6$% of the new required load
capacity so more two by ten's
will have to be placed between
the existing rafters and solidly
bridged at both ends.
In the seating area the supports
under the seats are two by
eight's at 32 inch centres sup-
ported by horizontal two by six's
at 32 inch centres and butted at
the bottom against the outside
wail but not supported by it.
This will carry only 54% of the
new required live load capacity.
Two by eight's must be lagged to
the concrete wall underneath
the seating area and located so
they provide support for the
lower end of the inclined two by
eight's.
North-south beams must be
added under the stage floor
to raise its capacity from the
present 60 pounds per square foot
to 100 pounds per square loot.
In the north lean-to section,
where the rafters meet the truss
they need to be supported by
two by ten's capped between the
truss pints and nailed to the
rafters.
Councillor McKinnon reflected
gloomily, "We were gleefully
looking at having everything
done and because of the engin-
eer's error we are only in the
middle."

AT THE NEW
EXETER PLAZA
its July 15 meeting when a report
was presented from Ken Dunn,
l. Eng. of B.M. Ross and Associ-
ates. Mr. Dunn was the engineer
in charge of the $55,000 worth
of renovations spent previously
on the arena and it is due largely
to the fact that he "overlooked'
several requirements that the
new estimate to update the arena
could be as high as $30,000 to
$40,000,.
Mr. Dunn admits in his report
to council he failed to take into
account the joining of the bottom
chord in between panel points
in the original arena renova-
tions, The bottom chord con-
sists of five two by tents and there
are many locations where three
of the five members join at the
same location causing only two to
bear most of the load. In his
new report, Mr. Dunn recom-
mends installation of steel ten-
sion rods to provide the necessary
reinforcement between selected
panel points on the truss. Also
there must be two 3/4" diameter
anchor bolts anchored to the con-
crete footing where there now
exists only one 3/4" diameter
rod, many of which are badly
rusted. These would be the most
expensive parts of the necessary
renovations.
Mr, Dunn did say in the report
he will not charge for his time
to supervise the job and will
not charge for plans he will have
to make for approval by the
Ministry of Labor to complete
the renovations.
Alio, council has still received
no results from its Wintario
application and it looks like
Wintario grants will only match
dollar for dollar up to one-third
of the cost if the funds have been
raised by the public and are not
tax dollars.
As Reeve Fred Haberer put it,
"It's. a whole new ballgame.
We might as well get the engin-
eer to go ahead with preparing
the plans as he is not charging
for them and then see where we
stand."
Councillor Ray McKinnon re-
marked, "We're really in a bind
because we've already spent
$55,000 and we can't just throw
that away."
It was the general feeling of
council that if the total cost had
been known when the first renov-
ations were done, things might
have been done differently.
If council proceeds now with the
new renovations, the total expen-

diture will be around $100,000
and the arena will look pretty
much the same,
13esides the renovations over-
looked by the engineer, there
are several other things which
must be fixed to bring the arena
to the 1975 building code stand-
ards although they meet the
standards which were in exist-
ence when they were done in
the first place.
The outside supporting wall is
only capable of carrying 27% of
the required load capacity.
Concrete footings and support at
the midway point between truss,
