Repairs to the area around the west entrance of Olson Campus Center continued this week. Our partners at G5 Construction have removed masonry in more areas of the outer walls and in the tunnel to expose more of the damaged supports and further assess the extent of structural deficiencies. As work progressed, it was discovered that the ramp/chapel wall mortar joints were degraded more severely than initially assessed. This additional brick has been removed and will be replaced.
Like last week, this week includes work that is at times noisy and will produce some dust. We appreciate your patience and flexibility in utilizing (or not) the areas of OCC not directly related to the construction work.
For reminders about safety, project impacts, and communication, see my introductory message about the project.
As always, thank you for your support of our operations team and their work,
Rob Verke
