Description
The project involves repairing masonry and structural issues at the W.G. (Bill) Hefner Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Salisbury, North Carolina. The work includes repointing, replacing brick, painting, and other tasks to restore the exterior walls of seven campus buildings. The project requires a phased construction approach, with deductive bid alternates for different building groupings. The contractor must ensure safety and infection control measures during construction, as the work will occur outside of occupied buildings.
Some key tasks include:
• Repointing and replacing brick
• Painting and applying joint sealants
• Replacing lintels and coping
• Cleaning and repairing precast concrete window sills and surrounds
• Protecting existing trees and utilities during construction
The project requires careful planning and execution to ensure that the work is completed safely and efficiently, with minimal disruption to the medical center's operations.
