Subject: Proposal to Provide Construction Materials Testing for the Renovation of
the 23 Yard Swimming Pool and Pool House in Ukiah California
Dear Ms. Horger:
Thank you for this opportunity for SHN Consulting Engineers & Geologists, Inc. (SHN), to offer
the following proposal to provide Construction Materials Testing and Inspection Services for the
Renovation of the 25 Yard Swimming Pool. SHN has developed the following scope of work and
cost estimate.
Scope of Work
Construction Materials Testing (Concrete/Shot-Crete Testing)
We propose to provide qualified ACI certified field technicians to monitor and sample concrete and
shotcrete on site during placement, perform compaction testing as required, pull-test post installed
rebar dowels and perform the necessary laboratory testing from our accredited laboratory in
Willits. In addition to the on-site sampling and testing services, our project managers are
experienced in reviewing submitted mix designs for approval through the various methods stated
in ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete.
Project Management
The project manager assigned to this project will be in charge of reviewing daily field reports,
analyzing concrete strength data, monthly billing reviews to stay within budget, and distributing
test reports promptly. '
Other Items
Included in our Proposed Fee is a 1070 contingency as a placeholder for items that have not been
identified and that may be necessary during the construction of this project.
Proposed Fee
We understand that the Project is projected to have a construction period of 180 days. Because
construction projects often proceed on a schedule that is unforeseeable, we have estimated our
costs based upon an assumption that our scope of work for this project will be completed in the
time frames identified in the following cost proposal.
