Walls along the perimeter of the structure present linear cracking (close to the openings <br />elements, such as windows and doors). <br />Concrete lintel beams present linear cracking, corroding the rebar. <br />Crawl space presents concrete grade beams with presence of severe linear cracking and <br />spalling, rusting and corrosion of the existing steel reinforcement. <br />Based on the inspection performed, and the foregoing facts, we noted the current <br />building has some deficiencies that might compromise the integrity of the structure in <br />case of a hurricane or storm scenario. <br />VI. LAB CONCRETE TESTING <br />Shubin & Bass engaged NV5, Inc. to conduct concrete laboratory testing on the building <br />to obtain compressive strength, carbonation depth, and chloride content. The laboratory <br />extracted three (3) concrete core samples of sizes 3.00 in diameter by 6.00 in length <br />approximately, which also were used to test for carbonation and chloride. <br />-Concrete compressive: the results of the testing for concrete strength are tabulated and <br />charted as follows: <br />Core <br />Compressive Strength <br />Number <br />[PSI] <br />1 -Main House Footing <br />4,240 <br />2 -Boat House Footing <br />4,020 <br />3 -Boat House Footing <br />4,860 <br />A <br />Page 24 of 98 35 <br />
