Pasadena Fire Station 39 Brick Wall Delamination & Cracking Repair

The contract involves a detailed visual structural assessment of the City of Pasadena Fire Station #39, located at 50 Avenue 64, Pasadena, California. The inspection revealed that the building is generally in good condition; however, localized damage was observed in the exterior brick masonry walls, including cracking and delamination of the outer brick wythe from the grouted collar joint. The potential causes for these issues include the absence of tie wires at the ends of walls and water infiltration leading to rusting reinforcement, which causes grout and brick spalling. Repair strategies for these defects are outlined in attached drawings, providing guidance on addressing the cracking and delamination. The project is managed by the Pasadena Public Works Department, Engineering division, with a solicitation titled "Pasadena Fire Station 39 Brick Wall Delamination & Cracking Repair," posted on October 2, 2024, with a response deadline of October 30, 2024.
