Since, it is not project specific our approach/work plan presented below describes our typical tasks of what is required during the design and construction phase of these projects. 3.a Design & Construction Services DESIGN PHASE Geotechnical Investigation For the geotechnical investigation report our typical scope of work will include the following tasks. Task 1: Project Set-up As part of the project set-up, staff personnel from our office will conduct the following. ■ Coordinate site access with your representative. Field reconnaissance to map the surface condition, including drainage, flood hazard, etc. Stake/mark the boring locations in the field such that drill rig access to all the locations is available. Notify underground Service Alert (USA) at least 48 hours prior to drilling to clear the boring location of any conflict with existing underground utilities. Task 2: Subsurface Exploration The field investigation will include a subsurface exploration program consisting of drilling exploratory borings. The purpose of the borings will be to: Obtain subsurface information at the site. - Obtain undisturbed and bulk samples of the various soil types for laboratory testing. The number of borings will be determined based the project needs. The borings will be drilled to depths for project specific below ground surface (bgs) or to refusal, whichever is shallower. Soils will be continuously logged and classified by the geologist/engineer in the field by visual examination in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System, Undisturbed ring samples of the subsurface materials will be obtained at five-foot intervals, at changes in soil profiles, or where unusual conditions are encountered. The relatively undisturbed ring samples will be obtained using a Modified California Sampler (2.4 inches inside diameter and 3.0 inches outside diameter) lined with thin-walled sample rings. The sampler will be driven into the bottom of the borehole with successive drops of a 140 -pound hammerfalling 30 inches. The number of successive drops of the driving weight ("blows") required for one foot of penetration will be shown on the boring summary sheet in the "blow/6-inch column. The soil will be retained in brass rings (2.4 inches in diameter and 1.0 inch in height). The central portion of the sample will be retained and carefully sealed In waterproof plastic containers for shipment to the laboratory. Bulk samples of representative soil types will be collected in plastic bags. Groundwater levels, where encountered in the borings, will be recorded. After completion of boring within existing paved area, boreholes will be backfilled with soil cuttings and/or patch with asphalt concrete. 00 Converse Consultants MAJCBFILE12017181117-81-165 City or San Bernardino, On -Call Design & Construction\ProposaRProposahl7-81-185_pro Pg. 21 City of San Bernardino, Department of Public Works On -Call Geotechnk:al Investigation & Construction Material Testing Task 3: Laboratory Testing Soil samples obtained during exploratory drilling will be tested in our laboratory to evaluate their physical characteristics and engineering properties.

Numerous other earth material physical tests can be performed in our geotachnical laboratories, Including rock core, soil cement and soil lime mixture tests. Tests not listed can be quoted upon request. This fee schedule is valid through December 31, 2018. Prices are based on the assumption that samples are uncontaminated and do not contain heavy metals, acids, carcinogens andfor volatile organics which can be measured by an organic vapor analyzer or photoionn:ation detector with a concentration greater than 50 parts -per -million (ppm). Quoted testing fees are based on the assumption that no protective clothing will be required to handle samples. If Level D protective clothing will be required during handling of samples (as defined in the Federal CFR Part 1910.120), then a 40% Increase In fees presented in this schedule will be applied. Level C protective clothing will be a 60% increase in fees. Converse will not handle samples that require either Level B or Level A protection in our geotechnical laboratories. Contaminated samples will be returned to the chenL Uncontaminated samples will be disposed of 30 days after presentation of test results. The client must disclose the source of samples. Samples Imported from out of state will be Incinerated after testing, in accordance with requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture.

A minimum laboratory fee of $50.00 will be charged to present and mail test results. Beyond the standard U.S. Mail delivery, specialized transmittal will be charged at additional cost (e.g., Federal Express, UPS, etc.). Geotechnical testing does not Include engineering and/or geologic review and analysis. Typical turn -around for geotechnical laboratory testing is two weeks (or roughly ten working days). To expedite test tum -around to five working days, a 50% Increase in the fees In this schedule will be applied. Many geotechnical tests require at least one week to perform in accordance with the ASTM or other standard specifications. Fees presented in this schedule for relatively undisturbed direct shear, consolidation or expansion pressure tests are based on the assumption that 22 -inch -diameter (2.416 -Inch inside diameter) brass ring samples will be provided to the geotechnical laboratory for testing. Remolded specimens will be compacted in standard 2.5_inch outside diameter brass rings for direct shear, consolidation and expansion pressure tests. All fees presented in this schedule are based on the assumption that the clientxdll deliver samples to our laboratory at no additional cost to Converse. Invoices will be Issued monthly and are payable on receipt unless otherwise agreed upon.

Three different cement contents (2, 4, and 6 Compressive Strength Testing percent) were tested for R -value and a thinner pavement section using cement treated subgrade soils was developed. Significant cost savings to the client • The logistics of this project were crucial in the completion of the investigation Constant communication with client report. An initial visual pavement survey was performed and locations where the during investigation and analysis most distress were observed were marked for coring. We also provided coring and sampling of subgrade materials. • Our constant communication with the client and project management procedures allowed us to provide the final section design immediately upon completion of the laboratory testing. The client was able to move forward in his procurement process for construction prior to finalization for the Geotechnical investigation report. • Based on the reduced pavement section using cement treated subgrade soils, the client was able to realize substantial cost savings for the project in both materials and labor. Although not evaluated in detail, cost savings realized were in the thousands of dollars' range. • The SBX lanes are currently in use by commuters for this portion of the project. � s City of San Bernardino On -Call Geotechnical Investigation and Construction Material Testing Environmental Facilities Geotechnical Materials f _ r.` Rendering of Observatory Rancho Mirage Observatory �EWLII` vRNIA The observatory will have a research -quality telescope and its 221/2 -foot diameter dome. The dome will be large enough to hold a classroom of students and rotate in sync with the telescope, which was recommended by scientist Dan McKenna at the California Institute of Technology Palomar Observatory.The dome will also include a 1,500- to 2,000 -square -foot outside deck where people can bring their own telescopes to stargaze. The city of Rancho Mirage planned to construct a new, approximate 22 -foot -diameter observatory next to the existing Rancho Mirage Public Library. The structure consists of a three-story masonry and metal frame structure supported by a deep foundation system. The observatory dome will be comprised of metal framing associated hardscape and underground utilities will also be included. • CHJ, a Terracon Company was retained to perform the grading observation and construction materials testing services for the project. Upon review of the third - party geotechnical investigation report and project foundation plans, we realized that the report and foundation design were insufficient for the construction of this unique structure. After discussion with Public Works Director Mark Sambito, our geotechnical engineers provided another proposal for additional investigation work consisting of Cone Penetration Test (CPT) soundings at the project site. Based on these results we provided alternate additional recommendations for pile capacity that lead to deepening of the cast -in -drilled -hole (CIDH) pile foundation system. : Mark Sambito, P.E.

Geotechnical Investigation We understand that an assigned project may require Geotechnical or Geological Engineering including field and laboratory testing. Our general approach to performing a geotechnical investigation includes (1) geologic literature and historical photograph review, (2) subsurface exploration, (3) laboratory testing, and (4) evaluation of the geotechnical and geologic data to provide site and project specific recommendations for seismicity, foundation design and site earthwork. For a typical site investigation, we will submit a proposal to clarify our scope of work. After approval of the proposal, we will first review available published and unpublished geologic literature pertaining to the area of the site, and then review and analyze stereoscopic aerial photographs for evidence of potential geologic hazards and past land usage. We then set out to the site to mark boring locations and inform Dig -Alert of the impending exploration as required by law. After the required 48- hour period for utility clearance, we will then drill borings to required depths in representative areas for the project. Field testing at this stage normally consists of standard penetration testing providing blow counts. Blowcounts will be recorded at each sample depth as the number of hammer blows used to advance the sampler a total of 18 inches in increments of 6 inches (or less if noted). Once the borings have been drilled, representative samples are obtained, and any field testing required performed, the bore hole or test pit is backfilled and capped with cold patch asphalt or native soils. The samples are then brought into our laboratory so that geotechnical testing such as in-situ density and moisture content, optimum moisture - maximum density relationships, sand equivalent, R -value, direct shear strength, expansion index, soil corrosivity, sieve analysis, consolidation potential may be performed. The information from the laboratory testing will help with the engineering analysis including pavement design, bearing capacity, settlement potential, and any other recommendation that the City of Pomona may require. The information is then described and summarized in our Geotechnical or Geological Report and provided to the client. If the City of San Bernardino requires draft reporting prior to finalizing our report, we can provide draft reports as necessary. s r. r� libm con City of San Bemardino On -Call Geotechnical Investigation and Construction Material Testing Environmental Facilities Geotechnical Materials Construction Related Services Projects requiring construction related services, such as soil compaction testing, concrete inspection and testing, etc. always begin with communication between the client and our project manager. Our field technicians and construction inspectors are assigned based on their experience, skills and the specific project requirements. Our goal is to maintain the same staff on site for the project duration, minimizing personnel replacement as much as possible. CHJ, a Terracon Company's field supervisors routinely visit each construction site to verify that our personnel are performing their duties to the project requirements and project expectations, and are working safely. Our field supervisors also check in with the client or owner's representative when appropriate to check on our performance. Our project manager attends and participates in all weekly construction meetings. This allows our firm to proactively identify and address staffing or technical issues pertaining to our services, in conjunction with the project team, as they arise. 10 City of San Bernardino On -Call Geotechnical Investigation and Construction Material Testing Environmental • Facilities • Geotechnical . Materials CHJ, a Terracon Company maintains an effective, comprehensive quality control (QC) system to help ensure that our testing is performed in accordance with accepted standards and that our testing personnel have the necessary training and experience to carry out their assigned duties. Our QC system is comprised of the following: CHJ, a Terracon Company is accredited by a number of independent programs and agencies. The most rigorous ,accreditation programs are those administered by the Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL), the AASHTO Materials Reference Laboratory (ARML) and Caltrans. The CCRL and ARML programs are both administered under the auspices of the National Bureau of Standards. All three accreditation programs include on- site laboratory inspection and participation in laboratory sample reference programs. We have included our Caltrans Certification in section 6 of this proposal. CHJ, a Terracon Company employees are actively encouraged to attain continued education and training in their specific areas of expertise. This training consists of informal on-the-job training as well as participation in formal training and continuing education programs. Prior to project assignment, personnel qualifications are reviewed to ensure that the assigned personnel have the appropriate training and experience for the specific project requirements. For our laboratory and field technicians, the most comprehensive training and certification programs that we participate in are administered by Caltrans and the American Concrete Institute (ACI). Nearly all of our laboratory and field technicians maintain current Caltrans and ACI certification. The results of all laboratory and field tests performed are reviewed by registered engineers for accuracy. In addition, our engineers routinely review specific project testing requirements with our laboratory and field personnel, as well as our clients, to ensure that the testing performed is consistent with project requirements. CHJ, a Terracon Company aggressively monitors our project costs and tracks those costs against authorized project budgets. Geotechnical investigations are typically performed on a lump -sum basis, but can be performed on a time and materials basis if the client desires. Change order and cost overruns on geotechnical investigations are very unusual and typically occur only with a dramatic change in scope. We do not perform out -of -scope services on any project without the client's knowledge and without prior authorization. Construction related services are performed on a time and materials basis. During project construction, our costs will be tracked against the authorized budget. Cost and statement -of -work summaries can be included with each monthly invoice. We will notify you immediately if (1) we are requested to provide any out -of -scope service that may impact our budget and (2) when our total fee reaches 75 percent of the project budget. We have found that attendance at weekly construction meetings by our project manager, significantly improves project communication and allows us to identify issues early that may affect our budget, resulting in significantly fewer change orders. 11 City of San Bernardino On -Call Geotechnical Investigation and Construction Material Testing Te►racon has pefformed goo[echmcal engineering selvwes pn mnra than 52-000 projects in the pass five years Company for the services being provided.

RCE 71059 - California Registered Geotechnical Engineer GE 2967, California Education: B.S. in Civil Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China —1983 M.S. in Civil Engineering, China Institute of Water Conservancy and Hydroelectric Power Research, Beijing, China —1986 Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan -1991 Years of Experience: East County Detention Center, Indio, California 34 Dr. Yi served as project engineer and his role included planning for field and laboratory investigations, maldng geotechnical calculations and preparing the geotechnical investigation report. Due to the significant increase in peak ground acceleration for maximum considered earthquake (MDCR) in 2013 CBC, the seismic settlement was a key issue for the total cost and construction of this project. The soil profile at the site typically consisted of sift/sandy silt (ML) to depths ranging from approximately 45 to 55 feet bgs, underlain by interbedded sift (ML), silty sand (SM) and sand (SP -SM) to the maximum depths explored. The soils encountered generally ranged from very loose to dense, generally increasing in density with depth. Dr. Yi made a lot of efforts to avoid overestimation of the seismic settlement in silty soils based on the review of the latest publications and case histories. With the close coordination with design team, Dr. r proposed the use of geogrid placed on excavation bottom. The final excavation depth for support building area was able to be reduced by 11 feet. Dr. Yi also recommended the shoring being designed considering the construction stages and period of time. Based on this recommendation, the shoring designed for temporary loads in Stage 1 governs the section and depth of shoring. This avoided the over -design of the shoring. Dr. Yi's efforts significantly contributed the saving of overall construction cost of this project.
