Re: Proposal for Geotechnical Services
Proposed Pedestrian Bridge
Key Largo, Florida
TSF Proposal No.: 1111-386
Dear Oscar:
As requested, TIERRA SOUTH FLORIDA, INC. (TSF) is pleased to submit this proposal for the
above -referenced project. This proposal includes an outline of our proposed scope of work, an
estimate of the total fees, and our anticipated schedule for completion of the work.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
We understand that geotechnical investigation is required to explore the subsurface conditions at the
proposed pedestrian bridge. We understand that the proposed pedestrian bridge will be 120' long
and 14' wide simple span bridge.
To explore the subsurface conditions, we proposed to drill two (2) SPT borings to a depth of 60 feet
below existing grade.
Boring locations will be approximately located and noted in the held byour personnel by measuring
distances with a tape from known reference points. Elevations at boring locations can be interpreted
from topographic plans if furnished by others. Prior to drilling at the project site, TSF will notify the
local utility companies and request that underground utilities be marked. Our experience, however,
is that the utility companies will not mark privately owned utilities. Private owned utility need to be
identified by others. The study will be summarized in accordance with the FDOT's Soil and
Foundation Manual.
