Leggett Building Project Activity Update – August 6, 2021

Dear Neighbors,

Thank you for your interest in the Leggett Building construction project at the Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus. We will strive to keep our neighbors informed about significant construction events with this weekly email notification.

Upcoming activities are listed below:

• Earthwork
  Sheeting and shoring activities are underway and will continue for approximately three to four more weeks. Cut and fill excavation for the new building footprint is underway. This includes continued excavation and grading of the site as well as removal of the materials from excavation.
• Upcoming Saturday Work
  As a reminder, upcoming work related to the sheeting and shoring efforts will require site activities to occur on the next two Saturdays, August 7, and August 14. The sheeting and shoring work includes grouting the anchors that hold the support of excavation system in place. Each anchor hold requires at least one re-grout, which must be performed at the proper time in the curing process. Anything that is grouted on Thursday or Friday will need to be re-grouted on Saturday to ensure the work is effective and the sheeting and shoring system is safe. Barton Malow’s subcontractor will be on site starting at 9 a.m. and finishing by 2 p.m. on Saturday, August 7 and Saturday, August 14, and will operate in accordance with the local sound ordinance hours. We expect these activities to be completed by Saturday, August 14.
