He has extensive experience in <br />evaluation of geotechnical engineering design and failure analysis. He <br />is an expert in seismic hazard analyses, non -linear analysis of structures <br />using earthquake time histories, liquefaction evaluations, slope stability <br />analyses, and foundation investigations. He has managed geotechnical <br />investigations to provide recommendations for design as well as forensic <br />investigations for litigation support. He has developed geotechnical <br />recommendations for deep and shallow foundation systems, pavement <br />design, remedial grading, shoring for deep excavations, and mitigation <br />of expansive soils and landslides. <br />Long Beach Airport Parking Structure I Long Beach, CA <br />Principal -In -Charge. Mr. Kim provided technical oversight and <br />developed value -engineered foundation recommendations that enabled <br />supporting the 5-level parking structure on spread footings instead of <br />costlier pile foundations. <br />Westminster Police Station Parking Structure I Westminster, CA <br />Principal - In- Charge. Mr. Kim provided geotechnical services for the <br />City's new Police Department Parking structure. The four-story structure <br />is located within a zone that is susceptible to liquefaction with a very <br />shallow historically high groundwater table. In addition, compressible <br />clay was encountered below the site. Driven pre -cast concrete piles will <br />support the proposed building. <br />LA Live Parking Structure I Los Angeles, CA <br />Staff Team. Developed and managed the geotechnical investigation and <br />geotechnical engineering support program for design and construction <br />of the 4-million square foot development adjoining STAPLES Center and <br />the Los Angeles Convention Center that features entertainment venues, <br />restaurants, retail commercial and residential spaces, television and <br />radio broadcast studios, and concert spaces. <br />Santa Monica Clock Tower Building I Santa Monica, CA <br />Project Manager. Developed and managed the geotechnical <br />consultation program for this seismic rehabilitation project, which <br />included a geologic/seismic hazards evaluation, development of site - <br />specific FEMA 356 BSE-1 and BSE-2 response spectra, and updated <br />foundation design recommendations. <br />City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency <br />Sant.
