SUBJECT: PROPOSAL TO PERFORM A SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION, LABORATORY
TESTING PROGRAM,AND PROVIDE GEOTECHNICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR THE PROPOSED
SOUTH STAPLES STREET RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT
Baldwin Boulevard to Kostoryz Road
Corpus Christi,Texas
RETL Proposal Number: P091318B
Dear Ms. Alaniz,
Rock Engineering and Testing Laboratory, Inc. (RETL) (TBPE Firm No. 2101) is pleased to submit the
following proposal to provide a subsurface investigation, laboratory testing, and a Geotechnical
recommendations report to be used during the design of the proposed South Staples Street complete
reconstruction project from Baldwin Boulevard to Kostoryz Road located in Corpus Christi,Texas.
Based on information provided to RETL, the project will include the complete reconstruction of
approximately 4700 LF of an arterial roadway having 2 travel lanes in each direction with a continuous
center turn lane. It is understood that the profile grade line of the roadway will remain approximately the
same. The major utilities (water, sanitary sewer, natural gas) and storm sewer systems will be upgraded
as part of the improvements.
As directed by the City of Corpus Christi's Engineering Services Department, RETL will perform six
borings to a termination depth of 5-feet,two borings to a termination depth of 15-feet, and two borings to
a termination depth of 30-feet at the designated locations provided by the City of Corpus Christi. (Total
number of Borings: 10; Total linear feet of Drilling: 120 LF). RETL will obtain pavement cores and
sample, identify and measure the pavement constituents at the six boring locations.
Additionally,RETL will perform the following:
• Evaluate the subsurface soils within the limits of the proposed roadway rehabilitation project by
obtaining information on the in-situ soils and groundwater conditions and to provide flexible and
rigid pavement sections suitable for 30-year pavement designs.

September 13,2018 Baldwin Boulevard to Kostoryz Road
Attn: Ms. Marisa Alaniz,EIT City of Corpus Christi
RETL Proposal No.:P091318B
• Provide recommendations for the use of either reinforced concrete or non-reinforced concrete
pavement and the suitability for each option.
• Provide soil parameters, trench excavation design parameters, OSHA soil type classification and
recommendations needed by the contractor/engineer to design braced excavations for installation
of underground utilities.
The scope of work is outlined below.
Scope of the Proposed Subsurface Investigation
• RETL requests that the boring/core locations are staked in the field prior to the field investigation.
• Coordination with Texas One Call will be performed by RETL to identify underground utilities in the
proximity of the boring/core locations. The borings/cores will be relocated if necessary.
• RETL will provide proper traffic control and traffic control devices as required by the City of Corpus
Christi during our field investigation.
• The borings will be sampled continuously to depths of 10-feet, and at 5-foot intervals thereafter to the
termination depth of the borings.
• Groundwater readings will be obtained during drilling and immediately upon completion of the
drilling operations.
• After obtaining the delayed groundwater readings, the open boreholes will be backfilled with excess
soils obtained during the drilling operations, the base material will be replaced in the boreholes and
patched with cold mix.
Scope of Laboratory Testing Program
• Supplementary Visual Classification(ASTM D2487)
• Water Content Tests (ASTM D2216)
• Atterberg Limits Tests(ASTM D4318)
• Unconfined Compression Tests (ASTM D2166)
• Percent passing No. 200 (ASTM D1140)
• Laboratory Electrical Resistivity Tests (ASTM G57)
• pH of Soil (ASTM G51)
• Soluble Chlorides (ASTM D512)
• Soluble Sulfates(ASTM D516)
The preceding test methods may be performed on selected samples, depending on the actual subsurface
conditions encountered. All phases of the laboratory testing program will be performed in general
accordance with applicable ASTM Specifications. All laboratory test results will be provided in the report
or included on the boring logs.

September 13,2018 Baldwin Boulevard to Kostoryz Road
Attn:Ms. Marisa Alaniz,EIT City of Corpus Christi
RETL Proposal No.: P091318B
Projected Schedule
After authorization, it is estimated that the drilling operations can begin within 5 to 10 business days and
the final report will be submitted within three weeks of the completed fieldwork. RETL will consult with
the engineers as field and laboratory test results become available by providing preliminary
recommendations as required to assist in design. If adjustments to the proposed timeline are required to
meet the existing project schedule, please contact RETL so that we can accommodate your needs.
Geotechnical Engineering Report
In addition to the field and laboratory testing, a geotechnical engineering report will be prepared that
includes a description of the field exploration and laboratory tests, boring logs, a discussion of the
engineering properties of the subsurface materials encountered, trench excavation design parameters,
OSHA soil type classification, utility trench recommendations and pavement recommendations for the
proposed project utilizing the following information provided to RETL by the owner:
• Flow Line of Utilities,
• Street Elevations,
• Traffic Counts,
• Projected Percent Growth of Traffic Over Life of Pavement,
• Design Vehicles, and
• Percent Trucks.
