After four days, I have semi-adopted a morning routine. I arrive to work around 7:00, for the next 15 minutes I check my Outlook account for any new messages, catch up on espn.com and check my Gmail. This 15 minute window provides me with a little time to continue waking up and get myself ready for the workday.
Today began with my above mentioned routine. Sometime around 8:00 Chuck came to Trevor and me and asked us to go join him in one of the conference rooms. There we would be on a conference call with Shawn Zeiger. We began to discuss the A-1 documents which are mainly the beginnings of the subcontractors contract. The issue Chuck and the other members of the Hotel Alessandra team had with the document was the length. It was far too wordy and had many repetitions.
We went through the document section by section either omitting or changing the wording with the intent to condense the contract.
The contract contains information regarding cleanup, material staging, rules and regulations and other information specific to a subcontractors scope of work. During the meeting Chuck had mentioned that there were certain thing contained in the document that was continually omitted after reviewing it with the subcontractors.
After the meeting, I was tasked with comparing submittals we had received from our concrete subcontractor, TAS. I took the information on the materials they submitted for use on the project and compared it to the specification required from the architects and engineers. An example of the things submitted are concrete sealer, vapor barrier, concrete curing compound, etc.
For the rest of the afternoon I continued to tinker around with the materials tracking log.
