Geotechnical Investigation >
c
For the geotechnical investigation report our typical scope of work will include the following tasks,
.E
Task 1: Project Set-up
As part of the project set-up,staff personnel from our office will conduct the following. o
• Coordinate site access with your representative. a)
■ Field reconnaissance to map the surface condition, including drainage,flood hazard,etc.
• Stakelmark the boring locations in the field such that drill rig access to all the locations is
available. c
Notify underground Service Alert(USA)at least 48 hours prior to drilling to clear the boring O
oTasklocation of any conflict with existing underground utilities. .0-
Task
2: Subsurface Exploratio
The field investigation vdil include a subsurface exploration program consisting of drilling exploratory
borings.The purpose of the borings will be to: vn
Obtain subsurface information at the site. `o
Obtain undisturbed and bulk samples of the various soil types for laboratory testing.
c
The number of borings will be determined based the project needs. The borings will be drilled to E
depths for project specific below ground surface (bgs) or to refusal, whichever is shallower. Soils
will be continuously logged and classified by the geologistiengineer in the field by visual examination Q
in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System.
00ti
Undisturbed ring samples of the subsurface materials will be obtained at five-foot intervals, atLn
changes in soil profiles, or where unusual conditions are encountered. The relatively undisturbed
ring samples will be obtained using a Modified Califomia Sampler(2.4 inches inside diameter and a
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 hammer failing 30 inches.The number Q
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 w
(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 w
of representative soil types will be collected in plastic bags. Groundwater levels,where encountered O
j in the borings,will be recorded.After completion of boring within existing paved area, boreholes J
will be backfilled with soil cuttings and/or patch with asphalt concrete.

CHJ, a Terracon Company's Work Plan and Technical Approach
Our project appmac h relies on effective communication between our project managers and our clients to(1)understand the
clients desires and expectations (2)develop a work plan consistent with the project requirements and client expectations,
r and (3)efficiently execute the workplan to the clients satisfaction. c
U
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 o
analyze stereoscopic aerial photographs for evidence of potential geologic hazards and past land usage.We then set out to
c�
the site to marls boring locations and infiorm Dig-Alert of the impending exploration as required by law.After the required 48-
hour
&hour period for utility clearance, we will then drill borings to required depths in representative areas for the project. Field 9
testing at this stage normally consists of standard penetration testing providing blow counts. Blowcounts will be recorded at o
each sample depth as the number of hammer blows used to advance the sampler a total of 18 inches in increments of 6 0
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. N
L
O
W
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 d
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 a
or Geological Report and provided to the client. If the City of San Bernardino requires draft reporting prior to finalizing our Ib
report,we can provide draft reports as necessary.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance Methods
CHJ, a Terracon Company maintains an effective, comprehensive quality control(QC)system to help ensure that our testing c
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:
N
C
O
f Laboratory Accreditation
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 =o_
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 'c
Certification in section 6 of this proposal.
Training
CHJ, a Terracon Company employees are actively encouraged to attain continued education and training in their o
specific areas of expertise. This training consists of informal on-the�ob training as well as participation in formal 0
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. o
For our laboratory and field technicians, the most comprehensive training and certification programs that we o
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.
Engineering Review `2
t The results of all laboratory and field tests performed are reviewed by registered engineers for accuracy. In addition,
s our engineers routinely review specific project testing requirements with our laboratory and field personnel, as well r_
as our clients,to ensure that the testing performed is consistent with project requirements. E
Budget/Cost Control a
CHJ,a Terracon Company aggressively monitors our project costs and tracks those costs against authorized project budgets.
00
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 r
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. a
Construction related services are performed on a time and materials basis. During project construction, our costs will be w
tracked against the authorized budget. Cost and statement-of-work summaries can be included with each monthly invoice. ~
0
We will notify you immediately if(1)we are requested to provide any out-of-scope service that may impact our budget and(2) w
0
when our total fee reaches 75 percent of the project budget. We have found that attendance at weekly construction meetings J
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. o

Slte Characterization Methods Co
Geotechnical recommendations for a project are only as good as permitted by the confidence obtained in accurate
characterization of existing subsurface conditions. We use enhanced in-situ exploration methods, such as electronic cone
penetration, pressuremeter, vane shear, borehole shear, Geo-Probe"', and seismic geophysical methods on relevant
projects.We emphasize to our clients that the cost of a thorough geotechnical investigation is typically minor compared to the a
cost savings and risk reductions that can be afforded by higher confidence in the geotechnical regime.

Inspection and Test Data Collection, Report Preparation,and Distribution
Once construction is underway,all field technicians and inspectors are responsible to provide a daily report identifying what o
work was found to be in compliance with the project specifications and drawings and report any non-conformances.
The field technicians immediately communicate any non-conformances to our Lead Inspectors and Project Manager and
directly to the project team members identified in the kick-off meeting. Effective and timely communication and tracking of c0
non-conforming items is critical in getting items corrected quickly and assuring they do not get covered up during construction. 0
n:
l Our Project Manager will be responsible to review each inspector's and technician's daily reports and to keep non- o
conformance logs up to date on a daily basis and communicate all inspection and test results daily to the designated Project
Team members. CHJ, a Terracon Company will keep and maintain a log of non-conformance items through to project y
completion and document when how they were addressed. c
In order to provide for rapid communication and faster turnaround of test results and inspection reporting, our personnel will
utilize laptops to complete their field observation reports and testing reports in CMELMSTm on the project site.As soon as the s
field personnel enter the information into the system, the reports are immediately identified as "ready to review" and are
available to the Project Manager for review. "
a1 �
When reports are identified as"finalized",they can then be digitally signed and distributed to
all parties. The report(s) can be posted to our secure Client Document Website system }
where our documents can be immediately updated for the storage of all reports and can be
accessed by approved users. Altematively, if the Project Team has a designated website, :k
we also have the ability to post our reports there as well. In addition, the flexibility of our Edson SULA
system also allows for direct email distribution and the printing and delivery of hardcopies.
} :
As discussed, CHJ, a Terracon Company's Project Manager ,o
maintains non-conformance los and lists for all testing and
inspection services performed. The list will be maintained x d
digitally in our CMELMSTM application and can be updated and _ - f ' &� E
e-mailed or printed at any time. We will include the non-
conformance log In our distribution to the Project Team
and will provide them at any other time as requested. tow
Our preferred method of information and report distribution is
through CHJ,a Terracon Company's Client Document Website
(CDW).With access,any approved member party of the project ' , .t
team can view, download, or print our inspection and testing
reports as they are uploaded. One of the features of the COW is that access to reports can be limited by the report type.For w
example, the project civil engineer or a concrete subcontractor may not need access to structural steel reports and is not
notified to the uploading of these reports, and they will not appear in their report access listing upon entering the site. The W
Client Document Website also allows for the electronic storage of our reports and can be accessed by approved users with O
J
an internet connection from anywhere at any time. a

East County Detention Center,Indio, California
Dr.Yi served as project engineer and his role included planning for field and laboratory d
investigations, making geotechnical calculations and preparing the geotechnical
investigation report. Due to the significant increase in peak ground acceleration for maximum considered earthquake(MDCR)
J 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 sihlsandy silt(ML)to depths ranging from approximately 45 to 55 feet bgs,underlain by interbedded w
t silt(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 over-estimation of the E
seismic settlement in silty soils based on the review of the latest publications and case histories. With the dose coordination
c with design team, Dr.Yi proposed the use of geogrid placed on excavation bottom. The final excavation depth for support a
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 o
governs the section and depth of shoring.This avoided the over-design of the shoring. Dr.YPs efforts significantly contributed
the saving of overall construction cost of this project.
