About the Project
Our team played a pivotal role in the masonry restoration project at Municipal Auditorium, serving as Façade Design Engineers and overseeing extensive construction administration services as the Quality Control Manager for masonry construction.
Initiated in 2010, the comprehensive exterior restoration addressed deferred maintenance, including masonry, decorative metalwork, doors, windows, and exterior lighting systems. Our meticulous approach involved complete repointing of mortar joints, cleaning accumulated atmospheric and biological growth, and addressing deteriorating masonry and stabilizing medallion sculptures. In our role as Quality Control Manager, we maintained stringent control over unit price repair items, ensuring that the work adhered to best practices and project specifications.
