Objective • Discuss the following: • Hopple Project – • Items addressed in Plans that are typically missed and avoided substantial change orders. • Issues encountered to date. • Common Constructability Issues
Items Addressed • Existing Abandoned Pedestrian Underpass • Located Underneath Central Parkway Near Cincinnati State
Items Addressed • Contractor anticipating 175 CY of Low Strength Mortar will be needed to fill the abandoned underpass. • Based on a bid price for a similar item of work on the project, this translates to an approximate cost of $43,750
Items Addressed • Existing Retaining Wall Near Pier 3 of Structure HAM-52-2044
Items Addressed • Contractor’s Means and Methods to install proposed sheeting, and to remove retaining wall, was to “stab in” sheeting until they rested on footer of existing retaining wall. Retaining wall footer was then to be removed so sheeting could be installed to tip elevation.
Items Addressed • During this process, the south side of the sheeting shifted into the location of the proposed footer.
Items Addressed • The south footer was redesigned to take into account the as-built location of the sheeting. The contractor filed a claim through the Dispute Resolution Process to receive compensation for this work. • The approximate cost of the claim was $40,000
Items Addressed • Removal of Existing Retaining Wall P Structure
Items Addressed • Contractor encountered the old H-Piling of the retaining wall while excavating for proposed MSE Wall 31.
Items Addressed • Contractor initial position was that this was a changed condition due to the fact the piling was not shown in the plans. • The piling is accurately shown in the plans that are referenced in the As Per Plan Note.
Items Addressed • Shoring for MSD Items
Items Addressed • Contractor implemented their own shoring design for Junction Chamber 9, which ultimately failed.
Items Not Addressed • Abandoned Subway Tubes
Items Not Addressed • Contractor proposed installing 36” storm conduit across Central Parkway to maintain drainage on the Connector Road
Items Not Addressed • The City of Cincinnati granted permission to close Central Parkway over a weekend to complete this work.
Items Not Addressed • While installing the storm conduit, the contractor encountered the abandoned subway tubes.
Items Not Addressed • Revised plan pages were provided to address conflicts. • Manhole at Station 121+50 was moved approximately 35’ east to avoid subway tubes
Items Not Addressed • The Department settled the Dispute Resolution Process with the contractor for approximately $70,000.
