However, the City's failure to request such documentation or evidence and/or failure to enforce in any way the terms and provisions of this Section, the Agreement and/or any other Consultant Service Order during the Project does not excuse, waive and/or condone in any way any noncompliance of the requirements set forth therein including, without limitation, the professional licensure requirements. Any approval of a Subconsultant by the City shall in no way shift from the Consultant to City the responsibility for the quality and acceptability of the services performed by the Subconsultant.

SCOPE OF SERVICES Geotechnical, soil testing and/or lab testing services are required for proper pre-planning of construction projects for the City. Many of the City's CIP and Public Works projects will require, during one time or another, a geotechnical, soils or lab testing report to validate either the City's Engineer's or any Architect's or Engineer of Records recommendations as to any site, building or any other project's unknown characteristics. Through this agreement the City will be able to adequately plan and incorporate geotechnical and soil testing services as part of the pre- construction preparatory work, which is a phase of every City construction project. In addition, the Geotechnical firm(s) would provide personnel that are qualified, trained and thoroughly familiar with the City's rules, policies, and procedures in inspection, sampling testing, and reporting various areas and stages of construction. The ability to have a list of Geotechnical firms to be contacted on an as needed basis would enable the City to utilize these services when the need arises. 1.0 Geotechnical Services • The Consultant shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, transportation, and other appurtenant work for performing subsurface explorations, obtaining representative samples, and performing all other geotechnical services. • The Consultant shall comply with all federal, state, and local rules and regulations with regard to permits, bonds, drilling, plugging, and all other applicable aspects of drilling. • The Consultant shall research and review all pertinent existing geologic and geotechnical data and information available from USGS, area development, and the company's own files. • The Consultant shall review the proposed project information and requested scope of work indicated as a minimum level of services desired relative to the anticipated subsurface conditions present. If localized subsurface conditions are expected to vary significantly, Consultant shall advise Owner of additional recommended services prior to commencing work. • The Consultant shall be responsible for contacting the appropriate agencies (state/city utility check) for determining locations of utilities in the vicinity of the actual boring locations. • Borings shall be backfilled to the original ground surface in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal guidelines. • Consultant shall perform the standard penetration test (SPT) in accordance with ASTM Designation D 1586. • In soil that is predominantly cohesive (silty clays, sandy clays, and material with adhesive binder), Consultant shall use the thin-walled tube method for sampling in accordance with ASTM Designation D 1587. • Rock coring shall be performed in accordance with ASTM Designation D 2113. • Double-ring infiltration test shall be conducted in accordance with ASTM Designation D 5093. • Laboratory tests shall be assigned and performed by the Consultant to classify soils and obtain geotechnical physical characteristics such as strength, compressibility, swell 26 potential, compaction characteristics, and chemical characteristics such as corrosiveness. Perform laboratory testing consistent in quantity and quality with local geotechnical engineering practice to provide the required design parameters and recommendations. The quantity of tests to be performed will be dependent upon the type of soil and/or rock encountered during drilling and sampling with additional consideration of the foundation types that may be required to support the proposed structures. • The Consultant shall prepare a geotechnical engineering report containing a discussion of the proposed construction, final boring logs, boring location plan, a description of the drilling and sampling program, a description of the geology and subsurface conditions encountered, groundwater conditions, laboratory test results, and foundation and earthwork recommendations and design parameters. The following is a list of major items that shall appear in the geotechnical engineering report: • Previous Construction Activity and Existing Fill (If present): A discussion of previous construction activity shall address any existing fills or subsurface openings, if encountered. Outline the engineering properties of any existing fills with regard to foundation design. • Subsurface Conditions: Subsurface conditions encountered at the site shall be discussed, based upon stratigraphic sequence observed and local geology. Figures shall be provided displaying soil borings and generalized cross sections. A general description of the engineering properties or parameters determined from the investigation and applied to design recommendations shall be provided. Prevailing groundwater elevations observed and those recommended for design shall be noted. • Site Preparation Recommendations: Provide grading and site preparation recommendations taking into consideration the conceptual grading plan for the site. • Compaction Requirements: The report shall contain detailed and specific criteria for acceptable embankment, fill, or backfill materials and address whether the available borrow material on site is suitable for general or structural fill. The report shall contain recommendations for material usage at the site with regard to placement and compaction requirements as well as any recommended treatment. Compaction criteria, including acceptable gradations, moisture control, compactive effort, and need for proofrolling shall be discussed, including criteria for both granular and cohesive fill, if applicable. Preparation of subgrades for fill and backfill placement shall be discussed. • Foundation Design: The geotechnical engineering report prepared by the Consultant will be used 'to size and structurally design stable foundations for the structures. To accomplish this task, the report shall contain recommendations in regard to the recommended foundation type for each structure, as loading and site conditions may require. The report shall provide net allowable bearing pressures for shallow spread footings and mats, at recommended bearing.depths, considering the types of materials supporting the mats, and note whether any overstressing is allowed under short-term loading such as dynamic, wind, or seismic loading conditions. If over-excavation of unsuitable materials and backfill with structural backfill are required to improve the foundation soils to allow the use of shallow foundations, provide estimated vertical and horizontal extent of the over-excavation and structural backfill. Provide estimated total and differential settlement for foundations using the recommended bearing pressures. Provide an estimate of the time of settlement. Note factors of safety included or recommended. Provide recommendations for resistance to lateral loads, such as passive 27 earth pressures and sliding friction for the base of foundations. Provide recommended groundwater level for determination of buoyancy and means to resist buoyant forces, if needed. Recommendations for deep foundations shall include diameter, depth;and any recommended installation requirements. Provide allowable design loading capacities for vertical downward loading, vertical upward loading, and horizontal loading, as appropriate to the site conditions. Provide design parameters for analysis of laterally loaded drilled piers as required for input into lateral pile capacity software. All factors of safety utilized in developing the allowable load capacities shall be outlined in detail. • Slope Stability and Excavations: The report shall address the recommended inclination of both temporary excavation and permanent slopes. • Excavation Requirements: If necessary, a section of the report shall address the excavatibility of the soils and rock which may be exposed during foundation excavation and site grading. The effort and type of equipment utilized to perform excavations is dependent upon the size and depth of the excavation.

AS THE NINTH RANKED PROPOSERS;AND FURTHER AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS WITH EACH OF THE FOREGOING PROPOSERS UPON CONCLUSION OF SUCCESSFUL NEGOTIATIONS BY THE ADMINISTRATION. RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. ANALYSIS The City requires the services of consulting firms to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services for the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Public Works Departments. For five (5) years,the City has contracted with several consulting firms to provide these services. In order to consider a replacement contract, the City is seeking proposals from qualified firm(s) to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services. Geotechnical, soil testing and/or lab testing services are required for proper pre-planning of construction projects for the City. Many of the City's CIP and Public Works projects will require, during one time or another, a geotechnical, soils or lab testing report to validate either the City's Engineer's or any Architect's or Engineer of Records recommendations as to any site, building or any other project's unknown characteristics. Through the issuance of this RFQ the City will.be able to adequately plan and incorporate geotechnical and soil testing services as part of the pre-construction preparatory work,which is a phase of every City construction project. In addition,the Geotechnical firm(s)would provide personnel that are qualified', • Page 506 of 1637 46 L._ trained and thoroughly familiar with the City's rules,policies, and procedures in inspection, sampling testing, and reporting various areas and stages of construction. The ability to have a list of Geotechnical firms to be contacted on an as needed basis would enable the City to utilize these. services when the need arises. RFQ PROCESS On April 11,2018,the City Commission approved to issue the Request for Qualifications(RFQ)NO. 2018-097-KB,for citywide geotechnical and laboratory testing services on an as-needed basis. On April 12,2018,the RFQ was issued.The Procurement Department issued solicitation notices to 683 firms utilizing www.publicpurchase.com. 62 prospective proposers accessed the advertised solicitation.A voluntary pre-proposal conference to provide information to the proposers submitting a response was-held on April 25,2018.RFQ responses were due and received on July 30,2018. The City received proposals from the following nine(9)firms: • GFA International, Inc. • Nutting Engineers of Florida, Inc. • • Professional Service Industries,Inc. • RADISE International, LC • Terracon Consultants,Inc. • Tierra South Florida, Inc. • Universal Engineering Sciences,Inc • Wingerter Laboratories • Wood Environment&Infrastructure Solutions.Inc. On August 14,2018 the.City Manager appointed the Evaluation Committee via LTC#454-2018.The Evaluation ConYnittee convened on August 23,2018 and.September 10,2018 to consider proposals received.The second rreeting was held since one firm inadvertently failed receive the notification of the evaluation committee. The committee was comprised of Pilar Caurin, Capital Projects Coordinator, Capital Improvement Projects Office, City of Miami Beach; Eugene Egertta, Engineer, Public Works, City of Miami Beach; Pedro Fuentes, Engineer, Public Works, City of Miami Beach; Jose Perez, Capital Project Coordinator, Capital Improvement Projects Office, City of Miami Beach; Jorge Rodriguez, Capital Project Coordinator, Capital Improvement Projects Office, City of Miami Beach The Committee was provided an overview of the project, informationrelative to the City's Cone of Silence I Ordinance and the Government Sunshine Law. The Committee was also provided with general information on the scope of services, a copy of each proposal, and a presentation by each proposing firm. The Committee was instructed to score and rank each proposal pursuant to the evaluation criteria established in the RFQ.The evaluation process resulted in the ranking of proposers as indicated in Attachment A,in the following order: 1. RADISE International,LC 2. Professional Service Industries,Inc. 3. GFA International,Inc. 4. Universal Engineering Sciences, Inc 5. Terracon Consultants,Inc. 6: Nutting Engineers of Florida, Inc. 7. Wood Environment&Infrastructure Solutions,Inc. 8, Wingerter Laboratories 9. Tierra South Florida, Inc. Due to the number of responses, a summary of each top-ranked firm or the firm's proposal is • available upon request. • . Page 507 of 1637 • 47 • CONCLUSION I have reviewed the submittals and the results of the evaluation process. I have also considered the needs of the City that include a wide variety of geotechnical services,especially in consideration of potential GO bond projects.All of the nine(9)proposals received are from very well qualified firms. Each one of these firms has its own unique experiences from which the City may benefit depending on the project being considered. This especially important since the purpose of the RFQ is to proactively establish contracts for future services that are not yet identified. For this reason, I • believe it is important to have a wide range of service providers that the City can quickly access to address any project or emergency needs that may arise. For this reason, I believe it is the City's best interest to establish contracts with all the firms so that future needs for services can be quickly addressed. • Therefore, I recommend that the Mayor and City Commission approve the Resolution authorizing the Administration to enter into negotiations with RADISE International, LC,as the top ranked proposer; Professional Service Industries, Inc.,as the second ranked proposer;GFA International, Inc., as the third ranked proposer; Universal Engineering Sciences, Inc,as the fourth ranked proposer;Terracon Consultants, Inc., as the fifth ranked proposer; Nutting Engineers of Florida, Inc. and Wood Environment& Infrastructure Solutions, Inc,as the sixth ranked proposers; Wingerter Laboratories, as the eighth ranked proposer; and Tierra South Florida, Inc. as the ninth ranked proposers; and further authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute agreements with each of the foregoing • proposers upon conclusion of successful negotiations by the Administration. • FINANCIAL INFORMATION The cost of the related services, determined upon successful negotiations, are subject to funds availability approved through the City's budgeting process. Grant funding will not be utilized for this project.

The City requires the services of consulting firms to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services for the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Public Works Departments.

In order to consider a replacement contract, the City is seeking proposals from qualified firm(s) to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services. Geotechnical, soil testing and/or lab testing services are required for proper pre-planning of construction projects for the City. Many of the City's CIP and Public Works projects will require, during one time or another, a geotechnical, soils or lab testing report to validate either the City's Engineer's or any Architect's or Engineer of Records recommendations as to any site, building or any other project's unknown characteristics. Through the issuance of this RFQ the City will be able to adequately plan and incorporate geotechnical and soil testing services as part of the pre-construction preparatory work, which is a phase of every City construction project. In addition, the Geotechnical firm(s) would provide personnel that are qualified, trained and thoroughly familiar with the City's rules, policies, and procedures in inspection, sampling testing, and reporting various areas and stages of construction. The ability to have a list of Geotechnical firms to be contacted on an as needed basis would enable the City to utilize these services when the need arises. It is the intent of the City of Miami Beach to select several firms under this RFQ, which will be contacted on an as needed basis. This contract shall remain in effect for an initial term of five (5) years,with two (2) optional renewal years at the City's discretion.

Bidder (defined as the Firm) shall hold' an asbestos business certification AND a geology business certification from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. C2.Statement of Work Required 2.1 Introduction/Background The City requires the services of consulting firms to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services for the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Public Works Departments. For five (5) years, the City has contracted with several consulting firms to provide these services. The current contract for these services expires on August 18,2018. In order to consider a replacement contract, the City is seeking proposals from qualified firm(s) to perform citywide geotechnical and soil testing services. Geotechnical, soil testing and/or lab testing services are required for proper pre-planning of construction projects for the City. Many of the City's CIP and Public • Works projects will require, during one time or another, a geotechnical, soils or lab testing report to validate either the City's Engineer's or any Architect's or Engineer of Records recommendations as to any site, building or any other project's unknown characteristics. Through the issuance of this RFQ the City will be able to adequately plan and incorporate geotechnical and soil testing services as part of the pre-construction preparatory work, which is a phase of every City construction project. In addition, the Geotechnical firm(s) would provide personnel that are qualified, trained and thoroughly familiar with the City's rules, policies, and procedures in inspection, sampling testing, and reporting various areas and stages of construction.,The ability to have a list of Geotechnical firms to be contacted on an as needed basiswould enable the City to utilize these services when the need arises. It is the intent of the City of Miami Beach to select several firms under this RFQ,which will be contacted on an as needed basis. This contract shall remain in effect for an initial term of five (5) years, with two (2) optional renewal years at the City's discretion. 2.2 Geotechnical Services • The Consultant shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, transportation, and other appurtenant work for performing subsurface explorations, obtaining representative samples, and performing all other geotechnical services. • The Consultant shall comply with all federal, state, and local rules and regulations with regard to permits, bonds,drilling, plugging,and all other applicable aspects of drilling. • The Consultant shall research and review all pertinent existing geologic and geotechnical data and ' information available from USGS, area development, and the company's own files. • The Consultant shall review the proposed project information and requested scope of work indicated as a minimum level of services desired relative to the anticipated subsurface conditions present. If localized subsurface conditions are expected to vary significantly, Consultant shall advise Owner of additional recommended services prior to commencing work. • The Consultant shall be responsible for contacting the appropriate agencies (state/city utility check) RFQ 2018-097-KB 26 MIAMI BEACH for determining locations of utilities in the vicinity of the actual boring locations. • Borings shall be backfilled to the original ground surface in accordance with all applicable local, state,and federal guidelines. • Consultant shall perform the standard penetration test(SPT) in accordance with ASTM Designation D 1586. • In soil that is predominantly cohesive (silty clays, sandy clays, and material with adhesive binder), Consultant shall use the thin-walled tube method-for sampling in accordance with ASTM Designation D 1587. • Rock coring shall be performed in accordance with ASTM Designation D 2113. • Double-ring infiltration test shall be conducted in accordance with ASTM Designation D 5093. • Laboratory tests shall be assigned and performed by the Consultant to classify soils and obtain geotechnical physical characteristics such as strength, compressibility, swell potential, compaction characteristics, and chemical characteristics such as corrosiveness. Perform laboratory testing consistent in quantity and quality with local geotechnical engineering practice to provide the required design parameters and recommendations. The quantity of tests to be performed will be dependent upon the type of soil and/or rock encountered during drilling and sampling with additional consideration of the foundation types that may be required to support the proposed structures. • The Consultant shall prepare a geotechnical engineering report containing a discussion of the proposed construction, final boring logs, boring location plan, a description of the drilling and sampling program, a description of the geology and subsurface conditions encountered, groundwater conditions, laboratory test results, and foundation and earthwork recommendations and design parameters. The following is a list of major items that shall appear in the geotechnical engineering report: • Previous Construction Activity and Existing Fill (If present): A discussion of previous construction activity shall address any existing fills or subsurface openings, if encountered. Outline the engineering properties of any existing fills with regard to foundation design. • Subsurface Conditions: Subsurface conditions encountered at the site shall be discussed, based upon stratigraphic sequence observed and local geology. Figures shall be provided displaying soil borings and generalized cross sections. A general description of the engineering properties or parameters determined from the investigation and applied to design recommendations shall be provided. Prevailing groundwater elevations observed,and those recommended for design shall be noted. • Site Preparation Recommendations: Provide grading and site preparation recommendations taking into'consideration the conceptual grading plan for the site. • Compaction Requirements: The report shall contain detailed and specific criteria for acceptable embankment, fill, or backfill materials and address whether the available borrow material on site is suitable for general or structural fill.The report shall contain recommendations for material usage at the site with regard to placement and compaction requirements as well as any recommended treatment. Compaction criteria, including acceptable gradations, moisture control, compactive effort, and need for proofrolling shall be discussed, including criteria for both granular and cohesive fill, if applicable. Preparation of subgrades for fill and backfill placement shall be discussed. • Foundation Design: The geotechnical engineering report prepared by the Consultant will be used to size and structurally design stable foundations for the structures.To accomplish this task, the report shall contain recommendations in regard to the recommended foundation type for each structure, as RFQ 2018-097-KB 27 MIAMI BEACH loading and site conditions may require. The report shall provide net allowable bearing pressures for shallow spread footings and mats, at recommended bearing depths, considering the types of materials supporting the mats, and note whether any overstressing is allowed under short-term loading such as dynamic, wind, or seismic loading conditions. If over-excavation of unsuitable materials and backfill with structural backfill are required to improve the foundation soils to allow the use of shallow foundations, provide estimated vertical and horizontal extent of the over-excavation and structural backfill. Provide estimated total and differential settlement for foundations using the recommended bearing pressures. Provide an estimate of the time of settlement. Note factors of safety included or recommended. Provide recommendations for resistance to lateral loads, such as passive earth pressures and sliding friction for the base of foundations. Provide recommended groundwater level for determination of buoyancy and means to resist buoyant-forces, if needed. Recommendations for deep foundations shall include diameter, depth, and any recommended installation requirements. Provide allowable design loading capacities for vertical downward loading, vertical upward loading, and horizontal loading,as appropriate to the site conditions. Provide design parameters for analysis of laterally loaded drilled piers as required for input into lateral pile capacity software.All factors of safety utilized in developing the allowable load capacities shall be outlined in detail. • Slope Stability and Excavations: The report shall address the recommended inclination of both temporary excavation and permanent slopes. • Excavation Requirements: If necessary, a section of the report shall address the excavatibility of the soils and rock which may be exposed during foundation excavation and site grading. The effort and type of equipment utilized to perform excavations is dependent upon the size and depth of the excavation. Thus, the discussion shall be in regard to area-type excavations and confined excavations, such as utility trenches. • Dewaterinq: Conditions present at the site requiring groundwater control, dewatering, or surface drainage during excavation for mats, footings, and other construction shall be discussed. Anticipated types of dewatering shall be described. Special consideration to exposed sub-soils within the bottom of excavations during construction shall be addressed. • Corrosion Potential and Chemical Attack to Concrete: An evaluation of representative subsurface materials shall be performed to provide laboratory test results for chemical constituents, specifically pH, chloride ion, soluble sulfates, and sulfides as well as electrical resistivity.These parameters are required to evaluate the potential for corrosion to underground piping and grounding, and selection of cement type to resist potential sulfate attack. • Pavements and Roadway: Provide typical pavement thickness suggestions in accordance with Miami Dade County and FDOT specifications. Any other items of consideration as deemed necessary by the geotechnical company. The geotechnical engineering report shall be prepared by or under the direction of a Registered Professional Engineer registered under the regulatory laws of the State of Florida.

Our commitment to responsiveness, efficiency,quality, and budget guides each aspect of our approach. Most TSF's daily activities are task-order based and, therefore,our firm is structured for responsiveness and capacity. Mr. Kumar Vedula, P.E.,will serve as the Project Manager on this contract. He will be your single point of contact for all services. This project approach ensures that the City representatives know whom to contact for their needs, and it will also ensure that those needs are met in a timely manner.

Our project team personnel consist of senior-level staff members whose strength lies in their ability to provide a genuine insight and hands-on experience into the inner workings and site-specific concerns of the projects on which we work. All project team personnel will report directly to Mr.Vedula and Mr.Krishnasamy. Throughout our experience with other continuing contracts, we have successfully utilized a project approach which we propose for this contract. Each project will have different milestones and deliverables. However, these items will be discussed and timetables set at the initial scope meeting. Our representatives will meet those due dates and deadlines. Our proposed project approaches for geotechnical engineering and construction materials testing services are listed below: Geotechnical Project Approach ✓ Task Order ✓ Review Site Plan with City / USGS Map I USC Soil Survey I Aerial '„:111 Photos 4 "!.;� Identify possible unsuitable soils, illegal dumping, and other .�, potential areas of concern/interest. - ' ✓ Site Visit/Reconnaissance • "i, Determine site accessibility, if site clearing is necessary, presence of overhead power lines for vertical clearance, and MOT needs • ✓ Submit Proposal Based on Scope of Services ✓ Upon approval i 4 Inform Project Manager—Work Schedule =, Utility Clearance/Meet Maintenance/GPR ✓ Inform Project Manager Work Schedule ✓ Issue preliminary findings ✓ Prepare report-includes Soil Management Plan Review by Senior Author QA/QC ✓ Issue Final Report with Invoice Construction Material Testing Project Approach TSF works with contractors daily to complete as-needed services. Our approach centers on our philosophy to protect your interests, and it ensures that all work performed flows smoothly throughout the duration of the project. We believe that maintaining clear communication provides efficient and responsive service, which then leads to projects consistently being completed on time and within budget. At the beginning of each testing project, TSF schedules a preconstruction meeting with the contractor to introduce our personnel assigned to the project. TSF also addresses the scope of work, scheduling, cost saving strategies, and our standard 24-hour response times. For each task order, Contractors call our office to schedule work to be performed. We ask for 24 hours' notice; however,TSF makes every effort to accommodate last minute requests as well. All work is performed as discussed in the preconstruction meeting. TSF has utilized this approach in our interactions with Contractors over the past ten years. Our approach has resulted in projects being consistently completed on time and within budget. It has also created excellent working relationships with many local contractors. Below please find our Construction Materials Testing Project Approach: ✓ Request for services with issue of Purchase Order ✓ Pre-Construction Meeting 71 Ilitmerra City of Miami Beach RFQ Number:2018-097-KB SOUTH FLORIDA Review scope, schedule, and report distribution / Testing requested by Owner/Contractor ✓ Work Order issued to Field Technician Arrive on site,sign in(if required) Perform task, sign out(if required) I Prepare report and review QA/QC Smartphone reporting system(CSS) Immediate results notification ✓ Invoice monthly, backup reports provided (if required) This system has proven successful as it ensures promptness, satisfaction and steady communication between the client and our staff. At each step of the way our staff keeps in mind the client's complete satisfaction, cost savings to the client, and timeliness. CONSTRUCTION SERVICES SYSTEM(CSS) TSF utilizes a smartphone reporting system called Construction Services System (CSS). With this system,TSF's field technicians create an electronic draft report on site which is immediately transmitted to TSF's Project Manager as well as Owner representatives for same day reporting. • All draft reports will then be checked by the TSF Project Manager and QA/QC officer. Following �" " QA/QC, the reports for the specific project are billed daily and mailed or emailed weekly to all ININIMMINIMM specified parties. Some benefits of CSS include: - ✓ Same day reporting : - - ✓ Immediate results from the field I Faster failed results notification ✓ Improved efficiency I Reduced errors I Incorporates our commitment to sustainability Fast Track/Expedited Projects TSF's standard response time for most common testing activities is 24 hours with notice via email, fax or phone call. These testing activities include but are not limited to: Proctor tests, field density tests (soil and asphalt), LBR tests, soil conductivity/resistivity tests,organic content tests,concrete cylinders, grout prisms/mortar cubes,concrete coring, and asphalt coring. Specific tasks may require additional preparation time prior to mobilizing to the site. If needed, TSF can respond to last minute/same day requests within 2 hours of contacting our office. We have technicians on job sites throughout Miami- Dade County who can respond to same day testing needs. Please note that should a Contractor forget to schedule testing,TSF provides the following solutions to minimize the impact on the project schedule: • Concrete:TSF performs concrete cores or non-destructive testing,such as Windsor probe testing. • Density:TSF tests by(1)potholing or(2)excavating and retesting.

In addition, our standard response time for the most common testing activities is 24 hours, provided at least 24 hours'notice is given by fax, email, or phone. Specific tasks may require additional preparation time prior to mobilizing to the site. If needed,TSF can respond to last minute/same day requests within 4 hours of contacting our office. We have the resources necessary to ensure that key personnel are readily available to devote a significant portion of their time fulfilling this contract. TSF's team members will be available and responsive to the needs of the City of North Miami throughout the duration of the contract. COMMITMENT TO BUDGET AND COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS TSF is committed to approaching each project from a cost savings perspective without sacrificing quality or sound design. Below please find a listing of projects where TSF utilized innovative and cost saving approaches in the past: 3R Improvement Project for SR. A1A from North Sheridan Street to SR5/US1, Broward County, Florida: This project was for a length of two miles and located near the Intracoastal Waterway in the urban area. Due to the presence of organic soils to a depth of about twelve feet below grade, the existing pavement was severely stressed. Removal of the unsuitable organic soil and replacement with suitable fill material to improve the roadway would have involved construction of temporary sheetpile cofferdam, dewatering in excavation and disposal of temporary organic soils. TSF performed a geotechnical investigation and evaluation for the roadway construction. As an alternative, we proposed an innovative approach, instead of removal and replacement, stabilization of organic soil with geofabric was proposed. Estimated cost saving was about $4 million. The construction time was reduced by six months and noise/vibration issues associated with the sheetpile installation were also reduced. Port Everglades Shipping Crane, Broward County, Florida: TSF was requested to evaluate the possibility of shipping a large crane to the Bahamas. The problem was the existing gas line along the port to ship. It was costing the port$20,000 per day to delay shipment.We promptly evaluated the existing subsurface condition and provided recommendations for a portable 73 e rra Pit . ' City of Miami Beach RFQ Number:2018-097-KB SOUTH FLORIDA structure to travel over the gas line without damage. The crane was shipped successfully without causing any delay and cost to the port. Cost savings of$20,000 per day. Florida International University Stadium Field House, Miami, Florida: FIU anticipated using a pile foundation system for the field house additions; however, TSF evaluated the use of a shallow foundation with a higher bearing capacity (6,000psf). We determined that a shallow foundation with 6,000psf could be achieved provided the footing be founded in the natural limestone.TSF provided both time and cost savings to the university with this approach. Palm Beach County Operations Center,West Palm Beach, Florida: Due to a loose soil condition, a pile foundation system was initially proposed by an engineering firm to support the new six-story Palm Beach County Operations Center. During the peer review performed by our professional staff, we proposed to support the building on shallow foundation with deep soil compaction using vibro-probes. This approach eliminated the need to install approximately 500 augercast piles, resulting in a savings of about $2 million and a signification reduction in construction time. It also abolished the need to import associated construction materials(steel and cement). Improvement of SW 14th Street between SW MLK Boulevard and SW Ave. G, Belle Glade, Florida: This roadway and drainage improvement project was for a length of approximately one mile in Belle Glade, Florida. Organic soils were encountered to a depth of 8 to 10 feet below grade. As an alternate to removal and replacement of the existing organic soils, we proposed to stabilize the roadway with geofabric reinforcement. Estimated cost savings with this alternative was estimated to be about$1.5 million. Yacht Club, Panama City, Republic of Panama: TSF performed geotechnical engineering services for the project which consisted of a 67-story tower on Balboa Avenue in Panama. The initial design called for drilled shafts with a deep socket in rock. The review indicated that the same capacity could be obtained from shorter sockets in rock (i.e. shorter drilled shaft length). Recommended and implemented a load test program using Osterberg cell (0-cell) to investigate the load carrying capacity of the drilled shaft socketed in rock. Two 0-cell tests were performed on 36-inch diameter drilled shafts drilled to a depth of 43 feet and 40 feet. Based on evaluation of the load test results, TSF recommended shorter drilled shafts for the same capacity. As a result, savings of about one million dollars were realized in foundation costs. Services included: recommending and planning the load test, location of the 0-cells, inspection of the test shafts and load test, interpretation of test results,and providing recommendation. Turnpike Widening from Osceola Parkway to Orlando South Interchange, Osceola and Orange Counties, Florida: Performed a geotechnical engineering study for the roadway widening of Turnpike mainline from Osceola Parkway to Orlando South Interchange and bridge widening on the Turnpike mainline at two locations (over Sunrail railroads and over CSX railroad/Central Florida Parkway), and cross road bridge reconstructions at 3 locations. This project also includes retaining walls associated to the bridges, sound walls, box culvert extension, and other miscellaneous structures. Field work included 600+ auger borings, 300+ Standard Penetration Test(SPT) borings, 30+ Double Ring Infiltration Tests (DRIT), and collection of fifteen (15) bulk soil samples from the project site (delivered to FDOT State Materials Office in Gainesville to perform Resilient Modulus(MR)tests). After a period of shelving,this project began a full design phase in May 2015. In addition to the previous scope, the project expanded to incorporate express lanes along Turnpike mainline. Additionally, the remaining three ramps (includes 2 flyover bridges) at SR 417 and Turnpike full interchange is included in this full design. The first 2 ramps of the interchange were constructed by then called Orlando Orange County Expressway Authority(OOCEA). The seasonal high groundwater table provided by OOCEA's consultants appeared to be too high. Based on their input, the existing Turnpike mainline roadway would have to be elevated by 2 to 3 feet to provide enough clearance between seasonal high-water table and the roadway base course. We conducted a special field exploration to further evaluate the seasonal high groundwater table in the area. The seasonal high groundwater water table we provided was lower and much more reflective of the current groundwater characteristics in the interchange areas.As a result,the existing Turnpike mainline roadway profile could stay as is and did not need to be raised. Our groundwater recommendations eliminated the concerns of potential seasonal high groundwater table impact on the existing roadway and saved Florida's Turnpike Enterprise significant costs and construction time. SR-710 Big John Monahan Bridge Replacement, Martin County, Florida: This bridge replacement requires large 24-inch concrete driven pile footings in the St. Lucie Canal. Due to refusal pile driving conditions some of the piles were terminated 74 opt . erra ' City of Miami Beach RFQ Number:2018-097-KB SOUTH FLORIDA slightly above the required minimum tip. Instrumented set-checks showed that these piles have sufficient axial capacity. TSF coordinated with the structural engineer to re-analyze the footings for as-built pile tip elevations. The results showed a negligible difference with respect to original design and foundation certifications were submitted. Some of the left bridge footings (Phase 2 construction) required one corner pile to be battered to install all piles in one phase before demolition of existing bridge. TSF coordinated with the structural engineer to re-analyze these footings with as-built batter piles. The results showed a negligible difference with respect to original design loads. Wave Equation analysis was performed to verify the required blow counts for battered condition. This expedited completion of the footings ahead of schedule. Additionally, TSF performs a site reconnaissance and reviews existing foundation/soils data at the beginning of each job to minimize unforeseen circumstances/issues which may impact the design and overall project budget. Below please find an example of one of these circumstances: Unknown Bridge Foundation: When an existing bridge has an unknown foundation (including type, length, and pile capacity of I existing piles), upfront evaluation and exploration is often necessary. This information provides the design team with "` critical information. For instance, for a bridge replacement, this 1 ii i I III; i' information determines how close the new bridge can be built without encountering any problems or effecting the existing i"` bridge (which is especially necessary when the existing bridge V " -- ' is continuing to be used during construction). TSF's past Unknown Foundation Study experience includes: Design Build 11 • Rehabilitation of West Bridge and Bear Cut Bridge on Rickenbacker Causeway, Miami-Dade County, FL; SR 111 , _ 80/Southern Boulevard Bascule Bridge, Palm Beach County, FL; Andrews Avenue over C-13 Canal Bridge, NE 23 Avenue E ' 4 l �. \ over Rio Giraldo Canal, NE 26th Terrace over Rio De Sota, I •' + °t Laguna Terrace over Diane River,West Lake Drive over Estelle �.`` River, West Lake Drive over Diane River,West Lake Drive over l Lucille River, Johnson Street over C-10 Canal, and Kings Highway over Belcher Canal, Broward County, FL. Design-Build Rehabilitation of West Bridge and Bear Cut Bridge on Rickenbacker Causeway, Miami-Dade County,FL INTERACTION WITH REGULATORY AGENCIES We have an excellent working relationship with the Florida Department of Transportation as well as the South Florida Water Management District. When working within right of way of these agencies, Tierra South Florida will submit an application for request of work permit and obtain the proper authorization prior to proceeding with work. TSF will then follow up with a meeting to explain the scope in detail,and notify the agency at completion.
