Subject: Proposal to Provide Testing Services for Road Infrastructure Improvements,
Specifications No. 17-07 and 17-09
Dear Mr. Thiele:
Thank you for the opportunity for SHN Consulting Engineers & Geologists, Inc. (SHN) to offer this
proposal to the City of Ukiah (City) to provide Testing Services for Road Infrastructure Improvements
(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
SHN's construction materials testing staff is comprised of civil and geotechnical 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 A - 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, 707463-6755
❖ Chestnut Street Corridor Improvements - City of Fort Bragg - client contact: Toni 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
September 27, 2017. Following is a discussion of SHN's approach to providing the specific construction
materials testing services outlined in the RFP.

Testing Services for Road Infrastructure Improvements Project, Spec. No. 17-07,17-09
October 10, 2017

Scheduling and Reporting of Test Results
The RFP indicates a construction start date of late September, 2017, and materials acceptance testing
anticipated to start shortly thereafter. SHN will be in direct contact with the City Engineer or GHD
representatives for scheduling of any field sampling and/or testing activities, with a minimum notice of
twenty four hours. 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 updated on a weekly basis.
Results of all laboratory testing will be reported in writing within a 48 hour period from the time the
testing is completed.
Compaction Testing (17-07 & 17-09)
Based on the anticipated amount of individual compaction tests requested in the RFP, the cumulative
total length of proposed roadway improvements, and the amount of work days anticipated, we estimate
an average of one to four compaction tests per day on sub -grade and aggregate base materials, with
testing frequencies determined by the project inspector. We propose to provide 2 hours or less of on-site
compaction testing services for each site visit. All test locations can be selected for relative compaction
on a random basis at the discretion of the project inspector. All soils compaction testing will be
performed in accordance with Caltrans Test 216/231 (Relative Compaction). 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 continuous basis when
the anticipated total daily quantity of asphalt is at least 300 tons or greater. For HMA compaction
testing, we propose to provide 4 hours or more of on-site compaction testing services for each site visit
during paving operations.
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, see Attachment
B. The scope of services for materials testing requested in the RFP for both 17-07 & 17-09 includes
compaction curves (CT 216) on subgrade and aggregate base materials, HMA Maximum Theoretical
Specific Gravity (CT 309), HMA core density (CT 308), and concrete samples tested for compressive
strength (Cl' 521). Sampling events will be coordinated with the City of Ukiah Inspector/GHD and/or
the contractor's representative.
Proposed Fee
We understand that the Project is projected to have a construction period of 120 and 100 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 22 nonconsecutive
working days for Redwood Business Park (17-09) and 21 nonconsecutive working days for Talmage
Road Interchange (17-07). Our estimated fees are based on first shift hourly rates, 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 $26,896 for 17-09 and $19,015 for 17-07. Additional testing, if required, will be
billed at the following daily rates. '171is proposal is to be considered a firm offer for a minimum period of
thirty (30) days after the submittal date.
