Below is a estimate of the cost for us to prepare the waterline construction drawings and permit them through the City. Topographic Survey Allowance (By subcontractor) — $1000 Easement Preparation & Survey Allowance (By Subcontractor) _ $1800' Waterline Construction Drawings and Permitting Allowance (By Schultz Engineering Hourly) — $3250 We will also need any cars located in the area of the proposed waterline to be relocated prior to the Topographic Survey. Let me know if you would like to proceed or give me a call with any questions. Thanks, Deven Doyen, P.E.

Executive Summary Dudley Engineering was engaged to perform a structural condition assessment of the Bryan Auto Recycling Sales and Glass property structures. The results of our observations and analysis reveal the following: • Building 1 and Building 1 Norpth Canopy will require substantial remedlation to be brought into code compliance including adding new rigid frame, strengthening the existing rigid frames and adding bracing. • Building 1 West and South Canopies are beyond repair to bring into code compliance. We recommend that they be removed_ • Building 2 can be brought into code compliance with relatively minor remediation. • The Office building can be brought into code compliance with relatively minor remediation. Although a number of items were found to not be code -compliant, the majority of the issues were related to their ability to withstand a design wind event of 110 miles per hour (MPH). Under normal wind conditions (less than 20 MPH), the structures are stable as -is and are not a threat to life -safety. We recommend that the remediations as outlined in the drawings and the report be completed in a timely manner so that if/when a code -minimum design wind event occurs the buildings will maintain their structural integrity. Scope of Work Dudley Engineering's scope of work was to perform a limited, visual, structural condition assessment of multiple structures on the property (reference site plan below). The assessment was to include the following: Scope 1. Structural evaluation of primary structural frame and foundation for all (3) buildings to determine whether the structure is sufficient to maintain structural Integrity under code -prescribed loading (2009 International Building Code (IBC)) Scope 2. Dimensioned and scaled floor plans for each building. The floor plans shall indicate exterior and Interior walls, as well as doors and windows. Structural columns If visible will also be located. Background The Bryan Auto Recycling Sales and Glass property Is located at 2873 north Harvey Mitchell Parkway, Bryan TX, 77807. The buildings on the property consist of an Office, Building 1, Building 2, Building 1 South Canopy, Building 1 West Canopy and the Building 1 North Canopy. The office is a wood framed on cinder block piers. The other structures are composed of steel framing construction. Page ( 3 �1 Vol. C'� Pg. "-.2 /,% Figure 1: Site Plan Items Not in Compliance The results from our structural analysis indicates that multiple steel members of Building 1 and Building 2 are inadequate for their current implementation per the 2009 IBC code. Building 1 and Building 1 North Canopy: • The steel pipe columns are not adequate to support the code minimum wind pressures. • The roof purlins exceed the maximum allowable span for their size and loading. • The wide flange beams in the rigid frames are subject to lateral torsional buckling and require bracing. Building 1 West Canopy: The current structure has numerous members and framing conditions that will not support code -minimum loading. Building 1 South Canopy: Building 2: The current structure has numerous members and framing conditions that will not support code -minimum loading. The wide flange beams in the rigid frames are subject to lateral torsional buckling and require bracing. Page j 4 Vol:: P5 eZ 6 I • The W10 beam on the western side of the north and south faces are inadequate to take the code minimum wind pressures The beam to column connection for the middle bay of columns is not adequate to transfer the shear -and moment forces. Office: • The foundation is not anchored to the groundwhich is required to res&shear'and upliftloads generated from the wind. Discussion and Recommendations Office Building • The office Building needs to be anchored to the ground using earth auger anchors for wind uplift -resistance. Building 1 • Thebottom flange ofthe-W12 beams'needta be braced in order to provide adequate capacity to the frame, refer to the structural drawings. The pipe columns need to be stiffened to increase the moment capacity. • The roof purlins need to be replaced or reinforced to increase their capacity. As an alternative, new moment frames -need to be added to both reduce the load on overstressed pipe columns and decrease the span of the purlins. • The 8 -inch roof beams on the south canopy need to be reinforced or replaced. • The west canopy would need extensive strengthening. Therefore, our recommendation is to remove the.west canopy. • Cable X -bracing needs to be added, refer to the structural drawings. Building2 • Reinforcement of the moment connection by installing beam stiffener plates on the center beam line of Building 2 (Reference Grid 2.2). • The bottom flange of the W10 beams need to be braced in order to provide adequate capacity to the frame, refer to the structural drawings. • Acceptable methods for stiffening the W10X35 beams include the welding of a WT beam to the inside web of the W10X15. • Cable X -bracing needs to be added, refer to the structural drawings. Limitations Dudley Engineering offers no warranty regarding the condition of concealed construction or subsurface conditions beyond what was revealed in our review.
