Re: Clute—Luzerne Road Storage Buildings
Dear Dave:
This is to inform you that Larry Clute has retained me to make structural inspections of the storage
buildings he is building for mini-storage on Luzerne Road. Since all of the structural components
of the buildings are accessible, I will be performing my inspections when the building(s) are
completed. I will forward my final inspections to you for your files.
Please call me if you have any questions regarding this matter.
Sin erely,
Thomas W. Nace, P.E.

Re: LUZERNE ROAD SELF-STORAGE,QUEENSBURY,NEW YORK
Construction Materials Inspection and Testing Services
Dear Mr. Hatin,
Per the request of Mr. Brian O'Connor, O'Connor Construction, Inc.,we are pleased to inform
you that CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY has been retained to provide the construction
materials inspection and testing services required of the upcoming referenced project.
As such, we would like a moment to introduce our organization.
CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY is the construction materials inspection division of
Product Development & Technical Services, Inc. Since our 1984 incorporation in New York
State,we have been devoted to providing the highest standards of on time field inspection,
testing and laboratory support to the construction industry. Our desire is a QC/QA involvement
with projects committed to timely completion while satisfying the quality controls and
assurances necessary to support today's strict design criteria.
All to often materials inspections are viewed as a necessary evil or a requirement to be
overlooked. Many times the laboratory brings this attitude on itself because of less than fully
qualified personnel, tardy response time or uncompromising attitudes of technicians.
Given the opportunity,we are confident we can provide the services that reflect our strong
desire to be an asset to the construction process.
Our facility and field technical force is supported by state of the art test equipment, including
nuclear soil/asphalt density test equipment, automatic soil moisture/density (Proctor) apparatus,
temperature/humidity controlled curing environments for concrete specimens, and all other
necessary equipment to satisfy the requirements of the American Society for Testing and
Materials(ASTM) standards C-1077 and E-329 as they relate to a commercial inspection
agency.
CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY has submitted to outside auditing by having our
personnel,equipment, facility and quality assurance plan evaluated by the Cement and
Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL)of the National Standards Institute. A copy of the
CCRL/NSI audit and finding is available upon request.

Re: LUZERNE ROAD SELF-STORAGE,QUEENSBURY,NEW YORK
Construction Materials Inspection and Testing Services
Our staff ranges from consultant Professional Engineers,hydrologists and geologists to field
technicians and materials inspectors with technical backgrounds of educational degrees and/or
substantiated experience in a construction oriented discipline. Field inspectors also possess a
combination of the following certifications:
* Certification at various levels (AET-I through SET-IV)by the National Institute for
Certification in the Engineering Technologies (NICET).
* American Concrete Institute(ACI) Grade I Concrete Inspector.
* American Concrete Institute (ACI)Certified Concrete Construction Special Inspector.
* Troxler Nuclear Gauge Training Program for Radiation Safety Officers and Field Operators.
* J&L Testing,Inc. Certification Program for Sanitary Landfill Inspectors.
* J&L Testing,Inc. Certification Program for Quality Control and Inspection of Geosynthetic
Systems for Use in Solid and Hazardous Waste Disposal Facilities.
In addition to particular qualifications, field inspectors are familiar with all phases of
construction materials testing and inspection including soils, concrete,reinforcement,masonry,
structural steel, fireproofing and roof installation. This generally alleviates the need and
expense of employing more than one inspector on a particular project.
CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY currently has the capabilities to provide inspection and
testing services relating to many construction concerns including but not limited to: subsurface
drilling and investigation, soils placement and compaction, foundation design
recommendations,portland cement concrete, unit masonry, mortars, grouts, bituminous
concrete, structural steel and fireproofing, as well as all associated laboratory services.
In general,all forms of materials testing and inspection services, as they relate to the
construction industry, may be obtained through CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY.
We appreciate your interest in our firm and our line of work.
We look forward to serving the construction materials inspection,testing and laboratory
requirements of the LUZERNE ROAD SELF-STORAGE.
If there are any questions, or when we may be of assistance, please contact this office
immediately.
Respectfully,
CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY
