Terracon Consultants Inc. Proposal No. P95201133
Dear Mr. Meza,
Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide construction
materials testing, observation services, or special inspection services for the above referenced
project as required. We are presenting this proposal to confirm our understanding of the services
to be performed for this project, to obtain written authorization to provide these services, and to
present the estimated fee to provide these services. The following sections outline our
understanding of the project and provide a description of the tasks to be performed. We
understand we have been selected to provide these services based solely on our
qualifications.
A) PROJECT INFORMATION (Exhibit A)
The project involves the construction of a new office building, renovations to the existing shop
building, and new pavements located at 6260 Old Hemphill Road in Fort Worth, Texas. The new
1,050 square foot building will have a monolithic 5"slab with grade beams. The building subgrade
will be excavated a minimum of 9.5 feet below finished grade and the native soils will be removed.
The native soils will then be moisture conditioned and compacted up to one foot below final grade.
A one foot select fill cap will placed on the moisture conditioned soils. The building will have metal
stud bearing walls with a metal truss roofing system. The major renovation to the existing shop
building includes a new CMU wall enclosure around the west area of the building.
We understand alternative number one has been accepted in addition to the base bid. The new
office building will have a 6-inch concrete sidewalk pavement surrounding it. The north parking
lots and other heavy-duty concrete pavements will be 7-inches of concrete over 6-inches of
flexible base. The equipment yard will be 6-inches of concrete over 6-inches of flexible base.
There is a retaining wall and associated paving near the new Goodwill trailers.

Old Hemphill Drop-Off Station Irerracon
6260 Old Hemphill Street, Fort Worth,Texas
June 4,2020 Terracon Proposal No. P95201133
Terracon was provided with the following construction documents for preparation of this
proposal:
• Civil Drawings by Carrillo Engineering dated 3/30/2018
• Structural Drawings by R. L. Woods &Associates dated 7/11/2018
• Geotechnical Report by CMJ Engineering dated 12/15/2017
B) SCOPE OF SERVICES (Exhibit B)
Based on our review and understanding of the documents listed above, Terracon proposes the
following scope of services:
Earthwork Observations and Testing:
1. Sample materials to be used as building fills, utility trench backfill, wall backfill,
general fill, pavement base and pavement subgrades. Prepare and test the
samples for Atterberg Limits (ASTM D4318), Minus #200 Sieve (ASTM D1140),
Sieve Analysis of Base (ASTM C136) and moisture-density relationship (ASTM
D698).
2. Observe proofrolling operations of the building pad and paving subgrades; and
perform density tests of the building fills, utility trench backfill, wall backfill, general
fill, and pavement subgrades using the nuclear method (ASTM D6938) to
determine the moisture content and percent compaction of the soil materials.
Cast-in-Place Concrete Observations and Testing:
1. Sample and test the fresh concrete for each mix. Perform tests for slump, air
content, ambient and concrete temperatures, and unit weight; and cast test
specimens (ASTM C172, C31, C143, C231, C1064, C138). Terracon
understands that the contractor will be responsible for maintaininq the initial
field curing temperature of the concrete test specimens.
2. We have assumed the concrete will be sampled at a frequency of one set of five
test cylinders every 100 cubic yards or fraction thereof per mix per day for all
structural concrete. Terracon requests that a copy of the approved mix
design(s) be provided to us prior to placement of the concrete.
3. Perform compressive strength tests of concrete test cylinders cast in the field
(ASTM C31, C39). Five 4" x 8" concrete cylinders will be prepared for structural
concrete having nominal maximum size aggregate of 1 inch or less. One cylinder
will be tested at 7 days, three cylinders will be tested at 28 days, and one cylinder
will be tested at 56 days or at an age requested by others. Four 6" x 12" concrete
cylinders per set will be prepared for concrete having a nominal maximum size
aggregate of greater than 1 inch. When 6" x 12" cylinders are prepared, one
cylinder will be tested at 7 days, two cylinders will be tested at 28 days and one
cylinder will be tested at 56 days or at an age requested by others.

F) SITE ACCESS AND SAFETY
Client shall secure all necessary site related approvals, permits, licenses, and consents
necessary to commence and complete the services and will execute any necessary site access
agreement. Terracon will be responsible for supervision and site safety measures for its own
employees, but shall not be responsible for the supervision or health and safety precautions for
any third parties, including Client's contractors, subcontractors, or other parties present at the
site. In addition, Consultant retains the right to stop work without penalty at any time Consultant
believes it is in the best interest of Consultant's employees or subcontractors to do so in order to
reduce the risk of exposure to the coronavirus. Client agrees it will respond quickly to all requests
for information made by Consultant related to Consultant's pre-task planning and risk assessment

procedures indicate conditions only at the depths, locations, and times the procedures were
performed. Terracon will provide test results and opinions based on tests and field observations
only for the work tested. Client understands that testing and observation are not continuous or
exhaustive, and are conducted to reduce — not eliminate - project risk. Client agrees to the level
or amount of testing performed and the associated risk. Client is responsible (even if delegated
to contractor) for notifying and scheduling Terracon so Terracon can perform these services.
Terracon shall not be responsible for the quality and completeness of Client's contractor's work
or their adherence to the project documents, and Terracon's performance of testing and
observation services shall not relieve contractor in any way from its responsibility for defects
discovered in its work, or create a warranty or guarantee. Terracon will not supervise or direct the
work performed by contractor or its subcontractors and is not responsible for their means and
methods.
