| EPS insulation excels at Pikes Peak |
| |
|
Considering the project’s high altitude and geographical location, the Summit House at Pikes Peak will experience some of the world’s most extreme weather conditions. To withstand below freezing temperatures, snow, hail, and high winds, the new structure requires heavy insulation across the building envelope. Employed within precast concrete sandwich panels, EPS’ high, stable thermal performance will play an integral role in optimizing the facility’s energy consumption amid the volatile conditions that inevitably domineer a Colorado fourteener.

| Improving the appearance of hot-dip galvanized steel |
| |
|
The appearance of batch, hot-dip galvanized (HDG) steel can be an enigma. Variations in initial coating appearance from one project to the next and the natural weathering of HDG steel often cause confusion and misaligned expectations within the design community. Design professionals may expect all galvanized steel to consistently maintain a shiny, smooth, or spangled finish common to that of galvanized sheet metal (think HVAC ductwork or corrugated panels) and end up with a matte gray coating once the HDG steel is installed at the jobsite. This can lead to frustration on projects where a certain aesthetic is expected. |

AN ERROR IN CONFORMED DOCUMENTS – NOW WHAT? |
|
What happens when the A/E accidently omits an addendum item from the conformed documents? Are those gold-plated widgets the owner insisted on no longer in the contract? Does the A/E need to issue their first change order to include missing items? Should the contractor just ignore conflicts like this because, after all, the owner-contractor agreement references the addenda, too?

| SUBMITTAL ACTION - NOT REVIEWED FOR CAUSE - A PLAUSIBLE RESPONSE? |
|
We are reworking our submittal procedures spec section and associated review stamp, and seeking a way to keep low priority submittals from piling up in our court beyond the allotted review period. Has anyone ever included a review stamp action: “Not Reviewed - Submitted out of Sequence,” and/or “Not Reviewed - Review Contingent on Receipt of Related Items,” or similar?
