Every two weeks, representatives from Gillespie Design Group (our architects), Lamp Incorporated (our construction management firm), and the library meet for what’s called a project meeting. Contractors who will be working on the expansion/renovation attend also. Requirements, procedures, safety, and scheduling are discussed.
The most recent project meeting was Tuesday December 22, 2009 at 9:30. The schedule for early January 2010 was discussed. All dates are subject to change. Here are notes from that meeting:
· Demolition and preliminary plumbing work will start January 4. Part of this work will involve saw cutting the concrete floor, which will start at 6 a.m. when it does occur and end before 9 a.m.
· Masonry work will start January 8.
· Concrete floor leveling is to start January 12. The amount of time needed for concrete to set will affect work in the warehouse.
· Steel work and delivery of metal door frames are scheduled for January 14
· Fire protection and HVAC systems work is starting approximately January 14th.
· Metal stud framing is to start January 18 now.
· Electrical work will depend on cooperation by ComEd.
If any work related to the expansion needs to be done in the occupied area of the library, such as electrical or plumbing, we are to have two weeks warning and if it affects anyone in the library, we will let staff know. We will also keep the public abreast of any closures or changes in service.
Staff parking is being moved from the northwest corner of the property to along the south side of the building starting January 4, 2010.
