SUBJECT: Geotechnical Exploration Proposal
Meigs Drive Pavement
Shalimar, Florida
Dear Mr. Jenkins:
Larry M. Jacobs & Associates, Inc. (LMJ) sincerely appreciates the opportunity to submit the following
proposal for providing a geotechnical exploration for the subject project. The purpose of the exploration is
to determine the subsurface conditions in the pavement area and use this information to provide
recommendations for earthwork and pavement design. The following sections outline our recommended
scope of services, a cost estimate for providing these services, and the proposed terms and conditions.
PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION
The project site is located on Meigs Drive where it crosses Lake Vivian in Shalimar, Florida. Reportedly,
the project consists of the replacement of roughly 500 feet of Meigs Drive, as well as raising the grade of
that length of the road about two feet. We understand that the project includes the construction of a new
culvert with headwalls. Reportedly, the roadway is known to flood. If any of this information is incorrect,
please let us know as it may require changes to our scope.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES
The following proposed scope of services is based on the information supplied and our experience in the
area with similar projects. We propose to perform the following:
▼ Locate the borings at the site with a hand held GPS unit.
▼ Clear registered utilities at the site with the Sunshine Network. Non-registered or private utilities are
the responsibility of the client to clear.
▼ Mobilize a truck mounted and tripod mounted drill rig(s) and drill team to the site.
▼ Use proper MOT to close one lane of Meigs Drive to allow drilling operations, and we have
included prices for sign rental and two flagmen. If the county or city will provide flagmen, we can
forgo that fee. Drilling operations are expected to take roughly 1-1.5 days.
▼ Core the asphalt pavement at two locations (4 inch diameter) in order to obtain accurate
information on existing pavement thickness.
▼ Patch core holes after completion of drilling operations.
▼ Drill 2 Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings to a depth of 15 feet in the new roadway at the
core locations. Since grades are being raised about two feet, these borings are being drilled
deeper than normal roadway borings to check for the presence of compressible peat or clay.
▼ Drill 2 SPT borings at the culvert headwall locations to a depth of 25 feet, and these borings will be
drilled with our portable tripod mounted drill rig since access is difficult and narrow.

Geotechnical Exploration Proposal
Meigs Drive Pavement
January 4, 2016
▼ Perform a visual classification and laboratory testing of the soil samples obtained during our
exploration. Our proposal includes a small budget for basic properties testing like natural moisture
content, Atterberg limits and sieve analysis to evaluate and document basic soil properties.
▼ Analyze the test data to develop geotechnical engineering recommendations for the project.
A professional geotechnical engineer licensed in the state of Florida will manage the project, and the
results of the exploration will be presented in a report that will address the following:
▼ Existing site characteristics.
▼ Explorati
