Subject: Review of Structural Steel Inspection Reports, Millcreek House, Lot 3,
Vail Village First Filing, 303 Mill Creek Circle, Vail, Colorado
Dear Mr. Stevenson:
As requested, we have reviewed the structural steel reports made to date for the subject
project. Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical is performing construction observation and
testing services for the project, submitting our reports under the above job number.
The inspection ofthe structural steel connections for the project was performed by West
Slope Inspection and Testing (WSTI) as a subcontractor to Hepworth-Pawlak
Geotechnical. Doug Young with WSTI, who performed the inspections, is a certified
inspector for welded and bolted connections. The structural steel construction is
essentially complete at this time.
Four inspection reports were�nade for site visits Yo the project by WSTI between October
1, 2013 and March 1, 2014. These reports are attached. The inspections indicate the
structural steel connections were made in general wnformance with the project plans and
specifications or have been resolved as acceptable by the structural engineer. The
structura] engineer (MJ Mueller Company) provided letters regarding the acceptance of
non-conforming connections and these letters are also attached.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our office.
Sincerely,
HEPWORTH — P�I�/-I�AK� ����AL, INC.

Inspection of shop fabrication or field work at�ob site: Field
Report: Visually inspected the field welding at steel beam to wall embed
connections & ledger angle to embed connectians a most locations (some of ledger
angle welds at top sides were covered with steel decking & could not be
inspected) basement Ievel framzng. Visually inspected the field welding at steel
beam to wall embed connections & perimeter channel steel to wall embed
connections grids 5 to 6 ground level framing. Note high strength bolting at areas
inspected above was not yet completed & will need to be inspected at a later date.
'The field welding inspected above appeared to be in substantial conformance
with the plans, and the. quaiity requirements of the AWS Dl.l Siructural Welding
Code except as note below.
1) Noticed angle clips at one side of steel beam to wall embed connectaons were
not welded, as there did not appear to be enough room between the steel beam &
concrete wall to perForm the welding. Noticed this condition a basement/garage
elevator fratning level grids I to 2.5, and ground level framing grid E/5.
2} 'Fyp. weld detail on Myers & Company plan E21 for steel beam to walI embeds
just showed the angle clips welded on the vertical sides. I guess this was reviewed
by the struct�zral engineer & that welding was not required on the top or bottom
sides of tl�e clips uzaless noted.
3) Noticed embed plate appeared to be too low to weld top side o£perimeter
channel sfeel ground level &aming at approximately grzd D.7/6. 1 .
4) Noticed a weld needed completed at perimeter channel steel to wall embed
ground level framing at approximately grid C.2/5.7.

Inspection of shop fabrication or �eld work at �ob site: Field
Report: Visually inspected the field weIding at steel beam to wall embed
connections & perimeter channel steel to wali embad connections bottom side
only (top side was covezed with wood sub flooring) grids 1 to 5 ground level
framing, and inspected high strettgth bolting at steel beam, column, and joist
connections ground level framing,
Visually inspected the field welding at steel beam to wall embed connections,
steel truss connections completed to date, I6"x8"x3/8" tube steel connections grid
line S, and perimeter channel steel to wall embed cozuiections. Also inspected higla
stren.gth bolting at steel beam, column, and joist connections main level framing.
The field welding & lugh strength bolting inspected above appeared to be in
general conformance with the plans, and the quality requirements of the AWS Dl .l
Structural Welding Code & the AISC/RCSC Specification for A325/A490 bolting
except as note beIow.
1) Noticed angle clitps at one side of steel beam to wall embed connections were
not weided, as there did not appear to be enougtx room between the s#eel beam &
concrete wall to perform the welding. Noticed this condition as noted in report # 1
at basemenUgarage elevator framing Ievel grids 1 to 2.5 & ground level framing
grid �/5. Also observed this condition on this visit at ground ievel framing grid
C/3 . Steel erectors had welded top flange of steel beams to embed plates with multi
pass welds at side were angle clips could not be welded basement/garage elevator
framing connections. Top flanges of beams gzound level framing weze not welded
Before a final report could be issued some docurnentation would need #o be
pxovided regarding this condition as being acceptable or not to the structural
engineer.
2) Noticed angie connection clips were not installed/welded at one side of the tube
page 2 of 2
steel truss main level framing grid A.8/4. It appeared #hat the wall embed plates
were misaIigned with the tube steel huss connections.
3) Noticed or�ly one angle clip was installed/welded at steel beam to wa11 face plate
connection main 1eve1 framing grid Cl5.4. Appeared to be a wall pocket too close
to beam to weld 2°d angle clip.
4) Some of the steel beam & joists connections had been field welded in lieu of
bolting varies locations where bolt holes did not align. Connections had generally
been welded three side with 1/4" filtet welds. Have structural engineer
review/approve.
5} Welding & bolting was being completed were steel members had been cut loose
ground floor framing grid C to D between 1 & 2, and a few bolts needed tightened
varies areas. Also beam conzxection clips needed welded main floor fi•aming grid
C.2 at 5 .8 & 6. T'his work will need to be inspected on a future visit along with the
remainder ofthe project that was not yet completed.
