City of Orono – Orono Public Works Facility, Orono, MN <br />AET Proposal No. P-0012042 <br />September 15, 2022 <br />Page 6 of 10 <br /> <br /> <br />accordance with the project specifications. <br /> Observe and test the shear studs welds for suitability and quality in accordance with <br />the requirements of AWS “Structural Welding Code” D1.1 – Section 7. <br /> <br />Any deficiencies or deviations which are observed will be reported to personnel from the <br />contractor and/or their subcontractor. We estimate 5 trips will be required to complete <br />our observations of the welded and bolted connections on this project. Daily field reports <br />of our observations and testing will be available to the contractor and other authorized <br />site personnel. <br /> <br /> Double-Ring Infiltrometer Testing <br />After the infiltration basins are prepared, and the site has been stabilized, AET will perform <br />double-ring infiltrometer testing on the soil subgrade and on the infiltration media after <br />placement. Our testing will be performed by an experienced Staff Engineer I on an on- <br />call basis. With the size of the basins taken into consideration, we assume that 2 double <br />ring infiltrometer tests will be performed to determine the infiltration rates of the basins. <br /> <br />Assumptions were made determining the estimated fees of the project. We assumed that <br />AET will: <br /> <br /> Perform two test per visit to the site, each test taking two/three hours to complete. <br /> Provide our own water supply to the site, limiting trips to refill water tanks. <br /> Use a company auxiliary vehicle to supply the equipment and water tanks needed. <br /> Bill travel time and miles from our St. Paul, Minnesota office. <br /> <br /> Post-Installed Anchor Installation Observations and Testing <br />During placement of the new building foundations and/or walls, connected to the stoops <br />and aprons, AET will provide an Engineering Assistant to perform observations of the <br />installation of the post-installed anchors. These services will be performed on an on-call <br />basis when requested by the contractor. Our services will include the following: <br /> <br /> Observe that the specified anchor and epoxy types are installed. <br /> Observe anchor hole depth, diameter, and cleanliness. <br /> Observe installation process for epoxy anchors for compliance with the manufacturer’s <br />ICC-ES procedure. <br /> Observe anchor embedment depth. <br /> <br />Any deficiencies or deviations which are observed will be reported to personnel from the <br />contractor and/or their subcontractor. We estimate 2 trips will be required by the <br />Engineering Assistant to complete our observations of the post-installed anchor <br />installation on this project. Daily field reports of our observations and testing will be <br />available to the contractor and other authorized site personnel. <br />
