Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Hap Cremean Water Plant (HCWP) was originally constructed in the early 1950's; the plant was doubled in size in the early 1970's with periodic additional construction since initiation. HCWP consists of multiple special purpose buildings on a single campus each with an integral role in the water treatment process. The architecture of these buildings is generally brick and/or concrete unit masonry with some glass block and precast concrete panels and stonework. Observed deterioration of the exterior masonry of these buildings prompted a detailed condition assessment which was completed in 2005 by Architects and Engineers chosen specifically for their expertise in this area.
