AB - This report is designed to help public agencies in managing geotechnical risk on highway construction projects that are delivered using design–build. The guidelines provide five strategies for aligning the DOT’s and its design–builder’s perception of geotechnical risk as well as 25 geotechnical risk management tools that can be used to implement the strategies on typical design–build projects. The report will be of immediate interest to agencies and consultants for identifying and evaluating opportunities to measurably reduce the levels of geotechnical uncertainty before contract award, as well as equitably distributing the remaining risk between the parties during contract execution so that there is a positive impact on project cost and schedule.
