Geotechnical Engineering Analysis. Evaluate Field and Laboratory Data: Based on the borings and the geotechnical laboratory test results of selected samples, HWA will generate estimates of the soil strength and other properties needed to evaluate the effects the subsurface conditions will have on the proposed improvements. • Develop Geologic Cross-Sections: HWA will construct a geologic cross-section along the centerline of the project. This cross-section will show soil conditions along the bridge alignment and will be provided in a geotechnical report. • Generate AASHTO Seismic Design Parameters: Based on the soils encountered along the alignment, HWA will determine the Site Class for seismic design. The design spectral acceleration parameters will then be selected in accordance with the AASHTO Specifications for Roads and Bridges. • Evaluate Slope Stability: HWA will evaluate the global slope stability of the steep slopes to identify potential impacts on the project. Results of the field reconnaissance, exploration, and testing programs will be incorporated into the analysis. Global stability will be evaluated using the limit equilibrium approach under both static and seismic loading conditions. Additionally, HWA will evaluate the anticipated stability of the proposed eastern bridge approach. • Evaluate Soils for Liquefaction and Lateral Spread Potential: HWA will evaluate the susceptibility to liquefaction of the soils along the bridge alignment for the design event required by AASHTO. Once the susceptibility to liquefaction is determined, we will evaluate the potential for lateral spreading. • Evaluate Soils for Settlement Potential: HWA will evaluate the subsurface soil conditions for settlement potential. If compressible soils are present, HWA will conduct settlement analysis associated with various bridge configurations. • Conceptual Ground Improvement Evaluations: HWA will evaluate the subsurface soil conditions and determine if ground improvements are expected to be required to support the design and construction of the proposed improvements. If ground improvements are needed, HWA will provide concept-level recommendations to support the TS&L evaluation. • Evaluate Bridge Foundation Vertical Capacity: XXX will perform analyses of foundation vertical capacities using accepted drilled shaft and/or spread footing estimation methods provided in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Specifications and the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Geotechnical Design Manual (GDM). • Evaluat...
