DISCUSSION:
This project includes providing all services, labor, materials, permits, insurance, tools and equipment needed, in accordance with the Plan and Specifications to successfully and safely complete the renovations and addition to the existing Senior Center.
The work will consist of renovating the existing Hawthorne Senior Center situated on the northwest side of the existing Memorial Center facility. The renovations will bring the existing building, approximately 8,600 SF, up to current building codes and standards. The work will also consist of adding a first-floor extension and a second story, approximately 9700 SF of indoor space. There will also be some exterior landscaping to integrate the building into the park and create an outdoor courtyard. The work will also consist of providing all services, labor, materials, permits, insurance, tools and equipment needed, in accordance with the Plan and Specifications to successfully and safely complete the renovations, expansion and addition to the City of Hawthorne Senior Center located at 3901 El Segundo Blvd, Hawthorne, CA 90250.
During the construction phase of the project, necessary authorization will need to be granted to the City’s Project Engineer(s) to conduct further testing, substitutions, and/or removal of materials such as new public right of way, new concrete slab between the New Senior Center and existing Memorial Center, etc.
Work done to date includes: demolition of the existing senior center structure, excavated trenches for underground plumbing and electrical conduits, trenching for elevator pit, concrete poured for the west expansion portion of the project, vertical steel reinforcement and preparing of steel columns and beams for the west expansion portion of the project. Excavation for new storm drain line, elevator pit and column footing for the existing portion of the building (East Side). Due to existing conditions uncovered during the demolition/excavation phase, it led to a few change orders, like repair and/or replacement of underground utility pipes, expansion of demolition (slab/ceiling), etc. Exterior and interior CMU walls for the west 1st floor addition and the existing east 1st floor is 100% completed and 1st floor ceiling and floor/deck for 2nd floor is being prepped for slab on grade. Elevator pit and walls on the existing portion of the project were completed. Underground, utilities are nearly completed, and they are working on completing the new main electrical box installation with Edison.
The 2nd floor roof wood beams have been installed, temporary wood rail has been installed, and metal framing for the second floor has commenced. The first stairway leading from the first floor to the second floor on the exterior side has been installed and the 2nd stairway on the interior is currently being welded off site and will be delivered to the site by the end of March. A new roof is to be installed on the existing senior center structure. Continuation of mechanical, plumbing and electrical trades.
