Doug,
I inspected the upper terminal building and loading deck footers prior to the concrete pour scheduled
for the afternoon of t2/tL/18. The purpose of the inspection was to verify rebar and footer widths. No
layout verification or footer elevations were confirmed. I noted a few minor items that needed to be
modified prior to the pour commencing. All of the list below needed to be corrected prior to the pour. I
observed most of the corrections during my time on site.
1.) All dirt and chunks of mud on the rebar needs to be brushed off prior to pour,
2.) Vertical rebar extending24" into the walls needs to be placed at a minimum of !2" c/c perthe
plans. Additional bars need to be added where the footer elevations step to meet this
requirement at all locations.
3,) Ensurethatallverticalbarsareverticalafterthepourandalignedtoallowforconnectionofthe
future wall rebar.
4,) Rebar clearance at GL A/1 does not meet the minimums. To remedy, the footer form is to be
moved to the other side of the step support (3" to the south). This will increase the footer size
from 16" to L9" and provide for adequate form to rebar clearance.
5.) Rebar in the south wall of the loading deck column pads needs to be modified per plans. The
vertical bars will not fit inside of the specified column as formed.
6.) Any loose mud, sediment or water under the isolated pads in the loading deck area needs to be
removed prior to pouring.
7.) The south east isolated pad under the loading dock was moved l-'-6 east from revision 3 plans to
the revision 4-"For Construction" plans. lt appears the pad is located in the R3 location. Move
the pad to the final R4 location.
The forms were covered overnight with insulated bfankets. A Wacker ground heating machine was
onsite and operating at the time of my inspection. I was told it had been operating continuously over
the last severaldays. At the time of the inspection the outgoing line of the machine indicated a
temperature of !37'and I physically noted the incoming line was also warm. Based on the insulation,
heating and weather conditions, the forms are at an acceptable temperature for pouring.

Doug,
Per your request, I inspected the visible steel and joist connections of the Phase I portion of the project
for structural completion and accuracy. This inspection was at the request of Garfield County and
required for the certificate of occupancy and thus the grand opening tomorrow. I have previously
inspected and affirmed that the concrete foundations were built to or modified according to meet the
requirements of our structural engineering drawings. During today's inspection I verified that the
required bridging and bolted connections were installed in the lower floor of the new building (for the
electrical room) and under the loading deck slab system. I did not inspect the slab pour reinforcement,
steel connections or framing that were buried in the walls or under concrete.
Based on my professional opinion, this phase of the building is stable and capable of handling the
intended design loading. I noted a few minor issues during my inspection that need to be corrected
prior the building phase being deemed 100% complete.
1.) The lajeune bolts at have not been torqued (or noted as hand tight) at the main levelframing at
the following locations:
a. GLC/t.g - Steel Beam #: 1205D
b. GL D/3.8-Steel Beam #: I2O2C
2.) The imported dirt used to create the egress pathway from the lower electrical room is in direct
contact with two steel columns. The dirt needs to be removed in these areas to avoid any long
term corrosion.
a. GLC/2 - Steel Column #: 11038
b. GL C/3 - Steel Column #: 11024
3.) The two bridging x-braces at GL D.5/3,6 were not installed in the bay indicated in the Vulcraft
drawings. Either confirm the installed location is acceptable or install as noted.
4.) The foundation along GL 1.4 (south wall of the tram loading deck) needs to have backfill placed
and compacted along the north face of the wall to provide the necessary frost protection.
These do not impact the stability of safety of the structure, but should be corrected in the coming
weeks. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

Peterson P.E
