Geotechnical Engineering Sample Clauses
The Geotechnical Engineering clause defines the responsibilities and requirements related to the investigation and analysis of soil, rock, and subsurface conditions at a construction site. It typically outlines the scope of geotechnical studies, such as soil sampling, laboratory testing, and reporting, and may specify who is responsible for providing geotechnical data and how it should be used in the design and construction process. This clause ensures that all parties have a clear understanding of the site's ground conditions, helping to prevent unforeseen issues during construction and allocate risk appropriately.

Geotechnical Engineering. Perform geotechnical engineering services in accordance with the NJDOT Capital Project Procedures.
Geotechnical Engineering. Geotechnical services including geotechnical investigations and/or calculations and incorporate findings and recommendations into final design solutions.
Geotechnical Engineering. Consultant shall be able to perform tasks associated with the design and analysis of geological systems and equipment, including but not limited to, reviewing and preparing geological Plans (and details), Specifications, and Cost Estimates (PS&E), reports, assessments, and calculations as deemed necessary to complete the job and in compliance with the current local, state, and federal required standards, laws, and regulations of such disciplines.
Geotechnical Engineering. Atlas Technical Consultants will provide geotechnical engineering services for the project as a subconsultant to us. A copy of ▇▇▇▇▇’s proposal to provide geotechnical engineering services is attached. Geotechnical engineering will be performed in accordance with the requirements of the Fort Bend County Engineering Design Manual and will include: • Drilling a total of six (6) soil borings within the path of the proposed sidewalks (maximum spacing of 500 feet) to a depth of ten (10) feet each. The borings will be drilled using a truck-mounted drill rig and support vehicle. Undisturbed cohesive soil samples will be obtained using 3-inch diameter thin-walled tube samplers pushed in the soil. Non-cohesive soil samples will be obtained using split-barrel samplers used in conjunction with the standard penetration test (SPT). Groundwater readings will be obtained as the boring is advanced and following completion of drilling, as possible. Upon completion of drilling operations, borings will be backfilled with soil cuttings at the surface. • Determining the relative density/consistency of the soil in general accordance with the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) (ASTM D 1586) and/or Shelby tube (ASTM D 1587). • Marking boring locations using hand-held GPS or normal taping procedures prior to drilling so that both sides of the roadway are addressed. Boring locations will be added to site plans. • Laboratory testing to evaluate the engineering properties of the soil and/or rock using tests performed on selected representative samples. The samples will be visually examined and classified. The following tests will be performed: - Moisture content - Atterberg Limits (for cohesive soils) - Percent passing a No. 200 sieve - Soil classification according to USCS - Shear strength with pocket penetrometer (for cohesive soils) • Analyzing the field and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations. • Preparation of an engineering report to include: ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, P.E.

Geotechnical Engineering. The Design Professional shall, during the Schematic Design Phase, submit to the Owner a statement of necessary geotechnical or soils engineering services that will be required. If the Design Professional does not believe the services of a Geotechnical Engineer are required for the project, a written notice of such shall be provided to the Owner stating same. Geotechnical engineering and any necessary surveys shall be Owner-provided, an Additional Service or a reimbursable expense.
Geotechnical Engineering. Consultant shall provide Geotechnical Engineering services for City projects during earthwork construction operations that the City Engineer determines are necessary to meet finished grades shown on the plans and cross sections. Consultant shall provide Geotechnical Engineering observation during site preparation for placement of fill and construction of sub-drainage systems. Consultant shall make recommendations regarding the removal of unsuitable materials for fills and methods of compaction based upon previous geotechnical investigations and Consultant’s own observations. For tests results that failed, Consultant shall provide analysis of the failure and a recommendation of possible solutions in a signed &stamped report to the City. On tests that passed, Consultant shall state so in the signed and stamped report provided to the City. Said reports shall include the appropriate specifications next to the test results.
Geotechnical Engineering. The services of a geotechnical engineering firm will be retained by the CONTRACTOR (see SC-06). A representative of the geotechnical engineer shall be present at the site to observe site grading, trenching and backfilling work, and other work, and to take field density tests. Also, the geotechnical engineer will perform laboratory testing of CONTRACTOR-submitted soils to determine their acceptability for use as base course, subbase and fill materials. The geotechnical engineer shall also perform compaction tests for embankments, subbase, base course and trench and structural backfill. The Geotechnical Engineer’s authority shall be as described in DHHL Construction General Conditions, Section 5.4 (March 2014). The CONTRACTOR shall request compaction tests a minimum of 48-hours in advance. Sufficient time shall be allotted to perform field and laboratory tests prior to the placement of material. Resultant delays shall be governed by Section 7.21 of the DHHL Construction General Conditions (March 2014). The CONTRACTOR shall be held responsible for the following geotechnical testing costs:
Geotechnical Engineering. The City shall provide a geotechnical report from which all structural information shall be based.
