About this file
This is a Prevailing Wage Rate Determination document issued by the University of Texas System Office of Capital Projects for the Austin Area, dated June 25, 2020, in support of the Red & Charline McCombs Softball Stadium Renovation project. The document establishes mandatory minimum wage rates for building and exterior improvement construction work classified by trade, applicable to the Construction Manager-at-Risk selection process for this project with a Construction Cost Limitation of $9,400,000.00. The prevailing wage schedule covers 26 distinct trade classifications ranging from entry-level positions such as Laborers at $15.00 per hour to specialized trades including Elevator Mechanics at $39.71 per hour and Mason/Bricklayers at $25.00 per hour. Contractors are required to classify workers according to the published trade classifications and ensure compensation meets or exceeds the specified rates, with the contractor responsible for identifying any trades not listed on the schedule and obtaining Owner's Designated Representative approval for proposed wage classifications.
The wage rates shown represent entry-level, minimum wages for non-federally funded projects and do not include fringe benefits. Notably, the Landscaper classification is marked as not applicable (n/a), and specialized categories such as Building Automation ($22.34), Low Voltage work ($14.16), and Heavy Equipment Operators ($19.00) are clearly defined with detailed scope notes. The contractor bears responsibility for appropriately classifying workers in relation to similar trades and must ensure no worker receives compensation below the Laborer rate of $15.00 per hour. Contractors must promptly communicate any skill classifications not reflected on the prevailing wage schedule to the Owner's Designated Representative for concurrence before work commences.
