Mr. Moss:
Enclosed, herewith, are the results of the preliminary subsurface exploration completed by Earth
Engineering Consultants, LLC personnel for the referenced project. A total of thirty (30)
preliminary soil borings were drilled from August 14 through 30, 2017, at the approximate
locations as indicated on the enclosed Figure 1: Boring Location Diagram included with this
report. The borings were extended to depths of approximately 25 to 40 feet below existing site
grades. Individual boring logs, including groundwater observations, depth to bedrock, and
results of laboratory testing are included as a part of the attached report. This exploration was
completed in general accordance with our proposal dated June 26, 2017.
In summary, the subsurface soils encountered in the preliminary test borings generally consisted
of cohesive lean clay with varying amounts of sand subsoils. The cohesive soils were generally
soft to very stiff and exhibited low to high swell potential at current moisture and density
conditions. The lean clay subsoils were underlain by sand/gravel with varying amounts of silt
soils at depths of approximately 7 to 39 feet. The sand/gravel subsoils extended to the depths
explored, approximately 25 to 40 feet, or to the underlying bedrock. The
sandstone/siltstone/claystone bedrock was encountered in seven (7) of the thirty (30) preliminary
test borings at depths ranging from approximately 24 to 27 feet below existing site grades and

extended to the depths explored. The bedrock formation was highly weathered and became more
competent/harder with increased depth. Groundwater was observed in the majority of the
preliminary test borings at depths ranging from approximately 2 to 36½ feet below existing site
grades.
Based on the materials observed within the preliminary boring locations and the anticipated
foundation loads, we believe the proposed lightly to moderately loaded structures, either
commercial/retail building and/or residential structures with possible basements, could be
supported by conventional spread footings bearing on either suitable native subsoils or on a zone
of engineered/controlled fill material placed and compacted as described within this report. Due
to the variable depth to groundwater across the site, moderate to high swells at various locations,
and occasional areas with lower bearing capacities, ground modifications may be necessary in
these areas, as described within this report.
Groundwater was encountered across the site within the majority of the preliminary borings at
approximate depths of 2 to 36½ feet below existing site grades. If lower level construction or
full-depth basements are being considered for the site, we would suggest that the lower level
subgrade(s) be placed a minimum of 3 feet above the maximum anticipated rise in groundwater
levels, or a combination exterior and interior perimeter drainage system(s) be installed.
Foundations for slab-on-grade buildings should also be placed at least 3 feet above maximum
groundwater levels or have proper drainage in areas with extremely shallow groundwater.
Additional drainage system recommendations are provided within the text portion of this report.
In general, it appears the in-situ site materials could be used for support of interior slab-on-
grades, exterior flatwork, and site pavements; however, ground modification procedures such as
over-excavation and replacement of existing fill materials as approved engineered fill and
placement of an approved imported fill material may be required to reduce post-construction
movement in some areas. Post-construction movement can be reduced but cannot be eliminated.
Additionally, the cohesive subsoil materials may be subject to strength loss and instability when
wetted. Close monitoring and evaluation during the construction phase should be performed to
reduce post-construction movement.

INTRODUCTION
The preliminary subsurface exploration for the proposed 800-acre mixed use development located
southeast of Larimer County Road (LCR) 52 and LCR 50E in Fort Collins, Colorado has been
completed. A total of thirty (30) soil borings were drilled from August 14 through 30, 2017 at the
approximate locations as indicated on the enclosed Boring Location Diagrams included with this
report. The thirty (30) preliminary soil borings were advanced to depths of approximately 25 to 40
feet below existing site grades across the proposed development property to obtain information on
existing subsurface conditions. Individual boring logs and site diagrams indicating the approximate
boring locations are included with this report.
The 800-acre development property is located southeast of Larimer County Road (LCR) 52 and LCR
50E and generally extends east to the existing Budweiser property and Interstate 25 and south to
LCR 50 and Canal Access Road in Fort Collins, Colorado. The property will be developed for
residential, commercial, and industrial use, including utility and interior roadway infrastructure.
Foundation loads for the proposed residential, commercial, and industrial structures are anticipated
to be light to moderate with continuous wall loads less than 4 kips per lineal foot and individual
column loads less than 250 kips. Floor loads are expected to be light. Those structures are expected
to include slab-on-grade, below grade construction such as crawl spaces, garden-level and/or full-
depth basements where applicable. We anticipate maximum cuts and fills on the order of 5 feet (+/-)
will be completed to develop the site grades. Overall site development will include construction of
interior roadway designed in general accordance with the Larimer County Urban Area Street
Standards (LCUASS) Pavement Design Criteria.
The purpose of this report is to describe the subsurface conditions encountered in the preliminary
borings, analyze and evaluate the test data and provide preliminary geotechnical recommendations
concerning site development including foundations, floor slabs, pavement sections and the
possibility for an area underdrain system to support basement construction.

EXPLORATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES
The boring locations were established in the field by a representative of Earth Engineering
Consultants, LLC (EEC) by pacing and estimating angles from identifiable site features. Those
locations should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used to make the
field measurements. Photographs of the site taken at the time of drilling are provided with this
report.
The borings were performed using either a truck-mounted CME-55 drill rig equipped with a
hydraulic head employed in drilling and sampling operations. The boreholes were advanced using
4-inch nominal diameter continuous flight augers. Samples of the subsurface materials encountered
were obtained using split-barrel and California barrel sampling procedures in general accordance
with ASTM Specifications D1586 and D3550, respectively.
In the split-barrel and California barrel sampling procedures, standard sampling spoons are driven
into the ground by means of a 140-pound hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The number of
blows required to advance the samplers is recorded and is used to estimate the in-situ relative density
of cohesionless soils and, to a lesser degree of accuracy, the consistency of cohesive soils and
hardness of weathered bedrock. In the California barrel sampling procedure, relatively undisturbed
samples are obtained in brass liners. All samples obtained in the field were sealed and returned to the
laboratory for further examination, classification and testing.
Laboratory moisture content tests were performed on each of the recovered samples. In addition,
selected samples were tested for fines content and plasticity by washed sieve analysis and Atterberg
limits tests. Swell/consolidation tests were completed on selected samples to evaluate the subgrade
materials’ tendency to change volume with variation in moisture content and load. Several samples
were obtained from borings for Hveem Stabilometer/R-Value (ASTM Specification D2844) testing
analyses to determine the in-situ subgrade strength characteristics. The quantity of water soluble
sulfates was determined on select samples to evaluate the risk of sulfate attack on site concrete.
Results of the outlined tests are indicated on the attached boring logs and summary sheets.

As a part of the testing program, all samples were examined in the laboratory and classified in
general accordance with the attached General Notes and the Unified Soil Classification System,
based on the sample's texture and plasticity. The estimated group symbol for the Unified Soil
Classification System is shown on the boring logs and a brief description of that classification
system is included with this report. Classification of the bedrock was based on visual and tactual
observation of disturbed samples and auger cuttings. Coring and/or petrographic analysis may reveal
other rock types.
SITE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The 800-acre development is located southeast of LCR 52 and LCR 50E in Fort Collins, Colorado.
The project site is generally undeveloped farmland with a few existing structures scattered
throughout. Surface water drainage across the site is generally to the south and to the east.
Estimated relief across the site from northwest to southeast is approximately 25 to 30 feet (±).
An EEC field engineer was on-site during drilling to direct the drilling activities and evaluate the
subsurface materials encountered. Field descriptions of the materials encountered were based on
visual and tactual observation of disturbed samples and auger cuttings. The boring logs included
with this report may contain modifications to the field logs based on results of laboratory testing and
engineering evaluation. Based on results of field and laboratory evaluation, subsurface conditions
can be generalized as follows.
Sparse vegetation and topsoil were encountered at the surface of each boring. The topsoil and/or
agricultural/vegetation layers were underlain by brown lean clay with varying amounts of sand
subsoils. Some zones of clayey sand were encountered in a few of the borings. The lean clay
subsoils were generally soft to very stiff, exhibited low to moderate plasticity and low to high swell
potential at current moisture and density conditions. The lean clay subsoils were underlain by
sand/gravel with varying amounts of silt soils at depths of approximately 7 to 39 feet. The
sands/gravels extended to the depths explored, approximately 25 to 40 feet, or to the underlying
bedrock formation in a few borings.
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
October 2, 2017
Page 4
The overburden soils were underlain by bedrock consisting of interbedded layers of sandstone,
siltstone, and claystone. The sandstone/siltstone/claystone bedrock was encountered in seven (7) of
the thirty (30) preliminary test borings at depths ranging from approximately 24 to 29 feet below
existing site grades, was highly weathered and became more competent/harder with increased depth.
The bedrock formation exhibited moderate swell potential at current moisture and density
conditions. As presented herein, bedrock was encountered in borings B-4, B-6, B-19, B-20, B-24, B-
25 and B-30.
The stratification boundaries indicated on the boring logs represent the approximate locations of
changes in soil and rock types; in-situ, the transition of materials may be gradual and indistinct.
GROUNDWATER OBSERVATIONS
Observations were made while drilling and after the completion of drilling to detect the presence and
level of groundwater. Groundwater was observed in the majority of the preliminary test borings at
depths ranging from approximately 2 to 31 feet below existing site grades. Temporary field slotted
piezometers were installed in fifteen (15) of the test borings at the time of drilling and subsequent
groundwater measurements were taken on August 28 and September 8. At the time of the
subsequent measurements, groundwater was observed at depths ranging from approximately 4½ to
33 feet and 6½ to 36½ feet, respectively. As presented herein, groundwater was not encountered to
maximum depths of exploration in borings B-2 and B-8. The remaining fifteen (15) borings without
piezometers were backfilled upon completion, and therefore subsequent groundwater measurements
were not made. A diagram outlining approximate areas with relatively shallow groundwater
measurements has been provided along with a groundwater contour map, (please refer to Figure Nos.
2 and 3), included in the appendix of this report. Groundwater measurements provided with this
report are indicative of groundwater levels at the locations and at the time the borings/groundwater
measurements were completed. In general, the groundwater piezometric flow is in the south
direction.
Perched and/or trapped water may be encountered in more permeable zones in the subgrade soils at
times throughout the year. Perched water is commonly encountered in soils immediately overlying
less permeable bedrock materials. Fluctuations in ground water levels and in the location and

amount of perched water may occur over time depending on variations in hydrologic conditions,
irrigation activities on surrounding properties and other conditions not apparent at the time of this
report.
SOIL/GEOLOGIC REVIEW
The site geology presented in this report is based upon review of listed literature and maps, and
previous experience with similar geologic conditions in this area. The locations of geologic features
are approximate and should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used
to identify those features.
The surficial soils at the project site are described as eolian deposits (Pleistocene and Holocene) and
valley fill deposits (Pleistocene and Holocene), the eolian deposits are described as fine grained
sand, silt and clay and the valley fill deposits are described as arkosic gravel and sand deposit. The
upper soil is overlying the Pierre Shale Formation (Upper Cretaceous), described as a claystone
shale containing beds of sandstone and siltstone, as illustrated on the Geologic Map of the Lower
Cache La Poudre River Basin, North-Central Colorado by Lloyd A. Hershey and Paul A. Schneider,
Jr., 1972.
No seismic faults are reported within approximately twenty-five miles of the site. The Colorado
Geological Survey (CGS) reports potentially active faults at least 25 miles west-southwest of the
project site. The Fort Collins/Wellington Anticline, a small fold set, is described in the literature
immediately west of the project location. The axis of the fold is described as trending north-
northwest with asymmetrical limbs. The bedrock strata nearest to the axis is described as dipping at
approximately 10 to 15 degrees east-northeast. The dip of the bedrock strata lessens with increased
distance from the axis.

ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Swell/Consolidation Test Results
Swell/consolidation testing is performed to evaluate the swell or collapse potential of soil or bedrock to
assist in determining/evaluating foundation, floor slab and/or pavement design criteria. In the
swell/consolidation test, relatively undisturbed samples obtained directly from the California barrel
sampler are placed in a laboratory apparatus and inundated with water under a pre-established load.
The swell-index is the resulting amount of swell or collapse under the initial loading condition
expressed as a percent of the sample’s initial thickness. After the inundation period, additional
incremental loads are applied to evaluate swell pressure and/or consolidation.
As a part of our laboratory testing, we conducted twenty-nine (29) swell/consolidation tests on
samples of the overburden cohesive subsoils and underlying claystone bedrock. The swell index
values for the samples analyzed revealed low to high swell characteristics of approximately (+) 0.0
to (+) 7.6% for the overburden lean clays and approximately (+) 3.7% for the bedrock when
inundated with water and pre-loaded at 150 psf and 500 psf. Results of the laboratory swell tests are
indicated on the attached boring logs and the enclosed summary sheets. A diagram outlining
approximate areas with swell indices higher than 3% has been included with this report as an
indication of locations where swell mitigation should be considered, (please refer to Figure No. 4) in
the appendix of this report
The Colorado Association of Geotechnical Engineers (CAGE) uses the following information to
provide uniformity in terminology between geotechnical engineers to provide a relative correlation risk
performance to measured swell. “The representative percent swell values are not necessarily measured
values; rather, they are a judgment of the swell of the soil and/or bedrock profile likely to influence
slab performance.” Geotechnical engineers use this information to also evaluate the swell potential
risks for foundation performance based on the risk categories.

Moderate 3 to < 5 2 to < 4
High 5 to < 8 4 to < 6
Very High > 8 > 6
Based on the laboratory test results, the samples of overburden subsoils and the underlying bedrock
formation analyzed ranged from low to high risk.
General Considerations
If lower level construction or full-depth basements are being considered for the site, we would
suggest that the lower level subgrade(s) be placed a minimum of 3 feet above the maximum
anticipated rise in groundwater levels, or a combination exterior and interior perimeter drainage
system(s) be installed in areas with shallow groundwater, as shown on the attached diagram. Also,
consideration could be given to 1) either designing and installing an area underdrain system to lower
the groundwater levels provided a gravity discharge point can be established. If a gravity
outlet/system cannot be designed another consideration would be to design and install a mechanical
sump pump system to discharge the collected groundwater within the underdrain system, or 2)
elevate/raise the site grades to establish the minimum suggested 3-foot separation to the maximum
anticipated rise in groundwater.
Foundations for buildings that are constructed slab-on-grade (no basement) should also be placed a
minimum of 3 feet above the maximum anticipated rise in groundwater levels. During our
subsurface exploration groundwater was found at depths as shallow as 2 feet in some areas, as
shown on the attached diagram. Consideration should be given to the implementing a drainage or
grading plan, as listed above, in these areas.

Site Preparation
All existing vegetation and/or topsoil should be removed from beneath site fills, roadways or
building subgrade areas. Care should be taken to ensure that the foundations associated with any of
the existing structures in the new building areas are completely removed. Stripping depths should be
expected to vary, depending, in part, on past agricultural activities. In addition, any soft/loose native
soils or any existing fill materials without documentation of controlled fill placement should be
removed from improvement and/or new fill areas.
After stripping and completing all cuts, any over excavation, and prior to placement of any fill, floor
slabs or pavements, we recommend the exposed soils be scarified to a minimum depth of 9 inches,
adjusted in moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of the material's maximum dry density
as determined in accordance with ASTM Specification D698, the standard Proctor procedure. The
moisture content of the scarified materials should be adjusted to be within a range of 2% of
standard Proctor optimum moisture at the time of compaction.
In general, fill materials required to develop the building areas or site pavement subgrades should
consist of approved, low-volume change materials which are free from organic matter and debris.
The near surface lean clay soils with low swell potential and/or the sand/gravel soils could be used
as fill in these areas. The claystone bedrock should not be used for fill in site improvement areas.
We recommend the fill soils be placed in loose lifts not to exceed 9 inches thick, adjusted in
moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of the material’s maximum dry density as
determined in accordance with the standard Proctor procedure. The moisture content of
predominately clay soils should be adjusted to be within the range of ± 2% of optimum moisture
content at the time of placement. Granular soil should be adjusted to a workable moisture content.
Specific explorations should be completed for each building/individual residential lot to develop
recommendations specific to the proposed structure and owner/builder and for specific pavement
sections.
Care should be taken after preparation of the subgrades to avoid disturbing the subgrade materials.
Positive drainage should be developed away from structures and across and away from pavement

edges to avoid wetting of subgrade materials. Subgrade materials allowed to become wetted
subsequent to construction of the residences and/or pavements can result in unacceptable
performance of those improvements.
Areas of greater fills overlying areas with soft/compressible subsoils, especially within the deeper
utility alignments, may experience settlement due to the soft/compressible subsoils below and within
the zone of placed fill materials. Settlement on the order of 1-inch or more per each 10 feet of fill
depth would be estimated. The rate of settlement will be dependent on the type of fill material
placed and construction methods. Granular soils will consolidate essentially immediately upon
placement of overlying loads. Cohesive soils will consolidate at a slower rate. Preloading and/or
surcharging the fill areas could be considered to induce additional settlement in these areas prior to
construction of improvements in or on the fills. Unless positive steps are taken to pre-consolidate
the fill materials and/or underlying soft subgrades, special care will be needed for construction of
improvements supported on or within these areas.
Foundation Systems – General Considerations
The cohesive subsoils will require particular attention in the design and construction to reduce the
amount of movement due to moderate to high swell potential and in-situ soft/compressible
characteristics in some areas. Groundwater was also encountered at relatively shallow depths in a few
areas which will require special attention in the overall design and construction of the project. As
previously mentioned consideration could be given to the installation of an area underdrain system.
Conventional type spread footings bearing on native subsoils or engineered controlled fill material
were evaluated for use on the site; however final subsurface explorations should be performed after
building footprints and elevations have been better defined and actual design loads determined.

EEC Project No. 1172058

Page 10
Preliminary Spread Footing Foundation Recommendations
We anticipate use of conventional footing foundations could be considered for lightly to moderately
loaded structures at this site. We expect footing foundations would be supported either on the native
soils or on newly placed and compacted fills. A few soft zones were observed in the near surface
clay soils; therefore, care should be taken to see that foundations are not supported directly on soft
materials. Mitigation for swelling of the lean clay should be expected in the general areas shown on
the attached diagram and mitigation for soft subgrade soils should be expected in a few areas.
In areas where the cohesive subsoils exhibited elevated moisture contents near and/or encroaching
the groundwater levels and/or where relatively low SPT N-Blows/ft were recorded, indicating “soft
soils” we would expect these soft zones could require particular attention/ground modification
procedures to develop increased support capacity characteristics. We expect enhancing/stiffening of
the subgrade/bearing soils could be accomplished by incorporating into the soft/compressible
subsoils a layer granular rock (i.e., 1-½ inches minus crushed concrete aggregate) into the top 12 to
18 inches (+/-) of the subgrades as an initial means and method. Depending on the proximity to
groundwater and/or severity of the soft soils, overexcavation and backfill with an approved imported
structural fill material placed and compacted as outlined herein could also be considered.
We suggest an over excavation and backfill procedure be considered in areas with moderate to high
swell potential and/or soft/compressible subsoils to reduce the potential for post construction
movement. Over excavation depths should be expected to vary across the site, based on
builder/owner requirements and lot-specific conditions. After completing a site-specific/lot-specific
geotechnical exploration study, a thorough “open-hole/foundation excavation” observation should be
performed prior to foundation formwork placement to determine the extent of any over excavation
and replacement procedure. Deeper over excavation depths may be necessary depending upon the
observed subsoils at the time of the foundation excavation observation. In general, the over
excavation area would extend 8 inches laterally beyond the building perimeter for every 12 inches of
overexcavation depth. We anticipate backfill materials would consist of an approved imported
granular structural fill material such as a CDOT Class 7 aggregate base course (ABC) either native
and/or recycled concrete oriented and/or equivalent, which is placed in uniforms lifts, properly
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
October 2, 2017
Page 11
adjusted in moisture content and mechanically compacted to at least 95% of the material’s Standard
Proctor Density (ASTM D698) results.
For design of footing foundations bearing on approved native subsoils, (i.e., the native subsoils in
which expansive and/or soft/compressible conditions are not encountered), or on properly placed and
compacted fill materials as outlined above, maximum net allowable total load soil bearing pressures
on the order of 1,500 to 2,500 psf could be considered depending upon the specific backfill material
used. Footing foundations should maintain separation above maximum anticipated rise in
groundwater elevation of at least 3 feet as indicated earlier. The net bearing pressure refers to the
pressure at foundation bearing level in excess of the minimum surrounding overburden pressure.
Total load would include full dead and live loads.
Exterior foundations and foundations in unheated areas are typically located at least 30 inches below
adjacent exterior grade to provide frost protection. Formed continuous footings would have
minimum widths of 12 to 16 inches and isolated column foundations would have a minimum width
of 24 to 30 inches. Trenched foundations could probably be used in the near surface soils. If used,
trenched foundations would have a minimum width of 12 inches and formed continuous foundations
a minimum width of 8 inches.
Care should be taken to avoid placement of structures partly on native soils and partly on newly
placed fill materials to avoid differential settlement. In these areas, mitigation approaches could
include surcharging of the fill materials, overexcavation of the native soils or use of alternative
foundations, such as drilled piers, along with structural floors. Mitigation approaches may vary
between structures depending, in part, on the extent and depth of new fill placement. Specific
approaches could be established at the time of exploration for the individual structures. Care should
be taken on the site to fully document the horizontal and vertical extent of fill placement on the site,
including benching the fill into native slopes.
Preliminary Floor Slab/Exterior Flatwork Subgrades
We recommend all existing vegetation/topsoil be removed from beneath the floor slab and exterior
flatwork areas as outlined in the section titled Site Preparation. Due to the moderate to high swell
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058

Page 12
potential in areas across the site, as shown on the attached diagram, an over excavation procedure
should be considered in those areas. The over excavation should be expected to extend to depths of
2 to 3 feet, and should be done in accordance with the recommendations for foundation over
excavations. After stripping and completing all cuts and any over excavation, and prior to placement
of any flatwork concrete or fill, the exposed subgrades should be scarified, adjusted in moisture
content and compacted. If the subgrades become dry and desiccated prior to floor slab construction,
it may be necessary to rework the subgrades prior to floor slab placement.
Fill soils required to develop the floor slab subgrades should consist of approved, low-volume
change materials which are free from organic matter and debris. Those fill materials should be
placed as previously described in the section Site Preparation and surcharged/preloaded and/or
monitored as necessary to limit total and differential movement after construction of overlying
improvements.
Preliminary Basement Design and Construction
Groundwater was encountered across the site within the preliminary soil borings at approximate
depths of 2 to 36½ feet below existing site grades. If lower level construction for either garden-level
or full-depth basements is being considered for the site, we would suggest that the lower level
subgrade(s) be placed a minimum of 3 feet above maximum anticipated rise in groundwater levels,
or a combination exterior and interior perimeter drainage system(s) be installed in areas with shallow
groundwater as indicated on the attached diagram.
Consideration could be given to 1) either designing and installing an area underdrain system to
lower the groundwater levels provided a gravity discharge point can be established. If a gravity
outlet/system cannot be designed another consideration would be to design and install a mechanical
sump pump system to discharge the collected groundwater within the underdrain system, or 2)
elevate/raise the site grades to establish the minimum required 3-foot separation to the maximum
anticipated rise in groundwater EEC is available to assist in the underdrain design if requested.
For each individual building with a garden level or full-depth basement located less than 3 feet
above maximum groundwater levels, the dewatering system should, at a minimum, include an under-

slab gravel drainage layer sloped to an interior perimeter drainage system. Considerations for the
preliminary design of the combination exterior and interior perimeter drainage system are as follows:
The under-slab drainage system should consist of a properly sized perforated pipe, embedded in
free-draining gravel, placed in a trench at least 12 inches in width. The trench should be inset from
the interior edge of the nearest foundation a minimum of 12 inches. In addition, the trench should be
located such that an imaginary line extending downward at a 45-degree angle from the foundation
does not intersect the nearest edge of the trench. Gravel should extend a minimum of 3 inches
beneath the bottom of the pipe. The underslab drainage system should be sloped at a minimum 1/8
inch per foot to a suitable outlet, such as a sump and pump system.
The underslab drainage layer should consist of a minimum 6-inch thickness of free-draining gravel
meeting the specifications of ASTM C33, Size No. 57 or 67 or equivalent. Cross-connecting
drainage pipes should be provided beneath the slab at minimum 15-foot intervals, and should
discharge to the perimeter drainage system.
Sizing of drainage pipe will be dependent upon groundwater flow into the dewatering system.
Groundwater flow rates will fluctuate with permeability of the soils to be dewatered and the depth to
which groundwater may rise in the future. Pump tests to determine groundwater flow rates are
recommended in order to properly design the system. For preliminary design purposes, the drainage
pipe, sump and pump system should be sized for a projected flow of 0.5 x 10-3 cubic feet per second
(cfs) per lineal foot of drainage pipe. Additional recommendations can be provided upon request
and should be presented in final subsurface exploration reports for each residential/commercial lot.
The exterior drainage system should be constructed around the exterior perimeter of the lower
level/below grade foundation system, and sloped at a minimum 1/8 inch per foot to a suitable outlet,
such as a sump and pump system.
The exterior drainage system should consist of a properly sized perforated pipe, embedded in free-
draining gravel, placed in a trench at least 12 inches in width. Gravel should extend a minimum of 3
inches beneath the bottom of the pipe, and at least 2 feet above the bottom of the foundation wall.
The system should be underlain with a polyethylene moisture barrier, sealed to the foundation walls,

and extended at least to the edge of the backfill zone. The gravel should be covered with drainage
fabric prior to placement of foundation backfill.
Preliminary Pavement Subgrades
The average swell index for the preliminary test borings is above the LCUASS pavement design
standard maximum value of 2%. Therefore, a swell mitigation plan consisting of a 2 to 3 foot over
excavation and replacement concept or fly ash treatment of the subgrades should be considered
within roadway alignments in areas with swell indices above 2%.
All existing vegetation and/or topsoil and any soft or loose materials should be removed from
pavement areas. After stripping, completing all cuts, and any over excavation, and prior to
placement of any fill or pavements, we recommend the exposed soils be scarified to a minimum
depth of 9 inches, adjusted in moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of the material's
maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM Specification D698, the standard
Proctor procedure. The moisture content of the scarified soils should be adjusted to be within the
range of 2% of standard Proctor optimum moisture.
Fill materials required to develop the pavement subgrades should consist of approved, low-volume
change materials, free from organic matter and debris. The near surface lean clay and/or clayey sand
soils could be used for fill in these areas. We recommend those fill soils be placed in loose lifts not
to exceed 9 inches thick, adjusted in moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of the
material's standard Proctor maximum dry density. Settlement in the fill areas should be expected as
previously outlined with possible mitigation including surcharging or preloading.
After completion of the pavement subgrades, care should be taken to prevent disturbance of those
materials prior to placement of the overlying pavements. Soils which are disturbed by construction
activities should be reworked in-place or, if necessary, removed and replaced prior to placement of
overlying fill or pavements.
Depending on final site grading and/or weather conditions at the time of pavement construction,
stabilization of a portion of the site pavement subgrades may be required to develop suitable

pavement subgrades. The site clayey soils could be subject to instability at higher moisture contents.
Stabilization could also be considered as part of the pavement design, although prior to finalizing
those sections, a stabilization mix design would be required.
Preliminary Site Pavements
Pavement sections are based on traffic volumes and subgrade strength characteristics. Based on the
results of our laboratory testing, an R-value of 14 would be appropriate for design of the pavements
supported on the subgrade soils. Suggested preliminary pavement sections for the local residential
and minor collector roadways are provided below in Table II. Thicker pavement sections may be
required for roadways classified as major collectors. A final pavement design thickness evaluation
will be determined when a pavement design exploration is completed (after subgrades are developed
to ± 6 inches of design and wet utilities installed in the roadways). The projected traffic may vary
from the traffic assumed from the roadway classification based on a site-specific traffic study.

Asphalt surfacing should consist of grading S-75 or SX-75 hot bituminous pavement with PG 64-22
or PG 58-28 binder in accordance with Town of Windsor requirements. Aggregate base should be
consistent with CDOT requirements for Class 5 or Class 6 aggregate base. A suggested specification
for stabilization of the subgrades with class C fly ash is included with this report.
As previously mentioned a final subgrade investigation and pavement design should be performed in
general accordance with the LCUASS Pavement Design Criteria prior to placement of any pavement
sections, to determine the required pavement section after design configurations, roadway utilities
have been installed and roadway have been prepared to “rough” subgrade elevations have been
completed.
Detention Ponds
It is expected that various detention ponds may be designed/constructed throughout the site.
Detention ponds are generally designed to collect surface water and/or roof runoff for the project as
a temporary “holding basin” over time and eventually discharge the water into the storm sewer
drainage system. Depending upon the final design depth of the detention ponds, and due to the
potential for groundwater fluctuations to become elevated and enter the ponds, as well as the
permeability characteristics of the on-site cohesive materials, consideration could be given to lining
the pond bottom of the ponds with the on-site clay soils and/or approved imported cohesive soils, to
prevent groundwater intrusion from entering the pond. Sand and gravel generally exhibit high soil
percolation/permeability characteristics allowing for an increase in infiltration, not conducive for
containing water. In general, the bottom of any unlined detention pond should be at least 3-feet
above the maximum anticipate rise in groundwater. After site configurations and detention pond
elevations have been more defined we can provide additional geotechnical exploration activities,
laboratory testing and lining recommendations upon request.
Underground Utility Systems
All piping should be adequately bedded for proper load distribution. It is suggested that clean, graded
gravel compacted to 70 percent of Relative Density ASTM D4253 be used as bedding. Where utilities
are excavated below groundwater, temporary dewatering will be required during excavation, pipe

placement and backfilling operations for proper construction. Utility trenches should be excavated on
safe and stable slopes in accordance with OSHA regulations as further discussed herein. Backfill
should consist of the on-site soils or approved imported materials. The pipe backfill should be
compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of Standard Proctor Density ASTM D698.
Water Soluble Sulfates – (SO4)
The water soluble sulfate (SO4) testing of the on-site subgrade material collected during our
subsurface exploration is provided in the following table below. Based on the reported sulfate
contents test results, this report includes a recommendation for the CLASS or TYPE of cement for
use for contact in association with the on-site subsoils.

Based on the results as presented in Table VI above, ACI 318, Section 4.2 indicates the site
overburden soils have a severe risk of sulfate attack on Portland cement concrete. Therefore Class 2
or Type V cement should be used for concrete on and below site grade within the on-site overburden
soils. Foundation concrete should be designed in accordance with the provisions of the ACI Design
Manual, Section 318, Chapter 4. These results are being compared to the following table.

Other Considerations and Recommendations
Groundwater was observed at depths of approximately 2 to 36½ feet below present site grades.
Excavations extending to the wetter soils could create difficulties for backfilling of the sewer
trenches with drying of the subgrade soils required to use those materials as backfill. In general, the
subgrade soils could be used as overlot fill and backfill soils although care will be necessary to
maintain sufficient moisture to reduce potential for post-construction movement.
Although evidence of fills or underground facilities such as septic tanks, cesspools, basements, and
utilities was not observed during the site reconnaissance, such features could be encountered during
construction. If unexpected fills or underground facilities are encountered, such features should be
removed and the excavation thoroughly cleaned prior to backfill placement and/or construction.
Excavations into the on-site soils will encounter a variety of conditions. Excavations into the clays
and bedrock can be expected to stand on relatively steep temporary slopes during construction;
however, caving soils may also be encountered especially in close proximity to the groundwater
table, as well as in the sand/gravel zones below the overlying clay soils. Groundwater seepage
should also be anticipated for utility excavations. Pumping from sumps may be utilized to control
water within the excavations. Well points may be required for significant groundwater flow, or
where excavations penetrate groundwater to a significant depth. 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.

Positive drainage should be developed away from the structures and pavement areas with a
minimum slope of 1 inch per foot for the first 10 feet away from the improvements in landscape
areas. Care should be taken in planning of landscaping (if required) adjacent to the buildings to
avoid features which would pond water adjacent to the foundations or stemwalls. Placement of
plants which require irrigation systems or could result in fluctuations of the moisture content of the
subgrade material should be avoided adjacent to site improvements. Irrigation systems should not be
placed within 5 feet of the perimeter of the buildings and parking areas. Spray heads should be
designed not to spray water on or immediately adjacent to the structures or site pavements. Roof
drains should be designed to discharge at least 5 feet away from the structures and away from the
pavement areas.
GENERAL COMMENTS
The analysis and recommendations presented in this report are based upon the data obtained from
the soil borings performed at the indicated locations and from any other information discussed in this
report. This report does not reflect any variations which may occur between borings or across the
site. The nature and extent of such variations may not become evident until construction. If
variations appear evident, it will be necessary to re-evaluate the recommendations of this report.
Site specific explorations will be necessary for the proposed site buildings.
It is recommended that the geotechnical engineer be retained to review the plans and specifications
so that comments can be made regarding the interpretation and implementation of our geotechnical
recommendations in the design and specifications. It is further recommended that the geotechnical
engineer be retained for testing and observations during earthwork and foundation construction
phases to help determine that the design requirements are fulfilled.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Chase Merritt for specific application to the
project discussed and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical
engineering practices. No warranty, express or implied, is made. In the event that any changes in
the nature, design or location of the project as outlined in this report are planned, the conclusions
and recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered valid unless the changes are

DESCRIPTIVE SOIL CLASSIFICATION
Soil Classification is based on the Unified Soil Classification
system and the ASTM Designations D‐2488. Coarse Grained
Soils have move than 50% of their dry weight retained on a
#200 sieve; they are described as: boulders, cobbles, gravel or
sand. Fine Grained Soils have less than 50% of their dry weight
retained on a #200 sieve; they are described as : clays, if they
are plastic, and silts if they are slightly plastic or non‐plastic.
Major constituents may be added as modifiers and minor
constituents may be added according to the relative
proportions based on grain size. In addition to gradation,
coarse grained soils are defined on the basis of their relative in‐
place density and fine grained soils on the basis of their
consistency. Example: Lean clay with sand, trace gravel, stiff
(CL); silty sand, trace gravel, medium dense (SM).
