Estudillo Callan Parking Garage CSA — Parikh Consultants 2 December 20, 2010 Analysis Geotechnical observations of ground conditions and foundation installation are required critical structural components of the construction phase. Parikh Consultants specializes in geotechnical engineering. The firm was previously selected to study the option of reusing existing foundation components. When this was determined unfeasible, Parikh was retained by the lead design consultant to provide geotechnical data to the design team for the new foundation system. Because Parikh was a member of the design team and is already familiar with the project, its services through the foundation construction period will provide valuable assistance to the City in completing a quality project.
