Re: Alameda Point Piers 1-3 Condition Assessment Proposal Dear Ms. Strauch,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit a proposal to provide a condition assessment of Alameda Point Piers 1-3.

Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH) has significant experience at Alameda Point, and would be honored to return to perform this important work in such a thriving Bay Area development.

Founded in 1956, SGH is a national engineering firm with more than 750 professionals, including over 100 engineers in our Oakland office. Our Marine Engineering group, based in Oakland, has extensive experience with inspections, materials testing, engineering assessment, design, and repair of marine and waterfront structures. We have worked in the Alameda waterfront for more than a decade, such as the Alameda Grand Marina, Ballena Isle Marina, Alameda Marina Redevelopment, Alameda Landing Development, Alameda Shipways Development, and Encinal Terminal Development. Most importantly, in 2016-2017, SGH successfully completed the project of inspecting, testing, analyzing, and rehabilitating of Alameda Point Piers 1, 2, and 3. Our experience with this project has given us in-depth knowledge and insight of the condition and structural behavior of these piers.

We will take a three-step approach to the upcoming condition assessment of these piers, just as we did in the 2017 project. We will complete the inspection, analysis, and recommendations for repair and rehabilitation of the piers to preserve their service performance and prolong the service life. Due to our experience conducting the 2017 condition assessment and structural evaluations, we are best positioned to assess the condition changes and deterioration of these piers since that time, and make the optimum repair and preservation recommendations.

Our proposed team and key personnel are essentially those who completed the work in 2017, providing an established track record and continuity of service that the City of Alameda can rely on. All of the key personnel presented in this proposal have availability and interest in working on this project to further develop SGH's relationship with the City.

If our team is selected, we will accept the City’s standard service provider agreement. This proposal includes all of the tasks in the scope of work in Exhibit C of the RFP without exception.

I will be the contact person responsible for the proposal. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you have questions or need additional information.

Sincerely yours,

Alameda Marina Shoreline
Redevelopment ALAMEDA, CA
Alameda Marina is a 530-berth marina with a 44-acre backland. Built through the 1940s through 1970s, the seawalls and wharf had exceeded their useful life and show varying signs of distress. As part of the waterfront mixed-use redevelopment, SGH assessed the seawall and wharf condition and developed repair, retrofit and replacement options to help protect the marina and extend its operational life.

SCOPE | SOLUTIONS
With 4,000 ft of shoreline and varying site conditions, including abandoned dry docks, buried structures, and environmentally contaminated and hazardous soils, the marina required a multifaceted redevelopment approach. SGH conducted a condition assessment and evaluated each segment of the shoreline to assess its stability and earth retention.

We developed repair, retrofit and replacement options to protect the waterfront assets against earthquakes, and storms, including sea-level rise. We helped the client transform their previously industrial site into prime real estate. Highlights of our work include:
| Inspected and classified the various segments of the shoreline based on visible and forecasted deterioration
| Evaluated the geo-structural slope stability, including the shoreline soil-structure analysis and the influence of adjacent foundations on the seawall systems | Extended the service life of the timber wharf by retrofitting piles and replacing deteriorated beams and decking
| Helped obtain shoreline rehabilitation permits from regulatory authorities, including the City of Alameda, Army Corp of Engineers, and the San Francisco Bay Area Conservation and Development Commission
| Coordinated with the developer and contractor to select the most cost-effective rehabilitation solution
| Developed detailed construction sequencing for shoreline retrofits and replacements | Provided on-site construction support and inspection services for marine and subgrade work

Port of San Francisco

WATERFRONT RESILIENCE PROGRAM
(WRP) SAN FRANCISCO, CA
The Port of San Francisco (POSF) manages 7.5 miles of shoreline along the bay, including the three-mile long Embarcadero Seawall extending from Fisherman’s Wharf to Oracle Park. The POSF is overseeing the Embarcadero Seawall Program to create a more sustainable and resilient waterfront. In 2017, POSF selected a team led by CH2M Hill to manage a ten-year program to systematically mitigate risks to their waterfront facilities and infrastructures due to earthquakes, flooding, and sea-level rise. SGH has served as the lead structural consultant on the WRP team through all phases of the program, including the Multi-Hazard Risk Assessment (MHRA), Seismic Solutions Strategies Study (S4), Needs Assessment Report (NAR), and Alternatives Analysis Report (AAR).

SCOPE | SOLUTIONS
SGH provided specialized structural engineering services to comprehensively assess seismic vulnerabilities, develop mitigation strategies, and evaluate alternatives for the selected Early Projects. Highlights of our work include:
| MHRA: Completed a seismic vulnerability study of 117 marine structures and 108 port-owned buildings along the northern waterfront. This included nonlinear analysis of over a dozen marine structure model types to develop a suite of over 70 seismic fragility functions. This effort resulted in an estimate of probabilistic losses for over 200 port assets, an understanding of key vulnerabilities, and a method for the Port to prioritize seismic mitigations.
| S4: Studied the feasibility of several high-level mitigation concepts through MHRA; interpreted results; and performed additional structural analyses. | NAR: Performed a site-specific assessment for several of the Port’s selected Early Projects, including Pier 9, Pier 15, and the Ferry Building. In this task we identified the problems, opportunities, objectives, and constraints for seismic mitigation. We developed preliminary engineering solutions to meet the project objectives, and recommended project alternatives for further study.
| AAR: Performed an alternatives analysis for the Early Projects, including Pier 9, Pier 15, the Ferry Building, and Wharf J9. In this task we used nonlinear finite element analysis to further develop the NAR alternatives, develop cost estimates, and perform an alternatives analysis. This effort resulted in recommendations to the Port regarding the alternatives to progress to conceptual design.

Approach
diver who is experienced in the inspection and repair of concrete and steel piles. All diving will be performed by commercially certified divers in accordance with OSHA
regulations and the Association of Diving Contractors (ADC) guidelines governing safe diving practices.

L3’s principal inspection team members have a
combined 71 years of underwater structural condition
assessment experience. Jonathan Boynton, P .E., served
as the underwater inspection team leader during the
2016 Inspection and will be the primary inspection team leader for this assessment. Michael Grams, EIT, was a
primary inspection diver during the 2016 Inspection. Both individuals are intimately aware of the complexities of the site and will carry forward the experience and expertise gained during the previous inspection. This is important to this project because it not only provides the highest quality inspection due to their intimate knowledge of the piers from their experience with the 2016 inspection but also ensures the ability to quickly recognize load paths, failure modes, and the structural significance of what they observe.

This ability greatly enhances the technical value of the inspection, while saving both time and money. They know what information in the current condition is meaningful and important in comparison with the 2016 conditions of the piers.

L3’s commitment to safety and quality cannot be
overstated. A comprehensive dive safety plan including
emergency procedures and diver recovery procedures
will be developed and adhered to. L3’s topside dive stage and dive support vessels include custom fabricated diver recovery systems for fast and efficient diver recovery in case of emergency. Rigorous safety training, including
emergency preparedness drills, are a cornerstone of L3’s commitment to safety.

Real time, digital note taking ensures efficient and
consistent recording of field data throughout the course of the inspection and eliminates the possibility of
transcription error during post-processing.

The underwater inspection includes the standard scope of work for Routine Inspections as described in the RFP and in accordance with American Society of Civil Engineers
(ASCE) Waterfront Facilities Inspection and Assessment
Manual of Practice (MOP 130), or equivalent. Three levels of inspection efforts are to be undertaken and are summarized as follows for clarity:
| Level I Inspection Effort - A Level I inspection effort is essentially a 100% visual/tactile inspection of all of the accessible steel piles, concrete piles, sheet piles, and concrete infill panels from the mudline to the
high-water elevation. This inspection will determine
whether any piles of the piers are grossly damaged.

Approach
Our approach to this project is divided into the following principal tasks:

1. Above water and below water inspections

2. Material testing

3. Structural analysis and evaluation

4. Repair/retrofit recommendations and cost estimate

5. Report
Task 1 - Above- and Below-water
Inspection

1.1 ABOVE WATER INSPECTION
SGH will provide a two-person inspection team to conduct a full site structural inspection at each pier site. The above- water inspection includes a 100% visual inspection of all accessible structural components above the high water
line. For Pier 1, this includes the above water portions of the king piles, sheet piles, pile caps, deck, curbs, mooring and berthing hardware. For Pier 2 and Pier 3, this includes the above water portions of the piles, pile caps, top and bottom surfaces of the deck, curbs, mooring and berthing hardware. SGH will provide a Coast Guard-approved boat
and kayak with well-trained operator to visually survey the structures by water. We will inspect, measure, and
document steel corrosion and other damage to concrete
structures. Prior to inspection, the team will review the 2017 field inspection notes and confirm any pier condition changes since 2017 during the inspection.

The underdeck inspection of Pier 3 presents unique
challenges to the above water below deck inspection team.

The spacing and layout of the piles, as well as the fender system, may prevent access via a small boat to some areas of the pier. In order to accomplish a complete inspection of these areas, the inspection team will be supplemented with a qualified inspector swimming around each pile and the inspector will report the findings to a second team member positioned nearby in a small craft who can accurately
record any deficiencies found.

SGH recognizes that Pier 1 and Pier 3 are currently being used by tenants. It is important that our inspections, both above and below water, have no adverse impact of the
berthing of vessels and use of the piers. Both SGH and L3 Engineering divers have extensive experience working
successfully in operating piers with berthing vessels and deck loads.

1.2 BELOW WATER INSPECTION
SGH has teamed with L3 Engineering (L3) to conduct the
underwater portions of the inspection and will direct the efforts of a three-person underwater inspection team
consisting of at least one registered Professional Engineer- Docusign Envelope ID: 675FF1C6-E9F0-4FAE-8263-94CA205CE97D Docusign Envelope ID: 50025197-E874-4812-9C25-1173085E606B 32 Alameda Point Piers 1, 2, and 3
Inspection, Testing, Analyses, and Reporting
15 15
Approach
Task 2 - Material Testing
One of the key findings in our 2017 study was that different portions of the piers are experiencing different levels of deterioration due to chemical attack. We believe this is due to variance in the concrete mix and materials used during construction and has significant impact on the remaining life of the structures.

Based on our experience and knowledge from the
inspection and evaluation of Alameda Point Pier No. 3 in 2017, we will strategically select the location of concrete coring on the piles as required by the contract. A total of 45 cores will be from 15 piles in Pier 3 at the locations that are strategically selected by the responsible SGH engineers in consultation with the City Staff. The cores will be stored in wooden boxes and shipped to SGH's Applied Science &
Reserach Center, in Waltham, MA.

SGH has maintained its own laboratory since the founding of the company in 1956. It has advanced test equipment
and highly qualified full-time lab professionals to perform routine and sophisticated tests of construction materials such as concrete, masonry, coating, metals, polymers,
plastics, glass, wood, roofing and waterproofing products.

All of the concrete tests required in the RFP , including petrographic examination, scanning electron microscope, chloride profiling, and compressive strength tests, will be conducted by professional material scientists and
petrographers. This proposal includes resumes of our
senior petrographer, Sidney Carter, and director of the laboratory, Norman Perkins. A concrete test report will be prepared to document all test results, chemical and
petrographic analyses, and conclusions from the tests with regards to the nature and extent of concrete conditions and deterioration of the piles at Pier 3. We will provide an assessment of the long-term potential deterioration of the concrete piles in the future. The concrete test report will be prepared in a similar manner as our 2017 test report for Pier 2.
| Level II Inspection Effort - A Level II inspection
effort involves the removal of marine growth and close
inspection of the exposed area at three elevations on
the piles and concrete panels. Level II cleanings will be in accordance with the recommendations of MOP 130
– Section 3.1.3.
| Level III Inspection Effort - A Level III inspection
effort involves additional non-destructive and / or
destructive testing of a structural element and is
typically performed at select Level II locations. This
will be conducted at Pier 1 at the frequency specified
in the RFP Exhibit C. The locations of the Level III
inspections will be selected by SGH working with
the L3 inspection team leader. At Pier 1, Ultrasonic
thickness measurements will be taken on steel piles
and sheet piles as specified in RFP Exhibit C. At Pier 3, 4-inch diameter by 8-inch-long concrete cores will be
taken from 15 piles above the water column, at mid-
water, and 3 feet below the mudline. Core holes will be filled with marine grade repair grout.

Approach
Task 4 - Repair Recommendations
Based upon the inspection results, engineering analysis and structural evaluation, SGH will make recommendations for repairs and maintenance of the pier deck, piles, mooring and berthing hardware, and other structural components
as necessary to meet the MARAD lease requirements,
and meet any functional requirements of the pier as
requested by the City. Our recommendations will include a repair prioritization tailored to specific uses of the piers, identifying relative urgency for all structural deficiencies and non-structural deterioration.

SGH will evaluate various repair schemes, including
installation of new piles (of similar or alternate materials), repair of piles with jacketing, encasement, or wraps,
and splicing of existing piles to new piles. Repair of deck damage will be engineered based on results of the material testing. All damage identified in the inspection will be addressed with suitable repair schemes and supported by engineering analysis and calculations.

All repair schemes will be reviewed amongst our team for construction feasibility, including specific insight from marine contractor CS Marine, to provide the most efficient repair strategy satisfying engineering requirements and restoring the life of the structures. The recommendations will include an order-of-magnitude budgetary cost
estimate for any repair and modification of the piers, and prioritization for budgetary needs of the City of Alameda.

The goal is to achieve satisfactory service performance and long service life of the piers with an effective funding plan.

Task 5 - Report
The pier condition assessment report will include
inspection reporting and notes, material test reports, types and rate of structural deterioration of each pier since the 2017 inspection, structural analysis and evaluation of the pier structures and mooring hardware, pier condition plan drawings, repair recommendations (methods, size and
configuration), and ROM cost estimates for repairs and
modifications.

The results of the above water and below water inspection will be presented in a report that will include both above water and underwater photographs of the conditions
observed, field measurements such as concrete crack and spall sizes, ultrasonic measurements of steel members, as well as a general plan with representative cross-sections of the structures inspected. The report will provide a
summary of the observed conditions, a list of deficiencies, and a general engineering evaluation. To the best extent possible, we will compare the 2025 inspection results with the 2008 and 2017 condition assessments, and document
the condition changes since 2008. Based upon the
comparison, we will provide an estimate of the deterioration rates in various structural components.

Task 3 - Engineering Analysis and
Evaluation
In the 2017 condition assessment project, the SGH team
performed the geotechnical evaluation of the piers site and the ship mooring and berthing analyses in accordance with UFC 4-159-03. The loads from the same mooring
and berthing analysis will be used to evaluate the piers for operating lateral loads with load combinations in
accordance with UFC 4-152-01. Structural capacity checks will be performed against the load criteria per UFC 4-152- 01 and operating criteria in UFC 4-152-01. The vertical and lateral pile capacity will be evaluated on the basis of field inspection results, geotechnical evaluations, and structural evaluations with due consideration of the current conditions of the piles. Structural capacity of the deck will be evaluated using three-dimensional finite element analysis with due consideration of deteriorated conditions of the piles.

The piers will be evaluated for both overall global loads as well as local loads at each representative mooring point. For evaluation of the lateral load capacity of the Pier 2 and Pier 3 structures, we will establish a finite element model with nonlinear soil springs based on geotechnical engineering analyses of soils in various areas and at various depths.

The analyses will provide insights on the critical load path, redundancy in the pier structure, safety margin, and structural deficiency in various structural components of the piers.

Since Pier 1 is a gravity bulkhead structure, we will perform stability analysis and lateral load analysis using the analysis programs SLIDE and PYWall, based upon our current
assessment and previous engineering evaluation in 2017.

For evaluation of the local mooring capacity of the structure and mooring hardware, we will perform structural analysis using refined finite element models with due consideration of the current conditions of the mooring structures.

Some individual pile deterioration may not directly result in critical failure of the pier deck or pier structure. Structural checks will be performed assuming deterioration in
selected piles, which will provide the basis for prioritization of the pile and deck repair sequence. Furthermore,
durability of structural components will be estimated,
based upon material testing and field inspection.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance
Quality is the cornerstone of SGH’s practice, and the best project approach can fall short if the deliverables lack quality. “Committing to get the job done right” from all levels of our staff, is why SGH is so successful. It starts with building an appropriate project team with the ability and staff to complete the necessary work.

Our internal practices for quality will permeate this project from start to finish. Our QA/QC Principal manages projects by utilizing the following protocol:
| At the onset of the project, prepare a Project
Information Sheet designating qualified managers, key
staff, and the quality reviewer.
| Perform all work with complete objectivity and high
ethical standards.
| Engage other qualified personnel to oversee work
outside of one’s own expertise.
| Establish the objectives and scope of the project by
consulting with the client.
| Manage cost controls and monitor expenditures.
| Inform the client regularly about work progress,
schedule, and budget.
| Clearly understand and apply the criteria that apply to each project.
| Summarize, in writing, observations, decisions,
instructions, and agreements made during field
trips, conferences, and telephone conversations with
individuals outside SGH.
| Confirm important oral instructions and agreements
via a follow-up letter.
| Organize reports consistently.
| Review calculations, reports, and drawings for
accuracy.
| Perform a quality review before submitting the work
product to the client.

The ultimate strength analysis of representative sections was performed using the US Navy developed program ULTSTR. The results in the form of ultimate strength capacities can be used as quick guidelines for maximum allowable still water bending moments in salvage situations. (With Herbert Engineering Corp.)
I Passenger Ship Ultimate Strength, Ship Structures Committee, Alameda, CA. Project engineer involved in part of a Ship Structures Committee-sponsored study, responsible for project evaluating a large passenger ship for damage stability and ultimate strength of the hull girder after damage and flooding. Special considerations needed to be made with the special structural design of cruise ships, with very light deck structure. As a result, the ships are designed to always operate with a hogging hull girder bending moment with the upper decks in tension. This project studied the possibilities of damage and flooding that might cause the upper decks to see compressive loads. Analyses were done to evaluate the ultimate strength of the hull girder under these conditions. (With Herbert Engineering Corp.) I Chevron Shipping, Metal Fatigue Analysis of Tanker Stiffener Connections, San Ramon, CA. Project engineer for an assessment of existing fatigue damage of bottom stiffener connections on two older single-hull tankers operated by Chevron Shipping. An analysis and design of fatigue repairs and new connection details to extend the fatigue life of the details were also provided. (With Herbert Engineering Corp.)
