RE: Vehicle Damage - Deb's Restaurant
4229 Main St. W.O.#lOlt
On September 19, 1984 I made an inspection to determine the extent of damage caused by
a vehicle collision. into the north concrete block wall. During that inspection, I
discussed the methods of repair with Ed Adams of Excell Cons. My observation is that
the extent of structural damage is primarily to the concrete block wall with no
observed displacement of the roof or exterior canopy framing. It appears that a glulam
beam bears on the wall approximately above the point of impact where column or pilaster
reinforcing occurs. The method of repair should consist of removing approximately 16
lineal feet of the concrete block wall with the ends of thi removed portion being a
vertical reinforced grouted cell. The reinforcing in the masonry can be removed at the
damaged portions,' provided at least an 18" lap with new reinforcing is provided. The
glulam beam can be temporarily shored to the floor slab during the masonry removal and
replacement. The masonry replacement should consist of the same reinforcing as the
existing wall. A portion of the ceiling and the soffit adjacent to the removed portion
can be removed' to obtain. access for replacing the masonary walL I believe that a
qualified masonry contractor can perform this repair in a satisfactory manner so that
the original structural ~apacity is provided.
1 hope this report is satisfactory for your purposes at this time. Please contact me
if you have further questions. Thank you for this opportunity to be of service.
Very truly yours,
Emile .Mortier, P.E.
