Re: Subsurface Exploration
Runway 17-35 Pavement Rehabilitation
Corpus Christi, Texas
PSI Proposal No.: 325-6005
Dear Mr Escobar:
Professional ServIce Industries, Inc. (PSI) is pleased to submit the following proposal for
performance of pavement evaluation for the Runway 17-35 rehabilitation project. The subsurface
exploration will be conducted to provide information needed in the design of the rehabilitation of
Runway 17-35 at the Corpus Christi International Airport (CCIA) located in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Based on the information provided during a February 1, 2206 meeting at CCIA, the project
is to consist of the rehabilitation of the 6,088 foot long and 150 feet wide runway.
The pavement evaluation will include the following services:
· Sampling and testing the subsurface materials and limited observation of
groundwater conditions on the site, to depths that would significantly affect
the performance of the pavement.
· Identify select physical and engineering characteristics of materials
encountered during the sampling and testing.
· Conduct a visual assessment of the condition of the surface of the existing
runway
· Conduct non-destructive testing of the pavement using the falling weight
deflection (FWD) testing method.
· Provide recommendations regarding flexible pavement overlay m

PSI Proposal No. 12'-4(15 i
February 8. 2006
compliance y\ith FAA Advisory circular 150/5320-6D.
· Provide recommendations for general site preparation.
We propose to begin the program with the non-destructive testing of the pavement using the
FWD test procedure. Once analyzed, the results of this testing will help PSI identify areas of
interest for subsequent pavement cores and subsurface sampling and investigation. We have
mcluded 15 bore holes advanced to depths of approximately ten (10) feet below current surface
elevation in this proposal. of which a minimum of ] 0 is anticipated.
We understand the runway is currently closed for culvert improvements and that our sub-
consultant would be allowed to the project site provided they are escorted by a properly badged PSI
representative. The estimate included herein does not provide for night or weekend work.
The subsurface exploration will include laboratory testing of the samples obtained to
evaluate the classification, unconfined strength, CBR, plasticity, grain-size distribution, and other
characteristics of the subsurface and pavement materials involved. The results of the field
exploration and laborator:-' tests will be used in the engineering analysis and in the formulation of
recommendations. The results of the subsurface exploration, including the recommendations and
the data on which they are based, will be presented in a vvritten report prepared by senior licensed
professional engineers.
PSI is familiar with local subsurface conditions and has participated in the planning,
development and execution of foundation evaluations in the project area. In addition, PSI engineers
have provided recommendations for foundation design criteria and construction considerations for
projects similar to the one proposed.
PSI laboratories are equipped with modern soil equipment, and field exploration programs
are conducted with modem drilling equipment. Field and laboratory testing is performed by
trained, qualified technicians under the guidance and supervision of senior licensed professional
engmeers.
The fee for the performance of the above outlined services was determined on a unit price
hasis in accordance with the attached Schedule of Services and Fees. The work will be
performed pursuant to the PSI General Conditions. Copies of the PSI Schedule of Services and
Fees and General Conditions are enclosed herewith and incorporated into this proposal. On the
basis of the estimated quantities and the Schedule of Services and Fees, the total estimated fee is
$24,650.00. A project cost breakdown is as follows:

Our cost covers the work needed to present our findings and recommendations in a report
form. Not included are costs associated with locating underground utilities, stand-by, rock coring,
environmental drilling and sampling. reviewing foundation drawings, preparing construction
specifications, attending special conferences and any other work requested after submittal of our
report. ()ur fees are based on the use of a rubber tired drill rig. The cost of additional equipment to
provide access will be billed at cost plus 15%. Our fees may be increased by up to 5% to mitigate
any additional risk born by PSI by the alteration or exclusion of our general conditions.
The City of Corpus Christi will be responsible for runway closures and all required and
appropriate FAA notifications. runway barricades, and end lighting.
The PSI will contact Texas One Call for utility clearance. It is our experience, however,
that this service does not provide locations for utilities on private property. The owner will locate
and clearly mark all utilities prior to our arrival on site.
We anticipate that the non-destructive testing can begin within two (2) weeks following
your authorization, if site and weather conditions permit. The field operations are expected to take
two (2) days to complete. The coring and subsurface exploration is expecting to take two (2) days
to complete. We estimate that the report will take six (6) weeks to complete beginning on the day
that we start the F\VD testing.
PSI will proceed with the work only after receipt of a signed copy of this proposal intact.
When returning the proposaL please complete the attached Project Data Sheet so that PSI may
best serve your project.

occurs between these terms and conditions and this AGREEMENT, these
terms and conditions are controlling.
8 2 In the event that anyone or more of the provIsions contained in this
AGREEMENT are for any reason held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the remaining terms will be in full effect and this AGREEMENT will
be construed as if the invalid or unenforceable matters were never included
in this AGREEMENT. No waiver of any default will be a waiver of any future
