Proposal for Geotechnical Evaluation <br />1737 Main Street, Centerville, MN <br />May 3, 2023 <br />• Subgrade preparation recommendations and procedures; <br />• Recommendations for proposed foundation system(s), including bearing capabilities of sub -soils <br />encountered based on the recommended foundation type and corresponding bearing elevation; <br />• Foundation settlement analysis for expected loading conditions, including total and differential <br />settlement; <br />• Frost design requirement; <br />• Active, at -rest, and passive earth pressures for loading dock and retaining wall design, if applicable; <br />• Coefficient of friction against sliding at the base of foundations; <br />• Vertical Subgrade modulus; <br />• Slab -on -grade recommendations (base course type / thickness, and Subgrade modulus); <br />• Recommended guidelines for compacted fill; <br />• Estimated seismic Site classification; <br />• Recommended flexible and rigid pavement design thicknesses; <br />• Stability of cut slopes and temporary excavation support; and <br />• Surface and subsurface drainage considerations. <br />Our geotechnical engineering report will also include a boring location plan, boring logs with soil <br />classifications, field and laboratory test results, and procedures used in sampling and laboratory testing. <br />C4L91-11 <br />Our lump sum cost to complete the outlined scope of services is broken out as follows: <br />Task 1 - Exploratory Drilling and Sampling Program (One Day) <br />(exploration layout/coordination, soil borings, sampling, and field oversight) $ 5,900 <br />Task 2: Laboratory Testing $ 2,000 <br />Task 3: Geotechnical Report 3,000 <br />Total for Geotechnical Services: $ 10,900 <br />SCHEDULE <br />VIEAU/GZA will begin performing our proposed scope of work upon receipt of a signed proposal. Based on <br />current drilling schedules, it will require approximately two weeks to schedule the drill rig for the <br />geotechnical work. We assume we will have unhindered Site access to the areas needed. One (1) day of <br />drilling is anticipated. We will receive laboratory results approximately two weeks after they are submitted <br />under normal turnaround. The Geotechnical Engineering Report will be provided approximately two weeks <br />following explorations and laboratory testing. <br />REQUESTED INFORMATION <br />For this Scope of Services, we request that Centerville provide us with the following in order to meet the <br />Schedule above: <br />• A Site base plan (in reproducible and in AutoCAD 2018 electronic format) with topography, <br />utilities, and conceptual Site layout; <br />• Contact names and telephone numbers for facility and key project personnel for coordination <br />during the utility clearance of the exploration program and to schedule field activities; and <br />• Access to the boring locations. <br />3 <br />
