Special Inspections
Mr. Peterson:
As requested by Headwaters Construction, I have reviewed the attached photographs
(provided by Headwaters Construction) regarding the Structural Masonry Reinforcement.
Connect Testing & Inspection was not present during the structural concrete placement
nor the grouting of the masonry units, nor the installation of the epoxy dowel embeds in the
interior slab and footings.
In the attached photographs as well as our report from December 16, 2022 I observed
vertical reinforcement coming out of the foundation walls in what appears to be spacing of +/-
32” on center. In other pictures there appears to be horizontal reinforcement in the masonry
wall at the approximate elevation of the bond beams.
There are also pictures showing drilled holes on the interior floor that have the
appearance of being prepared for vertical reinforcement for interior walls.
It is my opinion that the contractor most likely placed the required reinforcement in
general conformance with the project documents, but we cannot confirm without further
investigation using X-Ray type scans of each of the walls.
Sincerely,
Jacob Christensen
