(SHN), to offer the following proposal to the City of Ukiah (City) to provide Construction Materials Testing & Inspection for the North State St. Intersection - Low Gap & Brush St. (Project). Following is a brief discussion of SHN's construction materials testing services qualifications, our project understanding including scope of services, and our proposed fee estimate. Firm Qualifications SRN's construction materials testing staff is comprised of civil engineers, certified construction inspectors, and material testers. Our field and laboratory testing technicians are certified by Caltrans, American Concrete Institute (ACI), National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies (NICET), International Code Council (ICC) and our laboratory is accredited by Caltrans and the AASHTO Accreditation Program (AAP). Our laboratory and field technicians use state of the art, calibrated testing equipment to provide accurate and timely construction materials compliance analysis. Refer to Attachment B - Technician and Laboratory Certifications. References SHN has provided construction materials testing services for the City of Ukiah, Mendocino County, County of Lake, City of Fort Bragg, City of Willits, Frank R. Howard Memorial Hospital, and Mendocino Coast District Hospital among others. Our recent construction materials testing services projects include: ❖ North State Street Sewer Main Improvements - City of Ukiah Dept. of Public Works - client contact: Jarod Thiele, 300 Seminary Ave., Ukiah, CA 95482-5400, 707-463-6755 ❖ City of Ukiah Sewer & Water Replacement - City of Ukiah - client contact: Jarod Thiele, 300 Seminary Ave., Ukiah, CA 95482-5400, 707-463-6755 ❖ Chestnut Street Corridor Improvements - City of Fort Bragg - client contact: Tom Varga, 416 North Franklin Street, Fort Bragg, CA, 707-961-2823 Project Understanding and Scope of Work Our project understanding and scope of work is based upon a review of the Project plans and specifications and the specific items of work identified in the Request for Proposal (RFP) received on August 17, 2017. Following is a discussion of SHN's approach to providing the specific construction materials testing services outlined in the RFP. \\ Willits\projects\2017\Promos\417000.106-N.StateTsting\PUBS\promos\20170823-CofU_Proposal.doc Mr. Jarod Thiele Testing Services for the North State St. Intersection - Low Gap & Brush St. Project, Spec. No. 17-02 August 23, 2017 Page 2 Scheduling and Reporting of Test Results The request for proposals (RFP) indicates a construction start date of September, 2017, and compaction testing of trench backfill is anticipated to start shortly thereafter. SHN will be in direct contact with the City Engineer or his designee for scheduling of any field sampling and/or testing activities, with a minimum notice of twenty four hours. Test results of compaction tests will be provided to our client representative in the field immediately upon completion of testing, followed by a written test report within a forty eight hour period. Results of all laboratory testing will be reported in writing within a forty eight hour period from the time the testing is completed. Compaction Testing Based on the anticipated amount of individual compaction tests requested in the RFP (15 - 44 on trench backfill and roadway structural section), and the cumulative total length and depth of utility trenches, and the amount of work days anticipated, we estimate an average of one to three compaction tests per day, with an approximate testing frequency of one test per two hundred linear feet of pipe installed, at depth intervals of approximately twelve inches, for a total of 15 days. We propose to provide 2 hours or less of on-site compaction testing services for each site visit. All utility trenches can be tested for relative compaction on a random basis at the discretion of the project inspector. Our testing technician will also provide subgrade and aggregate base compaction testing for the roadway improvements upon the completion of the new utilities and curb returns as well as inspection of footing excavations for retaining walls on Brush St. All soils compaction testing will be performed in accordance with ASTM D1557/D6938 (nuclear method). Subsequent asphalt paving will be tested in accordance with Caltrans test method CT 375/309 (nuclear method using maximum density). We propose to perform the asphalt pavement compaction testing on a total of 3 individual days when the anticipated total daily quantity of asphalt is at least 300 tons or greater. Materials Testing The testing technician will collect construction materials samples as required in the Project specifications and transport them to our Caltrans certified Willits laboratory for testing and analysis. The scope of services for materials testing requested in the RFP includes three individual samples of trench backfill to be tested for quality requirements (Sand Equivalent CT 217, and Sieve Analysis CT 202). Sampling of trench backfill material for the purpose of quality testing can be performed while on site for compaction testing and lead time for laboratory testing and reporting of test results are typically within 48 hours of sampling in the field. A minimum of one full five gallon bucket of material, sampled in accordance with Caltrans sampling method CT 125, is required to ensure the minimum amount of materials to perform laboratory quality testing. Sampling events will be coordinated with the city of Ukiah Inspector and/or the contractor's representative. Proposed Fee We understand that the Project is projected to have a construction period of 80 working 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 services will be completed in 20 nonconsecutive working days. Our estimated fees are based on daily rates, including two hour onsite, plus travel expenses, for the number of working days anticipated for our scope of work on the Project. SHN does not have minimum time charges per site visit and we will invoice the City only for time spent performing the required services. Where possible, we will combine multiple tasks into one trip to reduce testing and inspection costs for the project. We propose to provide the required services on accrued time and expenses as set forth below and the final cost will not exceed $13,060. Additional testing, if required, will be billed at the daily rate shown \ \ W i Ili ts\ projects\ 2017\ Promos\417000.106-N.StateTsting\PUBS\ promos\ 20170823-CoflJ—ProposaLcioc �a,l./ Mr. Jarod Thiele Testing Services for the North State St. Intersection - Low Gap & Brush St. Project, Spec.
