I rms. /r) contraction.Figure 3 shows details of a semi-integral,fully integral,and NON-INTEORAL ABUTMENT WITH VERTICAL JOINTS non-integral abutment configuration. A shallow foundation is more rigid and does not allow thermal expan- sion/contraction(the way a deep foundation does)when it is made Figure 3 fully integral with the superstructure.As a result,shallow foundations are not typically used in fully integral configurations.Because the geo- technical report recommends the use of a shallow foundation system, SEH will consider a semi-integral configuration for the replacement bridge.This allows for thermal movement,but protects the bridge ele- ments from the deterioration at vertical joints.If a deep foundation system is used.a fully integral configuration is most likely the best solution. 12 WELD COUNTY-BRIDGE26/25A REPLACEMENT PROJECT 2.

The proposed schedule is highly dependent on timely reviews and approvals by both FRICO and UP.Splitting the design schedules of the bridge and the railroad approach paving will allow us to achieve these approvals as quickly as possible. 2014 - - - 2015- - •Tasksand'DeYverables - - - — ' Iryrl Mat' :Jun July: Aug 1 Sep Oct Nov Dec • Jan Feti ,.

SEH provided structural design services and the plan sheets associated with the structural elements of the prnjecf. During construction,they helped with shop drawings review and site inspections. The SEH bridge design group addressed every issue in a timely manner and provided plans and docu- ments of very high quality. Structural issues involved with this project Itiere handled and documented properly,and solutions were cost-effective.Their efforts resulted in plan sheets which were easy to follow and required very little change during construction.

Relford, Public Works, T. Jiricek, General Services Director Brief description of the problem/issue: The Public Works Department provided a Request for Proposals for engineering services for the design of Bridge 26/25A replacement project. On March 17, 2014, four requests for proposals were provided to the consultants that received the highest scores from the selection committee after reviewing 9 RFQ's that were submitted. Weld County staff reviewed and scored the proposals following the typical procedures of a qualifications- based selection process. Four consultants scored the highest as a result of a combined score which included interviews conducted on March 28, 2014. Weld County General Services Director, along with the other members of the selection committee, recommended the consulting firm of Muller Engineering and received authorization to negotiate from the BOCC via pass-around on 03/29/14. Public Works Engineering was not able to come to acceptable terms with Muller Engineering due to their proposed fee amount of$185,600, which is 30% of the overall project costs. Negotiations were then started with the firm that had placed second during the selection process, Short Elliot& Hendrickson(SEH). A negotiated fee amount of$98,916.40, which is about 16% of the overall project costs, has been submitted by SEH and they have signed an Agreement for Professional Services. It is our recommendation to award the bridge 26/25A design contract to SEH in the amount of $98,916.40. What options exist for the Board: Option 1. Authorize execution of the Agreement for Professional Services which has been signed by SEN. Option 2: Direct staff to try to further negotiate with the other consulting firms shortlisted. Recommendation: Option 1: Authorize execution of the Agreement for Professional Services with SEH Based on the latest cost estimate the total project costs will be$612,000.
