Site Reconnaissance/Field Investigation Sample Clauses

Site Reconnaissance/Field Investigation. Before initiating the drilling program, we would prepare a preliminary boring-location plan using available information We would conduct site visits to gather information about the field conditions, confirm access for the drilling equipment, and confirm maintenance-of-traffic (“MOT”) needs as appropriate. We would white-line the preliminary boring locations for underground-utility location and marking in accordance with Florida statutes and stake them to facilitate identification by the field crew and the project surveyors as needed. We would coordinate with utility-company representatives as needed to confirm and mark the locations of underground service facilities. Based on the indicated 500-foot spacing between borings, an examination of the Tetra Tech exhibit, and discussions with Tetra Tech staff, we estimated that 18 soil-test borings to ten feet and four soil-test borings to 30 feet (for the trenchless crossings) should be sufficient for this project. Tetra Tech selected nine locations for full-depth cores to assess pavement thickness and component-layer materials. Before starting the drilling program, our field crew will check the preliminary boring locations and adjust them as needed to avoid conflicts with the recently-marked underground utilities. The crew would drill the uppermost four feet of the borings by hand-auger as needed to reduce the risk of damage to other utilities that may not be marked, then continue drilling by continuous split-spoon sampling and mud-rotary methods. The crew would conduct the Standard Penetration Test (“SPT”) with each split-spoon sample in accordance with ASTM D1586. Tests would be conducted continuously from the bottom of the hand-auger interval to ten feet, and then at five-foot intervals to the indicated completion depths. Time will be needed to complete operations at each location, move the drilling equipment to the next boring location don and remove personal protective equipment, and decontaminate drill tools and rods in areas where possibly-contaminated soils are encountered. The currently-unknown cost of MOT resources (arrow boards, barricades, etc.) would be covered by conversion into hours of drill-rig-and-crew time. The field crew would log the soils recovered in the samplers, select representative samples, seal them in clean, airtight containers, and transport them to our office. They would measure the encountered groundwater depth in each borehole. and record the depth on the field logs. The crew wou...

Site Reconnaissance/Field Investigation. We would prepare a temporary boring-location plan using site information provided by Carollo staff. Before commencing the drilling program, we would conduct field visits to examine the site conditions, and xxxx the preliminary boring locations for underground-utility location and marking in accordance with Florida statutes. We would coordinate with appropriate utility companies and City staff as needed. Based on an approximate spacing of 400 feet, we anticipate drilling five borings. We would drill the borings using split-spoon sampling and mud-rotary methods. Our field crew would conduct the Standard Penetration Test (“SPT”) with the split-spoon sampling in accordance with ASTM D 1586. Tests would be conducted continuously from one foot below the existing ground surface to ten feet, and then at five-foot intervals to the indicated completion depths. The field crew would log the soil samples recovered in the auger or samplers and seal representative portions in clean, airtight containers for transportation to our office. They would measure the depth to groundwater in the boreholes, record the depths on the field logs, and backfill the boreholes with soil. Task 2 - Laboratory Testing – A geotechnical engineer would examine the recovered soil samples in our office to confirm the field descriptions and classify the soils using visual-manual methods. The engineer would select representative specimens for laboratory testing which would consist of 12 percent-fines (“single-sieve”) tests, 4 moisture content tests, 2 organic content tests and 2 Atterberg limits test series.
