You are preparing an XYZ Construction internal progresspresentation. The project was on schedule until you startedexcavation for the new storm water drain. On the first day ofexcavating for the storm water drain you encountered an unknownunderground 6 inch cast iron water line. The line is active andgoes under the new parking lot. After consulting with the City ofMelbourne engineer, you have been directed to relocate the line sothat it does not go under the parking lot. Your estimating staffprovided a cost of $4,500 based on previous subcontracts for thiskind of work. Complete a detailed estimate sheet showing theduration required to cut the existing line, pump grout into theabandoned pipe under the new building, excavate, install, andbackfill approximately 110 feet of new 6 inch cast iron line aroundthe new building footprint. In your presentation to the XYZmanagement explain the impacts of this unknown site condition onyour schedule and what you believe should be done about it.
