PROJECT DESIGN INTENT
The following is a description of the project design intent:
1.City of Waukee contacted Slingshot Architecture on
March 23 to investigate what may have caused the
gypsum soffit over the front entry to the main building
to fall onto the lower roof. Upon investigation of the
entire building, multiple locations of soffit have
deteriorated. In consultation with Baker mechanical
Group and the City of Waukee, we discussed the
humidifier, a project approximately 3 years ago to
insulation/seal the original envelope and the proposed
solutions. The recommendation from Baker Group
was to turn off the humidifier as it was over designed
and if needed a new smaller unit could be installed
next winter. Slingshot would focus on replacing the
perimeter soffits and repair miscellaneous insulation
discrepancies discovered during the soffit removal as
well as a few specific known areas which were not
fixed during the previous project.
2.Assumed budget $97,000 based upon Hansen Co.
estimate.
