Chris,
See below request from the contractor. We have eliminated the form liner in favor of a surface applied thin brick veneer. This change has been made on the Freeport Parkway job as well.
The detail on sheet 53 (Phase 2A) shows a 2" inset for the form liner. The question is can they make the whole wall 1'-0" thick with no inset.
My opinion is we want the veneer to run the whole height of the wall, and we will apply a capstone to create the overlap at the top. This is the decision we made on the Freeport wall,
and we want to be consistent with that wall.
Please provided guidance on Questions 2 and 3.
Thank you.
Keith

Robert,
We need a little clarification for the cast in place concrete retaining wall.
1. Since we are placing veneer on the wall is the thickness 1'.
2. To construct the wall there will need to be a construction joint between wall and sidewalk base do we need to place a keyway at this location and what should it look like.
3. What is the expansion joint spacing.
