PROJECT: Mortared Stone Retaining Wall	No. 1	In Attendance: Richard Brimmell

CONTRACTOR: Victoria Stonescape	Project No: 12-88
OWNER: Greg Burke	Time: am
CONTRACT REF: Greg Burke

ASPECT OF PROJECT REVIEWED:

The recently constructed, mortared stone retaining wall to the southwest (toward Esquimalt Harbour) of the house.

OBSERVATIONS:

The wall is semicircular in plan and to a max. height of 3.6 m (12 ft) through its centre section. The ground slopes up to the northeast and the ends of the wall closer to the house are relatively low. The wall is built on sound bedrock with evident natural keys. Libral reports that the wall is of substantial cross-section, which is consistent with their past work. The wall is backfilled with shotrock.

REMARKS/RECOMMENDATIONS:

The wall is approved for its intended purpose of retaining patio fill in front of the home.

DISTRIBUTION:
