SECTION 3: WORK STATEMENT
Subtask 2: Asphalt inspection services
Output: Twining will provide laydown inspection and
compaction testing of the asphalt paving activities throughout the overlay project. If the City requires observation during grinding operations, we will provide resources during this time, as well. The inspection team will observe and document all pavement activities at the City’s request and in accordance with the project specifications. Plant inspection will be conducted simultaneously throughout the paving day and samples of the asphalt will be obtained at coordinated intervals from both the plant and the field and transported to our lab for all the necessary testing. Plant inspection will ensure that production of asphalt is being conducted per the project specifications and meets Greenbook and Caltrans standards.
Subtask 3: Asphalt Coring and Testing
Output: Twining will provide a technician to core the asphalt once per 250 tons and transport the cores to the laboratory for timely testing to calculate the daily compaction of the asphalt material being placed.
Task 3: Materials Testing During Overlay Project
Subtask 1: Laboratory testing of asphalt material
Output: Twining’s certified laboratory will be responsible for providing testing of the asphalt material to ensure it meets the specifications of the project. The material will be tested for asphalt content, gradation, moisture content, density, stability, air voids, and sand equivalency (raw aggregate at the plant). Acceptance of the material is typically based on asphalt content, gradation, and stability testing. Core testing will be provided daily to ensure that asphalt compaction requirements are being met.
Task 4: QA Documentation and Reporting
Subtask 1: Daily and final quality assurance reporting
Output: Twining’s project manager will be responsible for reviewing daily field and laboratory activities and preparing reports and providing all documentation to the City’s project manager.

Note that hard copies of reports will be sent only to governing jurisdictions that mandate them. All other parties will receive reports electronically. The administrative fee above will receive reports electronically. The administrative fee above will be increased by 1% if additional hard copies of reports are requested.
Minimum Charges (Inspection and Technician Personnel Only - Other Personnel Charged on Portal to Portal Basis) 2-Hour Minimum: Inspector arrives at jobsite, no work to perform. 4-Hour Minimum: 1 to 4 hours of inspection
8-Hour Minimum: Over 4 to 8 hours of inspection
Regular Time
The first 8 hours worked Monday through Friday between 5:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
Time and One-Half (All Types of Inspection)
All shifts will be billed based on the time and date of their start. Any increment past 8 hours through 12 hours worked Monday through Friday and the first 12 hours on Saturday.
Time and one-half will also be charged for the first four hours before 5:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m.
Double Time (All Types of Inspection)
All shifts will be billed based on the time and date of their start. After the first 12 hours worked Monday through Saturday, all day Sunday, holidays, and the first Saturday following the first Friday in June and December. After the first four hours worked before 5:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. Holidays are New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.
Meal Period
When personnel are required by their duties to work more than five consecutive hours without a one-half hour uninterrupted meal period, one half hour at double time rate will be charged in addition to any applicable overtime for actual hours worked.
Shift Differential (Applies to Regularly Scheduled Shifts Only) A $1.00 per hour shift differential premium will be charged for all inspection hours that fall outside of the 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. time period. Twining will require 48-hour notice along with the General Contractors approved shift letter prior to beginning a shift that will include hours falling outside this time period. Should this notice not be provided, all work performed on that shift will be billed at the applicable overtime or double time rate.
If three shifts per day are required, the first shift will be billed at the standard rate. The second shift shall be billed in accordance with the previous paragraph.
The third shift shall be billed at 8 hours for the first 6 1/2 hours worked and appropriate overtime or double time for all hours thereafter.
Travel Time and Mileage
For projects outside a 50-mile radius from the nearest Twining facility, $0.70 per excess mile to and from the project will be charged for inspectors and technicians.
Other than small tools, whenever project related equipment is required to be transported to and from the project site, time and mileage for inspectors and field technicians will be billed on a portal to portal basis. For all projects, $0.70 per mile rate and applicable travel time will be charged portal to portal for engineers, consultants, supervisors, and laboratory technicians from the laboratory to the project site and return.
For work locations located 100 miles or more from Twining, travel time will be charged at the relevant rate for inspectors and technicians in addition to a subsistence allowance.
Weekend Sample Pick-Ups
In order to be in strict conformance with testing standards, it may be required that weekend pick-ups be performed (e.g. concrete specimens cast on Friday must be picked up on weekend in order to be in conformance with ASTM C31 requiring specimens to be moved to their final curing location within 48 hours of casting.) Applicable charges for weekend work will apply when this is required. Should these charges not be authorized, Twining will not be liable for any negative consequences.
Reimbursable Expenses
Parking, air fare, car rental, food, lodging and project specific software/applications (e.g. PlanGrid, Procore, etc.) will be charged at cost plus 20% per processed invoice, unless provided by client.
Project Specific Documents
Costs presented assume that client will provide project specific documents (plans, specifications, submittals, RFIs, etc.) for all inspection personnel. Should project specific documents be provided electronically through a "for fee" service, the client will be responsible for providing access and paying any fees for the service.
Project Site Facilities
Prices quoted assume that initial curing facilities for test samples that comply with relevant test standards and project requirements are provided by others. In addition, prices quoted assume that work/desk space for inspection staff are provided by others. Additional costs will apply should Twining be required to provide such facilities.
Subsistence
Subsistence on remote jobs will be charged per quotation.
Laboratory Testing Hours and Expedited Testing
Please note that laboratory testing will be billed on an hourly basis for non-standard tests. If testing is required to be performed on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, or before 5:30 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays, an additional hourly charge with a minimum of one hour will be applied for the laboratory technician. 1.5 x regular test rate will be charged for rush testing.

General Conditions, Continued
Limit of Liability
Client agrees to limit Twining's aggregate liability to all entities for alleged or actual errors and omissions in the performance of its professional services under this agreement to $50,000.00 or the fees actually paid to Twining, whichever amount is greater. Higher limits may be available by quotation.
Certified Payroll
Certified payroll will be provided, upon request, at an additional charge of $150.00/month. Fee applies to every month that certified payroll must be submitted regardless of whether or not services were provided for any given month.
Final Reports Required by Jurisdiction
If a final report or affidavit is required, we must first review all inspection and testing reports and clear up any unresolved issues on these reports. These issues will typically require approval by the engineer or architect of record. This process can take several weeks or just a day, depending on the number and complexity of the issues. Cost for final reports will be billed hourly.
Terms of Payment
Fees charged are for professional and technical services and are due upon presentation. If not paid within 30 days from date of invoice, they are considered past due and the maximum legal finance charge will be added to the unpaid balance.
In addition, should the client require that invoices be submitted through a web based or electronic system, the client will be responsible for all costs associated with the use of the system.
A 3% fee will be applied for payments processed by credit card.
All invoice errors or necessary corrections shall be brought to the attention of Twining within 15 days of receipt of invoice. Thereafter, customer acknowledges invoices are correct and valid. Twining reserves the right to terminate its services to a customer without notice if all invoices are not current. Upon such termination of services, the entire amount accrued for all services performed shall immediately become due and payable. Customer waives any and all claims against Twining, its subsidiaries, affiliates, servants and agents for termination of work on account of these terms.
In the event of any litigation arising from or related to any agreement to provide services whether verbal or written, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non- prevailing party all reasonable costs incurred, including staff time, court costs, attorney's fees and all other related expenses in such litigation. Additionally, in the event of a non- adjudicative settlement of litigation between the parties or a resolution of dispute by arbitration, that same process shall determine the prevailing party.
Hold Specimens
All "hold" specimens are charged at the applicable test rate whether tested or not.
Specimen Sampling and Disposal
Twining samples materials used in construction in accordance with standard practices, methods, codes and relevant project requirements. Representativeness of sampling and same accuracy of testing are subject to the same probabilistic and precision limitations as governing standards, codes and project technical provisions.
Should samples be provided by others Twining cannot warrant or guarantee that material is representative of material that is or will be used in actual construction of the project.
Specimens will be discarded after testing unless Twining has been notified prior to testing that the customer wishes to retrieve the specimens or storage arrangements are made.
Oversize Specimens
An extra charge will be made when test specimens require more than one person to handle because of size or weight.
Elevated Work Platforms
In the event an elevated work platform is required to safely complete our inspections, the client must provide safe access, including a trained and certified operator, to Twining inspection and testing personnel. Should Twining be required to supply an elevated work platform, we will contract with a qualified vendor and the markups shown above will apply. 6 Twining, Inc. | City of Santa Clarita 44
