## Hilltop Gardens Review and Closeout
|
|
|
|
[[conest-senior-review]] and [[conest-manager-review]]
|
|
for [[hilltop-gardens]]
|
|
with [[josh-ford]] filling in for [[joel-jansen|Joel]].
|
|
|
|
### Florida Considerations
|
|
|
|
#### Building Codes
|
|
|
|
8th Edition Florida codes (2023)
|
|
are based on 2021 I-Codes.
|
|
|
|
#### Site Poles
|
|
|
|
Expect direct burial poles in Florida.
|
|
|
|
Southeast and Florida exclude concrete in proposals,
|
|
Florida usually considers site pole foundations excluded in this,
|
|
Southeast does not.
|
|
|
|
#### Construction Type and Wiring Method Selection
|
|
|
|
South Florida gardens may be concrete for hurricane resistance
|
|
but [[ibc-construction-types#Type III Combustible|type III construction]].
|
|
Romex is allowed in this case.
|
|
|
|
#### Automatically Controlled Receptacles
|
|
|
|
Florida Building Code does not require automatically controlled receptacles
|
|
* [ ] investigate
|
|
|
|
#### Fire Alarm Inspections
|
|
|
|
South Florida fire alarm inspections are conducted at night:
|
|
+20% of fire alarm budget for overtime.
|
|
|
|
### 520Hz Smoke Detectors
|
|
|
|
The 120V 520Hz smoke detectors qualified in the proposal
|
|
are limited source (Home Depot).
|
|
|
|
No change to takeoff necessary.
|
|
Josh changed the name and pricing of the item in the extension.
|
|
|
|
### Post-Tensioned Slab Considerations
|
|
|
|
In a 6in post-tensioned slab
|
|
other than fixture branch and floorboxes
|
|
may not be feasible to run in deck,
|
|
especially subfeeds.
|
|
|
|
### Site Misc
|
|
|
|
In the WBS,
|
|
1 (Site) does not have EL or FA breakdowns.
|
|
Site EV chargers, Fire Alarm Loop
|
|
go in Site Misc.
|
|
|
|
### Rigid Elbows for Secondaries
|
|
|
|
PVC elbows in secondaries
|
|
* [x] check if intentional
|
|
* Elbows were RMC, the takeoff name was not changed.
|
|
|
|
### Panel Schedule Error
|
|
|
|
EV charger breakers were erroneously shown as 20A on some panel schedules.
|
|
(Should be 80A)
|
|
|
|
### Fixture Branch Length
|
|
|
|
Fixture branch length tighter for Gardens.
|
|
Josh shortened some 20fts to 15ft.
|
|
|
|
### Material Pricing
|
|
|
|
Re-extend all before supplier link.
|
|
|
|
### Josh's Review Strategy
|
|
|
|
Check middle and end
|
|
beginning is likely to be rough:
|
|
asking questions
|
|
refining
|
|
|
|
Expecting significant [[pdi-bid-estimating|Bid]] to ConEst delta in slab work.
|
|
|
|
branch length per opening
|
|
openings per unit
|
|
|
|
Unit sqft * 1.5
|
|
|
|
800sqft unit = 1200ft cable per unit
|
|
in whole job, not just unit.
|
|
|
|
"True Garden" feeders about \$150 per unit.
|
|
This is not a "true Garden".
|
|
|
|
### Bid Sheet
|
|
|
|
See Bid Sheet for actual values.
|
|
|
|
[[corwin-fluit]] updates the Bid Sheet quarterly.
|
|
The Bid Sheet was initially a temporary measure for COVID.
|
|
|
|
Usually large delta in units if "Unit Tabulation" sheet is not utilized.
|
|
|
|
### Breakdowns for Remote Horn/Strobes in Units
|
|
|
|
Remote strobes in units were erroneously taken off in `System` = "EL - Electrical".
|
|
The correct `System` is "FA - Fire Alarm".
|
|
|
|
[[units-takeoff]] had the correct direction for this case at the time of takeoff,
|
|
but I was not meaningfully consulting the note.
|
|
|
|
### Labor Plan
|
|
|
|
Count of bathroom exhaust fans per unit
|
|
is usually one less than smokes
|
|
|
|
Do not consider data outlets in above openings per unit.
|
|
|
|
Labor Plan:
|
|
"Amenity" is Interior Amenity.
|
|
Put Exterior Amenity in "Other".
|
|
|
|
Excavation is covered by site work increase labor factor.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Firestopping: \$35 per unit
|
|
Colorado: \$75 per unit
