RAUTH, OPERATIONS MANAGER6 SUBJECT: LNDIAN RIVER DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES UTILITY MAINTENANCE BUILDING EXTENSION BACKGROUND: On May 22, 2001, the Board of County Commissioners approved a contract with Barth Construction for design and construction of a 7200 sq. ft addition to the existing 7200 sq ft maintenance building at the West Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility. (See attached agenda item and contract). ANALYSIS As outlined in the contract, the project is administered in two phases. Phase One of the project is the permitting and design portion of the building addition, (524,000.00), and Phase Two is the actual construction of the addition. (S 174,769.00). Phase One of the project has been completed. During this phase of the project, a structural review of the existing 4 -inch concrete floor slab was performed. The structural engineer has recommended increasing the slab thickness of the new addition to 6 -inches. The slab thickness of the existing building is 4 -inches. (See attached letter dated 09/17/01). The additional 2 -inches of floor thickness will avoid the problems of cracking that the existing slab has had, due to large, heavy equipment and truck traffic on this slab. The increased cost for this change is 54,772.00. (See attached Change Order). RECONINIENDATION• The Staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends Board authorization and approval for Change Order No. 1, in the amount of 54,772.00.
