Observations and recommendations

In the framework of the physical audit we have identified certain observations based on the examination of the design/technical documents presented to us, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory. The observations are presented below:

1. Observation During winter the melted water has heavily flown over the walls from the gutters, since the outlet pipes were stuck with the ice. As a result, the humidity has flown inside from the seams of the stone strands making certain parts of the inner walls wet and damaging them (refer to pictures 4, 13, 14).

Recommendation We recommend placing certain ice-melting cables on the roof slopes and inside the outlet pipes to further avoid such things.

2. Observation According to the plan, the lamps in the sports-hall are fixed to the ceiling, 6.8m high from the floor (refer to pic. 19). The damaged lamps cannot be changed, if necessary.

Recommendation We recommend changing the places of the lamps and placing them to the available height by protecting them from the ball hits with a protective cover.

3. Observation The heating batteries of the gym are placed openly. As a result, they are exposed to hits of balls or other sports equipment (refer to pic. 20).

Recommendation We recommend covering the batteries from the front with wooden baluster shields.

Conclusion

During the physical audit the construction works of the musical school were overall realized, and the school was being exploitated.

The mentioned observations and recommendations should be implemented until the end of the warranty term of the construction works.

Observations identified during the previous year visit were taken into account, and the ommissions are emitted by the construction company, particularly: - the absent fixtures are realized in the roof by a steel wire (refer to pic. 21); - a handrail is placed on the side inclined platform because of the difference of more than 45.0sm (refer to pic. 22).

Except for the mentioned observations identified in the result of the examination of the design/technical documents, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory, the construction works are generally realized in compliance with the working plan and the existing construction norms and rules.

Description of construction works

The construction works of Nalbandyan village secondary school are implemented by “GLOMMA” PC by the request of "Hayastan" All-Armenian Fund.

The school consists of a three-storey educational corpus and one-floor sports hall. The educational corpus consists of 3 corpuses, which are separated from each other by deformation stigmas but connected by an internal territory. These corpuses are placed in front of each other and have a П-form. The central educational complex is located along the village street and has 57.5x10.5m planning sizes, the two vertically mounted lateral buildings are of 30x10.5meters, gym is of 22.6x9.71m. The school has a large fenced area. The walls of the building are constructed with 50-55cm size “Midis” type masonry. The height of the floor of the education building is 3.3m. the height of the floor of the gym is 5m. There are 2 staircases in the building. The roof of the school is renovated, new heating system is realized. New metal-plastic doors and windows are placed. According to the developed design plan, the following works are implemented:

- new r/c frames and walls-diafragmas are realized to increase the territorial heaviness of the educational corpuses; - new staircase is being built in the central corpus; - reinforcement of the walls and floors; - realization of the new bathrooms; - construction of the new shelters and platforms; - construction of the new engineering networks; - destroying the gym, which was in a bad condition;

- 14 -

Report on physical audit of construction projects of “Hayastan” All-Armenian Fund for 2016

- construction of the new gym building; - new metal fence is realized along the street in the main entrance of the building; - cleaning of the frontispiece of the educational corpus.

Observations and recommendations

In the framework of the physical audit we have identified certain observations based on the examination of the design/technical documents presented to us, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory. The observations are presented below:

1. Observation There are slopes in the seismic stations dividing the corpuses, alongside the station (refer to pictures 21, 22).The cover in the seismic stations should also be separated by means of constructive components (by 5-10mm width crack-prohibitting stapling). There are lots of such solutions in the sphere of design and construction.

Recommendation We recommend referring to the design organization to develop a respective solution. The constructor will realize that to furtherly keep the cover safe.

2. Observation The heating batteries of the gym are placed openly. As a result, they are exposed to hits of balls or other sports equipment (refer to pic. 10).

Recommendation We recommend covering the batteries from the front with wooden baluster shields.

3. Observation Aqueous cracks have been found on the coverage realized around the gym corpus (refer to pic- s 13, 14). According to the norms, to prevent the aqueous cracks each 6-8m of the coverage concrete should be separated by 10-15mm width anti-aqueous station.

Recommendation We recommend realizing 10mm width stations in the cracks through a cutting tool cutting the coverage stone and the concrete layer till 100mm depth. We also recommend filling the stations with a special adhesive sealant material.

4. Observation The ends of the water outlet pipes of the roof from the garden part have 2m height (refer to pic. 25). As a result, the water flowing from the pipe makes the wall wet.

Recommendation We recommend bringing the pipe to the floor or legthening them making the water flow far from the wall.

5. Observation The handrails of the school ladders have horizontal separations. According to the norms, the handrails of the school ladders should have vertical separations for the security purposes (refer to pic-s 15, 16).

6. Observation A lot of works on RA Armavir region Nalbandyan village secondary school financed by the Fund were not included and envisaged by the design (plan).

 Certain windows on the staircases are on the staircase platform level (refer to pic-s 23, 24). As a result, the glasses are exposed to accidental hits. Besides, the children may break the glass, damage themselves, go outside accidentally, etc. We recommend placing balusters in front of the windows.  The repairment is absent from the building surroundings from the garden side (refer to pic-s 26, 27). We recommend renovating the territory from the garden side.

The above-mentioned works are reasonable to include in the project or implement by another project (according to the benefactor's agreement) to complete the construction of the building and to review the omissions.

Conclusion

During the physical audit the construction works of the musical school were overall realized, and the school was being exploitated.

The mentioned observations and recommendations should be implemented until the end of the warranty term of the construction works.

Except for the mentioned observations identified in the result of the examination of the design/technical documents, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory, the construction works are generally realized in compliance with the working plan and the existing construction norms and rules.

Observations and recommendations

In the framework of the physical audit we have identified certain observations based on the examination of the design/technical documents presented to us, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory. The observations are presented below:

1. Observation The coverage at the anchored of of the external walls of the school gym is partially damaged (refer to pic-s 2, 13, 14).

Recommendation We recommend repairing the damaged parts of the coverage or otherwise cover the anchored part with basalt tiles.

2. Observation The heating batteries of the gym are placed openly. As a result, they are exposed to hits of balls or other sports equipment (refer to pic. 4).

Recommendation We recommend covering the batteries from the front with wooden baluster shields.

3. Observation Aqueous cracks have been found on the coverage realized around the gym corpus (refer to pic- s 15, 16). According to the norms, to prevent the aqueous cracks each 6-8m of the coverage concrete should be separated by 10-15mm width anti-aqueous station.

Recommendation We recommend realizing 10mm width stations in the cracks through a cutting tool cutting the coverage stone and the concrete layer till 100mm depth. We also recommend filling the stations with a special adhesive sealant material.

4. Observation The design/plan did not envisage balusters in front of the windows of the staircases (refer to pic. 5). The window of the staircase is on the staircase platform level (refer to pic. 5). As a result, the glasses are exposed to accidental hits. Besides, the children may break the glass, damage themselves, go outside accidentally, etc.

Recommendation We recommend placing balusters in front of the windows.

5. Observation The side and upper frames of the window are thermally insulated with the foam when placing the upper lighting windows of the gym. However, the side and upper holes are open (refer to pic-s 23, 24). As a result, the foam will quickly be spoiled under the sun.

Recommendation We recommend covering those holes.

Conclusion

During the physical audit the construction works were already finished in the building.

The mentioned observations and recommendations should be implemented until the end of the warranty term of the construction works.

Description of construction works

The oncological dispanser of Stepanakart has been implemented by "Narine and Geghani" Ltd, according to the assignement of NKR Ministry of Urban Development and apporved by architectural board of Stepanakert. Furtherly the plan was developed by "Narine and Geghani" Ltd. As a result, the building was redesigned, new facades were developed. The oncological center is designed for 35 patients. It has a rectangular architectural composition and is 46.6.0 m x22.2 m. The construction has three floors and a basement. The basement is connected to the Republican Hospital with a tonnel. The main entrances are organized from the eastern side by 0.00 mark. The basement is planned for military reserve rooms and laboratories. The first and second floors are designed for the administrative part and wards. The surgery room is on the third floor which has an exit to the roof of the second floor. The utilized roof is covered with polished marble slabs. Deck part (below 0.00 mark) is covered with polished marble. The walls which are above 0.00 mark are covered with polished travertine tiles. Internal works have been carried out by using organic substances and bacteria and mold resistant materials. The windows and the exterior and interior doors are made of aluminum profile. The building is equipped with two elevators, a standard one for passenger and another one for patients in beds. The constructive scheme of the buuiding represents a constructive framework of a system of rigid units. The structure of the building is fully implemented by reinforced concrete. The foundation is strip. The size of the collums is 500 mm x500. The roofs are made of reinforced concrete. The external walls which are 400mm thick are implemented with the help of infill frames in the pumice

concrete regular shape with 390x190x188mm size blocks. All reinforced concrete constructions which have contact with soil surfaces are waterproof with 2 layer bitumen mastic:

Engineering networks The engineering networks- heating, water supply and water removal sistems, electricity and lighting, fire warning system, patient oxygen pipelines are duly implemented by the project design in the building.

Improvement The adjacent panels of the structure are paved with polished marble slabs. The sidewalks are made of concrete tiles. The roads are paved.

Observations and recommendations

In the scopes of the physical audit and as a result of the study of design and technical documentation, as well as as a result of the examination of buidling construction works we reported some observations, which are presented below:

1. Observation There are no door stoppers on the floors with some of the doors of the buidling as a result of which being fully opened the doors hit the wall behind and damage them (refer to pic. 15).

Recommendation We recommend instaling doorstoppers.

2. Observation The sinks do not have siphon pipes, instead there are ripple pipes. This is wrong solution, as the convoluted ripple pipes will be easily clogged and in order to clean it the pipe will have to be dismantled. In case with siphon pipes, the problem is solved with the help of cleanout pipe which is under the siphon pipe (refer to pic. 24).

Recommendation We recommend installing siphon pipes under the sinks.

3. Observation The side walls close to the sinks placed in the corner parts of certain wards and doctors' rooms are not covered with tiles (refer ro pic. 25). As a result, the water may make the side wall wet destructing it during the time.

Recommendation We recommend covering the walls with tiles with 60-70cm width and the height should be equal to the tiles on side walls.

4. Observation There are some 5-10mm cracks between the 1-2 windows' stone windowsills and windowpanes, causing immersion of water, melted snow and insects (refer to pic. 16).

Recommendation To fill the cracks with waterproof liquid material.

Conclusion

During the physical audit the construction works were already finished in the building, however the oncological center was not functioning yet due to lack of medical equipement. The mentioned observations and recommendations should be implemented until the end of the warranty term of the construction works. Except for the mentioned observations identified in the result of the examination of the design/technical documents, as well as based on the examination of the location of construction works implemented in the territory, the construction works are generally realized in compliance with the working plan and the existing construction norms and rules.

Description of construction works

The project of the School was designed by “Arkhitrav” CJSC according to the order of "Hayastan" All Armenian Fund. The project was developed based on the conclusion of the technical condition of the building provided by the NKR Urban Development. The school was built in 1970. No renovation works were carried out during the exploitation of the whole building. The school represents strip foundation building composed of 3 blocks. The roofs are made of factory made r/c punched tiles. The carcass of the roof is wooden and the cover is made of corrugated asbestos sheets. Since the school does not meet the present requirements of the school construction, the following amendments were applied by the project. The nine-year school of two parallel classrooms is being renovated, some extra classes for children with special needs were added, and two pre-school groups are being planned. The school workshops, laboratories, kitchen unit, infirmary have been improved. Special attention was paid for initial military training classroom, foreseeing an adjacent armory and shooting space. According to the concusion of the technical condition of the building seismic vulnerability level was improved. All structures of the blocks are built with longitudinal and connecting transverse walls. In areas where the cross compliance of the walls does not comply with the norms requirements, r / c frames were installed. Since the width and length of the building proportionality does not comply with the norms of stone buildings, it was necessary to carry out seismic stitches in longitudinal parts. All external openings were reinforced. Outer walls reinforcement has been invisaged. During the reinforcement of the wall the outer plaster is cleaned and piles are placed in the drilled holes for connecting rebar nets. Reinforcement of covers with r/c was invisaged. Partitions are made in lightweight concrete block. External windows and doors are invisaged to be made of metal, the interior doors of MDF. The interior design works are plastered with alabaster and

cement gravel, further painted with latex paint. The ceilings are plastered with alabaster with further painting. Suspended ceilings are also envisaged. According to the current norms a new staircase is envisaged in the central block, new metal staircase is also envisaged in the school and kindergarder blocks. The existing external staircase of the gym was dismantled and instead a new r / c staircase was built. The current r / c staircase of the basement in the first block was dismantled and new r / c staircase was placed. The staircase leading to the technical floor of the second block is envisaged to me metal. Facade works are envisaged with marble slabs coverings, plastering and painting, marble cornice. All metal constructions and elements are painted with anticorrosive paints. The new roof covering is metal tile roofing. It is invisaged to install snow retention systems on the roof.

Observations and recommendations

In the scopes of the physical audit and as a result of the study of design and technical documentation, as well as as a result of the examination of buidling construction works we reported some observations, which are presented below:

1. Observation The construction design/(plan) is given to a professional expertise to NKR KPP CJSC. However, no expertise report exists on the design.

Recommendation We recommend acquiring an independent professional organization's expertise report on the construction design.

2. Observation During construction, work safety rules are violated. The staircase of the general block and the side parts of the stair flight were left open (picture 3, 10) before the installation of the handrails, due to which workers can fall down.

Recommendation We recommend installing temporary barriers before setting the handrails.

3. Observation Gym heating batteries, according to the project plan, should be placed openly, causing hits from balls and other sports equipment.

Recommendation After completion of the renovation the batteries should be covered with wooden grid shields.

4. Observation During the reniovation works the newly installed doors and windows became dirty.

Recommendation We recommend assigning the constructor to cover the doors and windows with plastic film, fixing it with an adhesive tape.

Conclusion

During the physical audit construction works were in progress. The construction maintenance book existed in the building site. Construction works were held without major violations.

The mentioned observations and recommendations should be implemented during the construction works.

3. Observation The electrical panel is planned to install on the staircase. This violates the requirements of point 84, chapter VI.4 of RACP 21-01-14 construction norm.

84. In the staircases it is not allowed to deploy pipelines with flammable gases and liquids, built-in cabinets, besides the cabinets designed for fire hydrants and communication lines, electrical cables and wires (with the exception lighting wirings for staircases and corridors), to embed accommodations of any significance, to provide exits from passenger elevators and hoists, as well as to deploy equipment coming out of the wall surface up to 2,2m height from the surface of rung and landing.

4. Observation Three windows from four on the roof do not have opening shutter: the shutters are directly attached to the window frame and the approach to window is closed (refer to pic-s 21, 22).

Recommendation We recommend implementing the windows with opening shutter, and cut the across parts of window.

5. Observation Some interstices remained between certain window frames and windowsills (see pictures 9,10).

Recommendation We recommend eliminating those interstices. Besides, the underneath of window frame needs to be filled with foam, in order to ensure insulation.

6. Observation Some connections of roof base elements are implemented incompletely, particularly: a) The connection of diagonal brace and rafter is incomplete (see picture 12). On the switching sector, on the chevron, needs to be done internal cut, in which the diagonal brace is installed. b) The implemented truss bar (refer to pic. 18) does not match the project design. c) The stand is not designed by the project design under the angular chevron, when the chevron flight reaches up to 6.0m. The constructor has installed a stand under the chevron, but not in a right way (refer to pic. 20). First of all, the stand must lean against the ground sill, which must have 2.0 m length. The connection of the stand and the rafter must be as described in point a). d) Diagonal brace lean node on ground sill is not properly implemented (refer to pic-s 6, 11).

Besides the above mentioned one we can notice in the project the excess of diagonal braces in some parts of roof. Particularly from “A” pivot axis to “D” axis reaching couples are leaned against the purlins with two places, therefore there is no need to place diagonal braces under the couples.

Recommendation We recommend applying to the design Organization to thoroughly develop and provide the drafts for those nodes.

7. Observation According to the design the gym roof is closed with eaves wall, in its two front sides (refer to pic-s 23, 27). This solution makes complications in the roof structure, causing drainage difficulties. Besides, the rectangular shape of the front part seems rude and unattractive, than if it were triangular. At the same time it is not appropriate for excessive weight and cost.

Recommendation We recommend for further siting of buildings redevelop, make the roof with two slopes and with triangular front.

8. Observation The platform and stairs are designed on the exit side of gym by the project. The stairs down from the platform are intersected with the iron/concrete column rising out of the wall, which reduces the width of staircases from 1200 mm to 800 mm (refer to pic-s 34).

Recommendation We recommend either to turn the stairs to the opposite direction 1800 or to the direction of door opening, and avoid the above mentioned problem.

Conclusion

During the physical audit construction works were in process. There was a construction maintenance journal with respective notes and comments.

Recorded observations should be eliminated during the construction by working order.

Besides the above mentioned observations found out as a result of visual examination and the study of design and technical documentation, construction works were implemented in accordance with the approved work plan and meet the requirements of existing construction norms.

The anchor part of the building is revetted with marble slabs. The fringes of the window are covered with polished marble slabs. The remaining external parts of the walls are decorated with sand cement plaster, designed with putty and are ready for facade paint. The external stairs are implemented with rubble masonry and are revetted with polished marble slabs. The inside walls are decorated with plaster, putty and are ready for painting. The walls of bathroom and laundry are coated with ceramic tiles. The floor coatings is from wooden parquet and ceramic tiles. The heating system, electricity and lighting, water supply and sewage system are implemented in the building. It should be noted that the design documents are made in a foreign language: Russian.

Observations and recommendations

During the physical audit as a result of visual examination of construction works, as well as the design and technical documentation provided to us, we implemented certain observations, which are presented below.

1. Observation The construction design/(plan) is given to a professional expertise to NKR KPP CJSC. However, no expertise report exists on the design.

Recommendation We recommend acquiring the independent professional organization's expertise report on the construction design.

2. Observation The external stairs of the main entrance gave a residue, as a result of which the aqueous cracks appeared on the stair structure joining border of lateral walls of stairway (see picture 13, 14).The problem occurred because of the absence of aqueous seam.

Recommendation Later, in order to avoid the occurrence of stair cracks on the stairway horizontal area, we recommend implementing seams with 10mm width, by cutting the concrete cover and the stone cover up to 100 mm depth. Fill the seams with waterproof liquid airtight material.

3. Observation In some windowsills and window frames from stone there were gaps left of nearly 5-10 mm (see picture 15), where could easily penetrate atmospheric water, melted snow and insects.

Recommendation We recommend filling the gaps with waterproof liquid material.

4. Observation It wasn't planned to install basalt closures on the four corners of the building walls (refer to pic. 16).

Recommendation It is proposed to implement tin aprons on the horizontal sections of closures, in order to protect the stone from rain and snow, and prevent the future deterioration.

5. Observation The heating of the kindergarten, according to the plan, will be implemented through the wood fuel boiler installed in the boiler house. In case when the village has gas heating boilers and this will be cheaper and more effective.

6. Observation On one part of the fence serving as a supporting wall aqueous crack appeared (refer to pic. 17), damaging the finishing plaster and stone cap. Since the crack is aqueous, after renovating the plaster and the closure it will appear again.

Observations and recommendations

During the physical audit as a result of visual examination of construction works, as well as the design and technical documentation provided to us, we implemented certain observations, which are presented below:

1. Observation The construction design/(plan) is given to a professional expertise to NKR KPP CJSC. However, no expertise report exists on the design.

Recommendation We recommend acquiring an independent professional organization's expertise report on the construction design.

2. Observation The lintels of doors between partitions were implemented in a wrong way (see pic. 6,7). The linters must either be from concrete at least 100mm height or must be implemented with special blocks designed for linters.

Recommendation We recommend dismantling the wrong linters and implementing the new ones in a right way. Apply to the designer for developing a detailed plan for node.

Conclusion

On the day of physical audit the construction works of the house were in process. The recorded observations should be eliminated in working order, during the construction. Besides the above mentioned observations found out as a result of visual examination and the study of design and technical documentation construction works were implemented in accordance with the approved work plan and meet the requirements of existing construction norms.

The following is also done for the traffic security:  Road signs  Barriers  Signal columns  Road lining During the physical audit land works were in process but still there were many collapses. Additional construction works were carried out on this part, i.e implementation of drainage systems on only five sections of 1,196 gts.m. an average of 2.5-3.0m deep. At the end of 10km part of the 3rd section of Sotq-Qarvajar crossroad, where there no collapses asphalt pavement works of the inner layer h=6cm 35,000 sq.m, large asphalt concrete h=6cm, 30,747sq.m, small asphalte concrete h=4cm, 30,747 sq.m were implemented according to the construction acts. The remaining parts of land cover is completed, the ground cover is in satisfactory condition, where covering work can be carried out.

Observations and recommendations

During the physical audit as a result of visual examination of construction works, as well as the design and technical documentation provided to us, we implemented certain observations, which are presented below:

Observations  This part differs from others with a great number of serpentines and bends. It has a complex geological structure of ground cover and the existence of groundwater, which complicates the implementation of construction works. As a result, slides and collapses constantly occur on the road. It was proposed to transfer the axis of the road to the extraction side if it is possible. A number of measures have been implemented, but did not give any noticeable result.  According to the plan developed by the project organization as an additional measure to prevent landslides, monolithic concrete abutment was built on the side of the road padding. During this year's physical audit implemented by us, we observed that the abutment has numerous cracks and stands on the verge of collapse. It shows that the slides and collapses continue to exist.  According to another plan developed by the project organization drainage systems are intended to implement. Relevant working projects have been submitted. Drainage systems were implemented in accordance with the working projects submitted, with a depth of 2.0- 2.5m.  On one part the project organization offered to restore the collapsed area with rocky grounds. Relevant working projects have been submitted. Restoration works have been implemented.  Because of landslide the output of culverts was completely covered with ground.  During the observation, we noticed that there are many cracks and ground water on that area of road that came out to the surface. These cracks could cause a collapse at any moment.  Because of the severe winter and heavy snow partial collapse of slopes have occurred, that flows to the side streams and prevents the water drainage from road. These must be quickly removed.

Recommendations  We recommend performing additional geological and hydrological studies, since the depth of sliding ground and the level of underground water in unknown. First of all it is necessary to find out the reasons of these collapses occur. If it is proved to be landslide process, it will be necessary to think about changing the axis by leaving the landslide area. After that will become clear whether it is worth to implement extra costs for additional structures and systems, or it will be necessary to think about roundabout.

 The asphalt concrete cover realization should be made after giving final solutions to collapses and landsides as a result of additional geological and hydrological studies.

During the physical audit as a result of visual examination on the rest areas of the road we did not notice any significant omissions and shortcomings.

Conclusion

During the physical audit road construction works were in process. There was a construction maintenance journal with respective notes and comments made by representatives of organization realizing technical supervision and follow-on supervision on technical quality control. Technical inspection acts and laboratory experiment results of road cover are in hand. The recorded observations should be eliminated and the recommendations should be implemented in working order, during the construction. Besides the above mentioned observations found out as a result of visual examination and the study of design and technical documentation, the construction works were implemented in accordance with the approved work plan and meet the requirements of existing construction norms. The results of additional thorough studies and deep examinations on the mentioned part of road are essential for the solutions of above mentioned problems and for further normal exploitation of the whole road.

Description of construction works

The design of 4.8km part of Alishan - Sarsang of NKR Vardenis-Martakert highway is realized according to the order of "Hayastan" All Armenian Fund. The design works are realized by "Road Construction" Institute Co. Ltd. The newly-built road is passing along NKR Martakert region, and is a part of Vardenis-Martakert highway, as well as a part of "North-South" freeway, the construction of which is of great importane for the development of the whole territory. According to the order, the newly-built road is of the 4th technical type. Its project is prepared according to RACP 4th-11.05.02-99 normative documents and typical projects. The carriageway of the designed part does not have an asphalt concrete cover. The existing artificial buildings are filled. New pipes should be placed. During the designing process the following technical normative acts were adopted:  Land cover width - 10m,  Carriageway width - 7m,  Pillar width – 0.6 – 1.5m,  The roadbed is from asphalt concrete,  The largest lengthwise curvature - 90%,  The smallest radius of horizontal curves - 55m,

The profile volume of land works is 109,421 cub.m, of which extraction is 78,715 cub.m, and the padding is 30,706 cub.m. The volume of side streams is 2,411 cub.m.

Report on physical audit of construction projects of “Hayastan” All-Armenian Fund for 2016

The following construction works are to be done for the road cover recovery:  Gravel layer - 10cm  Road metal basis=16cm with bitumen distribution 4,12 t/1000 sq.m,  Large asphalt concrete - 6cm,  Small asphalt concrete - 4cm:

Repair of abutments, placement of 10 kw pillar and replacement of a connection wire is anticipated. The following measures are taken for the traffic security:  placement of 107 road signs,  carriageway lining,  placement of metal barriers,  placement of signal pillars.

On the day of the physical audit conducted by us construction works of the 1st stage were fully completed. The following construction works were implemented from the 2nd stage:  Gravel layer distribution along the entire length of the road h=10cm  Sorted pebble with bitumen distribution 4.12t, 1,000sq.m  Large asphalt concrete 33,600 sq.m  Small asphalt concrete 16,310 sq.m  Road furnishing, including placement of 40 road signs and 10 signal pillars

The remaining works by 2nd stage were not implemented.

It was recommended, without changing the estimated price, to install precast concrete parapets along the deep canyons and high padding instead of metal barriers, which was coordinated with the client and the designing organization. These parapets make the traffic safer.

Observations and recommendations

During the physical audit as a result of visual examination of construction works, as well as the design and technical documentation provided to us, we implemented certain observations, which are presented below:

Observations  There was land removal from the slopes of extraction.  There was a collapsed are of the inner layer of road.

Recommendations  It’s necessary to clean up the collapsed slopes.  Recover the collapsed area of the inner layer.

During our visit as a result of visual examination of construction works, we did not notice any significant omissions and shortcomings on the rest areas of the road.

Conclusion

On the time of implementation of physical audit the construction works were in process.

There was a construction maintenance journal with respective notes and comments. Technical inspection acts on construction works completed and the laboratory testing results on road cover samples were in hand.

Recorded observations should be eliminated and recommendations should be implemented during the construction by working order.
