<br />Structural Analysis of the Mira Flores No. I Reservoir, Golden State Water
<br />Society - Cal Poly Pomona
<br />Company, Santa Maria, CA. 2016. Structural Design Engineer providing
<br />Structural Engineering Institute
<br />professional engineering services for their 0.3 MG tank. The Mira Flores No. I
<br />(SEI) and Member of ASCE
<br />Reservoir is a rectangular semi -buried concrete masonry unit (CMU) water tank with a
<br />Office Location:
<br />capacity of 0.3 MG. It measures approximately 82-feet by 42-feet with a depth of 15-
<br />Irvine, CA
<br />feet. The reservoir has a wooden roof structure with skid mounted vertical turbine
<br />Total Years of Experience:
<br />booster station located on top of the roof at the rear of the tank. Recent inspection
<br />(2011) 8
<br />showed that the roof reservoir is failing and needs replacement. Concerns regarding
<br />Years with Tetra Tech:
<br />cracks in the concrete (cinder block) walls indicate that significant work will be
<br />(08/2011) 8
<br />required to reinforce the existing structure before re -roofing with a new aluminum roof
<br />and remounting the vertical turbine pumps.
<br />Sierra Madre Reservoir Rehabilitation, City of Glendora, Glendora, CA. 2015. Structural Design Engineer for the
<br />structural analysis of an existing 4 MG pre -stressed concrete reservoir constructed in 1964-65. The goal of the project was
<br />to bring the reservoir up to current standards. The main issues with the reservoir were a cracked and sagging concrete roof
<br />and cracking and spalling of exterior gunite and concrete interior walls, columns, and floor.
<br />Reynolds Ranch, City of Vacaville, CA. 2015. Structural Design Engineer for preliminary design report of a new pre-
<br />stressed concrete 0.53 MG reservoir and 490 grim booster pump station. The report evaluated alternative configurations,
<br />layout, operations, geotechnical conditions, seismic constraints, community impacts, and environmental issues. Pump
<br />station design incorporated a 50 hp two -pump booster station with motor control center, standby generator, and
<br />instrumentation. Permitting and assistance during bidding and construction was also provided.
<br />Structural and Seismic Evaluation of Storage Reservoirs, Montecito Water District, Montecito, CA. 2014 — 2015.
<br />Structural Design Engineer. Conducted condition assessments, inspections, investigations, performed testing and provided
<br />structural and seismic analysis of nine District water storage reservoirs with a combined volume of 11.5 million gallons at
<br />full capacity. The nine reservoirs included five rectangular predominately buried concrete reservoirs, three circular above
<br />ground concrete reservoirs, and one circular above ground steel reservoir. Deficiencies identified were presented with
<br />prioritized alternatives for repair(s), retrofit or replacement to ensure these facilities continued to operate and provide water
<br />following a seismic event. The District provides potable water to approximately 4,360 customer accounts that use an
<br />average 5.5 million gallons of water per day.
<br />Plant 224 Reservoirs and Pump Station, Suburban Water System, City of Whittier, CA. 2012 —2014. Structural
<br />Design Engineer for the design and construction of two rectangular, conventionally reinforced concrete reservoirs with a
<br />total capacity of 7.0 MG. The design included architectural treatment that features a street -front architectural fagade, as well
<br />as interior and exterior roof access stairs.
<br />Rawlings Reservoirs, City of Tustin, Tustin, CA. 2012. Structural Design Engineer for two pre -stressed, circular 3.5 MG
<br />concrete tanks located on a confined site, where space for excavation and material stockpiling during construction presented
