<br />Chien -Chang Chen, PhD, PE, GE
<br />Supervising Engineer
<br />Chien -Chang Chen specializes in developing foundation recommendations for
<br />the design and construction of pipelines, transportation, power supplies,
<br />residential development, schools, and commercial structures including the
<br />mitigation of soft ground and liquefaction by ground improvement. He offers
<br />leadership in the provision of geotechnical interpretation, analysis, the
<br />development of geotechnical solutions and design production, including project
<br />management and business development. Chien -Chang has worked on a wide
<br />variety of engineering projects in the United States, New Zealand, and Taiwan
<br />including as a geotechnical engineer for street improvements, street
<br />preservation, on -call engineering services, drain projects, design services, and
<br />inspections.
<br />Relevant Project Experience
<br />City Trunk Line South — Unit 6 (CTLS-6), Studio City, California, Los
<br />Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). Project Engineer.
<br />Performed geotechnical field investigation and prepared geotechnical baseline
<br />reports for the CTLS-6 project. The project involved relining the existing 51-inch
<br />inner diameter, riveted steel pipe with a carbon fiber -reinforced polymer (CFRP)
<br />lining, removal of the flow meter, and relocation of the flow control station using
<br />cut -and -cover method. Our field investigation task involved drilling and sampling
<br />of 5 borings to 50 feet bgs along the pipeline alignment, laboratory testing on soil
<br />samples, preparation of geotechnical baseline reports, review of design drawings
<br />and specifications, and scheduling.
<br />Century Trunk Line — Unit 1 (CTL-1), Inglewood, California, Los Angeles
<br />Department of Water and Power (LADWP). Project Engineer. Performed
<br />technical review of shoring system designed by the Contractor and construction
<br />inspection for the CTL-1 project. The project involved involve installation of
<br />approximately 9,700 lineal feet of 48-inch diameter, earthquake resistant ductile -
<br />iron pipe using both cut -and -cover and tunneling methods.
<br />Paseo Del Mar (White Point) Permanent Restoration Project, Los Angeles
<br />Geotechnical Engineering Division (LAGED). Lead Geotechnical Engineer.
<br />Led and performed a geotechnical detailed design for a single span bridge (380
<br />feet long) and associated site civil work for the Paseo Del Mar (White Point)
<br />Permanent Restoration Project in San Pedro, California, following the 2011 White
<br />Point landslide. Detailed design involved in interpretation of design parameters
<br />for soils and rock, seismic assessment to determine design peak ground
<br />acceleration and liquefaction potential, foundation design and ground
<br />improvement for the proposed bridge, mitigation of the existing slopes by deep
<br />soil mixing and ground anchors and the reinforced soil slopes located in approach
<br />fill.
