Vail,Colorado 81657
Project: Lionshead Transit Center,Vail, Colorado
Weather: � Sunny ❑ Cloudy ❑ Rain ❑ Snow Temp: 38°F±
Construction Activities/Observations: Field engineer arrived on site, as requested, to observe whether there was
freezing ofthe CML1 walls on Gridlines A.0-C.0/8.0, A.0/6.1-8.0, C.0/2.6-8.0 constructed on 4-29-11.
The mortar between the 8"x8"x16" blocks for the exterior of the walls was suspected of freezing on Saturday. Field
engineer used a haininer to lightly tap the masonry joints. There was no flaking,nor was there any sign of cracking due
to crystallization.
Based on our observations, it is our opinion that the CMU walls on Gridlines A.0-C.0/8.0, A.0/6.1-8.0, C.0/2.6-8.0
from 0 to 4 feet have been properly prepared and have met project specifications.
