Special inspections required on this project were listed as adhesive anchors, concrete and structural steel on SIA. The permit documents only called for adhesive anchors at the new column base plates for the columns that were replaced along the storefront. These adhesive anchors were re -engineered as mechanically fastened, thus eliminating adhesive anchors from the project permit documents. The adhesive anchors that were inspected by Mayes were the dowels that Aldrich and Associated inserted into the building perimeter slab, where possible, as part of Aldrich's standard practice for new slabs on grade, although not required by the permit documents. Additionally, because portions of the slabs were to remain to be replaced in a future phase of the project, the dowels were not extended into the slab on the north and east slabs. Dowels could not be inserted into 8" un-grouted CMU at the north portion of the south wall. The dowels are not required for gravity slabs on grade, nor were required in the permit documents, but since they are "adhesive anchors" they fall under the purview of Special Inspections. The permit documents call for the removal and replacement of existing slab on grade with new. The exisfing slab was unreinfbrced. The new slab was a bidder design by contract as follows: 04" thick with #4 bar@ 12"O.C. each way," The concrete mix design used was 5,000 psi concrete. The minimum compressive requirement for interior concrete slabs on grade is 2,500 psi as per IBC 1904.2.2. There was not any structural steel installed as part of this project. All of the above work was observed to be performed in conformance with the permit documents, the IBC and Aldrich and Associates enhanced standard practices. We have attached the pertinent permit documents for your review and expect to receive a final inspection letter from your firm on behalf of the Owner, BARC Properties LLC, so that we are granted occupancy by the City of Edmonds. Should you have any question, concerns or require and more information, please do not hesitate to contact our office at your convenience.
