<br />Firm Core Competencies
<br />Willdan's expertise in the core disciplines necessary to provide on -call services to the City of Santa Ana is presented herein.
<br />Survey and Right -of -Way Engineering
<br />Willdan provides a wide range of surveying, mapping, and right-of-way engineering services for major transportation
<br />improvements, street widenings, sewer and water improvements, urban redevelopment, final and parcel maps, and legal
<br />descriptions. Field services provided by Willdan and/or our subconsultants include conducting boundary surveys and/or
<br />research, topographic base mapping, right-of-way easement stakeout, construction staking, and site surveys.
<br />Geotechnical Engineering
<br />Willdan provides a full gamut of geotechnical studies, engineering geology, and materials testing and inspection, including
<br />subsurface exploration, geologic and seismic hazard assessment, soil testing, engineering and pavement analyses and
<br />designs, construction support (soils and materials testing and inspection), and special studies. Willdan's soils and materials
<br />testing laboratory is licensed by the City of Los Angeles and by Caltrans, and participates in the AMRL and CCRL proficiency
<br />programs.
<br />Pavement Engineering/Management
<br />Willdan has been at the forefront for many years in developing new and more cost-effective approaches to rehabilitating
<br />pavement structures of deteriorated streets. Design specifications have been tested and refined for various processes using
<br />methods and materials proven to be economical and effective in their application. Through our roles as city engineer for
<br />various agencies, Willdan receives important feedback regarding the most efficient construction materials and methods to
<br />implement for each type of condition encountered, actual performance of each different rehabilitation method over extended
<br />periods — what is sustainable, and field conditions discovered during construction that warrant special contract provisions.
<br />Civil Engineering
<br />Willdan's civil engineers offer a full complement of roadway and highway design, including feasibility studies (site
<br />evaluation/grading/earthwork), project study and project reports, final design plans and specifications, erosion control and site
<br />remediation, storm water management, NPDES compliance, utility conflict analysis, ADA analysis and compliance, value
<br />engineering analysis, cost estimating and scheduling, and constructability review. Willdan provides assistance during bidding
<br />and provides engineering support during construction.
<br />Structural Engineering
<br />Willdan provides complete structural engineering support for design, analysis, inspection, and evaluation of structural systems
<br />such as bridges, sound walls, retaining walls, and buildings. Our specific bridge expertise encompasses an extensive working
<br />knowledge of all related agency criteria and methodology for design of new bridges, bridge rehabilitations, and bridge
<br />widenings. We are current on the latest requirements for seismic analysis and design procedures. In addition, our staff has in-
<br />depth knowledge of various federal, state, and local requirements for preparing project development documents, design and
<br />construction documents, and approval processing. In addition to their design expertise, our structures staff has also had
<br />tremendous success obtaining HBP funds.
<br />Traffic Engineering
<br />Willdan's traffic engineers serve as contract city traffic engineers or provide traffic engineering services throughout California.
<br />They are experts in conducting traffic surveys and data collection, investigating motorist and vehicle characteristics, identifying
<br />and making recommendations on traffic safety and utilizing traffic laws and enforcement to determine traffic signal timing, and
<br />evaluating highway operations. Willdan prepares traffic engineering designs to warn, requlate, and guide traffic. We develop
