(GROUND) performed during construction of the Vail Marriott Mezzanine Beam Repair Project in Vail, Colorado. The special inspection and materials testing services were performed at times scheduled by the Contractor and/or Subcontractors between August 18th, 2015 and September 2nd, 2015. During construction, structural steel welded and bolted connections were periodically observed during construction by a certified welding inspector (CWI). The observations and testing were completed at times scheduled by the Contractor or Subcontractor. Also, observations and testing were performed on the Spray-applied Fire Resistant Materials (SFRM) for adhesion, density and thickness. The observations and testing were completed at times scheduled by the Contractor or Subcontractor. Based on the field observations to date, RFI’s received and/or project documentation received from the design team, it is our opinion that the materials observed for the welded connections, anchor bolt installation and spray applied fire resistant materials were in general accordance with project plans, specifications, and/or applicable RFI’s. The observations and materials testing as indicated above were performed periodically to provide data to the Owner, Contractor and Subcontractors to assist them in evaluating the general compliance of the materials and/or work with the contract documents at the times of our observation and testing. We did not supervise, direct nor have any control over any of the Contractor’s or Subcontractor’s work. We were not responsible for the Contractor’s or Subcontractor’s scheduling of our services, means, methods, procedures, techniques, or sequences of construction, nor responsible for ensuring that any Contractor or Subcontractor performed or completed the work in accordance with the contract documents or construction industry standards.
