I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. Location
The Timberline Housing (hereafter referred to as “PROJECT”) site is located at
3008 South Timberline Road Fort Collins, Colorado 80525, adjacent to Timberline Church.
The PROJECT lies within the Tract A and Lots 1, 2, and 5 of the Timberline Church P.U.D.
specifically, in the West half of Section 29, Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal
Meridian, City of Fort Collins, Larimer County, State of Colorado.
The PROJECT is bound to the north and east by apartment complexes associated with the
Rigden Farm development, to the south by the Foothills Channel and Rendezvous Trail, and to
the west by Timberline Church and parking lot. Adjacent major roadways around the PROJECT
site include South Timberline Road to the west and Custer Drive to the north. Refer to the
vicinity map below and in the Appendix.
Figure 1 - Vicinity Map, NTS
B. Description of Property
The PROJECT area site consists of approximately 10 acres of disturbed area. The existing site
consists of native grasses, existing asphalt drives and parking areas, concrete sidewalks, an
existing water quality and detention pond, and a drainage swale. The current Timberline Church
property drains to the southeast and into a drainage swale or detention pond which then
releases through two outlet structures into the Foothills Channel. The site drains through curb
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING

and gutter, storm inlets and storm pipe, or overland flow. The PROJECT is located within the
Foothills Master Drainage Basin.
According to the “Geotechnical Engineering Report” produced by Terracon Consultants, dated
May 5, 2021, the existing soils consist of silt or clay with varying amounts of sand and gravel
over about 4 to 12 feet of sand and gravel. Bedrock was found at depths of approximately 17 to
21 feet below grade. Groundwater was encountered in all of the test borings at about 12 to 13
feet below existing site grades. A copy of the Geotechnical Report can be found in the Appendix.
A USDA NRCS web soil survey of the PROJECT site states that the soils consist mostly of Nunn
clay loam Type C Hydrologic Soils. The HSG C is the predominate soil type across the site and
was used for runoff calculations. Soils with an HSG of C have a very slow infiltration rate when
thoroughly wet and therefore have high runoff potential. A copy of the web soil survey is
referenced in the Appendix.
C. Floodplain Submittal Requirements
The Flood Insurance Rate Map Number 08069C1000F Panel 1000 of 1420, dated December 19,
2006, shows that the proposed development is not located within the 100-year floodway area.
The FEMA FIRMETTE Map is in Appendix A.
According to the City of Ft Collins, the Foothills Channel is considered a High Risk Floodway. The
floodway limits remain within the channel. Because the channel and existing detention pond are
hydraulically connected, there is a possibility of back flow into the pond when the Foothills
Channel WSEL is higher than the WSEL in the detention facility. A map showing the Ft. Collins
Floodway is included in Appendix A.
The proposed design is in accordance with the “City of Fort Collins Floodplain Review Checklist
for Development Review Submittals.”
II. MAJOR DRAINAGE BASINS
A. Major Basin Description
The PROJECT lies entirely within the Foothills Basin which is generally bound by Taft Hill, Ziegler,
Horsetooth, and Drake Road. A Master Plan for the Foothills Basin was completed in 1981. In
1994, the Pinecone PUD Overall Drainage Plan divided the PROJECT site into two Major Basins,
59 and 60. In this report Basin 60 discharged into the channel undetained, while Basin 59 was
slightly detained. Total releases from the site were limited to 97 cfs.
In 1999, the site was further developed as outlined in the referenced Final Drainage Report.
Water quality was provided my means of an extended detention facility. Improvements limited
discharge from the detention facility to 20 cfs.
The 2007 Final Drainage study included major developments to the site. This report utilized a
“beat-the-peak” methodology to establish a new allowable site release of 82 cfs. The 1999
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 3 | 12
Report also included an additional outfall to Foothills Channel and provided an overall site
impervious design value based on future development plans.
The PROJECT lies within several sub-basins developed in the 2007 Report. The affected basins
(A2, A3, B3, B4, C2, D1, D2, and E) were eliminated and replaced with new basins (P1 thru P14,
and D1). The proposed development has an overall site imperviousness (Basins 59 and 60)
below the designed imperviousness values established within the 2007 report. Therefore, the
“beat-the-peak” methodology utilized to design the detention pond remained applicable.
Enhanced water quality features were integrated into the design as required by City of Fot.
Collins water quality standards.
Between the 2007 Report and the PROJECT, the accepted vertical datum has changed from
NGVD29 to NAVD88. This results in a vertical increase of 3.19’ for all elevations referenced in
prior reports.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The total PROJECT site is approximately 10 acres. The proposed development will include the
construction of seven multifamily residential units, private drives and parking lots, and utility
infrastructure necessary to service the proposed buildings. Additionally, drainage facilities
designed to improve Stormwater Quality are proposed for the site in accordance with Chapter
7- Water Quality of the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual.
The PROJECT design includes the modification of the extended detention pond as well as the
drainage swale that provides detention and treats water quality for the 100-year storm for the
added impervious area with the proposed PROJECT development.
Various design criteria were changed throughout the development of the site. Where
comparisons were made, like criteria was utilized to maintain consistency. The following
assessments were performed:
1.Comparison of existing and proposed imperviousness: Criteria effective (surface
impervious values) to the 2007 report were utilized when comparing the proposed project
to the established design of the site.
2.Pipe, Inlet, and Conveyance capacities: current criteria with the Rational Method.
3.Proposed Water Quality and LID Design: current criteria with the Rational Method.
4.Assessment of the As-Build Detention Facility: current criteria with EPA SWMM.

IV. PROPOSED DRAINAGE FACILITIES
A. General Concept
The proposed drainage basins located on the PROJECT site consist of pavement, proposed
building roof, landscaped areas, sidewalk and paved walking paths, paved parking lots, an
extended detention pond and a drainage swale. The north quarter of the site drains to the
drainage swale. The remainder of the site drains to the extended detention pond. About 75% of
the PROJECT site drains to proposed LID systems before discharging into the detention pond and
then discharging offsite into the Foothills Channel. The remaining 25% of the PROJECT site
discharges directly to the existing detention pond where water quality is treated and stored
before discharging offsite into the Foothills Channel.
The balance of the existing site remaining undisturbed will maintain existing drainage ways to
the existing detention pond prior to discharging offsite to the Foothills Channel. The proposed
flow conditions are not expected to change drastically from existing conditions.
The developed imperviousness of the site was compared to the originally designed
imperviousness. To establish the existing condition, areas that are currently fully developed
were assigned surface type areas (pavement, gravel, roof, or landscaping) based on current
aerial imagery. Areas of future/proposed development (from the 2007 report) were assigned
surface areas similar to the 2007 Report. These areas were compared to the design values
tabulated in the original design report.
It was concluded from this analysis that the overall site was originally calculated at a complete
developed composite imperviousness of 75.5%. This is the imperviousness found in the 2007
report and utilized for the Water Quality Volume calculations. A composite imperviousness of
80% was utilized in the SWMM analysis of the detention pond in the 2007 report as well.
Because portions of the proposed work assessed in the 2007 study, an updated “projected-
developed” imperviousness was also calculated which accounted for the as-built condition of
the site thus far, the current “projected-developed” developed composite imperviousness was
calculated at 73.3%. A summary of these values is shown below in Table 1.
To determine the developed composite imperviousness following completion of the PROJECT,
modified basins were replaced with proposed basins and an overall imperviousness was
calculated. The result was 72.5%, slightly below the current “projected-developed” state of
73.3% and well below the originally design values for water quality and detention of 75.5% and
80%. Detailed impervious calculations are included in Appendix B.

Existing Drainage
In the existing condition, stormwater runoff generated on site is conveyed via overland flow to
existing storm inlets or curb and gutter. The inlets then flow through existing RCP storm sewer
which drains to both detention ponds. The project site that doesn’t flow into storm sewer flows
as overland flow directly into the detention pond. Table 2 below provides a summary of the
existing site imperviousness. Refer to Appendix E for the 2007 Drainage plan and the current
Existing Drainage Plan. Peak flows for existing basins were not calculated as part of an existing
site analysis.

Proposed Drainage
Runoff generated from the proposed development is conveyed via overland flow towards storm
inlets, curb and gutter, and roof drains before being conveyed to rain gardens, swales,
underground filtration systems, or the existing detention ponds. The rain gardens, grass swales,
and underground filtration systems will provide water quality treatment for the site and the
detention ponds will provide detention and water quality treatment. Runoff from this site is
ultimately tributary to the Foothills Channel. Refer to Appendix E for the Proposed Drainage
Plan and basin delineation. See Table 3 for a summary of the proposed and existing basins.
Note that the overall site imperviousness shown in the rational calculations is higher that the
“projected-developed” imperviousness calculated above. As indicated above, the rational

C. Detention Basin/ Outlet Design
Per the 2007 report, the detention pond consists of three hydraulically connected sections:
swale, north, and south ponds. For the remainder of this report, the term Pond will imply the
composition of these three sections. Recently surveyed topography was used in the
development of the existing pond’s stage-storage curve.
The design approach (Beat the peak) of the detention pond swale was not changed. Minor
infilling into the pond will occur with the PROJECT resulting in decreased storage capacity. This
reduction is offset by enlarging the pond in different areas. The existing and proposed state-
storage curves are shown in Appendix C along with a comparison of the two. The net result is a
pond with slightly more storage capacity from the as-built condition.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 7 | 12
The detention pond was analyzed using EPA SWMM Version 5.1. Basin information from the
2007 Report and current Fort Collins Drainage Criteria was utilized to develop sub catchments
SWMM. Basins 59 and 60 were assumed to be at a fully developed imperviousness of 80%,
exceeding the current PROJECT effective imperviousness. Both outlet structures were modeled
in SWMM using recent survey information. Only detained release curves were developed for the
outlet structures as culverts as the releases from the water quality orifice plates are minor
compared to the outlet pipes. An updated peak storage volume and discharge was determined
by routing inflows through the SWMM model. Detailed EPA SWMM documents are included in

Peak Release (cfs)62.13 82
D. Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) Design
The PROJECT site was designed using the Four Step Process outlined in the Fort Collins
Stormwater Criteria Manual. The PROJECT site utilizes a combination of rain gardens
(bioretention), grass swales, underground filtration systems, and extended detention basins to
provide water quality treatment for the PROJECT.
The PROJECT does not use any permeable pavers; therefore the 75/25 rule applies. 75% of the
modified surfaces will be treated by approved LID Systems while the balance can be treated by
standard practices. Most of the PROJECT area requires surface modification as both the surface
type and flow patterns change. However, the improvements associated with the PROJECT within
the private road and existing parking lot north of the PROJECT within Basins A1, B1, P13, and P14,
consist of utility installation and pavement replacement. The flow patterns and surface types in
these areas do not change. After discussion with City Staff, those basins are not included in the
overall modified surface total and do not contribute to the 75/25 LID requirement.
Approximately 75% of the site WQCV was treated using rain gardens, grass swales, or
underground filters while the remaining 25% of the site was routed to the existing extended
detention basin. A summary of the system distribution is shown below in Table 5. Refer to the
Appendix C for detailed rain garden, grass swale, and new volume for the extended detention
basin calculations.

E. Low Impact Development (LID) Design
A variety of Low-Impact-Design (“LID”) features were incorporated into the drainage design for
this project. The following are descriptions of the LID features used in the PROJECT design:
Bioretention (Rain Gardens): Rain gardens have been designed in accordance with the design
and construction detailing for bioretention systems from the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria
Manual. There are 2 proposed rain gardens located throughout the PROJECT site. A 12-hour
drain time was used when designing the rain gardens and all the rain gardens drain into the
extended detention basins where it is then eventually discharged offsite. Several proposed
drainage basins drain directly to the rain gardens via overland flow. No more than two drainage
basins are directed to one rain garden. The rain gardens will be designed with one foot of water
quality ponding depth. An inlet of weir will be provided in the rain gardens for an 100 Year
overflow path that discharges directly into the extended detention basin. Underdrain piping will
be provided within the rain garden as well as underdrain cleanouts as required in the Manual.
Refer to Appendix C for detailed rain garden calculations.
Grass Swale: Grass swales have been designed in accordance with the Grass Swale Best
Management Practice Fact Sheet and Design Spreadsheet from the MANUAL. There is one
proposed grass swale on the PROJECT site. This swale was designed using UDFCD UD-BMP
spreadsheet and followed the CRITERIA and MANUAL. This facility will provide LID/Filtration
treatment only, while the WQCV is still contained in the Extended Detention Basin. The site was
graded to drain to a low point where the grass swale started and then drains freely into the
existing drainage swale to the east with a slope of the grass lined swale at 0.50%. The Grass
Swales will be densely vegetated trapezoidal channels with low-pitched side slopes and a
relatively broad cross sections which will convey flow in a slow and shallow manner, thereby
facilitating sedimentation and filtering while limiting erosion. Calculations for the grass swale is
included in Appendix C.
Underground Filtration: The underground stormwater BMPs have been designed in accordance
with the design and construction detailing for underground infiltration/filtration systems from
the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. There are three proposed locations where these
underground structures will be used throughout the PROJECT site. These were chosen because
of space and grading constraints in the specific locations. StormTech chambers were used as a
basis of design chosen due to their minimal cover requirements. Refer to Appendix C for
detailed rain garden calculations.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 9 | 12
Treatment Train: The use of a treatment train was used to provide multiple BMPs in series. The
use of these LID techniques allows for more consistent treatment of runoff and provide
redundancy if one component isn’t functioning as intended. A flow chart and table of the
treatment train is provided in the Drainage Plans found in Appendix E.
F. Drainage Easements/Maintenance Access
All the drainage easements and maintenance accesses are shown on the drainage plans located
in Appendix E. Drainage and utility easements will be executed with separate instruments
following any replating.
V. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
The drainage design of the project is in compliance with the following criteria:
1. Article VII, Stormwater Utility, City of Fort Collins Municipal Code, latest revision
2. City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual, latest revision (“hereafter referred to as the
“CRITERIA”).
3. “Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual” latest revision (hereafter referred to as the
“MANUAL”).
B. Previous Studies
This drainage report has taken into account the results and recommendations of the previous
PUD developed in 2007 for Timberline Church. It has also taken into account the results and
recommendations of the previous drainage report developed as part of the 2007 PUD.
C. Four Step Process
The PROJECT site was designed to Minimize the Directly Connected Impervious Area (MDCIA)
and follows the guidelines established in the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual and
the MANUAL. The purposed of implementing this Four Step Process is to reduce runoff volumes,
treating the WQCV, stabilize streams and implementing long-term source controls, and pertains
to the management of smaller, more frequently occurring events. The Four Step Process used
for our PROJECT is outlined below.
Step 1: Employ Runoff Reduction Practices
Currently the site contains open area as well as paved asphalt and concrete surfaces and a
existing extended detention pond. The development of site landscaping throughout the site will
help slow runoff and encourage infiltration where possible.
Minimize Directly Connected Impervious Areas (MDCIA): Drainage design for the proposed
residential apartment buildings will discharge roof drain downspouts across pervious
landscaped areas to encourage stormwater infiltration where possible.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 10 | 12
Extended detention pond: All of the proposed and existing runoff will continue to be routed to
the existing extended detention basin which is grass lined with a small trickle channel in the
center to collect the discharge from storm sewer into the extended detention ponds.
Step 2: Implement BMPs that provide a WQCV with slow release.
The WQCV for the proposed developed site will mostly be treated through proposed rain
gardens, swales, and underground filters located throughout the PROJECT site and the
remainder of the WQCV for the site will be treated in the existing extended detention pond. The
rain gardens, underground filters, and extended detention ponds will release the WQCV at the
rates required by the CRITERIA and MANUAL. The extended detention pond will provide water
quality treatment as well as detention.
Step 3: Stabilize Streams
One of the major drainage channels for the Foothills Basin is located along the southeast side of
the PROJECT site. Impacts on the downstream drainageway will be minimized by routing
developed flows through LID Systems and controlling the release rate out of the pond to existing
flows.
Step 4: Implement Site Specific and Other Source Control BMP’s
The proposed residential site development will implement Stormwater Management Plans
including proper housekeeping practices and spill containment procedures as a separate
document when the Final Drainage Report is submitted. Trash enclosures are shown on the
construction plans and are labeled. All permeant features will be kept out of the detention basin
features.
D. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
As such, the PROJECT will provide 100-year detention per the approach approved in the 2007
Report and additional water quality treatment systems will be provided for the modified areas.

E. Hydrological Criteria
The proposed drainage system is designed in accordance with the CRITERIA and the MANUAL.
Per the CRITERIA, the 2-year and 100-year design storm events were as the minor and major
storm events, respectively. The Rational Method was used to estimate the minor and major
storm runoff generated in the proposed conditions. Impervious and runoff coefficients were
obtained from the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. Soils were classified as NRCS
soil Type C for calculations. Refer to the Appendix B for detailed calculations and design aids.

I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. Location
The Timberline Housing (hereafter referred to as “PROJECT”) site is located at
3008 South Timberline Road Fort Collins, Colorado 80525, adjacent to Timberline Church.
The PROJECT lies within the Tract A and Lots 1, 2, and 5 of the Timberline Church P.U.D.
specifically, in the West half of Section 29, Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal
Meridian, City of Fort Collins, Larimer County, State of Colorado.
The PROJECT is bound to the north and east by apartment complexes associated with the
Rigden Farm development, to the south by the Foothills Channel and Rendezvous Trail, and to
the west by Timberline Church and parking lot. Adjacent major roadways around the PROJECT
site include South Timberline Road to the west and Custer Drive to the north. Refer to the
vicinity map below and in the Appendix.
Figure 1 - Vicinity Map, NTS
B. Description of Property
The PROJECT area site consists of approximately 10 acres of disturbed area. The existing site
consists of native grasses, existing asphalt drives and parking areas, concrete sidewalks, an
existing water quality and detention pond, and a drainage swale. The current Timberline Church
property drains to the southeast and into a drainage swale or detention pond which then
releases through two outlet structures into the Foothills Channel. The site drains through curb
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING

P a g e 2 | 12
and gutter, storm inlets and storm pipe, or overland flow. The PROJECT is located within the
Foothills Master Drainage Basin.
According to the “Geotechnical Engineering Report” produced by Terracon Consultants, dated
May 5, 2021, the existing soils consist of silt or clay with varying amounts of sand and gravel
over about 4 to 12 feet of sand and gravel. Bedrock was found at depths of approximately 17 to
21 feet below grade. Groundwater was encountered in all of the test borings at about 12 to 13
feet below existing site grades. A copy of the Geotechnical Report can be found in the Appendix.
A USDA NRCS web soil survey of the PROJECT site states that the soils consist mostly of Nunn
clay loam Type C Hydrologic Soils. The HSG C is the predominate soil type across the site and
was used for runoff calculations. Soils with an HSG of C have a very slow infiltration rate when
thoroughly wet and therefore have high runoff potential. A copy of the web soil survey is
referenced in the Appendix.
C. Floodplain Submittal Requirements
The Flood Insurance Rate Map Number 08069C1000F Panel 1000 of 1420, dated December 19,
2006, shows that the proposed development is not located within the 100-year floodway area.
The FEMA FIRMETTE Map is in Appendix A.
According to the City of Ft Collins, the Foothills Channel is considered a High Risk Floodway. The
floodway limits remain within the channel. Because the channel and existing detention pond are
hydraulically connected, there is a possibility of back flow into the pond when the Foothills
Channel WSEL is higher than the WSEL in the detention facility. A map showing the Ft. Collins
Floodway is included in Appendix A.
The proposed design is in accordance with the “City of Fort Collins Floodplain Review Checklist
for Development Review Submittals.”
II. MAJOR DRAINAGE BASINS
A. Major Basin Description
The PROJECT lies entirely within the Foothills Basin which is generally bound by Taft Hill, Ziegler,
Horsetooth, and Drake Road. A Master Plan for the Foothills Basin was completed in 1981. In
1994, the Pinecone PUD Overall Drainage Plan divided the PROJECT site into two Major Basins,
59 and 60. In this report Basin 60 discharged into the channel undetained, while Basin 59 was
slightly detained. Total releases from the site were limited to 97 cfs.
In 1999, the site was further developed as outlined in the referenced Final Drainage Report.
Water quality was provided my means of an extended detention facility. Improvements limited
discharge from the detention facility to 20 cfs.
The 2007 Final Drainage study included major developments to the site. This report utilized a
“beat-the-peak” methodology to establish a new allowable site release of 82 cfs. The 1999
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 3 | 12
Report also included an additional outfall to Foothills Channel and provided an overall site
impervious design value based on future development plans.
The PROJECT lies within several sub-basins developed in the 2007 Report. The affected basins
(A2, A3, B3, B4, C2, D1, D2, and E) were eliminated and replaced with new basins (P1 thru P14,
and D1). The proposed development has an overall site imperviousness (Basins 59 and 60)
below the designed imperviousness values established within the 2007 report. Therefore, the
“beat-the-peak” methodology utilized to design the detention pond remained applicable.
Enhanced water quality features were integrated into the design as required by City of Fot.
Collins water quality standards.
Between the 2007 Report and the PROJECT, the accepted vertical datum has changed from
NGVD29 to NAVD88. This results in a vertical increase of 3.19’ for all elevations referenced in
prior reports.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The total PROJECT site is approximately 10 acres. The proposed development will include the
construction of seven multifamily residential units, private drives and parking lots, and utility
infrastructure necessary to service the proposed buildings. Additionally, drainage facilities
designed to improve Stormwater Quality are proposed for the site in accordance with Chapter
7- Water Quality of the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual.
The PROJECT design includes the modification of the extended detention pond as well as the
drainage swale that provides detention and treats water quality for the 100-year storm for the
added impervious area with the proposed PROJECT development.
Various design criteria were changed throughout the development of the site. Where
comparisons were made, like criteria was utilized to maintain consistency. The following
assessments were performed:
1.Comparison of existing and proposed imperviousness: Criteria effective (surface
impervious values) to the 2007 report were utilized when comparing the proposed project
to the established design of the site.
2.Pipe, Inlet, and Conveyance capacities: current criteria with the Rational Method.
3.Proposed Water Quality and LID Design: current criteria with the Rational Method.
4.Assessment of the As-Build Detention Facility: current criteria with EPA SWMM.

IV. PROPOSED DRAINAGE FACILITIES
A. General Concept
The proposed drainage basins located on the PROJECT site consist of pavement, proposed
building roof, landscaped areas, sidewalk and paved walking paths, paved parking lots, an
extended detention pond and a drainage swale. The north quarter of the site drains to the
drainage swale. The remainder of the site drains to the extended detention pond. About 75% of
the PROJECT site drains to proposed LID systems before discharging into the detention pond and
then discharging offsite into the Foothills Channel. The remaining 25% of the PROJECT site
discharges directly to the existing detention pond where water quality is treated and stored
before discharging offsite into the Foothills Channel.
The balance of the existing site remaining undisturbed will maintain existing drainage ways to
the existing detention pond prior to discharging offsite to the Foothills Channel. The proposed
flow conditions are not expected to change drastically from existing conditions.
The developed imperviousness of the site was compared to the originally designed
imperviousness. To establish the existing condition, areas that are currently fully developed
were assigned surface type areas (pavement, gravel, roof, or landscaping) based on current
aerial imagery. Areas of future/proposed development (from the 2007 report) were assigned
surface areas similar to the 2007 Report. These areas were compared to the design values
tabulated in the original design report.
It was concluded from this analysis that the overall site was originally calculated at a complete
developed composite imperviousness of 75.5%. This is the imperviousness found in the 2007
report and utilized for the Water Quality Volume calculations. A composite imperviousness of
80% was utilized in the SWMM analysis of the detention pond in the 2007 report as well.
Because portions of the proposed work assessed in the 2007 study, an updated “projected-
developed” imperviousness was also calculated which accounted for the as-built condition of
the site thus far, the current “projected-developed” developed composite imperviousness was
calculated at 73.3%. A summary of these values is shown below in Table 1.
To determine the developed composite imperviousness following completion of the PROJECT,
modified basins were replaced with proposed basins and an overall imperviousness was
calculated. The result was 72.5%, slightly below the current “projected-developed” state of
73.3% and well below the originally design values for water quality and detention of 75.5% and
80%. Detailed impervious calculations are included in Appendix B.

In the existing condition, stormwater runoff generated on site is conveyed via overland flow to
existing storm inlets or curb and gutter. The inlets then flow through existing RCP storm sewer
which drains to both detention ponds. The project site that doesn’t flow into storm sewer flows
as overland flow directly into the detention pond. Table 2 below provides a summary of the
existing site imperviousness. Refer to Appendix E for the 2007 Drainage plan and the current
Existing Drainage Plan. Peak flows for existing basins were not calculated as part of an existing
site analysis.

Proposed Drainage
Runoff generated from the proposed development is conveyed via overland flow towards storm
inlets, curb and gutter, and roof drains before being conveyed to rain gardens, swales,
underground filtration systems, or the existing detention ponds. The rain gardens, grass swales,
and underground filtration systems will provide water quality treatment for the site and the
detention ponds will provide detention and water quality treatment. Runoff from this site is
ultimately tributary to the Foothills Channel. Refer to Appendix E for the Proposed Drainage
Plan and basin delineation. See Table 3 for a summary of the proposed and existing basins.
Note that the overall site imperviousness shown in the rational calculations is higher that the
“projected-developed” imperviousness calculated above. As indicated above, the rational

C. Detention Basin/ Outlet Design
Per the 2007 report, the detention pond consists of three hydraulically connected sections:
swale, north, and south ponds. For the remainder of this report, the term Pond will imply the
composition of these three sections. Recently surveyed topography was used in the
development of the existing pond’s stage-storage curve.
The design approach (Beat the peak) of the detention pond swale was not changed. Minor
infilling into the pond will occur with the PROJECT resulting in decreased storage capacity. This
reduction is offset by enlarging the pond in different areas. The existing and proposed state-
storage curves are shown in Appendix C along with a comparison of the two. The net result is a
pond with slightly more storage capacity from the as-built condition.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 7 | 12
The detention pond was analyzed using EPA SWMM Version 5.1. Basin information from the
2007 Report and current Fort Collins Drainage Criteria was utilized to develop sub catchments
SWMM. Basins 59 and 60 were assumed to be at a fully developed imperviousness of 80%,
exceeding the current PROJECT effective imperviousness. Both outlet structures were modeled
in SWMM using recent survey information. Only detained release curves were developed for the
outlet structures as culverts as the releases from the water quality orifice plates are minor
compared to the outlet pipes. An updated peak storage volume and discharge was determined
by routing inflows through the SWMM model. Detailed EPA SWMM documents are included in

Peak Release (cfs)62.13 82
D. Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) Design
The PROJECT site was designed using the Four Step Process outlined in the Fort Collins
Stormwater Criteria Manual. The PROJECT site utilizes a combination of rain gardens
(bioretention), grass swales, underground filtration systems, and extended detention basins to
provide water quality treatment for the PROJECT.
The PROJECT does not use any permeable pavers; therefore the 75/25 rule applies. 75% of the
modified surfaces will be treated by approved LID Systems while the balance can be treated by
standard practices. Most of the PROJECT area requires surface modification as both the surface
type and flow patterns change. However, the improvements associated with the PROJECT within
the private road and existing parking lot north of the PROJECT within Basins A1, B1, P13, and P14,
consist of utility installation and pavement replacement. The flow patterns and surface types in
these areas do not change. After discussion with City Staff, those basins are not included in the
overall modified surface total and do not contribute to the 75/25 LID requirement.
Approximately 75% of the site WQCV was treated using rain gardens, grass swales, or
underground filters while the remaining 25% of the site was routed to the existing extended
detention basin. A summary of the system distribution is shown below in Table 5. Refer to the
Appendix C for detailed rain garden, grass swale, and new volume for the extended detention
basin calculations.

E. Low Impact Development (LID) Design
A variety of Low-Impact-Design (“LID”) features were incorporated into the drainage design for
this project. The following are descriptions of the LID features used in the PROJECT design:
Bioretention (Rain Gardens): Rain gardens have been designed in accordance with the design
and construction detailing for bioretention systems from the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria
Manual. There are 2 proposed rain gardens located throughout the PROJECT site. A 12-hour
drain time was used when designing the rain gardens and all the rain gardens drain into the
extended detention basins where it is then eventually discharged offsite. Several proposed
drainage basins drain directly to the rain gardens via overland flow. No more than two drainage
basins are directed to one rain garden. The rain gardens will be designed with one foot of water
quality ponding depth. An inlet of weir will be provided in the rain gardens for an 100 Year
overflow path that discharges directly into the extended detention basin. Underdrain piping will
be provided within the rain garden as well as underdrain cleanouts as required in the Manual.
Refer to Appendix C for detailed rain garden calculations.
Grass Swale: Grass swales have been designed in accordance with the Grass Swale Best
Management Practice Fact Sheet and Design Spreadsheet from the MANUAL. There is one
proposed grass swale on the PROJECT site. This swale was designed using UDFCD UD-BMP
spreadsheet and followed the CRITERIA and MANUAL. This facility will provide LID/Filtration
treatment only, while the WQCV is still contained in the Extended Detention Basin. The site was
graded to drain to a low point where the grass swale started and then drains freely into the
existing drainage swale to the east with a slope of the grass lined swale at 0.50%. The Grass
Swales will be densely vegetated trapezoidal channels with low-pitched side slopes and a
relatively broad cross sections which will convey flow in a slow and shallow manner, thereby
facilitating sedimentation and filtering while limiting erosion. Calculations for the grass swale is
included in Appendix C.
Underground Filtration: The underground stormwater BMPs have been designed in accordance
with the design and construction detailing for underground infiltration/filtration systems from
the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. There are three proposed locations where these
underground structures will be used throughout the PROJECT site. These were chosen because
of space and grading constraints in the specific locations. StormTech chambers were used as a
basis of design chosen due to their minimal cover requirements. Refer to Appendix C for
detailed rain garden calculations.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 9 | 12
Treatment Train: The use of a treatment train was used to provide multiple BMPs in series. The
use of these LID techniques allows for more consistent treatment of runoff and provide
redundancy if one component isn’t functioning as intended. A flow chart and table of the
treatment train is provided in the Drainage Plans found in Appendix E.
F. Drainage Easements/Maintenance Access
All the drainage easements and maintenance accesses are shown on the drainage plans located
in Appendix E. Drainage and utility easements will be executed with separate instruments
following any replating.
V. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
The drainage design of the project is in compliance with the following criteria:
1. Article VII, Stormwater Utility, City of Fort Collins Municipal Code, latest revision
2. City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual, latest revision (“hereafter referred to as the
“CRITERIA”).
3. “Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual” latest revision (hereafter referred to as the
“MANUAL”).
B. Previous Studies
This drainage report has taken into account the results and recommendations of the previous
PUD developed in 2007 for Timberline Church. It has also taken into account the results and
recommendations of the previous drainage report developed as part of the 2007 PUD.
C. Four Step Process
The PROJECT site was designed to Minimize the Directly Connected Impervious Area (MDCIA)
and follows the guidelines established in the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual and
the MANUAL. The purposed of implementing this Four Step Process is to reduce runoff volumes,
treating the WQCV, stabilize streams and implementing long-term source controls, and pertains
to the management of smaller, more frequently occurring events. The Four Step Process used
for our PROJECT is outlined below.
Step 1: Employ Runoff Reduction Practices
Currently the site contains open area as well as paved asphalt and concrete surfaces and a
existing extended detention pond. The development of site landscaping throughout the site will
help slow runoff and encourage infiltration where possible.
Minimize Directly Connected Impervious Areas (MDCIA): Drainage design for the proposed
residential apartment buildings will discharge roof drain downspouts across pervious
landscaped areas to encourage stormwater infiltration where possible.
TIMBERLINE ATTAINABLE HOUSING
August 18, 2021
P a g e 10 | 12
Extended detention pond: All of the proposed and existing runoff will continue to be routed to
the existing extended detention basin which is grass lined with a small trickle channel in the
center to collect the discharge from storm sewer into the extended detention ponds.
Step 2: Implement BMPs that provide a WQCV with slow release.
The WQCV for the proposed developed site will mostly be treated through proposed rain
gardens, swales, and underground filters located throughout the PROJECT site and the
remainder of the WQCV for the site will be treated in the existing extended detention pond. The
rain gardens, underground filters, and extended detention ponds will release the WQCV at the
rates required by the CRITERIA and MANUAL. The extended detention pond will provide water
quality treatment as well as detention.
Step 3: Stabilize Streams
One of the major drainage channels for the Foothills Basin is located along the southeast side of
the PROJECT site. Impacts on the downstream drainageway will be minimized by routing
developed flows through LID Systems and controlling the release rate out of the pond to existing
flows.
Step 4: Implement Site Specific and Other Source Control BMP’s
The proposed residential site development will implement Stormwater Management Plans
including proper housekeeping practices and spill containment procedures as a separate
document when the Final Drainage Report is submitted. Trash enclosures are shown on the
construction plans and are labeled. All permeant features will be kept out of the detention basin
features.
D. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
As such, the PROJECT will provide 100-year detention per the approach approved in the 2007
Report and additional water quality treatment systems will be provided for the modified areas.

E. Hydrological Criteria
The proposed drainage system is designed in accordance with the CRITERIA and the MANUAL.
Per the CRITERIA, the 2-year and 100-year design storm events were as the minor and major
storm events, respectively. The Rational Method was used to estimate the minor and major
storm runoff generated in the proposed conditions. Impervious and runoff coefficients were
obtained from the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. Soils were classified as NRCS
soil Type C for calculations. Refer to the Appendix B for detailed calculations and design aids.

A. Hydraulic Criteria
The required roof drains and pipes are designed to be routed throughout the PROJECT site will be
designed and sized by the plumbing engineer. On-site flows will be captured by roof drains, storm
inlets, or via overland flow into rain gardens or directly into the existing extended detention ponds.
The major and minor storms were considered to have a 100-year and 2-year return interval,
respectively. Supporting hydraulic calculations are included in the Appendix C.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS
A. Compliance with Standards
The Drainage Report for the Timberline Attainable Housing project has been prepared in
compliance with the CRITERIA, MANUAL, and the City of Fort Collins Municipal Code, Section
3.4.3 Water Quality. The proposed drainage design is consistent with both existing and
developed conditions.
B. Drainage Concept
Developed runoff will be collected and conveyed by a system of overland flow, roof drains, rain
gardens, grass swales, proposed and existing storm sewer directed into the existing water
quality and detention pond located in the eastern portion of the site. LID principles will improve
the water quality for stormwater runoff from the developed site. Development of the site is not
anticipated to adversely impact downstream properties or drainage facilities.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
Custom Soil Resource Report

onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

WATER QUALITY DISTRIBUTION
1) Per 2007 Report, the design volum for the existing EDB was 0.991 Acre-Feet. This is reduced by additional water quality features
2) Basins P13 and P14 are included within the draiange study area for the project but are excluded from the total impervious as improvements within these basins are not considered modified
impervious area. The basins are currently treated in the existing EDB
3) Grass Swale only provides LID/Filtration. WQCV still contained within EDB

REPORT SUMMARY
Topic 1 Overview Statement 2
Project
Overview
A geotechnical exploration has been performed for the proposed Timberline
Apartments to be constructed at 2908 South Timberline Road in Fort Collins,
Colorado. Seven (7) borings were performed to depths of approximately 25 to 30 feet
below existing site grades. Detailed recommendations for the design of storm water
retention features and the pond are outside our scope of work.
Subsurface
Conditions
Subsurface conditions encountered in our exploratory borings generally consisted of
about 9 to 13 feet of silt or clay with varying amounts of sand and gravel over about 4
to 12 feet of sand and gravel. Claystone bedrock was encountered below the
overburden soils at depths of approximately 17 to 21 feet below existing site grades.
The upper approximately 6 inches to 2 feet of bedrock was weathered and
comparatively soft in some of the borings. Boring logs are presented in the
Exploration Results section of this report.
Groundwater
Conditions
Groundwater was encountered in all of our test borings at depths of about 12 to 13 feet
below existing site grades at the time of drilling. Groundwater levels can fluctuate in
response to site development and to varying seasonal and weather conditions,
irrigation on or adjacent to the site and fluctuations in nearby water features.
Geotechnical
Concerns
■ As previously stated, groundwater was measured at depths ranging from about 12
to 13 feet below existing site grades. Groundwater level fluctuations occur due to
seasonal variations in the water levels present in nearby water features, amount of
rainfall, runoff and other factors not evident at the time the borings were performed.
Therefore, groundwater levels during construction or at other times in the life of the
structure(s) may be higher or lower than the levels indicated on the boring logs.
Terracon recommends maintaining a separation of at least 3 feet between the
bottom of proposed below-grade foundations and measured groundwater levels.
Final site grading should be planned and designed to avoid cuts where shallow
groundwater is known to exist, and also in areas where such grading would create
shallow groundwater conditions. If deeper cuts are unavoidable, temporary
construction dewatering and/or installation of a subsurface drainage system may be
needed.
■ Com paratively soft lean clay and silt soils were encountered within the upper
approximately 9 to 13 feet in some of the borings completed at this site. These
materials present a risk for potential settlement of shallow foundations, floor slabs,
pavements and other surficial improvements. These materials can also be
susceptible to disturbance and loss of strength under repeated construction traffic
loads and unstable conditions could develop. Stabilization of soft soils may be
required at some locations to provide adequate support for construction equipment
and proposed structures. Terracon should be contacted if these conditions are
encountered to observe the conditions exposed and to provide guidance regarding
stabilization (if needed).
Earthwork
On-site soils typically appear suitable for use as general engineered fill and backfill on
the site provided they are placed and compacted as described in this report. Import
materials (if needed) should be evaluated and approved by Terracon prior to delivery
to the site. Earthwork recommendations are presented in the Earthwork section of
this report.

Topic 1 Overview Statement 2
Grading and
Drainage
The amount of movement of foundations, floor slabs, pavements, etc. will be related to
the wetting of underlying supporting soils. Therefore, it is imperative the
recommendations discussed in the Grading and Drainage section of the Earthwork
section this report be followed to reduce potential movement. As discussed in the
Grading and Drainage section of this report, surface drainage should be designed,
constructed and maintained to provide rapid removal of surface water runoff away from
the proposed buildings and pavements. Water should not be allowed to pond adjacent
to foundations or on pavements and conservative irrigation practices should be followed
to avoid wetting foundation/slab soils and pavement subgrade. Excessive wetting of
foundations/slab soils and subgrade can cause movement and distress to foundations,
floor slabs, concrete flatwork and pavements.
Foundations
We understand the project team is planning to support the proposed buildings on
post-tensioned slab foundations. Based on the subsurface conditions encountered,
use of post-tensioned slabs is feasible for support of the structures provided some
foundation movement can be tolerated. As an alternative to post-tensioned slabs, or
for other structures planned on the site, shallow spread footing foundations can be
used. Design recommendations for foundations for the proposed structure and
related structural elements are presented in the Shallow Foundations section of
this report.
Floor Systems
For structures supported on a post-tensioned slab foundation system, the foundation
will also function as the floor system. If a conventional spread footing is used as a
foundation system, a slab-on-grade floor system is recommended provided the soils
are over-excavated to a depth of at least 2 feet below the proposed floor slab and
replaced with moisture conditioned, properly compacted engineered fill. On-site soils
are suitable as over-excavation backfill below floor slabs. Design recommendations for
floor systems for the proposed structure and related structural elements are presented
in the Floor Slabs section of this report.
Pavements
Recommended Pavement thicknesses for this project include 3½ inches of asphalt
over 6 inches of aggregate base course in light-duty parking areas and 6 inches of
asphalt over 6 inches of aggregate base course in heavy-duty drive lanes and loading
areas. Additional pavement section alternatives and discussion are presented in the
report.
Seismic
Considerations
As presented in the Seismic Considerations section of this report, the International
Building Code, which refers to Section 20 of ASCE 7, indicates the seismic site
classification for this site is D.
Construction
Observation
and Testing
Close monitoring of the construction operations and implementing drainage
recommendations discussed herein will be critical in achieving the intended
foundation, slab and pavement performance. We therefore recommend that Terracon
be retained to monitor this portion of the work.

GEOTECHNICAL CHARACTERIZATION
Subsurface Profile
We have developed a general characterization of the subsurface conditions based upon our
review of the subsurface exploration, laboratory data, geologic setting and our understanding of
the project. This characterization, termed GeoModel, forms the basis of our geotechnical
calculations and evaluation of site preparation and foundation options. Conditions encounter ed at
each exploration point are indicated on the individual logs. The individual logs and the GeoModel
can be found in the Exploration Results section this report.

grades.
As noted in General Comments, this characterization is based upon widely spaced exploration
points across the site and variations are likely.
Groundwater Conditions
The boreholes were observed while drilling for the presence and level of groundwater. Upon
removal of augers/samplers the boreholes caved due to the sand and gravel soil encountered
above bedrock, therefore groundwater levels after drilling were not able to be obtained. The water
levels observed in the boreholes are noted on the attached boring logs, and are summarized below:
Boring Number Depth to Groundwater While
Drilling, ft.
Elevation of Groundwater
While Drilling, ft.
1 12 4,919
2 12 4,919
3 12 4,916
4 13 4,917
5 13 4,915
6 12 4,917
7 13 4,917
These observations represent short-term groundwater conditions at the time of and shortly after
the field exploration and may not be indicative of other times or at other locations. Groundwater
levels can be expected to fluctuate with varying seasonal and weather conditions, and other
factors.
Groundwater level fluctuations occur due to seasonal variations in the water levels present in
nearby water features, amount of rainfall, runoff and other factors not evident at the time the
borings were performed. Therefore, groundwater levels during construction or at other times in
the life of the structure(s) may be higher or lower than the levels indicated on the boring logs. The
Geotechnical Engineering Report

possibility of groundwater level fluctuations should be considered when developing the design
and construction plans for the project.
Fluctuations in groundwater levels can best be determined by implementation of a groundwater
monitoring plan. Such a plan would include installation of groundwater piezometers, and periodic
measurement of groundwater levels over a sufficient period of time.
Laboratory Testing
Representative soil samples were selected for swell-consolidation testing and exhibited no
movement to 0.4 percent swell when wetted. Samples of site soils and bedrock exhibited
unconfined compressive strengths of approximately 942 and 8,158 pounds per square foot (psf).
Samples of site soils and bedrock selected for plasticity testing exhibited low to moderate plasticity
with liquid limits ranging from non -plastic to 50 and plasticity indices ranging from non-plastic to
29. Laboratory test results are presented in the Exploration Results section of this report.
Soil Infiltration Rate
W e understand the project is considering LID design and the impacts of an infiltration systems
near structures. Based on the soil encountered in our exploratory borings, we believe the soil
encountered in the upper 10 feet on the site will likely be hydrologic soil group C and will likely
have a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wetted. Percolation tests or double -ring infiltrometer
tests can be used to determine actual infiltration rat e of the on-site soils. These services were
not included in our scope of work for project; however, can be completed, for an additional fee at
the request of the client.
GEOTECHNICAL OVERVIEW
Based on subsurface conditions encountered in the borings, the site appears suitable for the
proposed construction from a geotechnical point of view provided certain precautions and design
and construction recommendations described in this report are followed. We have identified
several geotechnical conditions that could impact design, construction and performance of the
proposed structures, pavements, and other site improvements. These included shallow
groundwater and potentially soft, low strength clay and silt soils. These conditions will require
particular attention in project planning, design and during construction and are discussed in
greater detail in the following sections.
Shallow Groundwater
As previously stated, groundwater was measured at depths ranging from about 12 to 13 feet
below existing site grades. Groundwater level fluctuations occur due to seasonal variations in the
water levels present in nearby water features, amount of rainfall, runoff and other factors not

evident at the time the borings were performed. Therefore, groundwater levels during
construction or at other times in the life of the structure(s) may be higher or lower than the levels
indicated on the boring logs. Terracon recommends maintaining a separation of at least 3 feet
between the bottom of proposed below -grade foundations and measured groundwater levels.
Final site grading should be planned and designed to avoid cuts where shallow groundwater is
known to exist, and also in areas where such grading would create shallow groundwater
conditions. If deeper cuts are unavoidable, temporary construction dewatering and/or installation
of a subsurface drainage system may be needed.
Low Strength Soils
Comparatively soft lean clay and silt soils were encountered within the upper approximately 9 to
13 feet in some of the borings completed at this site. These materials present a risk for potential
settlement of shallow foundations, floor slabs, pavements and other surficial improvements.
These materials can also be susceptible to disturbance and loss of strength under repeated
construction traffic loads and unstable conditions could develop. Stabilization of soft soils may
be required at some locations to provide adequate support for construction equipment and
proposed structures. Terracon should be contacted if these conditions are encountered to
observe the conditions exposed and to provide guidance regarding stabilization (if needed).
Foundation and Floor System Recommendations
We understand the project team is planning to support the proposed buildings on post -tensioned
slabs. Based on the subsurface conditions encountered, use of post -tensioned slab foundations
is feasible for support of the structures provided some foundation movement can be tolerated. As
an alternative to post-tensioned slabs, or for other structures planned on the site, shallow spread
footing foundations can be used. Design recommendations for foundations for the proposed
structure and related structural elements are presented in the Shallow Foundations section of
this report.
For structures supported on a post -tensioned slab foundation system, the foundation will also
function as the floor system. If a conventional spread footing is used as a foundation system, a
slab-on-grade floor system is recommended provided the soils are over-excavated to a depth of at
least 2 feet below the proposed floor slab and replaced with moisture conditioned, properly
compacted engineered fill. On-site soils are suitable as over-excavation backfill below floor slabs.
Design recommendations for floor systems for the proposed structure and related structural
elements are presented in the Floor Slabs section of this report.
The General Comments section provides an understanding of the report limitations.

EARTHWORK
The following presents recommendations for site preparation , demolition, excavation, subgrade
preparation, fill materials, compaction requirements, utility trench backfill, grading and drainage
and exterior slab design and construction. Earthwork on the project should be observed and
evaluated by Terracon. Evaluation of earthwork should include observation and/or testing of over -
excavation, subgrade preparation, placement of engineered fills, subgrade stabilization and other
geotechnical conditions exposed during the construction of the project.
Site Preparation
Prior to placing any fill, strip and remove existing vegetatio n, topsoil, and any other deleterious
materials from the proposed construction areas.
Stripped organic materials should be wasted from the site or used to re -vegetate landscaped areas
or exposed slopes after completion of grading operations. Prior to the placement of fills, the site
should be graded to create a relatively level surface to receive fill, and to provide for a relatively
uniform thickness of fill beneath proposed structures.
Demolition
Demolition of the existing parking lots and concrete should include complete removal of all and
exterior flat work within the proposed construction area. This should include removal of any utilities
to be abandoned along with any loose utility trench backfill or loose backfill found adjacent to
existing foundations. All materials derived from the demolition of existing structures and pavements
should be removed from the site.
Consideration could be given to re-using the asphalt and concrete provided the materials are
processed and uniformly blended with the on -site soils. Asphalt and/or concrete materials should
be processed to a maximum size of 2 inches and blended at a ratio of 30 percent asphalt/concrete
to 70 percent of on-site soils.
Excavation
It is anticipated that excavations for the proposed construction can be a ccomplished with
conventional earthmoving equipment. Excavations into the on-site soils will encounter weak and/or
saturated soil conditions with possible caving conditions.
The soils to be excavated can vary significantly across the site as their class ifications are based
solely on the materials encountered in widely-spaced exploratory test borings. The contractor
should verify that similar conditions exist throughout the proposed area of excavation. If different
subsurface conditions are encountered at the time of construction, the actual conditions should be
evaluated to determine any excavation modifications necessary to maintain safe conditions.

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 8
Although evidence of fills or underground facilities such as grease pits, septic tanks, vaults,
basements, and utilities was not observed during the site reconnaissance, such features could be
encountered during construction. If unexpected underground facilities are encountered, such
features should be removed and the excavation thoroughly cleaned prior to backfill placement
and/or construction.
Any over-excavation that extends below the bottom of foundation elevation should extend laterally
beyond all edges of the foundations at least 8 inches per foot of over -excavation depth below the
foundation base elevation. The over-excavation should be backfilled to the foundation base
elevation in accordance with the recommendations presented in this report.
Depending upon depth of excavation and seasonal conditions, surface water infiltration and/or
groundwater may be encountered in excavations on the site. It is anticipated that pumping from
sumps may be utilized to control water within excavations. Well points may be required for
significant groundwater flow, or where excavations penetrate groundwater to a significant depth.
Groundwater seepage should be anticipated for excavations approaching the level of bedrock.
The subgrade soil conditions should be evaluated during the excavation process and the stability
of the soils determined at that time by the contractors’ Competent Person. Slope inclinations flatter
than the OSHA maximum values may have to be used. The individual contractor(s) should be
made responsible for designing and constructing stable, temporary excavations as required to
maintain stability of both the excavation sides and bottom. All excavations should be sloped or
shored in the interest of safety following local, and federal regulations, including current OSHA
excavation and trench safety standards.
As a safety measure, it is recommended that all vehicles and soil piles be kept a minimum lateral
distance from the crest of the slope equal to the slope height. The exposed slope face should be
protected against the elements.
Subgrade Preparation
After vegetative layer and/or existing asphalt has been removed from the construction area, the
top 10 inches of the exposed ground surface should be scarified, moisture conditioned, and
recompacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum dry unit weight as determined by ASTM D698
before any new fill or foundation or pavement is placed.
If pockets of soft, loose, or otherwise unsuitable materials are encountered at the bottom of the
foundation excavations and it is inconvenient to lower the foundations, the proposed foundation
elevations may be reestablished by over-excavating the unsuitable soils and backfilling with
compacted engineered fill or lean concrete.

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 9
After the bottom of the excavation has been compacted, engineered fill can be placed to bring the
building pad and pavement subgrade to the desired grade. Engineered fill should be placed in
accordance with the recommendations presented in subsequent sections of this report.
The stability of the subgrade may be affected by precipitation, repetitive construction traffic or
other factors. If unstable conditions develop, workability may be improved by scarifying and
drying. Alternatively, over-excavation of wet zones and replacement with granular materials may
be used, or crushed gravel and/or rock can be tracked or “crowded” into the unstable surface soil
until a stable working surface is attained. Use of lime, fly ash , cement or geosynthetics could also
be considered as a stabilization technique. Laboratory evaluation is recommended to determine
the effect of chemical stabilization on subgrade soils prior to construction. Lightweight excavation
equipment may also be used to reduce subgrade pumping.
Fill Materials
The on-site soils or approved granular and low plasticity cohesive imported materials may be used
as fill material. Bedrock excavated during site development and construction can be reused as fill
provided the material is broken down and thoroughly processed to a “soil -like” consistency, with
no particles greater than 2 inches in size. The earthwork contractor should expec t significant
mechanical processing and moisture conditioning of the site soils and/or bedrock will be needed
to achieve proper compaction
Imported soils (if required) should meet the following material property requirements:

1. We recommend engineered fill be tested for moisture content and compaction during placement. Should the
results of the in-place density tests indicate the specified moisture or compaction limits have not been met,
the area represented by the test should be reworked and retested as required until the specified moisture
and compaction requirements are achieved.
2. Specifically, moisture levels should be maintained low enough to allow for satisfactory compaction to be
achieved without the fill material pumping when proof rolled.
3. Moisture conditioned clay materials should not be allowed to dry out. A loss of moisture within these materials
could result in an increase in the material’s expansive potential. Subsequent wetting of these materials could
result in undesirable movement.
Utility Trench Backfill
All trench excavations should be made with sufficient working space to permit construction including
backfill placement and compaction.
All underground piping within or near the proposed structures should be designed with flexible
couplings, so minor deviations in alignment do not result in breakage or distress. Utility knockouts
in foundation walls should be oversized to accommodate differential movements. It is imperative
that utility trenches be properly backfilled with relatively clean materials. If utility trenches are
backfilled with relatively clean granular material, they should be capped with at least 18 inches of

cohesive fill in non-pavement areas to reduce the infiltration and conveyance of surface water
through the trench backfill.
Utility trenches are a common source of water infiltration and migration. All utility trenches that
penetrate beneath the buildings should be effectively sealed to restrict water intrusion and flow
through the trenches that could migrate below the buildings. We recommend constructing an
effective clay “trench plug” that extends at least 5 feet out from the face of the building exteriors.
The plug material should consist of clay compacted at a water content at or above the soil’s optimum
water content. The clay fill should be placed to completely surround the utility line and be compacted
in accordance with recommendations in this report.
It is strongly recommended that a representative of Terracon provide full-time observation and
compaction testing of trench backfill within building and pavement areas.
Grading and Drainage
Grades must be adjusted to provide effective drainage away from the proposed building during
construction and maintained throughout the life of the proposed project. Infiltration of water into
foundation excavations must be prevented during construction. Landscape irrigation adjacent to
foundations should be minimized or eliminated. Water permitte d to pond near or adjacent to the
perimeter of the structures (either during or post -construction) can result in significantly higher
soil movements than those discussed in this report. As a result, any estimations of potential
movement described in this report cannot be relied upon if positive drainage is not obtained and
maintained, and water is allowed to infiltrate the fill and/or subgrade.
Exposed ground (if any) should be sloped at a minimum of 10 percent grade for at least 5 feet
beyond the perimeter of the proposed buildings, where possible. Locally, flatter grades may be
necessary to transition ADA access requirements for flatwork. The use of swales, chases and/or
area drains may be required to facilitate drainage in unpaved areas around the perimeter of the
buildings. Backfill against foundations and exterior walls should be properly compacted and free
of all construction debris to reduce the possibility of moisture infiltration. After construction of the
proposed buildings and prior to pro ject completion, we recommend verification of final grading be
performed to document positive drainage, as described above, has been achieved .
Flatwork and pavements will be subject to post -construction movement. Maximum grades
practical should be used f or paving and flatwork to prevent areas where water can pond. In
addition, allowances in final grades should take into consideration post -construction movement
of flatwork, particularly if such movement would be critical. Where paving or flatwork abuts t he
structures, care should be taken that joints are properly sealed and maintained to prevent the
infiltration of surface water.

Planters located adjacent to structures (if any) should preferably be self -contained. Sprinkler
mains and spray heads should be located a minimum of 5 feet away from the building line(s).
Low-volume, drip style landscaped irrigation should be used sparingly near the building. Roof
drains should discharge on to pavements or be extended away from the structures a minimum of
10 feet through the use of splash blocks or downspout extensions. A preferred alternative is to
have the roof drains discharge by solid pipe to storm sewers , a detention pond, or other
appropriate outfall.
Exterior Slab Design and Construction
Exterior slabs on-grade, exterior architectural features, and utilities founded on, or in backfill or
the site soils will likely experience some movement due to the volume change of the material.
Potential movement could be reduced by:
◼ Minimizing moisture increases in the backfill;
◼ Controlling moisture-density during placement of the backfill;
◼ Using designs which allow vertical movement between the exterior features and
adjoining structural elements; and
◼ Placing control joints on relatively close centers.
Construction Observation and Testing
The earthwork efforts should be monitored under the direction of Terracon. Monitoring should
include documentation of adequate removal of vegetation and topsoil, proof rolling, and mitigation
of areas delineated by the proof roll to require mitigation. Each lift of compacted fill should be
tested, evaluated, and reworked as necessary until approved by Terracon prior to placement of
additional lifts.
In areas of foundation excavations, the bearing subgrade should be evaluated under the direction
of Terracon. In the event that unanticipated conditions are encountered, Terracon should
prescribe mitigation options.
In addition to the documentation of the essential parameters necessary for construction, the
continuation of Terracon into the construction phase of the project provides the continuity to
maintain Terracon’s evaluation of subsurface conditions, including assessing variations and
associated design changes.
SHALLOW FOUNDATIONS
If the site has been prepared in accordance with the requirements noted in Earthwork, the
following design parameters are applicable for shallow foundations.

Post-Tensioned Slabs – Design Recommendations
We understand the proposed buildings will be supported on post -tensioned slab foundations.
Based on the subsurface conditions encountered, use of post -tensioned slabs is feasible for
support of the structures provided some foundation movement can be tolerated and:
◼ The post-tensioned slab foundations are properly designed and constructed;
◼ Approved materials supporting the foundation are properly placed and compacted;
◼ Proper surface drainage is maintained throughout the life of the structures; and
◼ Prudent landscaping measures are used.
In our opinion, total foundation movements on the order of about 1 inch s hould be expected.
Provided foundations are properly designed, foundation movements could result in periodic, and
possibly seasonal, cosmetic distress to drywall, window frames, door frames and other features.
We would anticipate that the frequency of di stress and amount of movement would generally
diminish with time provided proper drainage is established and/or maintained. We believe
potential total foundation movements can be reduced to ½ to ¾ inch or less if at least 3 feet of
imported granular engineered fill is placed directly below the post -tensioned slab foundations.
The granular fill should consist of materials within the specified limits presented in the Fill
Materials section of the Earthwork section this report.
Based on the subsurface conditions, post-tensioned slabs should be designed using criteria
presented by the Post-Tensioning Institute1 based on the following:

◼ on cohesionless soils ...................................................................................... 1.00
◼ on cohesive soils............................................................................................. 2.00
The maximum net allowable bearing pressure may be increased by 1/3 for transient wind or
seismic loading.
It should be noted that ym is the estimated vertical movement at the edges of a uniformly loa ded
slab. These are theoretical values that are used in the design of post -tensioned slabs-on-grade
and do not represent the movements that would be expected from the actual loading conditions.
As previously discussed, the use of post -tensioned slabs assumes that some potential movement
is considered acceptable.
Post-Tensioned Slabs – Construction Considerations
Post-tensioned slabs, thickened or turndown edges and/or interior beams should be designed
and constructed in accordance with the requirements of the PTI and the American Concrete
Institute (ACI).
If traditional post-tensioned slab foundations are selected, exterior slab edges should be placed
a minimum of 30 inches below finished grade for frost protection. Finished grade is the lowest
adjacent grade for perimeter beams. Extending exterior slab edges to depths of at least 30 inches
will likely encroach upon soft to very loose and nearly saturated to wet soils requiring stabilization
of subgrade prior to construction.
If portions of the building floor slab will be unheated, such as patios and entryways, consideration
should be given to structurally separating these areas of the slab from the remaining in terior
portion of the slab. Exterior slab areas may be cantilevered portions of the slab which are subject
to uplift from frost heave and swelling of the expansive soils, sometimes beyond those used for
design, due to over watering of adjacent to landscap ed areas. Such movement in the exterior
slabs can result in change in slab grade to the point where negative grade results and water ponds
adjacent to the interior areas of the slab. Repairs of such conditions are difficult and costly,
particularly if the floor slabs are post-tensioned slabs.
Exterior slabs in unheated areas are subject to frost heave beneath the slab. Therefore, in design
of the exterior slabs, potential movement from frost heave should be considered in the design.

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 15
It should be noted that the presences of 1 to 2-foot steps within long spans of post-tensioned
slabs could create a situation where the slabs at different elevations perform independently of
one another unless the steps are properly reinforced and designed to tie the slabs to gether to act
as one rigid structure. We strongly recommend that joints be designed within the full height of
the structure of the building over each step in order to help the structure be capable of
withstanding movements on the order of 1 inch.
The estimated movement should also be considered as the potential amount of tilting of the
structure, which could be caused by non -uniform, significant wetting of the subsurface materials
below the post-tensioned slab, resulting in potential movement. Failure to maintain soil water
content below the slab and to maintain proper drainage around the structure will nullify the
movement estimates provided above.
If the site has been prepared in accordance with the requirements noted in Earthwork, the
following design parameters are applicable for shallow foundations.
Spread Footings - Design Recommendations
As an alternative to post -tensioned slabs, or for other structures planned on the site, shallow
spread footing foundations can be used.

Description Values
1. The recommended maximum net allowable bearing pressure assumes any unsuitable fill or soft soils, if
encountered, will be over-excavated and replaced with properly compacted engineered fill. The design
bearing pressure applies to a dead load plus design live load condition. The design bearing pressure may
be increased by one-third when considering total loads that include wind or seismic conditions
2. The lateral earth pressure coefficients and sliding coefficients are ultimate values and do not include a factor
of safety. The foundation designer should include the appropriate fact ors of safety.
3. For frost protection and to reduce the effects of seasonal moisture variations in the subgrade soils. The
minimum embedment depth is for perimeter footings beneath unheated areas and is relative to lowest
adjacent finished grade, typically exterior grade. Interior column pads in heated areas should bear at least
12 inches below the adjacent grade (or top of the floor slab) for confinement of the bearing materials and to
develop the recommended bearing pressure.
4. The estimated movements presented above are based on the assumption that the maximum footing size is
10 feet for column footings and 1.5 feet for continuous footings. Larger foundation footprints will likely require
reduced net allowable soil bearing pressures to reduce risk for potential settlement.
Footings should be proportioned to reduce differential foundation movement. As discussed, total
movement resulting from the assumed structural loads is estimated to be on the order of about 1
inch. Additional foundation movements cou ld occur if water from any source infiltrates the
foundation soils; therefore, proper drainage should be provided in the final design and during
construction and throughout the life of the structure. Failure to maintain the proper drainage as
recommended in the Grading and Drainage section of the Earthwork section of this report will
nullify the movement estimates provided above.
Spread Footings - Construction Considerations
To reduce the potential of “pumping” and softening of the foundation soils at the foundation
bearing level and the requirement for corrective work, we suggest the foundation excavation for
the structures be completed remotely with a track-hoe operating outside of the excavation limits.
Spread footing construction should only be considered if the estimated foundation movement can
be tolerated. Subgrade soils beneath footings should be moisture conditioned and compacted as
described in the Earthwork section of this report. The moisture content and compaction of
subgrade soils should be maintained until foundation construction.
Footings and foundation walls should be reinforced as necessary to reduce the potential for distress
caused by differential foundation movement.
Unstable subgrade conditions are anticipated as excavations approac h the groundwater surface.
Unstable surfaces will need to be stabilized prior to backfilling excavations and/or constructing
the building foundation, floor slab and/or project pavements. The use of angular rock, recycled
concrete and/or gravel pushed or “c rowded” into the yielding subgrade is considered suitable
means of stabilizing the subgrade. The use of geogrid materials in conjunction with gravel could
also be considered and could be more cost effective.
Geotechnical Engineering Report
Timberline Apartments ■ Fort Collins, Colorado
May 5, 2021 ■ Terracon Project No. 20215032
Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 17
Unstable subgrade conditions should be observed by Terracon to assess the subgrade and
provide suitable alternatives for stabilization. Stabilized areas should be proof rolled prior to
continuing construction to assess the stability of the subgrade.
Foundation excavations should be observed by Terraco n. If the soil conditions encountered differ
significantly from those presented in this report, supplemental recommendations will be required.
SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS
The seismic design requirements for buildings and other structures are based on Seismic Design
Category. Site Classification is required to determine the Seismic Design Category for a structure.
The Site Classification is based on the upper 100 feet of the site profile defined by a weighted
average value of either shear wave velocity, standard penetration resistance, or undrained shear
strength in accordance with Section 20.4 of ASCE 7 and the International Building Code (IBC).
Based on the soil/bedrock properties encountered at the site and as described on the exploration
logs and results, it is our professional opinion that the Seismic Site Classification is D.
Subsurface explorations at this site were extended to a maximum depth of 30 feet. The site
properties below the boring depth to 100 feet were estimated based on our experience and
knowledge of geologic conditions of the general area. Additional deeper borings or geophysical
testing may be performed to confirm the conditions below the current boring depth.
FLOOR SLABS
For structures supported on a post -tensioned slab foundation system, the foundation will also
function as the floor system. If a conventional spread footing is used as a foundation system, a
slab on grade floor system is recommended provided the soils are over -excavated to a depth of
at least 2 feet below the proposed floor slab and replaced with moisture conditioned, properly
compacted engineered fill. On -site soils are suitable as over-excavation backfill below floor slabs.
If the estimated movement cannot be tolerated, a structurally -supported floor system, supported
independent of the subgrade materials, is recommended.
Subgrade soils beneath interior and exterior slabs and at the base of the over-excavation should
be scarified to a depth of at least 10 inches, moisture conditioned and compacted. The moisture
content and compaction of subgrade soils should be maintained until slab construction .

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 18
Floor System - Design Recommendations
Even when bearing on properly prepared soils, movement of the slab -on-grade floor system is
possible should the subgrade soils undergo an i ncrease in moisture content. We estimate
movement of about 1 inch is possible. If the owner cannot accept the risk of slab movement, a
structural floor should be used. If conventional slab-on-grade is utilized, the subgrade soils should
be over-excavated and prepared as presented in the Earthwork section of this report.
For structural design of concrete slabs-on-grade subjected to point loadings, a modulus of
subgrade reaction of 100 pounds per cubic inch (pci) may be used for floors supported on re -
compacted existing soils at the site. A modulus of 200 pci may be used for floors supported on
at least 1 foot of non-expansive, imported granular fill.
Additional floor slab design and construction recommendations are as follows:
◼ Positive separations and/or isolation joints should be provided between slabs and all
foundations, columns, or utility lines to allow independent movement.
◼ Control joints should be saw-cut in slabs in accordance with ACI Design Manual, Section
302.1R-37 8.3.12 (tooled control joints are not recommended) to control the location and
extent of cracking.
◼ Interior utility trench backfill placed beneath slabs should be compacted in accordance
with the recommendations presented in the Earthwork section of this report.
◼ Floor slabs should not be constructed on frozen subgrade.
◼ Other design and construction considerations, as outlined in the ACI Design Manual,
Section 302.1R are recommended.
Floor Systems - Construction Considerations
Movements of slabs-on-grade using the recommendations discussed in previous sections of this
report will likely be reduced and tend to be more uniform. The estimates discussed above assume
that the other recommendations in this report are followed. Additional movement could occur
should the subsurface soils become wetted to significant depths, which could result in potential
excessive movement causing uneven floor slabs and severe cracking. This could be due to over
watering of landscaping, poor drainage, improperly functioning drain systems, and/or bro ken utility
lines. Therefore, it is imperative that the recommendations presented in this report be followed.

BELOW -GRADE STRUCTURES
Lateral Earth Pressures
Below-grade structures or reinforced concrete walls with unbalanced backfill levels on opposite
sides should be designed for earth pressures at least equal to those indicated in the following
table. Earth pressures will be influenced by structural design of the walls, conditions of wall
restraint, methods of construction and/or compaction and the stre ngth of the materials being
restrained. Two wall restraint conditions are shown. Active earth pressure is commonly used for
design of free-standing cantilever retaining walls and assumes wall movement. The "at -rest"
condition assumes no wall movement. The recommended design lateral earth pressures do not
include a factor of safety and do not provide for possible hydrostatic pressure on the walls.

Applicable conditions to the above include:
■ For active earth pressure, wall must rotate about base, with top lateral movements of about
0.002 H to 0.004 H, where H is wall height
■ For passive earth pressure to develop, wall must move horizontally to mobilize resistance
■ Uniform surcharge, where S is surcharge pressure
■ In -situ soil backfill weight a maximum of 120 pcf
■ Horizontal backfill, compacted between 95 and 98 percent of standard Proctor maximum
dry density

■ Loading from heavy compaction equipment not included

Backfill placed against structures should consist of granular soils or low plasticity cohesive soils.
For the granular values to be valid, the granular backfill must extend out and up from the base of
the wall at an angle of at least 45 and 60 degrees from vertical for the active and passive cases,
respectively. To calculate the resistance to sliding, a value of 0.32 should be used as the ultimate
coefficient of friction between the footing and the underlying soi l.
Subsurface Drainage for Below-Grade Walls
A perforated rigid plastic or metal drain line installed behind the base of walls that extend below
adjacent grade is recommended to prevent hydrostatic loading on the walls. The invert of a drain
line around a below-grade building area or exterior retaining wall should be placed near
foundation bearing level. The drain line should be sloped to provide positive gravity drainage or
to a sump pit and pump. The drain line should be surrounded by clean, free -draining granular
material having less than 5 percent passing the No. 200 sieve. The free -draining aggregate
should be encapsulated in a filter fabric. The granular fill should extend to within 2 feet of final
grade, where it should be capped with compacted cohesive fill to reduce infiltration of surface
water into the drain system.

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 21
As an alternative to free -draining granular fill, a pre -fabricated drainage structure may be used.
A pre-fabricated drainage structure is a plastic drainage core or mesh which is covered with filter
fabric to prevent soil intrusion, and is fastened to the wall prior to placing backfill.
To control hydrostatic pressure behind the wall we recommend that a drain be installed at the
foundation wall with a collection pipe leading t o a reliable discharge. If this is not possible, then
combined hydrostatic and lateral earth pressures should be calculated for lean clay backfill using
an equivalent fluid weighing 90 and 100 pcf for active and at -rest conditions, respectively. For
granular backfill, an equivalent fluid weighing 85 and 90 pcf should be used for active and at -rest,
respectively. These pressures do not include the influence of surcharge, equipment or floor
loading, which should be added. Heavy equipment should not operat e within a distance closer
than the exposed height of retaining walls to prevent lateral pressures more than those provided.
Elevator Pit
We assume an elevator pit will be included in the interior of the building. The elevator pit will likely
consist of reinforced concrete walls with a concrete base slab. Based on our experience with this
type of structure, we anticipate the base slabs will be about 5 feet below the level of the finished
floor slab.
Elevator Pit - Design Recommendation
Subsurface conditions in elevator pit excavations are generally anticipated to consist of native clays
and/or sands/gravels. Groundwater was encountered at depths of about 11½ to 14 ½ feet below
existing site grades at the time of our field exploration. However, groundwater le vels can and
should be expected to fluctuate over time.
Depending upon final site grades and elevator pit elevations, groundwater could impact the
performance of the pit base slab. If the pit slab is constructed at or within about 4 feet of the level
of groundwater, the pit/slab should be designed and constructed to resist hydrostatic pressures
and uplift due to the effects of buoyancy or it should be protected by an underdrain system for
permanent dewatering. “Water-proofing” of the pit will also be need ed if permanent dewatering is
not used. Terracon should evaluate the groundwater level within each elevator pit area prior to or
during construction.
The elevator pit walls should be designed for the lateral earth pressures imposed by the soil
backfill. Earth pressures will primarily be influenced by structural design of the walls, conditions
of wall restraint and type, compaction and drainage of the backfill. For purposes of design, we
have assumed approximately 5 feet of fill will be retained by the pit walls and backfill will consist of
the on-site lean clays. If taller walls are planned, or if different type of backfill is used, we should
be contacted to review our data and confirm or modify the design criteria presented below.

Active earth pressure is commonly used for design of walls (such as free -standing cantilever
retaining walls) and assumes some wall rotation and deflection. For walls that can deflect and
rotate about the base, with top lateral movements of about ¼ to ½ percent or more of the wall
height, lower “active” earth pressures could be considered for design. Use of the “active” condition
assumes deflection and thus cracking of walls could occur. For rigid walls where negligible or very
little rotation and deflection will occur, "at -rest" lateral earth pressures should be used in the
design.
Reinforced concrete pit walls should be designed for lateral earth pressures and/or combined
hydrostatic and lateral earth pressures at least equal to those indicated in the lateral earth
pressure table presented at the beginning of this section .
PAVEMENTS
Pavements – Subgrade Preparation
On most project sites, the site grading is accomplished relatively early in the construction phase.
Fills are typically placed and compacted in a uniform manner . However, as construction
proceeds, the subgrade may be disturbed due to utility excavations, construction traffic,
desiccation, or rainfall/snow melt. As a result, the pavement subgrade may not be suitable for
pavement construction and corrective action will be required. The subgrade should be carefully
evaluated at the time of pavement construction for signs of disturbance or instability. We
recommend the pavement subgrade be thoroughly proof rolled with a loaded tandem-axle dump
truck prior to final g rading and paving. All pavement areas should be moisture conditioned and
properly compacted to the recommendations in this report immediately prior to paving.
Pavements – Design Recommendations
Design of new privately-maintained pavements for the project has been based on the procedures
described by the National Asphalt Pavement Associations (NAPA) and the American Concrete
Institute (ACI).
We assumed the following design parameters for NAPA flexible pavement thickness design:
◼ Automobile Parking Areas
• Class I - Parking stalls and parking lots for cars and pick -up trucks, with
Equivalent Single Axle Load (ESAL) up to 7,000 over 20 years
◼ Main Traffic Corridors
• Class II – Parking lots with a maximum of 10 trucks per day with Equivalent
Single Axle Load (ESAL) up to 27,000 over 20 years (Including trash trucks)
◼ Subgrade Soil Characteristics

• USCS Classification – CL/ML, classified by NAPA as poor
We assumed the following design parameters for ACI rigid pavement thickness design based
upon the average daily truck traffic (ADTT):
◼ Automobile Parking Areas
• ACI Category A: Automobile parking with an ADTT of 1 over 20 years
◼ Main Traffic Corridors
• ACI Category A: Automobile parking area and service lanes with an ADTT of
up to 10 over 20 years
◼ Subgrade Soil Characteristics
• USCS Classification – CL/ML
◼ Concrete modulus of rupture value of 600 psi
We should be contacted to confirm and/or modify the recommendations contained herein if actual
traffic volumes differ from the assumed values shown above.
Recommended alternatives for flexible and rigid pavements are summarized for each traffic area
as follows:

Aggregate base course (if used on the site) should consist of a blend of sand and gravel which
meets strict specifications for quality and gradation. Use of materials meeting Colorado
Department of Transportation (CDOT) Class 5 or 6 specifications is recommended for aggregate
base course. Aggregate base course should be placed in lifts not exceeding 6 inch es and
compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry unit weight as determined by ASTM
D698.
Asphaltic concrete should be composed of a mixture of aggregate, filler and additives (if required)
and approved bituminous material. The asphalt con crete should conform to approved mix

designs stating the Superpave properties, optimum asphalt content, job mix formula and
recommended mixing and placing temperatures. Aggregate used in asphalt concrete should
meet particular gradations. Material meeting CDOT Grading S or SX specifications or equivalent
is recommended for asphalt concrete. Mix designs should be submitted prior to construction to
verify their adequacy. Asphalt material should be placed in maximum 3 -inch lifts and compacted
within a range of 92 to 96 percent of the theoretical maximum (Rice) density (ASTM D2041).
Where rigid pavements are used, the concrete should be produced from an approved mix design
with the following minimum properties:
Properties Value
Compressive strength 4,000 psi
Cement type Type I or II portland cement
Entrained air content (%) 5 to 8
Concrete aggregate ASTM C33 and CDOT section 703
Concrete should be deposited by truck mixers or agitators and placed a maximum of 90 minutes
from the time the water is added to the mix. Longitudinal and transverse joints should be provided
as needed in concrete pavements for expansion/contraction and isolation per ACI 325. The
location and extent of joints should be based upon the final pavement geometry.
For areas subject to concentrated and repetitive loading conditions (if any) such as dumpster
pads, truck delivery docks and ingress/egress aprons, we recommend using a portland cement
concrete pavement with a thickness of at least 6 inches underlain by at least 4 inch es of granular
base. Prior to placement of the granular base, the areas should be thoroughly proof rolled. For
dumpster pads, the concrete pavement area should be large enough to support the container and
tipping axle of the refuse truck.
Pavement performance is affected by its surroundings. In addition to providing preventive
maintenance, the civil engineer should consider the following recommendations in the design and
layout of pavements:
■ Site grades should slope a minimum of 2 percent away from the p avements;
■ The subgrade and the pavement surface have a minimum 2 percent slope to promote proper
surface drainage;
■ Consider appropriate edge drainage and pavement under drain systems;

■ Install joint sealant and seal cracks immediately;
■ Seal all landscaped areas in, or adjacent to pavements to reduce moisture migration to

■ Placing compacted, low permeability backfill against the exterior side of curb and gutter.
Pavements – Construction Considerations
Openings in pavement, such as landscape islands, are sources for water infiltration into
surrounding pavements. Water collects in the islands and migrates into the surrounding subgrade
soils thereby degrading support of the pavement. This is especially applicable for islands with
raised concrete curbs, irrigated foliage, and low permeability near -surface soils. The civil design
for the pavements with these conditions should include features to restrict or to collect and
discharge excess water from the islands. Examples of features are edge drains connected to the
storm water collection system or other suitable outlet and impermeable barriers preventing lateral
migration of water such as a cutoff wall installed to a d epth below the pavement structure.
Pavements – Maintenance
Preventative maintenance should be planned and provided for an ongoing pavement
management program in order to enhance future pavement performance. Preventive
maintenance consists of both localiz ed maintenance (e.g. crack and joint sealing and patching)
and global maintenance (e.g. surface sealing). Preventative maintenance is usually the first
priority when implementing a planned pavement maintenance program and provides the highest
return on investment for pavements.
FROST CONSIDERATIONS
The soils on this site are frost susceptible, and small amounts of water can affect the performance
of the slabs on-grade, sidewalks, and pavements. Exterior slabs should be anticipated to heave
during winter months. If frost action needs to be eliminated in critical areas, we recommend the
use of non-frost susceptible (NFS) fill or structural slabs (for instance, structural stoops in front of
building doors). Placement of NFS material in large areas may not be feasible; however, the
following recommendations are provided to help reduce potential frost heave:
■ Provide surface drainage away from the building and slabs, and toward the site storm
drainage system.
■ Install drains around the perimeter of the building, stoops, below exterior slabs and
pavements, and connect them to the storm drainage system .
■ Grade clayey subgrades, so groundwater potentially perched in overlying more permeable
subgrades, such as sand or aggregate base, slope toward a site drainage system .
■ Place NFS fill as backfill beneath slabs and pavements critical to the project .
■ Place a 3 horizontal to 1 vertical (3H:1V) transition zone between NFS fill and other soils.
■ Place NFS materials in critical sidewalk areas.

As an alternative to extending NFS fill to the full frost depth, consideration can be made to placing
extruded polystyrene or cellular concrete under a buffer of at least 2 feet of NFS material.
CORROSIVITY
At the time this report was prepared, the laboratory testing for water -soluble sulfates had not been
completed. We will submit a supplemental section with the testing results and recommendations
once the testing has been completed.
GENERAL COMMENTS
Our analysis and opinions are based upon our understanding of the project, the geotechnical
conditions in the area, and the data obtained from our site exploration. Natural variations will occur
between exploration point locations or due to the modifying effec ts of construction or weather.
The nature and extent of such variations may not beco me evident until during or after construction.
Terracon should be retained as the Geotechnical Engineer, where noted in th is report, to provide
observation and testing services during pertinent construction phases. If variations appear, we
can provide further evaluation and supplemental recommendations. If variations are noted in the
absence of our observation and testing services on -site, we should be immediately notified so
that we can provide evaluation and supplemental recommendations.
Our Scope of Services does not include either specifically or by implication any environmental or
biological (e.g., mold, fungi, bacteria) assessment of the site or identification or prevention of
pollutants, hazardous materials or conditions. If the owner is concerned about the potential for
such contamination or pollution, other studies should be undertaken.
Our services and any correspondence or collaboration through this system are intended for the
sole benefit and exclusive use of our client for specific application to the project discussed and
are accomplished in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineering practices with
no third-party beneficiaries intended. Any third-party access to services or correspondence is
solely for information purposes to support the services provided by Terracon to our client.
Reliance upon the services and any work product is limited to our client, and is not intended for
third parties. Any use or reliance of the provided information by third parties is done solely at thei r
own risk. No warranties, either express or implied, are intended or made.
Site characteristics as provided are for design purposes and not to estimate excavation cost. Any
use of our report in that regard is done at the sole risk of the excavating cost estimator as there
may be variations on the site that are not apparent in the data that could significantly impact
excavation cost. Any parties charged with estimating excavation costs should seek their own site
characterization for specific purposes to obtain the specific level of detail necessary for costing.

EXPLORATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES
Field Exploration
The field exploration program consist ed of the following:
Number of Borings Boring Depth (feet) 1 Location
7 25 to 30 or auger refusal Planned building areas
Boring Layout and Elevations: We used handheld GPS equipment to locate borings with an
estimated horizontal accuracy of +/-20 feet. A ground surface elevation at each boring location
was obtained by interpolation from a provided site specific, surveyed topographic map.
Subsurface Exploration Procedures: We advanced soil borings with a truck-mounted drill rig
using solid-stem, continuous-flight augers. Three samples were obtained in the upper 10 feet of
each boring and at intervals of 5 feet thereafter. Soil sampling was performed using modified
California barrel and standard split -barrel sampling procedures. For the standard split -barrel
sampling procedure, a standard 2 -inch outer diameter split-barrel sampling spoon is driven into
the ground by a 140 -pound automatic hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The number of
blows required to advance the sampling spoon the last 12 inches of a normal 18 -inch penetration
is recorded as the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) resistance value. The SPT resistance values,
also referred to as N-values, are indicated on the boring logs at the test depths. For the modified
California barrel sampling procedure, a 2½-inch outer diameter split-barrel sampling spoon is
used for sampling. Modified California barrel sampling procedures are similar to standard split -
barrel sampling procedures; however, blow counts are typically recorded for 6 -inch intervals for a
total of 12 inches of penetration. The samples were placed in appropriate containers, taken to our
soil laboratory for testing, and classified by a geotechnical engineer.
In addition, we observed and recorded groundwater levels during drilling observations. No
provisions were made to obtain delayed groundwater measurements.
Our exploration team prepared field boring logs as part of standard drilling operations including
sampling depths, penetration distances, and other relevant sampling information. Field logs will
include visual classifications of materials encountered during drilling, and our interpretation of
subsurface conditions between samples. Final boring logs, prepared from field logs, represent
the geotechnical engineer's interpretation, and include modifications based on observations an d
laboratory test results.
Property Disturbance: We backfilled borings with auger cuttings after completion. Borings
completed in pavement areas were backfilled with auger cuttings and patched with asphalt, as
Geotechnical Engineering Report

appropriate. Our services did not include repair of the site beyond backfilling our boreholes, and
patching existing pavements. Excess auger cuttings were dispersed in the general vicinity of the
boreholes. Because backfill material often settles below the surface after a period, we recommend
checking boreholes periodically and backfilling, if necessary. We can provide this service, for
additional fees, at your request.
Laboratory Testing
The project engineer reviewed field data and assigned various laboratory tests to better
understand the engineerin g properties of various soil and bedrock strata. Laboratory testing was
conducted in general accordance with applicable or other locally recognized standards.
Procedural standards noted in this report are for reference to methodology in general. In some
cases, variations to methods are applied as a result of local practice or professional judgement.
Testing was performed under the direction of a geotechnical engineer and included the following:
■ Visual classification ■ Moisture content
■ Dry density ■ Atterberg limits
■ Grain-size analysis ■ One-dimensional swell
■ hydrometer ■ Unconfined compressive strength
■ Water-soluble sulfates
Our laboratory testing program includes examination of soil samples by an engineer. Based on
the material’s texture and plasticity, we described and classified soil samples in accordance with
the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Soil and bedrock samples obtained during our
field work will be disposed of after laboratory testing is complete unless a specific request is made
to temporarily store the samples for a longer period of time.
Bedrock samples obtained had rock classification conducted using locally accepted practices for
engineering purposes. Boring log rock classification is determined using the Description of Rock
Properties.

GENERAL NOTES
DESCRIPTION OF SYMBOLS AND ABBREVIATIONS
Water levels indicated on the soil boring logs are
the levels measured in the borehole at the times
indicated. Groundwater level variations will occur
over time. In low permeability soils, accurate
determination of groundwater levels is not possible
with short term water level observations.

Exploration point locations as shown on the Exploration Plan and as noted on the soil boring logs in the form of Latitude and
Longitude are approximate. See Exploration and Testing Procedures in the report for the methods used to locate the
exploration points for this project. Surface elevation data annotated with +/- indicates that no actual topographical survey was
conducted to confirm the surface elevation. Instead, the surface elevation was approximately determined from topographic
maps of the area.
LOCATION AND ELEVATION NOTES
Soil classification as noted on the soil boring logs is based Unified Soil Classification System. Where sufficient laboratory data
exist to classify the soils consistent with ASTM D2487 "Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes" this procedure is used.
ASTM D2488 "Description and Identification of Soils (Visual-Manual Procedure)" is also used to classify the soils, particularly
where insufficient laboratory data exist to classify the soils in accordance with ASTM D2487. In addition to USCS classification,
coarse grained soils are classified on the basis of their in-place relative density, and fine-grained soils are classified on the basis
of their consistency. See "Strength Terms" table below for details. The ASTM standards noted above are for reference to
methodology in general. In some cases, variations to methods are applied as a result of local practice or professional judgment.
DESCRIPTIVE SOIL CLASSIFICATION

DESCRIPTION OF ROCK PROPERTIES
ROCK VERSION 1
WEATHERING
Term Description
Unweathered No visible sign of rock material weathering, perhaps slight discoloration on major discontinuity surfaces.
Slightly
weathered
Discoloration indicates weathering of rock material and discontinuity surfaces. All the rock material may be
discolored by weathering and may be somewhat weaker externally than in its fresh condition.
Moderately
weathered
Less than half of the rock material is decomposed and/or disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or discolored rock is
present either as a continuous framework or as corestones.
Highly
weathered
More than half of the rock material is decomposed and/or disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or discolored ro ck is
present either as a discontinuous framework or as corestones.
Completely
weathered All rock material is decomposed and/or disintegrated to soil. The original mass structure is still largely intact.
Residual soil All rock material is converted to soil. The mass structure and material fabric are destroyed. There is a large
change in volume, but the soil has not been significantly transported.
STRENGTH OR HARDNESS
Description Field Identification Uniaxial Compressive
Strength, psi (MPa)
Extremely weak Indented by thumbnail 40-150 (0.3-1)
Very weak Crumbles under firm blows with point of geological hammer, can be
peeled by a pocket knife 150-700 (1-5)
Weak rock Can be peeled by a pocket knife with difficulty, shallow indentations
made by firm blow with point of geological hammer 700-4,000 (5-30)
Medium strong Cannot be scraped or peeled with a pocket knife, specimen can be
fractured with single firm blow of geological hammer 4,000-7,000 (30-50)
Strong rock Specimen requires more than one blow of geological hammer to
fracture it 7,000-15,000 (50-100)
Very strong Specimen requires many blows of geological hammer to fracture it 15,000-36,000 (100-250)
Extremely strong Specimen can only be chipped with geological hammer >36,000 (>250)
DISCONTINUITY DESCRIPTION
Fracture Spacing (Joints, Faults, Other Fractures) Bedding Spacing (May Include Foliation or Banding)
Description Spacing Description Spacing
Extremely close < ¾ in (<19 mm) Laminated < ½ in (<12 mm)
Very close ¾ in – 2-1/2 in (19 - 60 mm) Very thin ½ in – 2 in (12 – 50 mm)
Close 2-1/2 in – 8 in (60 – 200 mm) Thin 2 in – 1 ft. (50 – 300 mm)
Moderate 8 in – 2 ft. (200 – 600 mm) Medium 1 ft. – 3 ft. (300 – 900 mm)
Wide 2 ft. – 6 ft. (600 mm – 2.0 m) Thick 3 ft. – 10 ft. (900 mm – 3 m)
Very Wide 6 ft. – 20 ft. (2.0 – 6 m) Massive > 10 ft. (3 m)
Discontinuity Orientation (Angle): Measure the angle of discontinuity relative to a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the
core. (For most cases, the core axis is vertical; therefore, the plane perpendicular to the core axis is horizontal.) For example, a
horizontal bedding plane would have a 0-degree angle.
ROCK QUALITY DESIGNATION (RQD) 1
Description RQD Value (%)
Very Poor 0 - 25
Poor 25 – 50
Fair 50 – 75
Good 75 – 90
Excellent 90 - 100
1. The combined length of all sound and intact core segments equal to or greater than 4 inches in length, expressed as a
percentage of the total core run length.
