />and told the roofers about it at that time -but their reply was that. -the County was .getting. a lO
<br />year guaranteed Barrett Roof and would be protected in the event it-was_not satisfactory.
<br />fir. W. H. Garms, Architect, approved Bir. C. F. Simpsons report and suggested that a
<br />statement be prepared for publication, however, the Board decided it would be better to defer
<br />this action until the roofing company proceeded with the work.
<br />On motiong made by E. P. Poole, seconded by Frank C. Vickers and carried the Board
<br />extended a vote of thanks to Mr. Simpson and Bir. Fischer for their investagation and report.
