execute a contract with Southwest Industrial Constructors, Inc , in the amount of 589,866 and 60 calendar days for the replacement of the floor slab in the equipment bays of Fire Station No 22 DISCUSSION The equipment bay floor at Fire Station No 22 is constructed of structural concrete channel beams and shows signs of excessive setting deflection as evidenced by failure of the concrete topping The Fire equipment cannot be parked in the facility in a fully loaded, ready status A structural engineer under contract to the City has evaluated the floor and advised the City that sudden collapse is possible if fully loaded trucks are parked in the bays It was determined that it would be necessary to replace the floor slab in order to allow the equipment to be safely parked inside the bays Two alternative floor replacements were evaluated (1) installation. of a concrete floor on a gravel subgrade and (2) construction of a structural concrete floor on piers The second alternative was recommended as a permanent solution in order to prevent the floor movement which would have been expected with the first solution A design and cost estimate was prepared for the second option Due to increases in the construction cost estimate it was decided to bid the project The following bids for this project were received on August 3, 1995, after being advertised on July 6 and July 13, 1995
