Specifically, G3 has provided consultation services for the LA County “Cool Pavements” pilot program. This has consisted of pre-placement tasks such as document review, site pavement evaluation, pre-placement laboratory testing, and derivation of cool pavement performance evaluation criteria. G3’s services were carried out through construction, consisting of placement inspection and testing during cool pavement application, and pavement evaluation after placement consisting of field testing, evaluation reporting, and final specification preparation. The specifications prepared by G3 are by LACDPW on their projects. G3 also performs multiple pavement evaluation and structural section design services at the Brackett Field Airport in La Verne. The scope for this task order includes performing a pavement condition assessment, destructive pavement coring and geotechnical evaluation, and non-destructive heavyweight deflectometer testing.
