Re: Proposal for Structural Engineering Services
100-foot Hexagon Canopy
Kalispell City Airport, Kalispell, Montana
Fred,
We are pleased to provide this proposal for structural engineering services on the above referenced
project. We have based our proposal on our review of the preliminary plan sketch prepared by you. The
drawings show a one-story canopy structure in the shape of a hexagon to provide covered parking/storage
for six small aircraft. The total square footage is approximately 7,715 square feet. Our Scope of Services
includes two phases: construction documents and construction administration. The construction document
phase includes the following and will be completed for the lump sum fee of $5,000.00. The construction
administration phase is considered services produced after the construction documents are finalized. This
phase will be billed on an hourly basis according to our current fee schedule shown on the attached
Agreement for Professional Services. This phase is not included in the lump sum amount listed above.
In addition, reimbursable expenses will be billed as shown in the following table.
