Specific Project Requirements

The property located at 1040 East 7th Ave, Vancouver is a three (3) storey, eighteen (18) unit residential dwelling. There is underground parking as well as front and rear patio areas. Minor landscaping in areas around the site. The date of construction is reported to be 1974.

The concrete slab/deck surfaces around the site which are over the parking garage area appear to be inadequately waterproofed thus allowing water to pass through in the garage area. There are signs of possible rusting rebar noted with efflorescence. The perimeter drainage is failing though it appears that there is a sufficient number of drains around the perimeter of the site. It appears hydrostatic pressure is most likely the cause of water ingress through the concrete into the parking garage area and the elevator pit.

The prime Consultant’s responsibilities will include but not limited to:

Conduct a full Building Envelope Condition Assessment Report with recommendation with estimated budget costs for repairs.
Prepare construction document.
Monitor the contractor’s quality of work and overall compliance of construction with project drawings and specifications.
Observe and document contractor’s performance during construction.
Provide contract administration, on-site project management

Exterior cladding (replace with rain screen assembly)
