115 Deerbrush Dr, Spring Creek, Nevada 98915 *******@*****.*** Sample California Project Experience

Laurel Canyon Boulevard Bridge Widening, City of Los Angeles, CA– John served as the Project Manager for this widening project consisting of adding one lane and an 8-ft sidewalk in each direction. The bridge widening used the same configuration as the existing structure, a single span, cast-in-place, reinforced box girder founded on integral abutments that form a portion of the channel flood wall protection system. Additionally, a small part of the existing floodwall was removed and reconstructed to make a watertight connection. The new retaining wall sections were designed using three different codes to meet the standard of three agencies; the City of Los Angeles required LRFD, the County of Los Angeles Flood Control District required LFD, and the Army Corp of Engineers required working stress design. A portion of the approach sidewalk interfered with Metropolitan Water District’s (MWD) existing blow off structure and manual access point and required the design of retaining walls and a 17-foot simple span with an integrated steel plate and concrete sidewalk over the blow off structure.

Lindero Canyon Bridge Over HWY 101 Widening City of Westlake, CA – John served as the Lead Bridge Engineer for this project consisting of widening Lindero Canyon Road from two lanes to three lanes in each direction. Portions of the roadway curb and gutter and raised median along Lindero Canyon Road were reconstructed (including modifications to the bridge overcrossing HWY 101) to reconfigure the roadway section that eliminates the sidewalk on the north side of the bridge and provide a combination bike path/sidewalk on the south side of the bridge. As part of the bridge modification, the deck overhangs were removed and reconstructed, which damaged portions of the existing deck that then needed to be repaired. John recommended that the deck repairs be in accordance with Caltrans requirements. The deck repairs consisted of preparing the deck surface using an abrasive blast cleaning method, then applying a low order methacrylate bond coat and a Polyester Mortar epoxy based concrete. Walker and Wilson Creek Bridge Replacement Projects, County of Glenn, CA – John served as the Manager for these two Glenn County low-water crossing bridge replacement projects, and is currently awaiting right-of-way to finish developing the PS&E package for both structures. His design is a cast-in-place reinforced concrete multi-span slab, supported by pile extensions for each structure. The project consisted of preparing documentation and concepts that met Caltrans’ Local Program guidelines and were also functional for the site’s geometric, local needs, and floodplain’s hydraulic requirements. Located near private infrastructure these sites had stringent demand on FEMA’s no rise certification. The design made an effort to minimize the structure’s cross section while still providing openings large enough to pass the 100-yr flows. Indian Gulch Bridge County of Mariposa CA – John served as the Project Manager for the replacement of a two (2) span standard reinforced concrete cast-in-place slab bridge supported on a pier at the center. The replacement bridge will be divided into 42-ft spans on each side of the center pier with a width of 27-ft, which can accommodate two lanes of traffic comfortably. This bridge type is designed to carry legal loads and require minimal maintenance. A pier supported structure would be stable and accommodate the multistep stage construction. This type of structure can be readily constructed with minimal falsework and temporary footings. This alternative needed to be constructed in the two stages to maximize the traffic use across the bridge. The cast-in-place concrete slab alternative will replace the existing bridge while maintaining the current profile grade providing a hydraulically similar bridge. Additionally, this alternative will not require additional permanent right- of-way to construct and minimizes impact to surrounding farm lands. County of Mariposa Bridge Preventative Maintenance Plan (BPMP), CA – John served as the Project Engineer / Project Manager to identify work that would meet the requirements of the Caltrans “Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program Guidelines for Local Agencies”. This project included prioritizing the bridge maintenance needs that are eligible for BPMP funding and providing General Plan cost estimates for each recommendation in the BPMP. As a result of the work done by John, Mariposa County submitted a request to Caltrans to program Federal funds to accomplish this preventative maintenance work. Caltrans has since programmed a total of $782,000 for Preliminary Engineering and $2,090,000 for Construction. Expenditures under this program are reimbursable at 88.53%. South Branch Pleasant Grove Creek Bridge (Left), City of Roseville, CA – John was the Project Engineer responsible for the PS&E services for this 120-foot-long, three-span, concrete slab bridge supported on two rows of pile extensions. This bridge was designed to complete street improvements for the offsite development in preparation for a local residential development project. Other non-standard factors that were addressed as part of this project were Soffit lighting, rock slope protection

(ultra light), and 8’-8” sidewalk and barrier.
