F. Develop one preliminary cost opinion of probable construction cost based upon <br /> approved design direction. <br /> <br />G. Meet with Redwood City Project Team on a weekly basis throughout this phase of <br /> the project for a total of seven times. This represents meetings continuing from <br /> August 29, 1996 through October 10, 1996. Each meeting will be budgeted for 2 <br /> hours each, inclusive of any travel from our office. <br /> <br />H. Conduct a full geotechnical evaluation of the proposed project site(s) based upon <br /> the following scope of work as prepared by Lowney Associates, Inc. <br /> <br /> Geoteehnieal Engineer's Project Description <br /> <br /> 1. We understand that the project is to consist of the construction of a new <br /> tim station and maintenance building on the approximately 2 acre site. <br /> The fire station is to be one-story with approximately 5,000 square feet of <br /> floor space; the "pre-engineered" maintenance building is to encompass a <br /> footprint of approximately 2,500 square feet. While no preliminary <br /> grading plans are available, we anticipate that only minor grading will be <br /> required for this relatively flat site. We understand that driven pile or <br /> shallow foundation systems may be considered for support of the <br /> buildings. Asphaltic and Portland Cement concrete driveway and parking <br /> areas are planned as well as associated underground utilities. <br /> <br /> 1R The project scope has been amended to include a similar scope of study <br /> for the relocated Maintenance Facility at the South Bayside System <br /> Authority Site (SBSA), 1400 Radio Road, Redwood City, CA. Refer to <br /> DES Conceptual Site Plan, referenced as Sheet Al.2, dated November 1, <br /> 1996. <br /> <br /> 2. ,~nticipated Foundation Design: Our local experience and review of <br /> boring logs from previous geotechnical investigations performed in the <br /> vicinity indicate that the site is likely blanketed by 3 to 4 feet of fill <br /> underlain by 30 to 35 feet of highly compressible Bay Mud. The Bay <br /> Mud is underlain by stiffto very stiff clayey alluvial deposits extending to <br /> depths greater than 500 feet, with occasional strata of sand or gravel. <br /> Based on these anticipated soil conditions and the relatively light <br /> structural loads associated with the proposed one-story structure, the <br /> buildings could most likely be supported on shallow foundations <br /> consisting of either grid footings or mat foundations. Therefore, our scope <br /> of services that follows was developed to provide shallow foundation <br /> recommendations. <br /> <br /> P~eSofl7 <br /> <br /> <br />
