Progress Payment #9 in the amount of $646,376.01 due to PCN3 Inc of Los Alamitos, CA for the City of Hawthorne New Senior Center (Project #24-03).
 

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

  Staff recommends that the City Council approve this Progress Payment #9 and Change Order #6 to PCN3 Inc of Los Alamitos, CA.

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 in 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 slab rebar has been installed and inspected, the 2nd floor slab/podium has been framed and inspected, and the 2nd floor slab/podium has been poured and inspected. Contractors have to wait ~28 days for the concrete to harden to the recommended strength and fix any imperfections during the 28 days, then they can proceed with slab coating, handrails, utility conduits, 2nd floor walls/columns and beams.
