Key Resume


MAX L. CALHOON, P.E., S.E. Chief Geotechnical Engineer EDUCATION • Master of Science in Civil Engineering, Northwestern University, Chicago, 1952 • Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Iowa State University PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATION & REGISTRATION • Registered Professional Engineer in states of Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri,

Alaska, Minnesota • Licensed Structural Engineer in the state of Illinois • Life Member, American Society of Civil Engineers PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND Mr. Calhoon is the Chief Engineer for Associated Engineering & Technology, Inc.(AET) He is also the founder president of Applied Soil Mechanics, Inc., Naperville, IL. He is a registered professional engineer in nine states and is registered as a structural engineer in Illinois. He has published a number of technical papers and articles in technical society publications, and is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Mr. Calhoon has performed soils investigations on over 3,100 projects in Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota since forming Applied Soil Mechanics, Inc. in 1971. These projects include buildings of all types from small shopping centers and schools, to large industrial buildings, sanitary landfills, earth dams, subdivision planning and construction, bridges, sewage treatment plants, sewers, indoor tennis courts, determining causes of failures on various projects, elevated water tanks (more than 100), pavement design, grain storage silos, etc. He has done a considerable amount of consulting work for The Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, Michigan. He began as a soils engineer, primarily in the field of highway design and construction, from 1952 to 1963, being involved with the West Virginia Turnpike, the New Jersey Turnpike, the Illinois Toll Highway, and numerous state highway projects. In 1963 he became the Chief Soils Engineer for the Layne-Western Company in Aurora, Illinois. Layne-Western had offices in six mid-western states at that time, and Mr. Calhoon was involved with hundreds of soil mechanics projects throughout the mid-west. In 1968, he became Assistant Vice President and Chief Soils Engineer for a large consulting firm Westenhoff & Novick, Inc., Chicago, Illinois where he was in charge of all soils work on many interstate highway projects, including the Crosstown Expressway in Chicago, and the extension of the East-West Tollway from Aurora to Rock Falls, Illinois. Many industrial projects were handled, including soils consulting for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company on expansion projects in the eastern United States, and in Mexico and Africa (Zaire). SELECTED PROJECT EXPERIENCE On all of the following projects (unless otherwise stated) Mr. Calhoon was in charge of the soil borings, laboratory testing, mathematical analysis of the project, and preparation of reports.


Page 2 Professional Resume - Calhoon East St. Louis, IL: I-64 from State Route 3 in East St. Louis easterly for 5 to 6 miles, which included a highway, cut about 150’ deep through loessial soils. East St. Louis, IL 255 bridges from I-270 - I-64. Hennepin, IL: I-180 Spur over several miles of swamp land to the village of Hennepin, except for the bridge over the Illinois River. Alton, IL: F.A.P. Route 2: Designed 3 retaining walls to support roadway embankments. The free height of the walls varied from 13’ to 26’ and was being built over a deep layer of soft soils. One wall could be supported upon steel H-beam piles, while it was recommended to use a segmented reinforced type wall, (SRQ) for the other 2 walls. The estimated settlement of the backfill soil was in the range of 7” to 17”. The soils information for this project was furnished by IDOT. Aurora to Rock Falls, IL: Extension of the East-West Tollway 69 miles from Aurora to Rock Falls. Work included recommendations for the roadway, bridges, major culverts, and services area. This was one of the largest, if not the largest, geotechnical projects over performed in the State of Illinois by one firm. Chicago, IL: All preliminary geotechnical work for the proposed 22 mile Cross-town Expressway. Chicago, IL: All soil design work for the foundation of the bridge to extend Wacker Drive from Michigan Avenue to Lake Shore Drive. Jersey City, NJ: New Jersey Turnpike extension from Newark Airport to the Holland Tunnel through Jersey City, except for the bridge over Newark Bay. A large service area was built over a layer of deep peat by overloading and consolidation the peat. Camden, NJ: New Jersey Turnpike extension to connect the original NJ Turnpike to the Pennsylvania Turnpike from Near Camden, NJ to the Delaware River. Rockford, IL: Bridge to take Harrison Avenue over the Rock River. Bridge was about 1,000’ in length. Paddock Lake, WI: Highway 50 designed stone columns to support 1,500’ of embankment over a 25’ deep peat bog. Near Bristol, WI: Highway 50 designed wick drains to consolidate a 25’ deep layer of soft peat to support 1,000’ of new embankment. Franklin Park, IL: Underpass to take Grand Avenue under 6 or 8 railroad tracks. Unique retaining walls were designed using caissons to support the horizontal earth loads due to lack of ROW to build conventional retaining walls or earth reinforced type walls. Early use of composite bridge abutments and girders. Northwest Tollway (I-90): While not completely geotechnical work, Mr. Calhoon was in Charge of all construction for 55 miles of the Tollway starting with the bridge over the Fox River at Elgin to the Wisconsin State Line at South Beloit. West Virginia Turnpike: Analyzed dozens of landslides along the route of the Turnpike. Most of these slides were old existing natural slides of clay over shale bedrock that the roadway had to cut through, and re-activated the sliding forces. I-280 near Rock Island, IL: Soil and bedrock borings (only) for new bridge over the Mississippi River.


Page 3 Professional Resume - Calhoon Naperville, IL: Underpass to take Washington Street under the Burlington –Northern RR tracks. Naperville, IL: Underpass to take Naper Boulevard under the Burlington –Northern RR tracks, In addition to the remainder of the Boulevard project. Naperville, IL: Bridge to take Columbia Street over the Burlington- Northern RR tracks. Milwaukee, IL: Five miles of the Zoo Freeway including bridges and roadway. Des Monies, IA: A long bridge over a railroad yard with about 12 to 15 sets of tracks. Bridge length is about 1,500’. Stevens Point, WI: Underpass to take a major street under 4 or 5 railroad tracks. The excavation was in saturated sand with a high ground water table. Designed a permanent pumping facility to permanently de-water the underpass. Ottawa, IL: Four replacement bridges over I-80 in the old AASTHO test pavement area of the late 1950’s and early 1960’s. Aurora, IL: Farnsworth Avenue Bridge over Burlington-Northern railroad yard, about 1,500’ long. Lake Winnebigoshish, MN: Lake Winnebigoshish is formed with an earth dam across the Mississippi River in northwest Minnesota. The only borrow soil available was sand and gravel with which the embankment was built. A timber sheet pipe wall was driven down through the centerline of the embankment to act as a seepage cutoff. The dam and concrete spillway were built in about 1897 to 1900 by the U.S. Corps of Engineers. A country highway crosses over the top of the dam and over the spillway on a steel bridge structure. The Army Corps of Engineers wanted to replace the bridge over the spillway and also needed an analysis of the concrete spillway. They needed to know whether the spillway, with all of its retaining walls, some of which supported the bridge, was safe under current design standards, and if not, what they needed to do to upgrade the spillway structure. Mr. Calhoon did all of the geotechnical work on the spillway and found that many of the walls needed extensive repairs. Through the use of piezometers in the downstream slope of the dam the Corps determined that the timber sheet pile wall was allowing way too much seepage to occur and which could cause a slide failure of the downstream face of the dam. Mr. Calhoon did a slope stability analysis of the downstream face of the dam, which was supporting the roadway, and found that pressure relief wells were needed along the toe of the dam to provide a safe factor of safety for the dam embankment. Mankato, MN: The confluence of the Minnesota River and the Blue River occurs on the west side of the City of Mankato. The city has been protected for many years with flood walls and earth dikes. A railroad belonging at that time to the Chicago and Northwestern RR Co. was located on top of one the dikes along the Minnesota River and crossed over the Blue River on a bridge. The Corps of Engineers decided that the dikes and flood walls needed to be raised about 5’ to better protect Mankato. The existing railroad bridge had to be removed and a new bridge built at a 5’ higher grade. Mr. Calhoon did the geotechnical work for the bridge foundation as well as to design mattresses filled with riprap size stones to lay on bottom of the Blue River to prevent scour around the new bridge foundations. Raising the dike on which the RR track was located involved stability analyses and seepage evaluations which resulted in the need for pressure relief wells to be installed along the toe of the dike to prevent piping of the dike and resulting failure of the RR track. There were several existing concrete storm swears that would have 5’ of additional fill placed over them. Mr. Calhoon analyzed the sewers to determine if they would be safe with the new loading, using the Marston theory of loads on underground conduits. Mr. Calhoon has also performed many forensic investigations of foundation failures.
