At one of the two areas, there is a cable with a damaged sheathing and there is some mild corrosion of the post tension cable where it has been exposed.

The edge and bursting bars as well as the post tension anchors are corroded.

Some of the existing bars as well as the post tension cables were too close to the slab edge with inadequate cover.

CONTRACTOR: Structure -Con INSPECTED BY: Mike Lue WORK INSPECTED: Concrete balconies LOCATION: November 23, 2105 Ft. Pierce, Florida PROJECT MGR: Randy Fitzgerald WEATHER: Sunny Unit 901 W �� We inspected the balcony slab at unit 901 and observed the following: The slab has been shored, and the edge was removed and the reinforcing bars have been replaced, repaired and coated. There are (13) post tension cables that have been locked off, spliced and extended through the slab edge form. Full depth edge areas 21'x2'-3,3'x4'-6,4'-4x4-10,10'-4xl'-7 Full depth repairs (6) areas 0-10" x l'-6 at pt cable splices There are bottom reinforcing bars along the north edge that need raised to provide adequate concrete cover. There are bars at the slab south edge of the slab that need to be cut back. There are three reinforcing bars that have is yet to be coated with corrosion inhibitor. All pt cables have been spiced and taped. Unit 208 There are 3 corroded pt cables found just east of the building column that requires repair. This area appears to be an old repair due to the color of the concrete aggregate. The cables are bands that appear to run under through the column and under the south sliding glass door. One of the cables is broken completely through and one end has retracted past the end of the casing. The other two cables are also corroded. The sliding glass door may require removal for proper repairs depending on whether there is adequate room to effectively lock off the cables. The broken cable requires replacement. H 0 -Z,.
