Purpose

Called Marcus at 1:30 PM to notify him of truss delivery and discuss framing start timeline.

Notes

Truss Delivery Notification

  • Informed Marcus that roof trusses were delivered this morning (~11:30 AM)
  • Trusses staged on cured concrete slab
  • Complete engineering documentation package received

Additional Deliveries Expected

  • More materials incoming: Marcus confirmed additional deliveries are scheduled
  • Equipment mobilization: Crew will bring equipment to site to position materials before construction begins
  • Materials will be pre-staged in optimal locations for efficient framing workflow

Updated Start Date

  • Previous window: November 24 - December 1, 2025
  • New target date: December 3, 2025
  • Slight delay from original window, but allows for:
    • All material deliveries to complete
    • Equipment staging and site preparation
    • Crew availability coordination

Documentation Bin for Contractor Materials

  • Owner initiative: Will place bin outside for contractors to save product documentation
  • Purpose: Collect manuals, material specifications, and product information for:
    • Garage door openers
    • Garage doors
    • Windows
    • Siding
    • Other installed products
  • Benefit: Ensures all product documentation and warranties are retained
  • Location: To be positioned in accessible area for contractor use

Truss QR Code System

  • Marcus noted: Each truss has a QR code tag
  • Functionality: QR codes link to exact specifications for each truss
  • Benefits:
    • Crew can verify correct truss placement by scanning code
    • Instant access to engineering drawings and load calculations
    • Reduces installation errors
    • Provides digital documentation for inspections
  • Tag details: Shows truss ID, mark designation, weight, job number, and QR code link
  • See PXL_20251118_180222873 for example of QR code tag

Decisions

  • Start Date: Framing to begin December 3, 2025 (target date)
  • Material Staging: Crew will handle equipment and material positioning
  • Documentation: Owner will provide bin for product documentation collection

Action Items

  • Place documentation bin outside in accessible location before Dec 2
  • Label bin clearly for contractor use (“Product Documentation - Manuals & Materials”)
  • Monitor for additional material deliveries before Dec 2
  • Confirm start date with Marcus if no call received by Nov 26 ✓ (Marcus called Nov 26 — confirmed Dec 2 PM or Dec 3 AM start, see 2025-11-26 - Call - Marcus Framing Start Confirmed)

Timeline Impact

Previous Schedule (from Nov 13 call)

  • Framing start window: Nov 24 - Dec 1, 2025
  • Marcus would call one week before crew mobilization

Updated Schedule (from today’s call)

  • New target start: December 3, 2025
  • Approximately 1-week delay from earliest date in original window
  • Allows for complete material delivery and staging

Reasoning for Adjustment

  • Ensures all materials onsite before crew arrival
  • Allows equipment positioning for efficient workflow
  • Crew availability aligned with material readiness
  • Better coordination reduces weather-related delays

Recent Developments (Nov 18, 2025)

  • Trusses delivered this morning (41 pieces, 5,359 lbs)
  • Engineering documentation received (8-page packet)
  • Parking waiver obtained from city inspector Terry
  • Concrete cure complete (19 days since Oct 30 pour)

Construction Readiness

  • Foundation: Fully cured and ready
  • Utilities: All conduits installed through slab
  • Radiant heating: Pressure tested and verified
  • Site grading: Complete
  • Trusses: Delivered and staged
  • Weather: December start allows crew to work in dry conditions before heavy snow

Next Steps

  1. Before Nov 26: If no call from Marcus, reach out for confirmation
  2. Before Dec 3: Place documentation bin onsite
  3. Dec 3 (target): Framing crew mobilization begins
  4. During framing: Collect product documentation in bin as materials installed
