Mr. Cost stated that the contractor would come and erect the facade of the building contracted
up against the wall and use a water spray racket up against the wall and suck a vacuum on the

against it.
Commissioner Hudson asked about projectile testing on the outside wall.
Mr. Cost stated that they would be shooting some 2 x 4's at some of the projects for hurricane
performance and impact resistance.
Commissioner Fairchild asked if they have tested the decimals for shooting 2 x 4's.

cannon. The 95 decimals come from when they run the airplane motor.

Mr. Cost stated that it is a 15 minute test that is run once a month.
