C. Contingency Allowance: Contractor agrees that a contingency allowance, if any, is for the sole use of City. D. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued to reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly adjusted. 11.03 Unit Price Work A. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the sum of the unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement. B. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of the actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by City subject to the provisions of Paragraph 9.05. C. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to cover Contractor’s overhead and profit for each separately identified item. Work described in the Contract Documents, or reasonably inferred as required for a functionally complete installation, but not identified in the listing of unit price items shall be considered incidental to unit price work listed and the cost of incidental work included as part of the unit price. D. City may make an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with Paragraph 12.01 if: 1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Agreement; and 2. there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work. E. Increased or Decreased Quantities: The City reserves the right to order Extra Work in accordance with Paragraph 10.01. 1. If the changes in quantities or the alterations do not significantly change the character of work under the Contract Documents, the altered work will be paid for at the Contract unit price. 00 72 00 - 1 GENERAL CONDITIONS Page 53 of 63 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised: 3/08/2024 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 2. If the changes in quantities or alterations significantly change the character of work, the Contract will be amended by a Change Order. 3. If no unit prices exist, this will be considered Extra Work and the Contract will be amended by a Change Order in accordance with Article 12. 4. A significant change in the character of work occurs when: a. the character of work for any Item as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that in the Contract or b. a Major Item of work varies by more than 25% from the original Contract quantity. 5. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is more than 125% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request an adjustment to the unit price on the portion of the work that is above 125%. 6. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is less than 75% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request an adjustment to the unit price. 11.04 Plans Quantity Measurement A. Plans quantities may or may not represent the exact quantity of work performed or material moved, handled, or placed during the execution of the Contract. The estimated bid quantities are designated as final payment quantities, unless revised by the governing Section or this Article. B. If the quantity measured as outlined under “Price and Payment Procedures” varies by more than 25% (or as stipulated under “Price and Payment Procedures” for specific Items) from the total estimated quantity for an individual Item originally shown in the Contract Documents, an adjustment may be made to the quantity of authorized work done for payment purposes. The party to the Contract requesting the adjustment will provide field measurements and calculations showing the final quantity for which payment will be made. Payment for revised quantity will be made at the unit price bid for that Item, except as provided for in Article 10. C. When quantities ar e revised by a change in design approved by the City, by Change Order, or to correct an error, or to correct an error on the plans, the plans quantity will be increased or decreased by the amount involved in the change, and the 25% variance will apply to the new plans quantity. D. If the total Contract quantity multiplied by the unit price bid for an individual Item is less than $250 and the Item is not originally a plans quantity Item, then the Item may be paid as a plans quantity Item if the City and Contractor agree in writing to fix the final quantity as a plans quantity. 00 72 00 - 1 GENERAL CONDITIONS Page 54 of 63 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised: 3/08/2024 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 E.

The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order. B. No extension of the Contract Time will be allowed for Extra Work or for claimed delay unless the Extra Wor k contemplated or claimed delay is shown to be on the critical path of the Project Schedule or Contractor can show by Critical Path Method analysis how the Extra Work or claimed delay adversely affects the critical path. 12.03 Delays A. Where Contractor is reasonably delayed in the performance or completion of any part of the Work within the Contract Time due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Time may be extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a Contract Claim is made therefor. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts or neglect by City, acts or neglect of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, or acts of God. Such an adjustment shall be Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedy for the delays described in this Paragraph. B. If Contractor is delayed, City shall not be liable to Contractor for any claims, costs, losses, or damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by Contractor on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project. C. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Time for delays within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor. D.

Review of Applications: 1. City will, after receipt of each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a recommendation of payment or return the Application to Contractor indicating reasons for refusing payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. 2. City’s processing of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will be based on City’s observations of the executed Work, and on City’s review of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of City’s knowledge: a. the Wor k has progressed to the point indicated; b. the quality of the Work is generally in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Final Acceptance, the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, a final determination of quantities and classifications for Work performed under Paragraph 9.05, and any other qualifications stated in the recommendation). 3. Processing any such payment will not thereby be deemed to have represented that: a. inspections made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work as it has been performed have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to City in the Contract Documents; or b. there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor to be paid additionally by City or entitle City to withhold payment to Contractor; or c.

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events by way of example, but not of limitation, may justify termination for cause: 1. Contractor’s persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule established under Paragraph 2.07 as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04, or failure to adhere to the City’s Business Diversity Enterprise Ordinance #20020-12-2011established under Paragraph 6.06.D); 2.

If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order, provided that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. 4.

D. Where Contractor’s services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability. E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this Article. 00 72 00 - 1 GENERAL CONDITIONS Page 73 of 63 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised: 3/08/2024 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 15.03 City May Terminate For Convenience A.

Construction Schedule 21 The Contractor is responsible for developing and maintaining a schedule for the 22 scope of the Contractor’s contractual requirements. The Contractor will issue an 23 initial schedule for review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist 24 and the City’s Project Manager as a baseline schedule for Contractor’s scope of 25 work. Contractor will issue current, accurate updates of their schedule (Progress 26 Schedule) to the City at the end of each month throughout the life of their work. 27 B. Schedule Tiers 28 The City has a portfolio of projects that vary widely in size, complexity and content 29 requiring different scheduling to effectively deliver each project. The City uses a 30 “tiered” approach to align the proper schedule with the criteria for each project. The 31 City's Project Manager determines the appropriate schedule tier for each project, and 32 includes that designation and the associated requirements in the Contractor’s scope of 33 work. The following is a summary of the “tiers”. 34 35 1. Tier 1: Small Size and Short Duration Project (design not required) 36 The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. No 37 schedule submittal is required from Contractor. City’s Project Control Specialist 38 acquires any necessary schedule status data or information through discussions with 39 the respective party on an as-needed basis. 40 41 2. Tier 2: Small Size and Short to Medium Duration Project 42 The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The 43 Contractor identifies “start” and “finish” milestone dates on key elements of their 44 work as agreed with the City’s Project Manager at the kickoff of their work effort. 45 The Contractor issues to the City, updates to the “start” and “finish” dates for such 46 milestones at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on the project. 47 48 3. Tier 3: Medium and Large Size and/or Complex Projects Regardless of Duration 49 01 32 16 - 3 CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS SCHEDULE Page 3 of 10 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised October 6, 2023 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 4. The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The 1 Contractor develops a Baseline Schedule and maintains the schedule of their 2 respective scope of work on the project at a level of detail (generally Level 3) and 3 in alignment with the WBS structure in Section 1.4.H as agreed by the Project 4 Manager. The Contractor issues to the City, updates of their respective schedule 5 (Progress Schedule) at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on 6 the project. 7 C. Schedule Types 8 Project delivery for the City utilizes two types of schedules as noted below. The City 9 develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule as a “baseline” schedule and issue 10 monthly updates to the City Project Manager (end of each month) as a “progress” 11 schedule. The Contractor prepares and submits each schedule type to fulfill their 12 contractual requirements. 13 14 1. Baseline Schedule 15 The Contractor develops and submits to the City, an initial schedule for their scope 16 of work in alignment with this specification. Once reviewed and accepted by the 17 City, it becomes the “Baseline” schedule and is the basis against which all progress 18 is measured. The baseline schedule will be updated when there is a change or 19 addition to the scope of work impacting the duration of the work, and only after 20 receipt of a duly authorized change order issued by the City. In the event progress 21 is significantly behind schedule, the City’s Project Manager may authorize an 22 update to the baseline schedule to facilitate a more practical evaluation of progress. 23 An example of a Baseline Schedule is provided in Specification 01 32 16.1 24 Construction Project Schedule Baseline Example. 25 26 2. Progress Schedule 27 The Contractor updates their schedule at the end of each month to represent the 28 progress achieved in the work which includes any impact from authorized changes 29 in the work. The updated schedule must accurately reflect the current status of the 30 work at that point in time and is referred to as the “Progress Schedule”. The City’s 31 Project Manager and Project Control Specialist reviews and accepts each progress 32 schedule. In the event a progress schedule is deemed not acceptable, the 33 unacceptable issues are identified by the City within 5 working days and the 34 Contractor must provide an acceptable progress schedule within 5 working days 35 after receipt of non-acceptance notification. An example of a Progress Schedule is 36 provided in Specification 01 32 16.2 Construction Project Schedule Progress 37 Example. 38 D. City Standard Schedule Requirements 39 The following is an overview of the methodology for developing and maintaining a 40 schedule for delivery of a project. 41 01 32 16 - 4 CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS SCHEDULE Page 4 of 10 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised October 6, 2023 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 1. Schedule Framework - The schedule will be based on the defined scope of work 1 and follow the (Critical Path Methodology) CPM method. The Contractor’s 2 schedule will align with the requirements of this specification and will be cost 3 loaded to reflect their plan for execution. Compliance with cost loading can be 4 provided with traditional cost loading of line items OR a projected cost per 5 month for the project when the initial schedule is submitted, updated on a 6 quarterly basis is significant change is anticipated. Overall schedule duration 7 will align with the contractual requirements for the respective scope of work and be 8 reflected in City’s Master Project Schedule. The Project Number and Name of the 9 Project is required on each schedule and must match the City’s project data. 10 11 E. Schedule File Name 12 All schedules submitted to the City for a project will have a file name that begins with 13 the City’s project number followed by the name of the project followed by baseline (if 14 a baseline schedule) or the year and month (if a progress schedule), as shown below. 15 16 • Baseline Schedule File Name 17 Format: City Project Number_Project Name_Baseline 18 Example: 101376_North Montgomery Street HMAC_Baseline 19 20 • Progress Schedule File Name 21 Format: City Project Number_Project Name_YYYY-MM 22 Example: 101376_North Montgomery Street HMAC_2018_01 23 24 • Project Schedule Progress Narrative File Name 25 Format: City Project Number_Project Name_PN_YYYY-MM 26 Example: 101376_North Montgomery Street HMAC_PN_2018_01 27 28 F. Schedule Templates 29 The Contractor will utilize the relevant sections from the City’s templates provided in 30 the City’s document management system as the basis for creating their respective 31 project schedule. Specifically, the Contractor’s schedule will align with the layout of 32 the Construction section. The templates are identified by type of project as noted 33 below. 34 • Arterials 35 • Aviation 36 • Neighborhood Streets 37 • Sidewalks (later) 38 • Quiet Zones (later) 39 • Street Lights (later) 40 • Intersection Improvements (later) 41 • Parks 42 • Storm water 43 • Street Maintenance 44 • Traffic 45 • Water 46 47 G.

The Contractor will establish a schedule calendar as part of 4 the schedule development process and provide to the Project Control Specialist as part 5 of the basis for their schedule. Variations between the City’s calendar and the 6 Contractor’s calendar must be resolved prior to the City’s acceptance of their Baseline 7 project schedule. 8 9 H. WBS & Milestone Standards for Schedule Development 10 The scope of work to be accomplished by the Contractor is represented in the schedule 11 in the form of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The WBS is the basis for the 12 development of the schedule activities and shall be imbedded and depicted in the 13 schedule. 14 15 The following is a summary of the standards to be followed in preparing and 16 maintaining a schedule for project delivery. 17 18 1. Contractor is required to utilize the City’s WBS structure and respective 19 project type template for “Construction” as shown in Section 1.4.H below. 20 Additional activities may be added to Levels 1 - 4 to accommodate the needs 21 of the organization executing the work. Specifically the Contractor will add 22 activities under WBS XXXXXX.80.83 “Construction Execution” that 23 delineates the activities associated with the various components of the work. 24 25 2. Contractor is required to adhere to the City’s Standard Milestones as shown in 26 Section 1.4.I below. Contractor will include additional milestones 27 representing intermediate deliverables as required to accurately reflect their 28 scope of work. 29 30 I. Schedule Activities 31 Activities are the discrete elements of work that make up the schedule. They will be 32 organized under the umbrella of the WBS. Activity descriptions should adequately 33 describe the activity, and in some cases the extent of the activity. All activities are 34 logically tied with a predecessor and a successor. The only exception to this rule is for 35 “project start” and “project finish” milestones. 36 37 The activity duration is based on the physical amount of work to be performed for the 38 stated activity, with a maximum duration of 20 working days OR a continuous activity 39 in one location. If the work for any one activity exceeds 20 days, break that activity 40 down incrementally to achieve this duration constraint. Any exception to this requires 41 review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist. 42 43 J. Change Orders 44 When a Change Order is issued by the City, the impact is incorporated into the 45 previously accepted baseline schedule as an update, to clearly show impact to the 46 project timeline. The Contractor submits this updated baseline schedule to the City for 47 48 01 32 16 - 6 CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS SCHEDULE Page 6 of 10 CITY OF FORT WORTH WATER REPLACEMENTS ALONG 7TH STREET STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS VAN ZANDT 12-INCH WATER Revised October 6, 2023 CITY PROJECT NO. 105062-5 review and acceptance as described in Section 1.5 below. Updated baseline schedules 1 adhere to the following: 2 3 1. Time extensions associated with approved contract modifications are limited to the 4 actual amount of time the project activities are anticipated to be delayed, unless 5 otherwise approved by the Program Manager. 6 7 2. The re-baselined schedule is submitted by the Contractor within ten workdays after 8 the date of receipt of the approved Change Order. 9 10 3. The changes in logic or durations approved by the City are used to analyze the 11 impact of the change and is included in the Change Order. The coding for a new 12 activity(s) added to the schedule for the Change Order includes the Change Order 13 number in the Activity ID. Use as many activities as needed to accurately show the 14 work of the Change Order. Revisions to the baseline schedule are not effective 15 until accepted by the City. 16 K.

The project limits are approximately from Hulen Street to Clifton Street and east of the Fort Worth traffic circle in the vicinity of Marks Place and Irene Street. The project vicinity and approximate locations of exploration borings are illustrated on Plates A.1a, A.1b, and A.1c, Plan of Borings. 1.2 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurface conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered, develop comments on general excavation and directional boring, and provide earthwork recommendations. To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted in the following phases: (1) drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to determine pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. The design is currently in progress and the locations and/or elevations of the pipelines could change. Once the final design is near completion (80-percent to 90-percent stage), it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the construction documents pertaining to the geotechnical recommendations, as a means to determine that our recommendations have been interpreted as intended. 1.3 Report Format The text of the report is contained in Sections 1 through 7. All plates and large tables are contained in Appendix A. The alpha-numeric plate and table numbers identify the appendix in which they appear. Small tables of less than one page in length may appear in the body of the text and are numbered according to the section in which they occur. Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 2 Units used in the report are based on the English system and may include tons per square foot (tsf), kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds), kips per square foot (ksf), pounds per square foot (psf), pounds per cubic foot (pcf), and pounds per square inch (psi). 2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING 2.1 Field Exploration Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by eleven (11) vertical soil borings. Boring B- 1 was unable to be drilled due to brick pavers that were unable to be removed; the original boring nomenclature was kept for sake of continuity. Borings B-2 through B-12 were drilled to depths of 20 feet along the proposed alignment. The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations shown on the Plan of Borings, Plates A.1a, A.1b, and A.1c. The boring logs are included on Plates A.4 through A.14 and keys to classifications and symbols used on the logs are provided on Plates A.2 and A.3. Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin-walled (Shelby) tube samplers at the locations shown on the logs of borings. The Shelby tube sampler consists of a thin-walled steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the soil by the hydraulic pulldown of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to limit the loss of moisture. The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand penetrometer. In this test, a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the relatively undisturbed sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25 inch. The results of these tests, in tsf, are tabulated at respective sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the value is tabulated as 4.5+. To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, a modified version of the Texas Cone Penetration test was performed at selected locations. Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) Test Method Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3-inch diameter cone with a 170- pound hammer freely falling 24 inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each blow. This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. This results in 350 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. In relatively soft materials, the penetrometer cone Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 3 is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is tabulated at respective test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock or rock-like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for the first and second 50 blows, a total of 100 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows is recorded at the respective testing depths on the boring log. Groundwater observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the upper right of the boring log. Upon completion of the borings, the bore holes were backfilled with soil cuttings and patched with concrete or asphalt as appropriate. 2.2 Laboratory Testing Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the borings. In addition to the classification tests (liquid limits, plastic limits, and particle size analyses), moisture content, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests were performed. Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs. The particle size analyses results are presented on Plates A.15 through A.22. Analytical tests to aid in evaluation of corrosive potential of the on-site soils were performed on selected samples recovered from the borings. The results of the analytical testing are tabulated on Plate A.23. The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM procedures, or generally accepted practice. 3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 3.1 Site Geology The Dallas Sheet of the Geologic Atlas of Texas indicates the majority of the project site is located in the Duck Creek Formation of Lower Cretaceous Age. The Duck Creek Formation consists of limestone with some shaley portions. This formation typically weathers to form relatively deep active clay soils. Borings B-6, B-7, and B-9 are located in the Kiamichi Formation of Lower Cretaceous Age, which is approximately 25 feet thick and is composed of weak, extremely active clays. Outcrops Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 4 of the Kiamichi normally form narrow bands on hillsides. Heavy water seepage can occur along the contact zone between the Duck Creek and Kiamichi Formation during periods of heavy rainfall. 3.2 Soil Conditions Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings is discussed below. Note that depths on the borings refer to the depth from the existing grade or ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate. Existing paving at the boring locations consisted of 2 to 4 inches of asphalt in Borings B-6 through B-9 and B-11 through B-12, and 5½ to 8½ inches of concrete in Borings B-2 through B-5 and B-10. The concrete encountered in Borings B-2 through B-4 was overlain by brick pavers. Sand or sand and gravel base material was present below the pavement in Borings B-7 through B-10 and B-12 with thicknesses of 3 to 5 inches. Table 3.2-1 summarizes the existing pavement sections as encountered in the borings. TABLE 3.2-1 Existing Pavement Sections Boring No. Existing Pavement Existing Subgrade B-2 2½” Brick over 7½” PCC - B-3 2½” Brick over 5½” PCC - B-4 2½” Brick over 8” PCC - B-5 8½” PCC - B-6 2” HMAC over 8” PCC - B-7 3” HMAC 5” Gravel Base over 2” PCC B-8 4” HMAC 5” Gravel Base B-9 3½” HMAC 4” Sand and Gravel Base B-10 5¾” PCC 3” Sand Base B-11 3½” HMAC - B-12 2” HMAC 5” Sand and Gravel Base Fill and possible fill materials were observed below the paving extending to depths of 3 to 4 feet in Borings B-11 and B-12 consisting of dark brown and brown clays and silty clays, containing asphalt fragments, iron seams, ironstone nodules, calcareous nodules pebbles, and gravel. Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 5 Natural soils encountered consist of various dark brown, brown, light brown, light reddish brown, gray, and tan clays, silty clays, sandy clays, silty shaly clays, and shaly clays. The various natural soils typically contain iron seams, iron stains, ironstone nodules, limestone fragments, calcareous deposits, gravel, and occasional calcareous seams and limestone seams. A 2 foot thick tan gravel layer with sand and silt seams was encountered in Boring B-6 at a depth of 7 feet. Borings B-5, B- 9, B-10, and B-12 were terminated in the various clayey soils at a depth of 20 feet. The various clayey soils encountered in the borings had tested Liquid Limits (LL) ranging from 26 to 69 with Plasticity Indices (PI) of 12 to 48 and are classified as SP, SC, CL, and CH according to the USCS. The various clayey soils encountered are generally stiff to hard (soil basis) with pocket penetrometer values ranging from 2.0 to over 4.5 tsf. Tested dry unit weight and unconfined compressive strength values range from 91 to 117 pcf and 2,120 to 8,520 psf, respectively. Tan limestone was next encountered in Borings B-2 through B-4, B-8, B-11, and B-12 at depths of 1 to 10 feet. The tan limestone occasionally occurs fractured or weathered in upper reaches, contains clay seams and occasional clay layers and varies from soft to very hard (rock basis), with Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) test values of ½ to 6¾ inches of penetration for 100 hammer blows. Borings B-2 and B-8 were terminated in the tan limestone at a depth of 20 feet. Gray limestone was next encountered in Borings B-3, B-4, and B-11 at depths of 14 to 17 feet. The gray limestone occasionally contains shale seams and is considered hard to very hard (rock basis), with Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) test values of 1 to 1¾ inches of penetration for 100 hammer blows. Borings B-3, B-4, and B-11 were terminated in the gray limestone at a depth of 20 feet. Gray shale was next encountered in Borings B-6 and B-7 at a depth of 16 feet. The gray shale contains limestone layers and is considered moderately hard (rock basis) with a Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) value of 2¼ inches of penetration per 100 blows. Borings B-6 and B-7 were terminated in the gray shale at a depth of 20 feet. 3.3 Groundwater Observations The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe groundwater seepage during drilling. Groundwater seepage was encountered during drilling in Borings B-6 at a depth of 9 feet below existing grade. A groundwater level of 12 feet was measured at drilling completion in Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 6 Boring B-6. Borehole cave-in was also observed in Boring B-6 at a depth of 13 feet during drilling. Borings B-2 through B-5 and B-7 through B-12 were dry during drilling and at completion. Fluctuations of the groundwater level can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall; site topography and runoff; hydraulic conductivity of soil strata; and other factors not evident at the time the borings were drilled. Groundwater can occur in joints in the clays, atop the limestone or shale or via more permeable strata and should be considered when developing the design and construction plans for the project. Water traveling through the soil (subsurface water) is unpredictable. This could be due to seasonal changes in the groundwater and due to the unpredictable nature of groundwater paths. Therefore, it is necessary during construction for the contractor to be observant of groundwater seepage in excavations in order to assess the situation and take appropriate action. 4.0 TRENCH / BORE EXCAVATIONS 4.1 Expected Subsurface Conditions The various soil materials encountered in the borings can be excavated using conventional earthwork equipment. Where more granular materials are present, such as encountered in Boring B-6, some caving may occur due to the low-plasticity nature of these materials and with the presence of groundwater which was also present in Boring B-6. Moderately hard to very hard limestones and shales were encountered in Borings B-2 through B-4, B-6 through B-8, B-11, and B-12 at depths of 1 to 16 feet. Heavy-duty specialized equipment will likely be required to excavate through the limestones and shales. In addition, overexcavation should be anticipated within the limestone and shale. Overexcavation may result from large blocks or chunks breaking along either weathered or clay seams beyond the planned excavation. 4.2 Open Cut The trench excavations should be performed in accordance with OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1919), Subpart P. For excavations less than 5 feet deep through the various clays, it is expected that near-vertical excavation walls will be possible. For excavations which occur through soft clays, granular soils, loose fill, or submerged soils, it will be necessary to either slope the excavation sidewalls or provide temporary bracing to control excavation wall instability. In addition, Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 7 for excavations deeper than 5 feet, the excavation sidewalls must be sloped, or temporary bracing must be provided, regardless of the soil conditions encountered. The design of any trench or excavation safety plans required is the contractor’s responsibility. 4.3 Directional Bore Comments The results of the exploration borings indicate the presence of granular materials as well as groundwater seepage in Boring B-6. These conditions will complicate directional boring operations. The more granular strata can serve as conduits to direct water towards the bore excavation. Caving may occur due to the low plasticity nature of these materials, possibly requiring casing or slurry methods for borehole stability. Water seepage can decrease the stability of the bore/tunnel excavation and result in ground subsidence. Proper dewatering, as discussed below, is imperative for excavation stability. Otherwise, the predominate natural clayey materials are generally good materials for bore/tunneling operations. Pipe installment via jacking would be very difficult in tan and gray limestone and shale. Boring with hardened rock teeth would likely be required below 1- to 16-foot depths in select areas due to the presence of the limestone and shale. Proper dewatering, as discussed below, is imperative for excavation stability should groundwater be encountered. The contractor may consider surface settlement monitoring measurements during construction, particularly in sensitive areas such as right-of-way crossing(s). 4.4 Trench / Bore Pit Dewatering As discussed in Section 3.3, Groundwater Observations, groundwater conditions can vary with seasonal fluctuations in rainfall. In the case that groundwater is encountered, controlling the groundwater is essential to the construction of the proposed utility lines. Furthermore, the more granular, sandy soils can act like a “quick” condition, in which soil strength reduces to a very small magnitude when vibratory construction equipment traverses this soil, particularly if not properly dewatered. In addition to proper dewatering, care must be taken to cause as minimal disturbance as possible on sandy soils in the excavation. Failure to control any encountered groundwater could result in excavation collapse, excavation bottom heave, an unstable bottom and detrimental pipeline settlement and pipe deflections after backfilling. Groundwater levels should be maintained at least two feet below the base of the excavation for the full term of construction. Protection of the open excavations should be provided during periods of moderate to heavy rainfall, as surface water will most likely channel and collect in the excavations. The water level should be lowered prior to Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 8 excavating and should be maintained at this lowered level until the pipe trench is backfilled. If water infiltration rates are high, it may be necessary to install a more elaborate dewatering system. The design of any dewatering system required is the contractor’s responsibility. 4.5 Soft Trench Bottom Conditions Soft trench bottom conditions are unlikely where the trench bottom is situated in the natural soils, limestones, or shales; however such conditions may exist in areas of existing fill or more granular materials as encountered in select borings. Control of groundwater as discussed above is the key to avoiding an unstable trench bottom in more granular soils, as well as cohesive soils. Unstable trench bottoms are unsuitable for support of the proposed pipelines. Soft clays or saturated sands could occur where groundwater is present. In any areas where unsuitable bearing materials are encountered at the planned invert elevation, the trench bottom can be prepared using the following method:  Under-cut to a suitable bearing subgrade and replace it with a structural compacted fill. The over-excavation should extend laterally a distance of at least 1 foot beyond the edges of the pipe, and then at least 1 foot laterally for every 1.5 feet of fill required beneath the pipe. The over-excavation backfill should be surrounded with a geotextile consisting of Mirafi 140N, Amoco ProPex 4545, or equivalent. The backfill should consist of a free-draining aggregate (i.e., sands, gravels, crushed limestone, or crushed concrete) approved by the geotechnical engineer. The backfill should be placed in maximum 9-inch loose lifts and uniformly compacted to a minimum relative density of 65 percent as determined by test methods ASTM D4253 and D4254. 4.6 Excavation Considerations If open trench cuts are performed within 1.25 times the trench depth of any surface structure, trench shoring (not trench boxes) should be used within open trench cuts performed within this distance. Hydraulic shoring struts should be used and installed during excavation as needed to provide full lateral support to vertical trench sidewalls and thereby help reduce lateral ground movements near existing structures. A pre-construction condition survey should be performed prior to beginning excavation near any structure that could be affected by the trench excavation to verify existing conditions (existing distress) prior to construction. Construction monitoring should be performed to verify that existing structures are not impacted or damaged by construction operations. Where pavement crossings may occur, any pavement repair structure (asphalt or base course material) should extend a minimum of 12 inches beyond the edge of the excavation trench. This Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 9 additional width of pavement structure greatly reduces the potential for reflective cracking upwards into the pavement. 4.7 Pipe Installation Bedding To assure adequate base support for the pipe, it is recommended that bedding/embedment material be placed around the pipe, 6 inches below the pipe, and 12 inches above the pipe. If concern exists of native backfill above the embedment migrating into the more coarse embedment (and causing backfill settlement), a filter cloth is recommended at the embedment/native soil interface. The filter cloth should cover the entire interface and up through the sidewall a minimum of 1 foot. Bedding material may consist of gravel/stone from 1” to No. 10 sieve size. Gravel should be consolidated upon placement by rodding or pneumatic vibration methods. Such methods should not cause harm or distress to the pipe. The filter cloth should be TenCate Geosynthetics Mirafi 140N or equivalent. 4.8 Trench Backfill Site excavated materials are generally considered suitable for use as backfill above the pipe bedding materials. All trench backfill should be free of deleterious materials. Use of rock fragments greater than 4 inches in any dimension should be prohibited, since attaining a uniform moisture and density without voids would be difficult. Backfill should be compacted in maximum 8-inch loose lifts at a minimum of 95 percent of the Standard Proctor density (ASTM D698). The uncompacted lift thickness should be reduced to 4 inches for structure backfill zones requiring hand-operated power compactors or small self-propelled compactors. Clay soils having a Plasticity Index greater than 20 should be compacted at a moisture content ranging from 0 to plus 4 percentage points above the optimum moisture content. Granular soils having a PI less than 20 should be compacted at a moisture content ranging from minus 3 to plus 3 percentage points of the optimum moisture content. Jetting to compact the pipe backfill should not be allowed. In areas where the settlement of the backfill must be closely controlled, the trench excavation should be backfilled with either cement stabilized sand or flowable concrete having a 28- day compressive strength ranging between 50 and 200 psi. Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 10 4.9 Trench Backfill Settlement The settlement of the backfill soils should be anticipated. It is anticipated that properly compacted on-site clay fill soils will settle between about 1 and 2 percent of the fill thickness. For example, 10 feet of fill would be expected to settle on the order of 1.2 to 2.4 inches. The trench backfill could be over-built in order to reduce the potential for a surface depression along the trench centerline. We recommend the backfill be crowned. The centerline of the excavation should be over-built by one foot and sloped down to match grade at the edge of the excavation. 4.10 Provisions to Reduce Backfill Settlement Field testing will be a critical element in controlling the compaction of the backfill to limit settlement. All trench backfilling in these critical areas shall include full-time observation of soil compaction by an experienced geotechnician under the supervision of the geotechnical engineer. The contractor should provide protection for the testing/inspection personnel while working in the trenches and shall move the protective shield/shoring such that areas to be tested are readily accessible. The compacted moisture/density of all backfill soils should be tested at a rate of one test per 100 linear feet of trench, for each lift of fill placed, during compaction. Digging through existing lifts of backfill to access and test underlying lifts should not be allowed. In addition, to limit settlement where crushed stone materials are used as pipe bedding materials, a suitable geotextile may be placed atop the crushed stone embedment to limit the intrusion of fines into the crushed stone material. 5.0 GENERAL EARTHWORK 5.1 Site Preparation & Field Testing The subgrade should be firm and able to support the construction equipment without displacement. Soft or yielding subgrade should be corrected and made stable before construction proceeds. The subgrade should be proof rolled to detect soft spots, which if exist, should be excavated to provide a firm and otherwise suitable subgrade. Proof rolling should be performed using a heavy pneumatic tired roller, loaded dump truck, or similar piece of equipment. The proof rolling operations should be observed by the project geotechnical engineer or his/her representative. Prior to fill placement, the subgrade should be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches, its moisture content adjusted, and recompacted to the moisture and density recommended for fill. Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 11 Fill materials should be uniform with respect to material type and moisture content. Clods and chunks of material should be broken down and the fill material mixed by disking, blading, or plowing, as necessary, so that a material of uniform moisture and density is obtained for each lift. Water required for sprinkling to bring the fill material to the proper moisture content should be applied evenly through each layer. 5.2 Placement and Compaction Fill material should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 8 inches in uncompacted thickness. The uncompacted lift thickness should be reduced to 4 inches for structure backfill zones requiring hand- operated power compactors or small self-propelled compactors. The fill material should be uniform with respect to material type and moisture content. Clods and chunks of material should be broken down and the fill material mixed by disking, blading, or plowing, as necessary, so that a material of uniform moisture and density is obtained for each lift. Water required for sprinkling to bring the fill material to the proper moisture content should be applied evenly through each layer. General fill material should be compacted to a density ranging from 95 to 100 percent of maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698, Standard Proctor. Crushed stone should be compacted via three passes of a vibratory roller over a 6-inch lift. In conjunction with the compacting operation, the fill material should be brought to the proper moisture content. The moisture content for general earth fill should range from 2 percentage points below optimum to 5 percentage points above optimum (-2 to +5). These ranges of moisture contents are given as maximum recommended ranges. For some soils and under some conditions, the contractor may have to maintain a more narrow range of moisture content (within the recommended range) in order to consistently achieve the recommended density. Field density tests should be taken as each lift of fill material is placed. As a guide, one field density test per lift for each 5,000 square feet of compacted area is recommended. For small areas or critical areas, the frequency of testing may need to be increased to one test per 2,500 square feet. A minimum of 2 tests per lift should be required. The earthwork operations should be observed and tested on a continuing basis by an experienced geotechnician working in conjunction with the project geotechnical engineer. Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 12 5.3 Excavation The side slopes of excavations through the overburden soils should be made in such a manner to provide for their stability during construction. Existing structures, pipelines or other facilities, which are constructed prior to or during the currently proposed construction and which require excavation, should be protected from loss of end bearing or lateral support. Temporary construction slopes and/or permanent embankment slopes should be protected from surface runoff water. Site grading should be designed to allow drainage at planned areas where erosion protection is provided, instead of allowing surface water to flow down unprotected slopes. Trench safety recommendations are beyond the scope of this report. The contractor must comply with all applicable safety regulations concerning trench safety and excavations including, but not limited to, OSHA regulations. 5.4 Acceptance of Imported Fill Any soil imported from off-site sources should be tested for compliance with the recommendations for the particular application and approved by the project geotechnical engineer prior to the materials being used. The owner should also require the contractor to obtain a written, notarized certification from the landowner of each proposed off-site soil borrow source stating that to the best of the landowner's knowledge and belief there has never been contamination of the borrow source site with hazardous or toxic materials. The certification should be furnished to the owner prior to proceeding to furnish soils to the site. Soil materials derived from the excavation of underground petroleum storage tanks should not be used as fill on this project. 5.5 Soil Corrosion Potential Various analytical laboratory tests were performed on selected soil samples. These tests include chloride, sulfates, and pH. The tests indicate that the subsurface clayey soils are mildly corrosive to buried concrete. The results of these tests are attached on Plate A.24. Standard construction practices for protecting buried pipes and similar facilities in contact with these soils should be used. 5.6 Erosion and Sediment Control All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and all permanent slopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 13 permanent erosion and sediment control facilities. All applicable ordinances and codes regarding erosion and sediment control should be followed. 6.0 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS In any geotechnical investigation, the design recommendations are based on a limited amount of information about the subsurface conditions. In the analysis, the geotechnical engineer must assume the subsurface conditions are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings. However, quite often during construction anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed. Therefore, it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to observe earthwork and foundation installation and perform materials evaluation during the construction phase of the project. This enables the geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily available to evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to recommend alternative solutions to unanticipated conditions. Until these construction phase services are performed by the project geotechnical engineer, the recommendations contained in this report on such items as final foundation bearing elevations, proper soil moisture condition, and other such subsurface related recommendations should be considered as preliminary. It is proposed that construction phase observation and materials testing commence by the project geotechnical engineer at the outset of the project. Experience has shown that the most suitable method for procuring these services is for the owner or the owner's design engineers to contract directly with the project geotechnical engineer. This results in a clear, direct line of communication between the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer. 7.0 REPORT CLOSURE The boring logs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soil encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the interface between these materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests were also performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests, along with visual-manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of classifications for those Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 14 portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soil classification tests were not performed. It is not implied that these logs are representative of subsurface conditions at other locations and times. With regard to groundwater conditions, this report presents data on groundwater levels as they were observed during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the report and on the boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the groundwater table can occur with passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature, and other factors. Also, this report does not include quantitative information on rates of flow of groundwater into excavations, on pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering excavations. Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and cannot be fully predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected conditions frequently require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly designed and constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is recommended to accommodate such potential extra cost. The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of our field investigation and further on the assumption that the exploratory borings are representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the site; that is, the subsurface conditions everywhere are not significantly different from those disclosed by the borings at the time they were completed. If, during construction, different subsurface conditions from those encountered in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we must be advised promptly so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure locations, structural loads or finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time lapse. Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the plans and specifications for this particular project that pertain to earthwork and foundations as a means to determine whether the plans and specifications are consistent with the recommendations contained Report No. 103-23-519 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 15 in this report. In addition, we are available to observe construction, particularly the compaction of structural fill, or backfill and the construction of foundations as recommended in the report, and such other field observations as might be necessary. The scope of our services did not include any environmental assessment or investigation for the presence or absence of wetlands or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, surface water, groundwater or air, on or below or around the site. This report has been prepared for use in developing an overall design concept. Paragraphs, statements, test results, boring logs, diagrams, etc. should not be taken out of context, nor utilized without a knowledge and awareness of their intent within the overall concept of this report. The reproduction of this report, or any part thereof, supplied to persons other than the owner, should indicate that this study was made for design purposes only and that verification of the subsurface conditions for purposes of determining difficulty of excavation, trafficability, etc. are responsibilities of the contractor. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for specific application to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in connection with the services provided is that we have used that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised under similar conditions by reputable members of our profession practicing in the same or similar locality. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made or intended. * * * * MATCHLINEPLAN OF BORINGS A.1aPlateCMJ Project No. 103-23-519 LEGEND: Boring Location SOURCE: GOOGLE EARTH, 2022; IMAGERY DATE: 10/2021 B-10 B-4 B-11 Water and Sanitary Sewer Improvements Camp Bowie Fort Worth, Texas 0 200 400 FEET APPROXIMATE SCALE B-3 B-12 CLOVER LANECRESTLINE ROAD CAM P B O W I E B O U L E V A R DHULEN STREET MATCHLINE0 200 400 FEET APPROXIMATE SCALE PLAN OF BORINGS A.1bPlateCMJ Project No. 103-23-519 LEGEND: Boring Location SOURCE: GOOGLE EARTH, 2022; IMAGERY DATE: 10/2021 (not drilled) B-2 Water and Sanitary Sewer Improvements Camp Bowie Fort Worth, Texas B-5 CLARKE AVENUE MONTGOMERY STREETW LANCASTER AVENUE CRESTLINE ROAD CAM P B O W I E B O U L E V A R D B-1 PLAN OF BORINGS A.1cPlateCMJ Project No. 103-23-519 LEGEND: Boring Location SOURCE: GOOGLE EARTH, 2024; IMAGERY DATE: 10/2021 B-9 B-8 B-7 Water and Sanitary Sewer Improvements Camp Bowie Fort Worth, Texas B-6IRENE DRIVECAM P B O W I E B O U L E V A R D/ 3 7 7 ALTA MERE DRIVE / 183MARKS PLACE0 125 250 FEET APPROXIMATE SCALE Fine-grained soils (More than half of material is smaller than No. 200 sieve)Sands (More than half of coarse fraction is smaller than No. 4 sieve size)Gravels (More than half of coarse fraction is larger than No. 4 sieve size)Sands with fines (Appreciable amount of fines)Clean sands (Little or no fines)Gravels with fines (Appreciable amount of fines)Clean gravels (Little or no fines)Pt OH CH MH OL CL ML SC SM SP SW GC GM GP GW Grp.

Answer: A Business Equity Prime Contractor can count its self-performance towards meeting the Business Equity Goal for the assigned North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) commodity codes on its Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) or Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certification. 2. What if I am a Business Equity Firm, but I am unable to self perform all work or provide all of the goods under the bid, can I count my performance under the Bid? Answer: If the Business Equity Prime cannot self-perform all of the work, it will be accountable for subcontracting with certified firms to meet the overall goal. Business Equity Firms that qualify under the “Significant Business Presence” definition may count in the Program upon approval of DVIN-BE. 3. This bid does not have a set amount that the City will purchase from the Awarded Bidder, how do I complete the form? Answers: a. For a low bid procurement, the lowest bidder shall submit a Utilization Plan no later than 2:00 PM on the third business day after bids are opened detailing all Subcontractors the Contractor intends to utilize in its performance of a Contract.
