Gentlemen:
On July 6, 2004, a representative of Scott, Cox & Associates, Inc. conducted visual spot
observations of the drilling and installation of the ten (10) inch diameter piers for the new
residence under construction at Lot 169, Registry Ridge 3rd, (1515 Sea Wolf Court), a
subdivision of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of these observations was to assure that the
piers were drilled correctly for the subsurface conditions encountered and to assure that the piers
were constructed according to the specifications on the foundation plan by Cobb Associates, Plan
No.:8126-Walk-out with 2-Car Garage.
The pier drilling operations encountered sandstone bedrock at depths of one (1) foot to ten (10)
feet below the base of various excavation levels. The piers were drilled a total minimum length
of twenty one (21) feet in basement areas and twenty five (25) feet in non -basement areas with a
minimum bedrock embedment of eleven (11) feet, whichever was greater. Groundwater levels
were encountered in the borings at depths of seventeen (17) feet to twenty five (25) feet below
the excavation. Casing of the borings was not required. Concrete was being placed with a
concrete pumper. Reinforcing steel was being installed in each pier.
As a result of our observations, it is our opinion that the construction of those piers observed
were in general conformance with the plans and specifications. If you have any questions about
our observations or this report, feel free to contact our office.
Sincerely,
SCOTT, COX & ASSOCIATES, INC.
