Meet with City of San Bernardino staff to review the project,
discuss the design approach, and establish guidelines to ensure
good communication and coordination with the city.
2. Research-
a. Record Infonnation-Collect any As-Builts, record
drawings, record maps, readily available geologic maps,
survey control and mapping, of the project sites to aid in
preparing project drawings.
b. Utilities-City provides and list of utilities and contacts in
the project areas. Standard utility notification fonns are
sent to utility agencies with facilities in the project area or
with plans for future improvements. With a four week
project schedule, responses with the design time frame will
be shown on the drawings.
c. Field Walk-Conduct a field review job walk. At this time,
make some preliminary measurements, identify areas of
potential pavement reconstruction, take photographs and
collect notes identifying the configuration of Access Ramps,
any excessive cross-fall, striping configurations, and any
drainage concerns. Any further needed information may
be picked up by the Surveyors.
B. PAVEMENT CORING
1. AEI .CASC subconsultant will provide 8 cores to obtain existing
pavement section thickness and to obtain samples of the
supporting base and sub grade soil. Traffic control will be
provided by the subconsultant.
2. Conduct a visual survey of the surface conditions of the asphalt
concrete pavement throughout the roadways using a standard
rating system and prepare a map identifying areas of failing

value quality of these supporting soils. Other tests may include
sieve analysis and sand equivalent for sub grade soil samples to
assess the consistency of the materials obtained. R-value tests
will then be conducted on cemposite samples to determine the R-
value strength quality within the roadway area. All tests will be
conducted at the sub consultant's laberatory.
4. (optional) Evaluate all data developed and formulate cost
effective recommendations to replace the subject roadways as
well as new roadway pavement design to meet current traffic
index requirement.
