<br />URS <br /> <br />Michael R. Sharp, PE (cont'd.) <br /> <br />c <br /> <br />Senior Geotechnical Engineer, Advanced Wastewater Treatment <br />Plant, Hovensa Refinery, St. Croix, USVI: Provided oversight for <br />Hovensa of Contractor's static and dynamic pile testing program <br />implemented to develop foundation installation criteria for piles <br />supporting aeration and clarifying tanks as well as other ancillary <br />structures included in the construction of an advanced wastewater <br />treatment plant. Scope of services included oversight of testing program <br />as well as review and evaluation of testing data and pile installation <br />cntena. <br /> <br />~ <br />~ <br /> <br />Senior Geotechnical Engineer, SR 20 Over Apalachicola River, <br />FDOT District Three, Calhoun County, Florida: Directed <br />geotechnical engineering and construction monitoring services during the <br />construction of an approximately 1.5-mile long, two-lane highway bridge <br />(SR 20) over the Apalachicola River in north Florida. Foundations for the <br />structure consisted of pile bents each containing five, 30-inch sCluare <br />prestressed concrete piles, with 18-inch voids cast the full length of the <br />pile, as well as drilled shaft piers consisting of two shafts each. Shaft <br />diameters varied from five to six feet at thc approaches to the river and <br />from seven to nine feet at the bank and river piers, respectively. The <br />scope of work included directing and evaluating static and dynamic pile <br />load test programs, as well as a drilled shaft load test program that <br />consisted of multi-level Osterberg Cell load testing of fully-instrumented <br />test shafts along with lateral load testing of an instrumented 9-foot <br />diameter test shaft. Results of the load testing programs were used to <br />establish production pile and drilled shaft tip elevations and installation <br />CrItena. <br /> <br />c <br /> <br />Senior Geotechnical Engineer, Gulfstream Natural Gas, LLC, <br />Compressor Station 420 - Supplemental Geotechnical Services, <br />Palmetto, Florida: Directed program of supplemental geotechnical <br />studies to develop driven pile foundation design and construction <br />recommendations for various structures and equipment including <br />compressor units. In addition to field exploration, laboratory testing, and <br />geotechnical analyses, the project included a dynamic pile testing program <br />to develop production pile lengths and installation criteria for steel pipe <br />piles. <br /> <br />Senior Geotechnical Engineer, SR 71 and SR 79 Over Intracoastal <br />Waterway, FDOT District Three, Gulf and Bay County, Florida: <br />Conducted geotechnical engineering and construction monitoring services <br />for the replacement of hvo major highway bridges spanning the <br />Intracoastal \X1aterway in north Florida. Both projects included <br />construction of high-fill approach embankments on soft subsoils. <br />Structure foundations consisted of 18-,24-, and 30-inch, vertical and <br />inclined, prestressed concrete piles, some of which required compression <br />and tension load capacities. Scope of work included directing and <br />evaluating static and dynamic pile load test programs, monitoring and <br />evaluating approach embankment geotechnical instrumentation, and <br />preparation of recommendations for pile foundation installation and <br />approach embankment construction. <br /> <br />2 <br />
