Geotechnical Engineering Agreement

This week we entered into an agreement with Anderson Engineering Consultants. Inc (AECI) for a geotechnical engineering investigation and report. This investigation and report will be used to compile the specifications for the dirt work. An overview of the analysis is to do core drills at various depths on the project and in various locations to analyze the settlement of the soil, the bearing capacity, swell and shrinkage potential of the overburden soil, suitability of the on-site soil for use as fill, flexible and rigid pavement designs and other pertinent geotechnical design recommendations. The expected schedule for total completion of this phase of the project is estimated to be from four to six weeks with advanced design information forwarded as soon as it it available. In addition, I have been in communication with the architect and the design team almost daily and they are continuing the design and specifications on the building as well.
