2 Guidelines for Managing Geotechnical Risks in Design–Build Projects development of the geotechnical risk profile for the design–build project. This report details proven methodologies that permit the department of transportation and its industry partner to align perceptions of geotechnical risks and perhaps their business objectives early in the delivery of a design–build transportation project both before and after contract award.
