<br />Victor Ramirez, PE, SE
<br />Task Manager — Building Rehab & Structural
<br />Seismic
<br />Mr. Ramirez has more than 38 years of structural engineering design
<br />experience with special emphasis in the design of water storage/water
<br />containment and water conveyance related structures. Mr. Ramirez's
<br />experience includes reservoirs, water/wastewater treatment plants,
<br />booster pump stations, flow control facilities, pressure reducing stations
<br />and pipelines. His experience also includes the design of a wide variety
<br />of other types of structures, including buildings, bridges, and storm
<br />drainage related structures. Mr. Ramirez is thoroughly knowledgeable in
<br />all types of construction, including reinforced concrete, masonry,
<br />structural steel, and timber.
<br />EXPERIENCE
<br />Well No. 32, City of Santa Ana, Santa Ana, CA. Structural Engineer for
<br />the design of the Well 32 rehabilitation project. The project involved the
<br />rehabilitation of the well facility and converting it to an above ground CMU
<br />block control building (housing mechanical and electrical rooms). The
<br />structural components include designing the two buildings within Morrison
<br />Park and providing support for the water main as it traverses under the
<br />Santiago Creek Bridge along Bristol Street.

<br />Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility Sodium Hypochlorite Storage Tank Replacements, West Basin
<br />Municipal Water District, El Segundo, CA. Structural Engineer for the replacement of four cylindrical, fiber -
<br />reinforced plastic (FRP) chemical storage tanks within the District's Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility
<br />(ECLWRF). The work included calculations and design for the foundation of the tanks, which are each 29,200
<br />gallons and will contain 12.5% sodium hypochlorite.
<br />Groundwater Reliability Improvement Program Advanced Water Treatment Facility, Water
<br />Replenishment District of Southern California, Pico Rivera, CA. Lead Structural Engineer for a new 13,000
<br />acre-feet per year of fully advanced treated recycled water. Treatment process includes influent facilities, MF/UF
<br />system, RO system, UV Advanced Oxidation system, post-treatment/stabilization/disinfection, product water wet
<br />well, and brine/waste disposal connection.
<br />Sierra Madre Reservoir Rehabilitation, Glendora, CA. Responsible for the preparation of a seismic
<br />evaluation of an existing 4 MG potable water storage tank. This concrete structure was originally constructed in
<br />1964-65. The tank structure consists of a prestressed circular concrete wall shell, concrete columns and a
<br />concrete roof. The purpose of the evaluation was to determine the improvements needed for the reservoir to
<br />meet current Code (AWWA D110-13) seismic design and to determine the extent of the sagging and cracking at
<br />the existing roof deck. Safety and reservoir appurtenances were evaluated for OSHA compliance (ladders and
<br />hatches) and security (hatches and vents). Conceptual designs and costs for the recommended improvements
<br />were provided in a preliminary design report.
<br />Memorial Park Reservoir, City of Santa Monica, CA. Structural Project Engineer for a feasibility report for two
<br />buried concrete tanks, a 5 MG reclaimed water tank and a 1 MG potable water tank, and a buried concrete
<br />pump station. The report focused on minimizing disruption to the park facilities while maximizing the storage
<br />capacity of the tanks. The preparation of the report involved the investigation of construction of conventionally
<br />reinforced rectangular tanks and prestressed circular concrete tanks, and the use of cantilevered and tie -back
<br />shoring.
<br />Irvine Desalter Project, Irvine Ranch Water District, Irvine, CA. Structural Project Engineer for a project
<br />which includes a 6,000 square foot tilt -up concrete RO filtration building, several partially buried cast -in -place
<br />concrete clearwell pump stations, a buried cast -in -place concrete well vault, 270 If of 26 foot high tilt -up concrete
<br />free-standing fence wall, and several chemical containment areas with steel framed canopies.
