Roger,

Bachmann Construction Company, Inc. (BCCI) has completed the reconstruction of the walls on the first floor.

Moisture tests of the concrete floor slabs have been completed and indicate levels are within acceptable levels for installation of flooring under cabinets. Crews have completed the floor patching and are working on installation of cabinets in the Kindergarten area.

Rubber base is being installed on the first floor and is approximately 75 percent complete.

Crews are installing ceiling tile in first floor classrooms.

Transfer grills between classrooms and corridors are being installed. Grills are being protected with plastic.

Electricians are attaching electrical devices and installing cover plates on first floor.

BCCI is sealing interior masonry control joints above the ceilings per original construction documents.

Installation of acoustical insulation, gypsum board and taping on the second floor walls has been completed. Crews are painting walls on the second floor.

BCCI is fabricating metal pans to be installed under lockers prior to installation.

All return and exhaust ducts continue to be protected with filter media to prevent construction dust from entering the ventilation systems.

Interior roof drains have been insulated to prevent condensation.

BCCI is ordering brick to be used during repairs to the exterior flashing.

An infrared scan of the roof conducted by our roof consultant, SRI, has been completed. Two roof drains are to be investigated further as a result of the scan.

A water leak from recent rains was reported in the custodial office and is in an area being reviewed for repairs following receipt of the brick.

Removal of the lower two inches of gypsum board in the office areas is scheduled to begin next week.

BCCI has provided a schedule that indicates that majority of work on the first floor classrooms will be complete by the end of June and the second floor by the end of July.
