S <br /> be retained for possible laboratory testing. We have assumed that the cuttings will <br /> be drummed and hauled off site. <br /> Laboratory Testin4. The laboratory testing will include natural water contents and <br /> Atterberg limits tests on selected samples to classify the foundation soils and <br /> estimate their overall engineering properties. <br /> Engineering • Memorandum, We will summarize our findings in an engineering <br /> memorandum. The memorandum will include a description of our work, a discussion <br /> of site conditions, the log for the exploratory borehole and a summary of the <br /> laboratory test results. Recommendations will be provided for pile foundations <br /> including recommended pile section, allowable axial capacities, estimated tip <br /> elevations, and lateral pile capacity. Recommendations for construction of the <br /> foundations, including minimum hammer energy, driving criteria and requirements for <br /> pile tip protection will also be provided. <br /> ESTIMATED COSTS <br /> We have estimated a cost of $8,000 for the proposed scope of work. We propose <br /> to conduct the work on a time and expense basis with this not-to-exceed amount. <br /> We will notify you immediately following the fieldwork in the event we encounter <br /> unanticipated soil conditions that would require modifying our proposed scope of <br /> work and .associated costs. <br /> • SCHEDULE <br /> We are prepared to begin work immediately upon notification to proceed. We expect <br /> that the subsurface exploration could be completed within one day. An additional <br /> two weeks would be required for the laboratory testing, engineering analysis and <br /> report preparation. Therefore, you should allow approximately three weeks for <br /> completion of our report. We will provide interim information to the project engineer <br /> as soon as it becomes available. Our first task, 'upon authorization to proceed, would <br /> be to locate underground utilities and coordinate the field exploration. <br /> We appreciate the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to the <br /> possibility of working with you on this project. Please do not hesitate to call if you <br /> have any questions regarding the proposed scope of work, estimated costs, or <br /> schedule. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> FOUNDATION ENGINEERWG, INC. <br /> David L.
