Write Winning AEC Proposalsin Hours, Not Weeks

AI purpose-built for AEC firms that actually understands your RFPs, your projects, and technical requirements

Proposal Software That Works Like Your Team

From Go/No-Go decision to final draft, CivCore supports every stage of the proposal process

RFP Analysis & Risk Assessment

Instantly compare RFP requirements with your firm's qualifications and flag project risks before you commit resources.

AI-Assisted Proposal Writing

Draft high-quality content leveraging your past proposals, internal standards, research data, and the RFP itself to produce complete, review-ready sections.

Team Assembly & Resume Optimization

Tailor resumes and project sheets specifically for each RFP, ensuring your team's qualifications shine through.

End-to-End Compliance Coverage

Auto-generate a submission checklist with each item linked directly to the RFP specification. Address every requirement.

Finally, AI That Thinks Like an AEC Pro

Generic AI thinks a bridge is just another project. Ours knows the difference between a cable-stayed span and a precast girder, understands AASHTO design criteria, and ties your Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) plan back to your DOT's requirements. It doesn't just generate text – it reasons like an engineer.

Site-Specific Research Summary

Bald Mill Creek Bridge Replacement on Jose Basin Road

Generated in 4.8 minutes

Project Overview

Structure Type: Single span steel I-girder (recommended)

Bridge Length: 116'-9" span, 27.5' width

Design Standards: AASHTO LRFD 10th Edition + Caltrans SDC 2.1

Seismic Hazard: PGA = 0.18g, Soil Profile Type B

Foundation Type: Spread footings on granitic bedrock

Federal Funding: 80% available through Bridge Investment Program

Geotechnical Findings

[Foundation]Sierra Nevada granitic bedrock: RQD 65–85%. Allowable bearing capacity on rock ≈40 ksf (factored). Unconfined compressive strength ~140 MPa (20,000 psi). Competent bedrock encountered at 1.5–2.5 ft below grade.
[Hydrogeology]2018 Geotechnical Memo: Recommend spread footings on granite; micropiles only for steep walls. Groundwater measured at 80–200 ft depth. Exfoliation joints dip 22–26° downstream—no planar sliding anticipated.
[Excavation]Fresh granite requires controlled blasting or hydraulic hammer. Weathered zones may permit mechanical digging with a breaker, but expect blasting for hard rock removal.
[Seismic]Site on Soil Profile Type B (rock). Liquefaction risk negligible. Caltrans ARS PGA ≈0.18 g. Nearest active San Andreas segment ~80 km away; minimal amplification expected.

Environmental & Regulatory

  • Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle (VELB): Federally threatened species. Critical habitat designation for Fresno County. Section 7 consultation required. 1:1 to 3:1 mitigation ratios for elderberry shrub removal.
  • Tree Anemone (Carpenteria californica): Extremely rare endemic species. Only 7-8 known wild populations in Sierra Nevada foothills. Avoidance-focused mitigation strategies essential.
  • Clean Water Act Permits: Section 404, 401, and 1602 permits required. Multi-agency coordination needed. Processing timelines: 6-18 months depending on complexity.
  • NEPA/CEQA Compliance: Enhanced integration opportunities under SB 149 expedited review. Joint NEPA/CEQA procedures available for qualifying infrastructure projects.
  • Foothill Yellow-legged Frog: Potential habitat present. Western pond turtle also possible. Avoidance measures to be included in construction specifications.
  • Sierra National Forest Coordination: USFS land adjacent to project. Minimal impacts expected. Exemption from USFS review process likely if impacts remain minimal.

Materials & Design Updates

  • 2.5" deck cover in freeze-thaw environment
  • Epoxy-coated rebar in deck and barriers
Steel
  • Weathering Steel (UWS)
  • 30% lower lifecycle costs vs painted
  • 120-year service life potential
  • Minimal maintenance requirements
Standards
  • AASHTO LRFD 10th Edition
  • Caltrans SDC 2.1 (displacement-based)
  • Updated seismic design methodology

[USGS]Updated regression equations + climate change: Flow increases 10-16% above 2018 baseline. Manning's n = 0.040 for granitic channel. Climate multipliers 1.15-1.25 recommended for 100-year design flows.
Scour Risk: High debris transport potential in granitic channels. 50% contingency addition to calculated scour depths recommended.

[TRC]2018 traffic analysis: Low traffic volume but critical connectivity. Single-lane bottleneck with 25-mile detour makes keeping existing bridge open during construction essential. Staged construction required.
  • Transportation Logistics: Jose Basin Road narrow and winding. Girder delivery challenging - may require modular construction approach or roadway improvements for transport.
  • Concrete Supply: Outback Materials in Auberry provides structural concrete. 10-minute transport time meets placement requirements. Local aggregate sources available.
