From September 2010 to June 2011 (10 months) Intern @ CH2M HILL 2008:By the summer of 2008 the paving of the runway was in its final stages. My initial task was to track the progress of the runway demolition using gps and Auto CAD and report the progress to the company. During the demolition I also plotted a 50 ft x 50 ft grid with the gps to measure the height of the grade along the entire runway as demolition was occurring. This grid would be used to measure how much dirt was being moved by sub contractors prior to concrete paving. Before paving would start the electrical, drainage and dirt work subcontractors would have more earth work done to replace drainage or strengthen soft spots in the the ground and my gps tracking of volume of dirt moved would be used to verify quantities. Once pavement had begun on the runway it was my job to check and mark spots on the paved surface that needed to be repaired. From June 2008 to August 2008 (3 months) Edwards Air Force BaseIntern @ CH2M HILL 2007:I worked with a fellow intern in designing and presenting a charity project to commanding officers of Edwards Air Force Base. The project involved updating the training facilities for soldiers preparing for the middle east. The original training facilities were permanent tents that had been used for years, but had become dilapidated and obsolete over time. These tents also were only supported by a foundation consisting of pallets. The base was in the process of ordering new semi-permanent tents, but they needed a more solid foundation to place the tents on. CH2M Hill was in the process of determining the proper mix of concrete to repave the runway at the base and so they offered to make batch sizes of concrete to accommodate the the foundations. The proposal we presented would include 3 concrete platforms; 2 larger platforms for the larger tents and 1 slightly smaller platform for the smaller sized tent. The project budget was about $14,000 and would use equipment that was onsite from the CH2M Hill/IHC joint venture. Ultimately the project was halted due to the legal aspects of gifts to the base. Law stipulates that any gift presented to the base must be signed off by the US government if the value exceeds $10,000.During this time I was assisting IHC keeping records and compiling data on tests they were doing on various mixes of concrete to be used on the runway. These tests would gauge compression strength and bending strength over 3, 6, 9, 15, 30, and 90 days. This data was put into various spread sheets according to varying proportions of mix concentrations in the concrete. The concrete that followed the desired curing and strength schedule would be selected for the paving. From June 2007 to August 2007 (3 months) Edwards Air Force Base
