Come Join us to learn about Procurement opportunities for an upcoming UT – High Den-sity Storage Addition project in Austin. The approximate 10,000 S.F. High Density Storage building will be used for remote storage of library materials. The new addition will be a warehouse style building with pre-cast insulated concrete wall panels, Ff-60 concrete floor slab and the roof framing will con-sist of steel bar joists and metal deck. The high-density area has no windows, and as few penetrations of walls and roof as possible. The building will have separate HVAC and dehumidification system with particulate and gas filters to maintain a constant temperature at 50°F +/- 5°F and relative humidity levels at 30% RH +/- 5%. During these subcontractor outreach sessions you can learn more about the project, meet the project team, discuss scope of work packages, learn about UT requirements and how to pre-qualify with Turner. We are also hosting a pre-proposal conference on August 4th for the early proposal packages (precast panels, steel and shelving) that will pertain to the

project shown in the second attachment. In addition, we will hold a sec-ond pre-proposal meeting on September 7 for the remaining scopes in which I will send out once the date arrives closer. Thank you for being interested in working with us. We look forward in meeting you! Sean Mokhtari | Field Engineer | Turner Construction Company mobile 210.202.7245

A First Step Toward Predicting Deadly

Construction Accidents After years of successful work in limiting injuries, big industrial owners and contractors are recog-nizing the need to shift more effort to the stub-bornly persistent problem of fatalities. The systems and practices that have dramatically cut injuries over the years, and that were expected to have the same impact on less frequent, more deadly mishaps, have failed to work as antici-pated. That fact bothers members of the Construction Industry Institute, the research consortium for many of the world’s biggest industrial companies and their engineers and contractors. Amid the histograms, best practices and benchmarks discussed at the consortium’s annual conference in National Harbor, Md., Aug. 2-4, several speak-ers expressed frustration with the uptick of fatalities among CII’s member companies, and with a roughly parallel increase in the entire industry. “Perhaps we have been resting on our laurels,” Gregg Slintak, director of safety, health and fire prevention for Con Edison, the New York City-based electricity, steam and gas utility, told the CII members. He had served as chairman of a safety-research team that created a risk-measurement tool geared to high-impact, low-frequency events—the deadliest mishaps. Based on what’s currently available, Slintak said, the committee’s tool may be “a big step into the leading space and a first bite out of the apple for predictive safety” for these types of accidents. Bechtel's Grim Assessment His comments resonated with other sentiments at the conference urging improvements to industry practices and outcomes. Brendan Bechtel, president and chief operating officer of the big engineering and construction-management firm controlled by his family, built a presentation at the conference around a grim trifecta: 98% of projects experience cost over-runs or delays, 80% is the average cost in-crease, and 20 months is the average schedule slippage. Bechtel said the cost-increase figure is based on megaprojects and that the statistics demonstrate the possibility of dire consequences if improvements aren’t made. “Our house is on fire,” Bechtel told the more than 500 people in the audience. “If we don’t address [the various problems], we may cease to exist as an industry and … customers will cease to have confidence that we can deliver.” The resolve about fatalities fits the spirit of self-criticism. Data from the U.S. Dept. of Labor reveal that construction job sites over recent decades have been made dramatically safer and that the lost time injury rate is down 81%, from 6.8 in 1989 to 1.3 in 2014. Companies using various CII--advocated techniques—a firm safety commit-ment by top-line leaders, detailed safety planning at the crew level, empowerment of staff mem-bers to stop unsafe work, involvement of craft-workers in peer safety observations, one safety staff member per 50 to 100 craftworkers, regular drug testing, and the use and measuring of active, leading-edge safety indicators—have done even better.

Stubborn Rate of Fatalities But that heartening transformation has failed to materialize when it comes to fatalities. Over the five years from 2005 to 2010, years when busi-ness slowed, construction employers and safety regulators managed to drive down the U.S. construction fatality total from 1,184 to 780. From 2011 to 2014, the deaths ticked upward, to 802, as the economy improved. CII’s members recorded only 15 fatalities in 2013, but the next year the total hit 30, and then in 2015, the latest year for which data is available, it was 42. Craig Martin, the former CEO of Jacobs Engi-neering, said that more of an effort must be made to understand risk-taking behaviors that could actually increase when employees feel confident that they are protected by sturdy safety systems and procedures. “I hear a lot of talk that if we just get people to do the right thing, the right way, every time, we won’t have any inju-ries.” “I’m not suggesting not having good processes and procedures and tools and personal protec-tive equipment is a good idea,” said Martin. “I think all this may be necessary. I’m just not convinced that it’s sufficient.” One CII member, employed by a major industrial company, said his firm will be devoting fewer resources to individual-incident root-cause analysis and placing more emphasis on high-severity events. Slintak and his research teammates studied low-frequency, high-energy accidents and identified 16 common precursors for predictive potential. Each precursor was basically a tip-off of poor work planning, pressure to hurry or vulnerability to deadly high impact or energy. Examples of the individual factors include crew members being unaware of standard operating procedure, the presence of fatigue and a congested workspace. Looking for Accident Precursor Clues Careful observation of the job site and frank discussions with field staff and supervisors should reveal much of what needs to be evalu-ated. One of the research committee’s principal investigators, Matthew Hallowell, a construction engineering professor at the University of Colo-rado Boulder, says assessments of the precur-sors work best when carried out by people with at least three to five years of construction-industry experience. In some of the most intriguing conference ses-sions, participants were asked to watch a video interview with a job-site foreman who was preparing a crew to demolish a tank containment system. A specialty crane subcontractor has just arrived on site to remove the confinement tank from the existing system using a tandem lift technique. In the video, the confident foreman describes the preparations for the task and shows a can-do attitude, but he nevertheless discloses that the safety supervisor is not on site all the time and that certain key equipment for the task is not available. The audience members prepared their scores based on what they learned. The foreman in the video, it turned out, was an actor. But the real trouble he and his team were courting was familiar—and it was clear that best safety practices were not being observed and that the work the crew was preparing to perform needed to be delayed despite the extra costs involved. When the audience turned in their scorecards, the potential risks and the scores they assigned using the precursors listed for the new tool were off the charts.

Construction Manager At Risk

The Austin City Council voted Thursday 7 to 1 with three abstentions to add a

$720 million mobility bond package to the Nov. 8, 2016 municipal ballot. The

Council also passed a separate resolution that establishes a contract with voters,

committing the City to provide for voters a tax bill impact calculator online and to de-

velop and construct the proposed projects in a way that prioritizes the reduction of

traffic congestion and delay, and maximizes transit operations, affordable housing and

local businesses, among other goals.

The single bond proposition includes funding for three categories of projects:

$101 million for Regional Mobility Projects to address congestion and enhance safety. That amount includes:

$46 million for Loop 360 $17 million for Spicewood Springs Road east of Loop 360

$30 million for Anderson Mill Road, the intersection of RM 620 and RM 2222, and Parmer Lane between SH45 and Brushy Creek

$8 million for Old Bee Caves Road Bridge

$482 million for Corridor Improvement Projects

that implement Corridor Mobility Development Program Report recommendations for:

North Lamar Boulevard, Burnet Road Airport Boulevard East Martin Luther King Jr./FM 969 South Lamar Boulevard East Riverside Drive Guadalupe Street If approved, funding would also provide for implementation of Corridor Report recom-

mendation for Slaughter Lane and/or William Cannon Drive. Preliminary engineering

for improvements would be conducted on:

William Cannon Drive Slaughter Lane North Lamar/Guadalupe Street

Rundberg West Rundberg East East Colony Loop Road East Martin Luther King Jr./ FM 969 South Congress Avenue Manchaca Road South Pleasant Valley Road

$137 million for Local Mobility Projects:

$37.5 million for sidewalks

$27.5 million for implementation of Safe Routes to School to be divided evenly among the ten City Council Districts

$26 million for urban trails with a transportation and mobility purpose

$20 million for bikeways with a transportation and mobility purpose

$15 million for fatality reduction strategies for projects listed on the Top Crash Location Intersection Priorities Improvement List $11 million for the sub-standard streets/capital renewal, including Falwell Lane, William Can non Overpass Bridge, FM 1626, Cooper Lane, Ross Road, Circle S. Road, Rutledge Spur, Davis Lane, Latta Drive/Brush Country, Johnny Morris Road, and Brodie Lane If approved, the initial tax increase could affect 2018 tax bills.The amount of increase

each year would depend on when the bond debt is incurred. The $720 million debt

may result in a tax increase of an estimated 2 ¼-cents per $100 valuation. For the

owner of home with a taxable value of $250,000, the impact is estimated to be approxi-

mately $56 per year or $4.67 per month based on the City tax rate for this year.

Following Council direction, staff from various City of Austin departments launched

Mobility Talks in March 2016, an effort to engage the community on transportation and

mobility initiatives and priorities.

Approximately 7,000 people participated in Mobility Talks, and a summary of the feed-

back along with funding scenarios for consideration was presented to the Austin City

Council in June.

In the next few weeks, the City will produce a 2016 Mobility Bond Voter Information

Brochure that will serve as an educational resource to the community.

The brochure will outline the projects that would be funded if voters approve the propo-

sition and provide the ballot language that voters will see at the polls. The City re-

sources will also include more information regarding the estimated tax impact of the

bonds. The brochure will be available at AustinTexas.gov/2016Bond and at City of

Austin facilities such as City Hall, recreation centers, and public libraries.

Residents must be registered to vote by Oct. 11 to participate in the

Nov. 8 election.
