RFQ # 7742 - CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS TESTING AND
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION FOR THE CITY OF DENTON
ATTACHMENT A - DME SCOPE OF WORK
A: INTRODUCTION
The City of Denton (City), a home -rule city of the State of Texas, is requesting submissions of qualifications
for the purpose of selecting one firm with demonstrated experience in providing geotechnical engineering
services, construction material testing, construction inspection, and other related professional services for
Denton Municipal Electric's (DME) Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) projects.
The Firm must have a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Texas on staff to stamp all reports.
The Firm shall be located no more than 1 hour from Denton so that the Firm can respond to project needs
in a timely manner. Some CIP projects might require the Firm to be at the project site continuously for
several days at a time.
The firm shall have demonstrated experience providing the following services:
• Site boring, sampling, and field collection to support design of transmission tower foundations,
substation foundations, and others
• Concrete testing and P.E. signed Reports
• Soil testing and P.E. signed Reports
• Asphalt testing
• Structural steel welding inspection and P.E. signed Reports
• Masonry inspection and P.E. signed Reports
• Comprehensive report identifying existing geotechnical conditions
B: SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work to be performed is as required to assist Denton Municipal Electric with geotechnical
engineering and testing services as needed for CIP projects.
Below is a listing of the tasks the Firm shall complete for City approval of the project. This is not meant
to be a complete listing but is provided to give the firm an understanding of the scope of services
required:
Geotechnical Engineering Services: Professional services, based on industry standards, shall
include but not be limited to:
❖ Soil Borings — Site specific drilling and sampling locations to be coordinated with DME to
identify soil properties/conditions based on site and lab testing. The purpose of this service is
to identify stratigraphy and groundwater conditions and evaluate the properties of the
subsurface conditions. This service may also include traffic control measures, backfill,
pavement replacement, or other means to safely perform the work and return the site to
existing conditions.
DocuSign Envelope ID: DFA01E89-2D32-4331-B128-7AAOEAD8OE41
❖ Investigation Reporting — Compile comprehensive report documenting site field/laboratory
testing results and design recommendations for each project. The scope of the investigation
and reporting shall consist of evaluating the properties of the subsurface conditions, soil
resistivity, and potential vertical movement; and design recommendations for earthwork,
retaining walls, pavement sections, and foundations.
❖ Engineering Design — Collaborate with DME and/or representatives for DME as needed to
provide expertise/recommendation for geotechnical issues that may arise.
❖ Other geotechnical engineering services as required.
Construction Materials Testing and Inspection Services: Laboratory and field testing,
inspections, and reporting professional services, based on industry standards, to include but not be
limited to:
❖ Earthwork — testing and/or inspection of density, backfill lifts, imported material, soil
stabilizations, compaction, etc.
❖ Concrete Testing
■ Concrete shall be sampled in accordance with Standard Practice for Sampling Fresh
Mixed Concrete (ASTM C 172)
■ The slump of the concrete shall be tested as determined by the Standard Test Method
for Slump of Hydraulic -Cement Concrete (ASTM C143, CSA A23.2.20).
■ Sample cylinders shall be tested for compressive strength at 7 and 28 days.
■ Samples shall be tested according to Standard Test Method for Compressive Strength
of Cylindrical Concrete Specimens (ASTM C39, CSA A23.2.13).
■ Testing reports shall be provided to contractor, owner, and/or owner representative.
❖ Pavement — testing and/or inspection of thickness, concrete, reinforcement placement, etc.
❖ Foundations — testing and/or inspection of pier design/installation, concrete, reinforcement
placement, etc.
❖ Steel Structure —inspection of connections, welds, etc.
❖ Electronic Reporting — Provide an electronic reporting system for distribution of inspection
and testing results to DME personnel and consultants.
❖ Other testing and inspection engineering services as required.
C: CONTRACT STRUCTURE
The compensation for the geotechnical engineering and testing professional services will be structured as
appropriate for the task. Drilling and sampling may be priced per foot, lab tests are a set price, CMET &
engineering costs should be hourly. In addition, any sub -consultant costs should not exceed a 10%
increase in cost. Contract compensation will be negotiated with selected firm in accordance with
information contained in the RFQ invitation. The contract will have a total not -to -exceed amount for the
entire term of the contract.

of Bid submission the availability of insurance certificates and endorsements as prescribed
and provided herein. If an apparent low bidder fails to comply strictly with the insurance

DocuSign Envelope ID: DFAO1E89-2D32-4331-B128-7AAOEAD8OE41
1) a certificate of coverage, prior to that person beginning work on the project, so the
governmental entity will have on file certificates of coverage showing coverage

coverage showing extension of coverage, if the coverage period shown on the
current certificate of coverage ends during the duration of the project.
F. The contractor shall retain all required certificates of coverage for the duration of the
project and for one year thereafter.
G. The contractor shall notify the governmental entity in writing by certified mail or

services on the project.
H. The contractor shall post on each project site a notice, in the text, form and manner
prescribed by the Texas Workers' Compensation Commission, informing all persons
providing services on the project that they are required to be covered, and stating how

coverage showing extension of coverage, if the coverage period shown on the
current certificate of coverage ends during the duration of the project;
4) obtain from each other person with whom it contracts, and provide to the
contractor:
a) certificate of coverage, prior to the other person beginning work on the
project; and
b) a new certificate of coverage showing extension of coverage, prior to the
end of the coverage period, if the coverage period shown on the current
certificate of coverage ends during the duration of the project;

5) retain all required certificates of coverage on file for the duration of the project
and for one year thereafter;
6) notify the governmental entity in writing by certified mail or personal delivery,
within 10 days after the person knew or should have known, of any change that
materially affects the provision of coverage of any person providing services on
the project; and
7) Contractually require each person with whom it contracts, to perform as required
by paragraphs (1) - (7), with the certificates of coverage to be provided to the
person for whom they are providing services.
J. By signing this contract or providing or causing to be provided a certificate of
coverage, the contractor is representing to the governmental entity that all employees
of the contractor who will provide services on the project will be covered by workers'
compensation coverage for the duration of the project, that the coverage will be based
on proper reporting of classification codes and payroll amounts, and that all coverage
agreements will be filed with the appropriate insurance carrier or, in the case of a self-
insured, with the commission's Division of Self -Insurance Regulation. Providing
false or misleading information may subject the contractor to administrative penalties,
criminal penalties, civil penalties, or other civil actions.
K. The contractor's failure to comply with any of these provisions is a breach of contract
by the contractor which entitles the governmental entity to declare the contract void if
the contractor does not remedy the breach within ten days after receipt of notice of
breach from the governmental entity.
