Kaufman Residence 1131 Jefferson Ave. Louisville, CO 80027 Specifications — Kaufman Residence These specifications are based on the structural plans by JVA Consulting Engineers, Louisville, Colorado. Note* - Engineer designed to reinforce the roof structure and carry the live and dead loads down through the interior of the structure to the foundation. Working in strict accordance to the plans will require dismantling the drywall, some electrical, interior trim, asbestos covered HVAC ductwork and furnace, concrete floor in basement and then pouring additional steel reinforced concrete, installing structural members to carry the loads transferred from the roof down through the main level interior wall to the basement floor. We suggest and have bid accordingly to reinforce the roof structure so that loads are transferred to the exterior walls. This minimizes any interior dismantling and reconstruction through much of the interior and makes it possible for the homeowner to occupy the premises throughout the construction process. Prior to commencing any construction activity building plans approved by the City of Louisville Building Department will need to be provided which provide structural requirements. Any deviations from this proposal will be done for the estimated cost or savings plus or minus a 15% management fee (7B General Supervision). 1A.
