Large Project Experience
I-215 Widening, Murrieta, California
Provide geotechnical laboratory testing services for the I-215 Freeway expansion. The function of testing was to evaluate strength and consolidation parameters of bridge foundation materials.
State Route 91 Geotechnical design, Riverside County, California
Responsibilities include laboratory testing and design the retaining walls. Designed the foundations performed bearing capacity; settlement and slope stability calculations for propose walls in the design/build phase of the project.
State Route 39 and State Route 2 Rockfall Hazard Study, Los Angeles County, California
Responsible for collecting data to estimate the severity of the pavement damage due to the rockfall which was responsible for the closure of state route 39 and assisted preparation of the report for the recommendations for the damage repair.
Templin Highway Landslide Stabilization, Los Angeles County, California
Provided slope inclinometer and flow control support during construction of stabilization of the landslide. Geotechnical analysis was performed based on the geologic conditions observed during excavations and to evaluate the validity of the design.
State Route 22 Geotechnical Investigation and Design, Orange County, California
Responsibilities include geotechnical field investigations for a major exploration program involving pile driving, borehole sampling, and laboratory testing. Designed the foundations for the proposed bridge widening and replacements and evaluated the capacities of the existing bridges and performed settlement and slope stability calculations for proposed bridges and walls in the design/build phase of the project.
