We are pleased to submit this proposal and cost estimate for providing construction
observation and materials testing services for the above referenced project. This proposal and cost
estimate have been prepared based on our review of the project plans and specifications, the
preliminary construction schedule dated July 23, 2014, on -going conversations with the Structural
Engineers Mr. Jeff Hanson of Carl Walker, Inc. and Mr. David Clement of Garver, and our
experience with local projects of similar size and scope. GHBW submitted a geotechnical study for
the project on May 24, 2013 (GHBW Report No. 13-002).
We understand the project consists of a new 3-level, 236 space parking deck to be located at
the northwest corner of Spring Street and School Avenue. The parking deck will be post -tensioned
concrete with a slab -on -grade bottom floor. Liner buildings will be constructed on the north and
south sides of the new deck. The North Liner Building will be a three-story steel -frame structure
with a total of 16,406 sq ft. The South Liner Building will be a single -story structure with a plan
footprint area of 1,590 sq ft. Structural building loads will be supported by straight -shaft drilled
piers socketed into sandstone bedrock. Mass excavation will be required for the project. Numerous
cast -in -place concrete below -grade walls and retaining walls are planned to retain cut slopes.
Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. has a long history of providing quality geotechnical

ATTACHMENT A
Introduction
Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. is a geotechnical consulting firm located in Little Rock
(Headquarters) and Springdale, Arkansas. The firm was established as Grubbs Consulting
Engineers, Inc. in 1964 in Fayetteville, Arkansas and moved to Little Rock in 1966. In addition
to the main office in Little Rock, Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt also has a branch office in
Springdale, Arkansas.
The practice of Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. can be divided into four principal
phases: (1) geotechnical engineering analyses and design; (2) field instrumentation,
measurement and laboratory testing; (3) subsurface exploration; and (4) engineering services for
construction. The firm includes over 60 persons, including engineers; geologists; soils,
laboratory, and materials technicians; drillers; and support personnel. The engineering group
includes seven (7) Registered Professional Engineers and two (2) Engineer Interns.
Specialized Experience
Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. has performed geotechnical studies and presented
recommendations for design and construction of fossil and nuclear power plants, high rise office
buildings, hotels, warehouses, schools, major highway and railroad river bridges, earth dams,
retaining walls, levees, revetments, drainage structures, pumping stations, proposed and existing
landfill sites, hazardous waste sites including Superfund sites, and port facilities. The project
sites have been located in a variety of geologic regions including the Mississippi Embayment,
Ozark Mountains, Ouachita Mountains, Gulf Coastal Plain, and Loessial terrace areas.
Engineering studies for design of structures on or adjacent to rivers and lakes have included
analysis of local and ground scour potential, development of river channel and bank stabilization
and analysis of deep pile and pier foundation systems. Projects involving bridge design have
required engineering studies for large slurry pier and dredged caisson foundations and load
testing and selection of construction specifications and procedures. Marine projects include
studies on the Arkansas, Red, Ouachita, and Mississippi Rivers.
Investigations, studies and analyses frequently required detailed evaluation of groundwater
conditions, soil permeability and development of data for evaluating underseepage potential and
the design of seepage controls including slurry walls and dewatering systems. The studies of
groundwater related problems have involved the installation of both temporary and permanent
piezometers, groundwater monitoring wells, and various types of in -situ permeability tests.
Evaluation of the potential for seepage in rock strata has involved the performance of pressure
and flow tests using open and double packer methods.
Studies have also required analysis and monitoring of slope stability in fills and deep cuts for
highway embankment and for emergency spillway areas and development of recommendations
for treatment of potentially unstable soil or rock zones. Borrow area evaluations have consisted
of both test pit and sample boring investigation, determination of engineering properties and
development of fill placement and compaction criteria for both homogeneous and zoned
embankments of soil and rock fill design. Particular attention has been given to developing
methods of using available soil and rock materials from reservoir borrow areas and emergency
spillway cuts in the embankments to reduce the project cost.
Subsurface Exploration
To perform the necessary data gathering for evaluation of soil and geological conditions, our
firm has an equipment complement which includes one Failing 1500, two Mobile B-53's, one
SIMCO 2400, one all -terrain vehicle -mounted Mobile B-53 and one all -terrain vehicle -mounted
Hilyard Super rig. Special sampling and field testing has also been accomplished using down -
hole vane shear apparatus and cone penetrometers. Rock exploration capabilities include
standard NX and NQ,,,i coring capabilities.
Our exploration equipment is suitable for mounting on marine equipment. We have used
tugboats with barges moored with four -point anchor spread, spud barges, and sectional barges.
We have drilled in major streams, such as the Mississippi River and Arkansas River, lakes
including Beaver Lake and Lake Hamilton, and smaller bodies of water.
Laboratory Testing
Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. laboratory operations use state-of-the-art equipment
and methods for performing routine and specialized tests on soil and rock. Testing capabilities
include: water content, specific gravity, density, Atterberg Limits, grain -size from sieve analyses
and hydrometer, permeability using constant -head and falling head and flexible -wall apparatus,
shrinkage tests, maximum and minimum density tests, pin -hole dispersion, resistivity, pH and
chemical analyses, triaxial shear and direct shear tests, consolidation tests and Standard and
Modified Proctor moisture -density tests. Our Little Rock laboratory facility is periodically
inspected by AASHTO, the US Army Corps of Engineers, Center for Training Transportation
Professionals (CCTP), and CCRL. Laboratory certification information is attached.
Construction Services and Materials Testing
Foundation and earthwork constriction is characterized by the presence of a calculated risk that
soil and groundwater conditions have been fully revealed by the original foundation
investigation. This risk derives from the practical necessity of basing interpretations and design
conclusions on a limited sampling of the earth. The services of Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton &
Wyatt, Inc. extend into the construction phase of projects to aid in minimizing such risks.
By observing various phases of excavation and foundation construction, our field representative
is able to recognize both the expected and unexpected variations in subsurface conditions, to
interpret their significance, and to make prompt recommendations for action when needed.
Other construction services provided by Grubbs, Hoskyn, Barton & Wyatt, Inc. include advice
and assistance in the selection of fill materials; quality control of compacted fills; inspection during
construction of pile, piers, mat, and footing foundations; quality control and testing of concrete,
structural steel and asphalt. Often, for large projects, it is desirable to establish an on -site laboratory
so that quality control (QC) testing can more readily be coordinated with construction surveillance.
