Preliminary Foundation Report Sample Clauses

Preliminary Foundation Report. To support the preliminary design phase of the project, CONSULTANT will prepare a PFR in general accordance with Caltrans standards found in the Caltrans Geotechnical Manual - Foundation Reports for Bridges (January 2021). The purpose of the PFR will be to document existing conditions, make preliminary foundation recommendations, and fine-tune the scope of additional design-level geotechnical investigations. Preparation of the PFR will be based on literature review, aerial photograph interpretation, review of as-built data, review of existing geotechnical documents, and site reconnaissance. The PFR will include the following: • Summary of site geology and anticipated subsurface conditions • Project location description • Summary of as-built foundation data (if available) • Preliminary Scour Evaluation based on Hydrology/Hydraulic and geotechnical information available • Seismic study • Initial liquefaction potential assessment • Initial corrosion evaluation (if data available) • Preliminary foundation recommendations • Recommended additional field work and laboratory testing Pre-Field Activities. Office research will consist of the following: • Review design plans to determine exploratory boring locations. • Review of literature to obtain background information of regional geology, seismicity and ground water. • Examination of aerial photographs. • Perform a site reconnaissance to review project limits, determine drill rig access and mark out exploratory boring locations for subsequent utility clearance. • Contacting of underground service alert to locate onsite utility lines a minimum of 48-hours (as required by law) prior to performing exploratory excavations at the site. • Obtaining temporary lane closure permits. • Submit requisite fees, prepare applications, and obtain permits from the following agencies, as necessary: Boring Permit (Placer County Environmental Health Department; Encroachment Permit). • Retain the services of a California C57-licensed drilling subcontractor to perform exploratory borings (rock coring is not expected for this site). • Retain the service of a geophysicist for conducting a seismic refraction survey subsurface site characterization (if needed – not anticipated for this site due to lack of bedrock).

Preliminary Foundation Report. CAInc will prepare a Preliminary Foundation Report as part of alternatives analysis, Type Selection and preliminary cost estimates. The memorandum will be based on available subsurface data, as-built drawings, published geologic mapping and seismicity data, aerial photographs, preliminary project data and a site review. No subsurface exploration will be completed for this task. The Preliminary Foundation Memorandum will summarize anticipated earth materials and conditions based on reference data and site exposures; provide seismic input parameters consistent with current Caltrans practice; discuss roadway approaches, retaining walls and pavement options; and discuss foundation types, channel scour and liquefaction potential. Shall include a description of the project; a site description; geologic conditions; a summary of field explorations, laboratory testing and design recommendations. Design recommendations shall include:

Preliminary Foundation Report. Yeh will compile and review published reports, maps, historical photos, and drawings pertinent to the proposed project. This review will specifically include reviewing Log of Test Borings prepared for the overcrossing completed by Caltrans in the1950’s and 1990’s. Yeh will perform a preliminary geotechnical evaluation of the site using the existing information and prepare a Preliminary Foundation Report for Earth Retaining Systems (PFR) for the proposed project in accordance with Caltrans guidelines. The report will be submitted for review by the design team. Comments and input from their review will be incorporated into reports prepared for the Design Phase services. The report will discuss the existing site setting, topography, drainage, regional and site geology, faulting and seismicity. The report will discuss the potential for the site and design of the project to be impacted geologic hazards such as seismic shaking, fault rupture, liquefaction or seismic settlement, erosion, slope instability and rock fall. Geotechnical considerations regarding the anticipated subsurface conditions, groundwater, excavation characteristics, soft ground, existing fills and grading for roadway construction will also be discussed and any specific geotechnical considerations related to the project alternatives. Preliminary recommendations for graded cut and fill slopes, the roadway structural sections (estimated based on an assumed R-value of 15 and Traffic Index of 12 indicated in the RFP). Anticipated wall types include Caltrans standard walls. Yeh will provide graphics as needed and discuss geotechnical considerations for wall type selection relative to the project and potential constraints. Deliverables: ✓ Preliminary Foundation Report for Earth Retaining Systems (PFR).

Preliminary Foundation Report. (PFR) A Preliminary Foundation Report (PFR) will be prepared in accordance with Caltrans Guidelines for Preparing Preliminary Foundation Reports, to cover the new improvements to the bridge structure. Preliminary foundation recommendations for bridge type selection and preliminary cost estimates will be based on our review of existing information and information collected during the site visit; no additional subsurface exploration will be performed at this time. Preliminary foundation recommendations will be developed in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and Caltrans Memos to Designers. The Preliminary Foundation Report will provide the following: • Seismic Design Criteria • Any special issues regarding groundwater, difficult excavation, expansive soils, or other hazards • Alternative types of foundations will be evaluated in consultation with the project structural engineer to allow selection of the most suitable type of foundation • Structure foundation type and foundation elevations • Potential bearing and pile capacities to evaluate the selected foundation • Anticipated fill settlement periods needed to prevent excess differential settlement between the structure and adjacent roadway approaches Deliverables – Task 2 ƒ Survey Control Monuments ƒ Topographic Base Mapping ƒ Rectified Aerial Photo at ½ inch per pixel ƒ Utility “A” Letters and Plans ƒ Preliminary Foundation Report (PFR)
