ʻAʻohe pilikia ma ka Pōʻakahi: ka hale metala ma nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman

I kēia lā, kaulana nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman no nā honu, nā stingrays, ka luʻu, ka panakō a me ka mākaʻikaʻi. ʻO Grand Cayman ka nui a me ka lehulehu o nā mokupuni ʻekolu o ke kaulahao. Ua lōʻihi ka hilinaʻi ʻana o ka mokupuni ʻo Cayman iā Jamaica, a hoʻopaʻa i kāna kumukānāwai mua i ka makahiki 1959, a ua koho ʻo ia e noho ʻo ia ʻo British Crown Colony ma hope o ka loaʻa ʻana o Jamaica i ke kūʻokoʻa mai United Kingdom i 1962.
He pilina kūikawā ko nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa: ʻo ka hapa nui o ka ʻoihana luʻu a me ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi ma nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman e hele mai ana mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, a no laila ke kūʻai aku nei nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman i ka hapa nui o kāna mau waiwai, me nā mea hana hale. Mahalo i ka kaulana o ka puke moʻolelo a John Grisham The Company, ua piʻi nui ka kaulana o nā mokupuni ʻo Cayman.
Ma waho o ke kula kiʻekiʻe, ua lōʻihi ka hana ʻana o Watler ma ka waihona kālā e ʻike ai ʻaʻole nona. A laila ua hana ʻo ia no Cayman Airways kahi i hauʻoli ai ʻo ia e hālāwai me Wendy, a laila he lālā o ka hui kaʻa. Ma hope o kēia, ua hana pū ʻo Waterler me kona makuakāne ma ke ʻano he kanaka lima ʻākau, e aʻo ana i ka ʻoihana kūʻai, waiwai paʻa, hoʻomohala ʻāina a me ke kālepa.
Ua kapa ʻia ʻo Watler's Metal Products no nā ʻano ʻōnaehana hale metala e kūʻai aku a hoʻokomo ʻia. ʻOiai he 70% ka nui o ke kūʻai ʻana o ka hale, hoʻokomo pū ka hui i nā ʻōnaehana pani pani, nā ʻōnaehana hoʻoheheʻe metala, nā auwai a me nā ʻōnaehana kaupaku/panel. I ka pili ʻana i ka uhi ʻana, ʻo Watler kahi mea hoʻonohonoho i hōʻoia ʻia no Englert Metal Roofing Systems a me Johns-Manville.
Ua kūʻai ʻo Watler i nā mīkini hoʻoheheʻe wai 11 mau makahiki aku nei mai kona kaikaina ʻo Kevin, a ua neʻe ʻo Kevin i kahi hana ʻē aʻe. E hoʻomaka ana me ka mīkini ʻauʻau Englert haʻahaʻa, ua hoʻomaka ʻo Waterlogic e hoʻohui i nā huahana kūkulu ʻē aʻe. ʻEwalu mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ua kūʻai ʻo ia i kāna pahu paʻi Englert mua. Ke hoʻohana nei ʻo Watler's Metal Products i kēia manawa i ʻekolu mau auwai a me ʻehā mau mīkini uhi hale a nona kekahi mau hale waihona, hoʻohana ʻia kekahi o ia mau mea no ka mālama ʻana i nā mea hale a hoʻolimalima ʻia kekahi o ia mau mea i nā mea hoʻolimalima ʻē aʻe.
Hoʻokō nā code hale ma ka mokupuni me nā Codes Building hou ʻo Dade County a me South Florida. Ua hoʻohana ʻia ka code Dade County ma kahi o 15 mau makahiki. Ua hoʻololi ʻia kekahi mau ʻāpana o nā lula, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī ma mua o ka mea i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ke kānāwai koʻikoʻi loa ma ka ʻāina. ʻO ka Central Planning Authority he kōmike 13 mau lālā nāna e mālama i nā code hale. ʻO Watler kekahi lālā o ka papa mua.
Ua hui pū ʻo Watler i ʻeono mau mea ʻaelike ʻē aʻe i ka ʻoihana hale metala, akā ʻōlelo ʻo ia he 70 pakeneka o ka mākeke. Ua hōʻoia ʻia kēia ma ka huakaʻi Drive a me Point i ka wā i kuhikuhi haʻaheo ai ʻo Bob i nā papahana hale kaulana o kāna hui. Ke paʻahana nei ʻo Waterler me ʻekolu mau papahana kiʻekiʻe o ka hale: The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman, Meridian Residences a me Kirk Harbour Center.
Hoʻokomo ʻia nā mea hale a me nā mea kūkulu hale. ʻAʻole paha he ʻauhau loaʻa e hopohopo ai ma ʻaneʻi, akā, ʻo nā waiwai a pau i lawe ʻia mai (me ka ukana) ke kau nei i ka dute 20% ke hiki koke lākou i ka uapo. Ua komo kēia me nā mea metala a me nā mea hale ʻē aʻe a Waterler i kūʻai ai mai Butch Dubeki a me Englert ma Tampa, Florida, ʻo ka hapa nui o ia mau mea i kūʻai mai mai ka lole ma Fort Jones i kūʻai ʻia e Dave Clark o Bradco Supply.

Aia ka hale i nā pali haʻahaʻa a kiʻekiʻe. Aia ka ʻāpana haʻahaʻa o ka hale me Johns-Manville UltraGard SR-80 PVC ʻōnaehana hale a me ka polyisocyanurate insulation hale. Loaʻa nā ʻōnaehana hoʻopaʻa hale haʻahaʻa i nā hui mechanical a me nā ʻāpana i hoʻopaʻa paʻa ʻia e kūpono i nā kūlana kūʻē makani ikaika loa. Hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka hapa nui o 75 ″ ākea, 80 mil manoanoa me nā wili 6 ″ ma ke kikowaena. Ma kekahi mau wahi o ka hale, ʻo ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana o ka deck steel "N" e koi i ka hoʻopaʻa ikaika ʻana e hoʻokomo i ka 6-in. Pono nā ʻōnaehana i hoʻopau ʻia e loaʻa kahi palapala hōʻoia NDL 25 makahiki.
E ʻaʻahu ʻia ka hale kiʻekiʻe i ka ʻōnaehana panel Englert Series 2500. Ma hope o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ʻelua ʻaʻahu o Johns-Manville iso, e uhi ʻia ke kumu holoʻokoʻa me WR Grace Ice & Water Shield a ukali ʻia e Englert 2500 nā panela hale metala. E hana ʻia ka hale metala me ka .040 Kynar i uhi ʻia i ka alumini 500 i ka pōhaku one e hoʻohālike i ka nānā ʻana. Hoʻopili ʻia ka metala i ka cornice me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka plywood kūikawā, ʻo ia ka mea e hāʻawi i ke kūpaʻa nui loa i ka makani ikaika. Hoʻohana ʻia nā ʻano kīwī FM koʻikoʻi ma waena o nā panela a me nā mea uila a pau, ka puʻu, ka puʻu a me nā ʻāpana o ke awāwa e koi ai i kahi hoʻohālike kūikawā a me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana.
I ka manawa o kā mākou kipa ʻana i ka pūnaewele, ʻo ka hale haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa ma kahi o 70% piha a ke hoʻomaka nei ka hana ma kahi ʻāpana o ka hale metala. Ua hoʻokomo mua ʻia ka hapa nui o ka insulation a me ka underlayment, koe wale nō ma ka hale moana, kahi e hilahila ai ka poʻe hale i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka pā maloʻo i ka wā e hoʻokomo ai i ka uila a puni nā kukui lewa.
Ke hakakā nei nā Caymanians i ka manaʻo o ka ʻae ʻana i ke kūkulu ʻana i ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelima mau papa. Aia nā hopohopo e pili ana i ka palekana o ke ahi, akā aia nā manaʻo koʻikoʻi e pili ana i ke ʻano o ka hoʻololi ʻana i ke ʻano o ke kahakai ʻo Seven Mile, ʻaʻole e haʻi i ka nui o ka lehulehu. ʻO ka hope loa, ua ʻike ʻo Watler i ka neʻe ʻana i ka holomua, me ka ʻōlelo ʻana, "Manaʻo wau ua hana ke aupuni i ka mea kūpono, no ka nui o nā kumukūʻai waiwai, nā kaʻa a me nā pilikia kaʻa, ʻaʻohe koho akā e piʻi i luna." ʻO ka ʻokoʻa o nā papahele ʻehiku e pili wale ana i kekahi mau wahi o ka mokupuni.
E hōʻike ana ka hale Meridian i kahi ʻōnaehana panel Englert Series 1300 i hana ʻia mai ka alumini .040-gauge. E uhi ʻia ka metala me ke keʻokeʻo Kynar 500 me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana pale anuanu e hoʻomaikaʻi i nā ʻano hoʻohālikelike o ka hale i hoʻopau ʻia. Ua hoʻolaha hou ʻo Englert e hoʻololi ʻia kāna laina hana metala holoʻokoʻa i nā uhi hoʻomanaʻo nui e hoʻomaka ana i ka makahiki 2004.
Ma waho aʻe o ka hale, ua ʻaelike ʻia ʻo Waterlogic e hana i nā ʻūlū metala a me nā ʻōnaehana decking e like me ke kūkulu ʻana o ka mokupuni. ʻO kēia ʻōnaehana truss kila i hana mua ʻia no Waterlogic. Ua ʻike ʻo ia i ka hiki o ia ʻano hoʻolālā a makemake ʻo ia e piʻi i ka papahele honua. Na ka manawa e hōʻike inā e hoʻohui ʻia nā pahu kila a me nā ʻōnaehana decking i ka laina huahana o ka hui. Ke hoʻomohala nei ka mea kūʻai aku ʻo Watler ʻo Brian E. Butler i nā hale Meridian.
ʻO kekahi papahana kūlana kiʻekiʻe e uhi ʻia nei e ka hui me ka hale metala ʻo Downtown Kirkport. Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ka ʻāina ʻo Kirkport i nā makahiki i hala iho nei, me nā hale metala pena i hoʻomaka e wehewehe i ke ʻano o ia wahi. Aia ke kikowaena o Kirkport ma ke kahua nui o Grand Cayman, a lawe ʻia nā malihini e nā moku liʻiliʻi mai nā moku holo moana. I ko mākou kipa ʻana i ke awa ʻo Kirk, aia ma kahi o ʻelima mau moku holo moku i ku mai ma laila.
Inā laki ʻoe e kipa aku i kēia mokupuni nani, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hele hewa me ka hana a Waterler ma ka puʻuwai o Kirkharbour. ʻO ka hale nui e loaʻa i ka hale papa Englert Series 2500 i pena ʻulaʻula. Ke ʻimi nei ʻoe i nā wahi a puni, nā hale kūʻai luʻu, nā hale ʻaina a me nā hale kūʻai kūʻai kūʻai, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā huahana hana lima o Waterlogic Metal Products. ʻO kekahi o nā papahana hoihoi loa i hoʻopau ʻia e ka hui i nā makahiki i hala aku nei he ʻano o nā hale liʻiliʻi. Ua makemake ka mea nona nā kala like ʻole, no laila lawe ʻo Waterler iā ia i ka hale kūʻai e nānā i ka ʻōwili i loaʻa. Ua lilo kēia neʻe i ka lanakila-lanakila: ua wehe ka mea nona nā ʻāpana hele hewa a me nā kala coil a hoʻohana iā lākou e hana i kahi hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa no kāna mau papahana hale.
No laila pehea ʻoe e kūkulu ai i ka hale ma luna o ka lewa? Ua lohe ʻo Lance e pili ana i ka manawa kūpono akā ʻaʻole i nānā a hiki i kona neʻe ʻana mai Florida a i Macon, Georgia, i ka waena o ka hoʻoilo, kahi i hana ʻino ai nā ʻano hana. Ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia ua lawa a (i ka hauʻoli o Waterler) hele i ka lā.
ʻO ka pilikia nui a Waterler ʻo ka ʻimi a mālama ʻana i ke kōkua maikaʻi. He mokupuni ʻo Grand Cayman me ka heluna kanaka a me ka wai liʻiliʻi o nā mea kūkulu hale. He mea paʻakikī iā ia ke kiʻi ʻana i nā limahana, ʻoiai no kēlā me kēia mea o ka ʻoihana hale. ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, pono ʻo ia e kiʻi i kahi visa hana a loaʻa kahi hale, kahi hana i hoʻopau i ka manawa a me ke kumukūʻai. ʻO ka nele o nā ʻauhau kālā a me nā uku uku kiʻekiʻe e ʻae ʻia ka poʻe e like me Lance, makemake lākou e pale i nā mahina hoʻoilo.
Ma ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa, makemake nā Waterlers i kā lākou hana. Ua makemake ʻo Wendy e ʻike i ka "ma mua a ma hope" o ka hale. I kou kaʻa ʻana a puni ka mokupuni, maʻalahi ke ʻike i ke kumu: ua koho ʻia ka hale ma hope o ka hale ma ke ʻano he "no mākou."
Ua hauʻoli ʻo Watler i nā mea āpau o ka pāʻani, ʻoi aku ka kūʻai aku a me ke "kālepa." Haʻaheo ʻo ia i ka kūleʻa i loaʻa i kāna ʻoihana, akā wikiwiki ʻo ia e hōʻaiʻē i kāna mau hana hana iā Lance, nā mea hoʻolako e hoʻomau iā ia i ka hoʻokūkū a kākoʻo holoʻokoʻa i kāna misionari, a me kāna wahine a me kāna makuahine no ke talena a ka hui i huki ai. hui. Ua hōʻike ʻo ia i ka mahalo i kona makuakāne i hala no ka hāʻawi ʻana iā ia i nā mākau a me nā talena e hoʻokele ai i ka ʻoihana. ʻO kēlā hui ikaika e mālama i kēia ʻoihana i nā makahiki he nui e hiki mai ana. ʻAʻohe pilikia, Pōʻakahi.
ʻO ka maʻiʻo Sponsored kahi ʻāpana uku kūikawā kahi e hāʻawi ai nā ʻoihana ʻoihana i nā ʻike kiʻekiʻe, ʻae ʻole, ʻaʻole kūʻai aku i nā kumuhana hoihoi i ka poʻe e ʻimi ana i ka hale. Hāʻawi ʻia nā ʻike āpau i kākoʻo ʻia e nā keʻena hoʻolaha a ʻo nā manaʻo i hōʻike ʻia ma kēia ʻatikala na ka mea kākau a ʻaʻole pono e hōʻike i nā manaʻo o Roofing Contractor a i ʻole kāna hui makua ʻo BNP Media. Makemake ʻoe e komo i kā mākou ʻāpana maʻiʻo kākoʻo? E ʻoluʻolu e kelepona i kou lunamakaʻāinana!
E hōʻike ana kēia ʻaha kūkā ʻelua lā i nā ala hou a i hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia e holo ai i ka ʻoihana hale no nā noi ʻoihana a me nā hale noho. Loaʻa i ka ʻike waiwai mai nā alakaʻi ʻoihana loea e aʻo i nā papa i hoʻolālā ʻia e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻomaikaʻi i kāu ʻoihana, a loaʻa i nā manawa kūpono e launa pū me kāu mau hoa ma Best of Success.
