O. Box 9277 Corpus Christi,Texas 78469-9277 Attn: Ms. Marisa Alaniz,E.I.T. MarisaAl@cctexas.com Ref: Revised Proposal for Geotechnical Services E18014A Everhart Road—SPID to Holly Road Corpus Christi,Texas TWE Proposal No.: P18-C097R1 Dear Ms. Alaniz, Tolunay-Wong Engineers, Inc. (TWE) is pleased to submit this revised proposal to provide geotechnical services for the referenced project. This proposal presents a general description of the project, our proposed scope of services to be provided and the estimated cost for completion of our services associated with the project. Project Overview We understand that the project will involve reconstruction of a segment of Everhart Road in Corpus Christi, Texas with either a flexible (asphalt) or rigid (concrete) pavement sections(s) as well as replacement of underground utilities as needed. Everhart Road from South Padre Island Drive (SPID)to Holly Road is about 3750 feet long with an asphalt surface. Visual observations indicate the street is in poor condition with asphalt cracking, patches, and some uneven lanes. We understand that the road receives a mixture of mostly commercial and residential vehicular traffic. The results of a traffic count of all vehicles on Everhart Road during September 21, 2017 (24 hour period) were provided as part of the request for proposal. However, an actual traffic count of the vehicular mix has not been made available to us at the current time. We understand that traffic information will be provided to us for this study. Scope of Services We will provide the personnel, equipment and materials necessary to complete the requirements of our scope of services. Our scope of services can be categorized into three major areas: field program, laboratory testing and engineering analysis/report preparation. The purpose of our geotechnical services will be to provide the geotechnical information needed to assist the Client in the design and construction of the new roadway cross section(s). Field Program The subsurface conditions along this segment of Everhart Road will be explored by performing a total of nine (9) test borings, spaced about 500 feet apart, as requested. The requested exploratory depths are three (3) test borings to depths of 25-ft and six (6) test borings to depths of 5-ft below existing grade. It is planned that the borings will be drilled with truck mounted drilling equipment.

TWE Proposal No.P18-C097R1 Traffic control will be provided by Highway Barricades and Services, LLC (HBS). We anticipate that the traffic control devices used will consist of a two (2) man crew with truck-mounted attenuators, arrow boards, signage and channelizing devices. A traffic control plan will be submitted on July 25, 2018 by HBS on behalf of TWE to the City Traffic Engineering department for their approval so that the necessary permit can be obtained. The test boring locations will be identified by TWE and surveyed using a hand-held global positioning system(GPS) device. This proposal does not include pricing for professional surveying services to provide precise coordinates and elevations of the test boring locations. If necessary, pricing for these services can be provided upon request by the Client. Once the test boring locations are identified within the project site, we will notify the Texas 811 One Call System prior to the commencement of our field program for clearance of subsurface utilities and/or pipelines within the project site. Our field personnel will have the appropriate safety training and will be equipped with the appropriate personal protective equipment for work on an active City street. Our geotechnical services will be under the direction of a Professional Engineer experienced in geotechnical engineering. Our test borings will be logged by an experienced geotechnician. We will dry-auger the test borings until groundwater is observed or until borehole conditions require the use of wash-rotary drilling methods. When groundwater is encountered,the level will be allowed to stabilize for about ten(10)minutes to fifteen(15)minutes prior to completing the test borings. Geotechnical drilling and sampling will be performed in accordance with ASTM International standards. Samples will be obtained continuously to a depth of 12-ft, at the 13-ft to 15-ft depth and at 5-ft depth intervals thereafter until the boring completion depth is reached. The existing pavement section(s) will be penetrated by dry augering and the thickness of the pavement section component(s)will be carefully measured and recorded by the geotechnician. Fine-grained, cohesive soils will be sampled using pushed, thin-walled Shelby tubes with an inside diameter of 2.87-in. Our geotechnician will conduct field strength measurements using a pocket penetrometer or hand torvane device on each cohesive soil sample recovered. The samples will be wrapped in foil, placed in labeled moisture sealed plastic bags, and placed in core boxes to minimize disturbance prior to transport to our laboratory. Where coarse-grained, cohesionless and semi-cohesionless soils are encountered, sampling will be performed using standard penetration test (SPT) methods. Our geotechnician will monitor the driving resistance and record blow counts while performing the SPTs. The disturbed samples from the SPT sampling will be placed in labeled moisture sealed plastic bags and delivered to our laboratory. The boreholes will be backfilled with soil cuttings and, as needed, imported backfill materials upon completion of drilling and sampling. The surface of the boreholes will be repaired with an asphalt cold patch or freshly mixed bagged concrete,whichever is appropriate.

TWE Proposal No.P18-C097R1 Laboratory Testing Selected samples from the test borings will be used for laboratory testing. Our laboratory testing program will include properties such as moisture content, unit weight, unconfined compressive strength, unconsolidated-undrained triaxial compressive strength, Atterberg Limits and grain size distribution including percent passing No. 200 sieve. Engineering Analysis/Report Preparation Engineering analysis will be conducted utilizing the information collected during our field program and laboratory testing services. We will provide geotechnical design and construction recommendations for the proposed roadway rehabilitation. We will present the results and findings of our geotechnical services in a final written report. Electronic and hard copies of our final report will be issued to the Client as requested. Our fmal report will include the following: a. Discussion and conclusions of findings including: • Summary of field and laboratory tasks; • Existing project site conditions; • Subsurface soil and groundwater conditions; • Boring logs presenting tabulated field and laboratory test results; b. The boring log from test boring CD-7 (TWE Project No. 14.53.006). The subsurface soil and groundwater information indicated by the test boring CD-7 will be utilized during the analysis of pavements and foundations; c. Geotechnical design recommendations for the proposed roadway rehabilitation in accordance with the AASHTO Guide for Design and Pavement Structures including suitable flexible and rigid pavement sections for 20-yr and 30-hr service periods, suitability of recycling the existing pavement section for incorporation into the new pavement section, layer material types, layer material thicknesses and subgrade support characteristics. Several thickness combinations of each pavement component will be considered as well as options for either lime stabilization or the use of geogrid as a substitute for lime stabilization. A locally available crushed concrete will be considered as a substitute for crushed limestone as flexible base material; d. Geotechnical design recommendations for the proposed signal pole foundations including drilled shaft foundation type, diameter and embedment length based on results of the test borings; e. Geotechnical design recommendations for the proposed underground utility installations including OSHA soil classifications and soil design parameters for trench excavation and braced excavation design;and, f. Geotechnical construction considerations including site and subgrade preparation, in-place soil stabilization, fill and backfill placement, compaction requirements, foundation installation and overall quality control inspection,monitoring and testing guidelines.
