9:02 pm
hearing and move to continue this for one week supervisor breed? >> oh, yes one week. >> let me ask the city attorney is that enough time for feedback from the parties and i'd leave that to the party i suggest we have a date by which the appellant and applicant and the departments do so to file additional or irresponsible brooeflgz so the board can make appropriate discussions when you come back. >> and i was, of course, supporting that mostly because i am hearing two different things and am not certain of the legal
9:03 pm

9:04 pm
two weeks but i'll work to get it. >> so two weeks to get information. >> because of the surgery i have scheduled. >> let me scotland the real party of interest how much time to provide additional information. >> two weeks is fine with us we could possibly get you the information before that. i want to clarify the space that's a one story extension of the existing building is shared by the tenants above ate a laundry room as well it's my understanding they also use it. and if upper to see this portion here there's a photograph let me show you the photograph.
9:05 pm
>> president chiu. >> sir why don't i suggest, sir. why don't i suggest rather than you trying to present this consider asking both parties to present the information and bring back the hearing three weeks from now to give the departments time to respond >> any only question who shall and i i direct this information to. >> this board of supervisors and actually we did that i don't know who screened them but we'll be happy to provide them again. >> okay. i i understand may 20th i want to give our city departments to review the information and give feedback unfortunately, there's not a meeting over is 27 so it will be

9:14 pm
>> as i mentioned before we continue to mitigate any lost time we're pretty much getting back to schedule there. just the standard overview shot there just to remind you how we divide the projects up with the central and western zone and the eastern zone where the excavation was completed earlier this year and we just pored the final mud slab and the overall timeline continues to the october 17th substantial completion date and you will notice a move on the structural steel we're hoping to pull that
9:15 pm
back but just with all the coordination and the actual materials and fit up and everything that goes with the start of that erection between the structural steel pieces and i'll explain some of that here shortly they have lost a few weeks there but overall we don't anticipate an impact to the schedule as soon as we get the steel out here and start the erection process webcor/obayashi is going to work on changes there so otherwise the basic milestones remain the same with the 2017 date being for substantial completion of operations. >> grade is a big area of work right now continues to be with shim shim construction and we
9:16 pm
started back up early april in area 11 and area 12 we'll pore at the end of this month and the far east of the project this is the 5-foot thick foundation slab and we'll be done with those shortly the lower the lower con course walls. just an update on overall progress we've since the excavation was done we changed our graphics up a little bit we no longer have the big layout map it's a simpler presentation of what's going on obviously once the mat slab is completed we have the columns and first and second wall lifts and you can see that
9:17 pm
we're over 90 percent complete complete in the central area with both the columns first lift and almost the second lift concrete the walls you have to get the first 2 wall lifts up and we'll continue to use that just some of the progress that's been made and as i said before some of the photos include mar and april photos so the bracing is continuing that's the bracing being used in that area and the diagonal corner areas they then use a 45-degree brace and that the wall pores continue in that area and you can see the column pore activity in the far west end what we used to call zones one and two again wall pores and rebracing continues. in the central areas where the
9:18 pm
bulk of lower con course slab is there's continued operations of the man lift and material lift there and the decking is going in. some more shots of the decking the rebar started last week and as i said before there's a pore anticipated at the end of the month or early june and rebracing also continues a little further east of the lower con course decking work and in the far eastern zone there was a slab pore pore number 11 and pore number 12 will be at the end of this month and this is the reinforcing steel for pore number 12 one of the highlights of that area it's the foundation for the main light column in the middle of the project there and those are the anchor bolts you might recall the slab there is 5 feet thick you can see the anchor bolts
9:19 pm
are 6 to 7 feet long. the geothermal work finished up and the subgrade preparation before the mud slab and the mud slab going in and the waterproofing continuing on the eastern zone so on the cast nodes we're working through the first full release the first 3 columns the very first column denoteses the total number of cast notes being fabric ated and in process and cast machining columns but there's a total of 56 and a total of fifty have been shipped to the steel fabric ate ors and i'll show you a slide of that in just a moment we're doing very well with the cast node production no quality control issues and
9:20 pm
the work is getting delivered to the steel fabric ators that's what it looks like. and the finished face that attaches the structural steel and the level of machining that goes on. the cast nodes being delivered to the factory and structural steel plant in or egon and actually on its side test the connections layout the connections between the cast nodes and the structural steel basket column pipes to make sure each section fits correctly take it apart bring it down here and start erection so this is a diagram of the setup being put in place right now and we'll probably witness some of those layouts late may middle of june time frame.
9:21 pm
>> those are just dummy columns. >> those are the actual columns these are your basket columns surrounding the entire structure laid on their side so the top piece the park level and the middle structural steel member that connects the various pipe columns is your buff deck level and the high end where the folks are is shown on the, man lifts scissor lifts starts at the ground level and we'll go up to see those and bring up life photos instead of the diagram but they are creating this on the colombia river across the river so we're just about out of this finally the first and second street obviously done and beall street done and fremont street
9:22 pm
done this month and the final connect or piece to be done in july. and zone 4 mud slab completed this week as i said and the waterproofing protection slab will be going down and jumping ahead to june foundation walls and will be into the lower con course either late may or june 10th they are trying to improve that and we'll actually be prepping for the structural steel arrival and placing slab 14 as we move through the summer the contingency tracking and i know there's discussion on this later but those have been on various changes and i'm happy to answer questions on that. >> as far as our labor
9:23 pm
breakdown continuing along the same path 33 or 63 percent overall and 63 in the east bay the san francisco numbers continue to be right around 18 percent which is great and again that's over a million craft hours those are the apprentice hours through the life of the project through the end of april and the trades are up a little bit 18 hundred individuals logged into the certified payroll system so i say 1800 different individuals that have actually touched the project and trades they belong to happy to answer any questions? director reiskin. >> how is it not impacting the
9:24 pm
schedule. >> we're making plans to make that up in the erection process a year and a half long so. >> they will start late and take less time? >> right weekends the welding is the big question a lot of welding in the project and if we can put more crews on it. like any brand new activity there's always a learning curve so we anticipate that the i'm sure steve from webcor/obayashi can speak to this more if you like but we anticipate that curve to peak early and consistently improve from the first time we pored the foundation slab there's been significant improvement in the overall durations so we're anticipating that to occur as
9:25 pm
well but primarily taking advantage of the days we didn't count which are the weekends to try to catch up if need be. >> thank you. >> any other questions? seeing none. >> thank you steve and now we have dennis presenting our project labor agreement quarterly report. >> thank you maria happy to report on the project labor report starting with the trade package update and progress to date for students veterans and adults and the reporting trends as i wrap up the report starting off with the administration and labor we had number 9 of our joint administrative committees held on february 20th the agenda is
9:26 pm
construction progress and apprentice programs and veterans and we also talked about how there's no work stoppages and is no labor incidents and all skilled labor all the needs are being met and there was 4 safety incidents within the first quarter but my reporting is from january 1st to march 31st so the numbers are a little different but for the first quarter 2 of those were a lost time fortunately both of those guys were back to work quickly but they were off for a little bit but they are both fine. >> to go through the trade packages that are currently out there right now we have two firms that were qualified and we're going through the interview process at this stage of the negotiations. we anticipated next month
9:27 pm
depending on negotiations same as temporary facilities we are in the interview stage you know just past the negotiations i mean i take that back we're into the negotiations with one contractor right now. when that is complete that will come to the board anticipated june but could be july depending on negotiation timelines. metal stairs that one the bids were received we talked about at the last bid that was rejected now incorporated into one of the current contracts and i do want to move onto the key ones that we've been focusing a lot now the mechanical electrical piping and fire suppression the first one being 10.2 plumbing bids due for right now next month and 10.3 the mechanical due next month and electrical
9:28 pm
due next month and also fire sprinkler and suppression due next month and value engineering and various components that come up it's anticipated but you know, if needed those may push a month depending to give the contractors enough time to absorb if there's any kind of changes that are incorporated as addendum so depending on how those bids come in that's anticipated to come to the board next month as well and the last one bus ramps bids received march 6th and that's on the agenda for today for an award recognition so i'll go through that further on agenda item number 7. >> this is high school students
9:29 pm
we're back into it it's almost summer time we've been looking for interns through the various different groups remember last year where we brought in all the kids that's a fun time it's great to expose students to what we do and it's fantastic and in addition to that the mtc program is included and of course turner and webcor/obayashi are doing it as well so the entire project is looking for interns this summer. veterans ted who you have seen in the past presented an ever ready bunny as an advocate for veterans he was in north san diego promoting careers and construction but also the program itself has been throughout united for veterans has been most successful right now in hiring veterans and continue --
9:30 pm
webcor/obayashi works with the building trades and another thing that ted has reported he's actually outreaching out to 29 palms and the bases himself so ted is available anytime after the board meetings if we wanted to meet and talk further about all the efforts he puts into the veterans more than happy to and works with all the subtrade packages to bring veterans onto the project in the growth sector as well. progress to date with the adults tim donovan in our jaec meeting reported a very robust apprenticeship program and they are really starting to bring on a lot the electrical trades are
