The proposed project involves renovations to Terminal 2 and Boarding Area D to convert the former ten gate international terminal to a fourteen gate domestic terminal.
Client: San Francisco International
Airport
Location: San Mateo County, CA
AGS was tasked by Turner Construction Company to conduct a geotechnical study. AGS submitted a report which included geotechnical engineering conclusions and recommendations related to subsurface conditions, geoseismic hazards, earthwork, dewatering, shoring, foundations, lateral earth pressures, resistance to lateral loads and construction monitoring for the proposed project. The conclusions and recommendations presented were based on the data from previous geotechnical investigations, and available geologic information for the site vicinity. The purpose of the study was to evaluate subsurface conditions and develop final site-specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations for design of the proposed improvements.
Following the AGS geotechnical study, AGS civil/structural team was tasked to prepare bid documents, including improvement plans and specifications, for the land-side facility improvements at Terminal 2. The project required a site investigation, topographic survey, and review of as-built drawings to locate existing features, establish existing grades, and identify limits of demolition for the proposed renovation improvements. AGS completed horizontal and vertical design for the layout of new curb, gutter, drainage facilities, curb ramps, ADA compliant path of travel, and sidewalk widening for the passenger drop-off areas adjacent to Terminal 2 and the island platform opposite the terminal building. In addition, AGS developed a finished surface grading plan for the new concrete topping slab of the elevated roadway structure and prepared a striping plan for the proposed lane reconfiguration, crosswalks, and ADA passenger drop-off area.
