Mr. Moss:
Enclosed, herewith, are the results of the supplemental preliminary subsurface exploration
completed by Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC personnel for the referenced project. A total
of thirteen (13) preliminary soil borings were drilled on March 3 and 16, 2023 at the approximate
locations as indicated on the enclosed Boring Location Diagrams included with this report. The
borings were extended to depths of approximately 15½ to 25½ 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 February 15, 2023.
In summary, the subsurface soils encountered in the preliminary test borings generally consisted
of lean clay with varying amounts of sand soils extending to the bottom of all supplemental test
borings except at boring S-13, approximately 25 feet below the existing site grades. The lean
clay subsoils were generally medium stiff to hard, exhibited low to moderate plasticity and low
to moderate swell potential at current moisture and density conditions. At boring S-13, and
borings B-3 and B-5 from the preliminary borings completed on August 2018, EEC Project No.
1172058B, the lean clay subsoils were underlain by sand/gravel at depths of approximately 23
feet at boring S-13 and 34 to 39 feet below the existing site grades, at borings B-3 and B-5,
respectively. The sands/gravels extended to the depths explored, approximately 25 and 40 feet
below the ground surface at boring S-13, and borings B-3 and B-5, respectively. Bedrock was
not encountered to maximum depths of exploration, approximately 15½ to 40 feet in the
preliminary borings (i.e., B-1 thru B-5 completed in 2018) and the supplemental preliminary

INTRODUCTION
The supplemental preliminary subsurface exploration for the proposed approximate 40-acre mixed
used – Montava Development, Phase G, located at the northwest corner of Mountain Vista Drive and
North Timberline Road, in Fort Collins, Colorado has been completed. For this exploration, a total
of thirteen (13) supplemental preliminary soil borings were drilled on March 3 and March 16, 2023,
at the approximate locations as indicated on the enclosed Boring Location Diagrams included with
this report. The thirteen (13) supplemental preliminary soil borings were advanced to depths of
approximately 15½ to 25½ feet below existing site grades across the proposed development property
to obtain information on existing subsurface conditions. Upon completion of the drilling operations,
six (6) of the open bore holes were converted to temporary PVC cased piezometers. Additionally,
information from a preliminary subsurface exploration completed by EEC on August 2018, EEC
Project No. 1172058B, was available to us which was referenced for preparation of this report.
Individual boring logs and site diagrams indicating the approximate boring locations are included
with this report.
We understand Phase G of the overall Montava Development is currently in the planning/design
process for single-family residential, duplex, townhomes, and mixed-use development as depicted on
the enclosed site plans provided to us by Montava Development, LLC personnel on January 3, 2023.
A proposed pedestrian underpass structure is planned in the vicinity of our supplemental boring S-12
near the intersection of Timberline Road and Mountain Vista Drive. Various boardwalk structures
are planned across the central portion of the site as depicted on the enclosed site plan. A separate
stand-alone geo-report was prepared for structures dated March 23, 2023.
Foundation loads for the proposed 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. We anticipate maximum cuts and fills on the order of approximately
7 feet (+/-) in general site areas and up to 15 feet of fill over the to be piped, No. 8 Outlet Ditch will

be completed to develop the site grades. Overall site development will include construction of
associated pavements 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 supplemental
preliminary borings, analyze and evaluate the test data and provide preliminary geotechnical
recommendations concerning site development including foundations, interior floor slabs, exterior
flatworks as well as pavement sections and the possibility for an area underdrain system to support
basement/underpass 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 and with the
aid of a hand-held GPS unit. 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 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,
select samples were tested for fines content and plasticity by washed sieve analysis and Atterberg
limits tests. Swell/consolidation tests were completed on select samples to evaluate the subgrade
materials’ tendency to change volume with variation in moisture content and load. 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.
SITE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The approximate 40-acre development property is located at the northwest corner of Timberline
Road and Mountain Vista Drive, in Fort Collins, Colorado. The project site is generally
undeveloped farmland. The No. 8 Outlet Ditch is located along the east boundary of Phase G overall
Montava Development, which per provided plans is to be piped/filled/leveled to develop the
subgrades for future pavement development. 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 15 to 20 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 lean clay with varying amounts of sand soils
extending to the bottom of all supplemental test borings except at boring S-13, approximately 25 feet

below the existing site grades. The lean clay subsoils were generally medium stiff to hard, exhibited
low to moderate plasticity and low to moderate swell potential at current moisture and density
conditions. At boring S-13, and borings B-3 and B-5 from the preliminary borings completed in
August 2018, EEC Project No. 1172058B, the lean clay subsoils were underlain by sand/gravel at
depths of approximately 23 feet at boring S-13 and 34 to 39 feet below the existing site grades, at
borings B-3 and B-5, respectively. The sands/gravels extended to the depths explored,
approximately 25 and 40 feet below the ground surface at boring S-13, and borings B-3 and B-5,
respectively. Bedrock was not encountered to maximum depths of exploration, approximately 15½
to 40 feet in the preliminary borings (i.e., B-1 thru B-5 completed in 2018) and the supplemental
preliminary borings (S-1 thru S-13 completed in March 2023).
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 on April 3, 2023, within the installed temporary
piezometers, to detect the presence and level of groundwater. At the time of drilling and on April 3,
2023, groundwater was observed in the borings S-1, and S-11 thru S-13 at depths ranging from
approximately 14½ to 24½ feet below existing site grades and was not encountered at the remaining
borings. The measured depths to groundwater are recorded near the upper right-hand corner of each
boring log included with this report. The boreholes were backfilled after follow-up measurements
on April 3, 2023, therefore subsequent groundwater measurements were not possible. The
groundwater measurements provided with this report are indicative of groundwater levels at the
location and at the time the measurements were completed.
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.

ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Swell/Consolidation Test Results
The swell-consolidation test is performed to evaluate the swell or collapse potential of soils to help
determine foundation, floor slab and pavement design criteria. In this test, relatively undisturbed
samples obtained directly from the California sampler are placed in a laboratory apparatus and
inundated with water under a predetermined load. The swell-index is the resulting amount of swell or
collapse after the inundation period expressed as a percent of the sample’s preload/initial thickness.
After the inundation period, additional incremental loads are applied to evaluate the swell pressure
and/or consolidation.
For this assessment, we conducted sixteen (16) swell-consolidation tests on relatively undisturbed
soil and bedrock samples obtained at various intervals/depths on the site. The swell index values for
the in-situ soil samples analyzed revealed low to moderate swell characteristics as indicated on the
attached swell test summaries. The (+) test results indicate the soil materials swell potential
characteristics while the (-) test results indicate the soil materials consolidation potential
characteristics when inundated with water. The following table summarizes the swell-consolidation
laboratory test results for samples obtained during our field explorations for the subject site.

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.

Based on the laboratory test results, samples of the overburden subsoils analyzed were in the low to
moderate risk category. However, near surface/pavement related swell samples inundated under an
initial pressure of 150 PSF exhibited swell potentials equal to or greater than the maximum
allowable 2% general criteria for pavements; therefore, a swell mitigation plan should be anticipated
for the pavement subgrade preparation.
Site Preparation
All existing vegetation and/or topsoil should be removed from beneath site fills, roadways or
building subgrade areas. Stripping depths should be expected to vary, depending, in part, on past
agricultural activities. In addition, any soft native soils or any existing fill materials without
documentation of controlled fill placement should be removed from improvement and/or new fill
areas. Due to the moderate swell potential of the near surface lean clay soils, we recommend a
minimum 2 feet of overexcavation and replacement below floor slabs, exterior flatwork, and
pavements.
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
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
April 5, 2023
Page 7
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 or imported granular structural fill could be used as fill in these
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.
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, especially within the deeper utility alignments, along future pavements to be
constructed on top of the existing No. 8 Outlet Ditch may experience settlement. 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, special care will be needed for
construction of improvements supported on or within these areas.
Foundation Systems – General Considerations
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.
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
April 5, 2023
Page 8
Depending on the expected building loads, alternative foundation systems could be considered, and we
would be pleased to provide additional recommendations upon request.
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.
For design of footing foundations bearing on approved native subsoils 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 fill material used.
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.
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 swell potential
of the near surface lean clay soils, an over excavation procedure should be considered below floor
slabs. The over excavation should be expected to extend to a minimum depth of 2 feet and should
extend 8 inches laterally for every 12 inches of depth. After stripping and completing all cuts and
any over excavation, and prior to placement of any flatwork concrete or fill, the exposed subgrades
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
April 5, 2023
Page 9
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.
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-foot over
excavation and replacement concept or fly ash treatment of the subgrades should be considered.
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.
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
April 5, 2023
Page 10
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
observed subsoils, an R-value of 10 would be appropriate for design of the pavements supported on
the subgrade soils. Suggested preliminary pavement sections are provided below in Table III. 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.

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.
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) content of the on-site overburden subsoils, taken during our
subsurface exploration at random locations and intervals are provided below. Based on reported
sulfate content test results, the Class/severity of sulfate exposure for concrete in contact with the on-
site subsoils is provided in this report.

Based on the results as presented above, ACI 318, Section 4.2 indicates the site’s overburden lean
clay soils have a low to severe risk of sulfate attack on Portland cement concrete, therefore, ACI
Class S2 requirements should be followed for concrete placed in the on-site soils. Foundation
concrete should be designed in accordance with the provisions of the ACI Design Manual, Section
318, Chapter 4.
Pedestrian Underpass
The project, as we understand, a includes pedestrian underpass structure situated at the Mountain
Vista Drive round-a-about intersection and at the north end along Country Club Drive in the general
vicinity of boring S-12. We anticipate maximum vertical reaction loads per abutment of
approximately 12-1/2 to 15 kips per foot. It appears the underpass will be constructed approximately
15-feet below existing site grades. Based on review of the boring S-12 completed for the underpass,
(please refer to the Log of Borings included in the Appendix of this report for S-12 and adjacent
borings), it appears the excavation will extend into the overburden lean clay with sand soils.
General
The bottom of the proposed pedestrian underpass structure is anticipated to extend into the lean clay
with sand overburden subsoils from north to the south side of Mountain Vista Drive. Due to the
moderate swell potential of the overburden subsoils and movement/differential movement underpass
structure, it is recommended to over-excavate beneath the structure, a minimum of 2-feet below the
bottom of the foundation support strata and replace with an approved imported structural fill
material. A uniform and consistent bearing strata material should be provided for both the underpass
structure and associated retaining and wing walls elements.
Site Preparation
All existing vegetation and/or topsoil should be removed from improvement and/or fill areas. After
stripping and completing all cuts and prior to placement of any fill or site improvements, we
recommend the exposed soils be scarified to a minimum depth of 9-inches, adjusted in moisture
content to within ±2% of standard Proctor optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95%
of the material's standard Proctor maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM
Specification D698.
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC
EEC Project No. 1172058
April 5, 2023
Page 13
Due to the relatively shallow groundwater depth nearing the No. 8 Outlet Ditch within close
proximity to the location of the proposed underpass development, if the over excavation below
footings nears the groundwater table and soft/compressible soils are encountered, consideration
could be given to ground modification of the subgrades prior to placement of the over excavation
backfill soils. Ground modification would consist of completing the 2-foot over excavation below
spread footings as described above. At the bottom of the 2-foot over excavation zone, to create a
working platform and stabilized zone below the fill materials, we recommend a minimum 6 to 8-inch
zone of an interlocking coarse granular, fractured face 3 to 1½ inch minus aggregate material, such
as recycled concrete or equivalent be placed and incorporated/pushed into the soft subgrade soils to
create a stable platform. Fill materials placed above the stabilized zone should consist of structural
fill in these areas. In general, over excavations should not be extended all the way into the
groundwater table. If the proposed over excavations are expected to extend into groundwater, we
should be consulted to review the recommended over excavation depth and provide revised
recommendations.
We would suggest that the pedestrian underpass foundation and retaining walls be placed a
minimum of 4 feet above the maximum anticipated rise in groundwater levels, or a combination
exterior and interior perimeter drainage system(s) be installed. 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 required 4-foot separation to the maximum anticipated rise in groundwater.
After stripping, completing all cuts, over excavation, and removing all unacceptable materials/soils,
and prior to placement of any fill or site improvements, we recommend the exposed soils be scarified
to a minimum depth of 9-inches, adjusted in moisture content to within ±2% of standard Proctor
optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of the material's standard Proctor
maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM Specification D698.

Foundation Systems – General Considerations
The following foundation system was evaluated for use for the proposed golf cart tunnel and
associate retaining wall and wing wall alignments.
• Based on the subsoils observed at the S-12 location, we believe the structure could be
supported on conventional type spread footings/mat foundation system bearing on a
minimum 2-foot zone of approved, placed and compacted imported structural fill material.
Foundation – Conventional Type Spread Footing System
Due to the potentially soft/low blow count overburden cohesive subsoils, it is our opinion the
underpass and retaining and wing walls structures foundation system could consist of a cast-in-place
concrete spread footing/mat slab system bearing on a minimum 2-foot zone of approved imported
structural fill material. For design of the foundation system, we recommend using a maximum net
allowable total load soil bearing pressure not to exceed 2000 psf. The bearing pressure refers to the
pressure at foundation bearing level in excess of the minimum surrounding overburden pressure.
Total load should include full dead and live loads.
The bearing stratum should consist of a minimum 2-foot zone of properly placed and compacted
imported granular structural fill. The over excavation below the footings should extend to depths of
at least 2 feet below foundation bearing elevation and should extend laterally in all directions beyond
the edges of the footing at least 8 inches for each 12 inches of over excavation depth below the
footing bearing. The structural fill material should be graded similar to a CDOT Class 5, 6 or 7
aggregate base. Recycled concrete base materials could also be used. The backfill materials should
be adjusted to a workable moisture content, placed in maximum 8-inch-thick loose lifts and
compacted to at least 98% of the material's standard Proctor (ASTM D698) maximum dry density.
Areas of soft/compressible cohesive subsoils across the site may require ground stabilization
procedures to create a working platform for construction equipment prior to placement of any
additional fill. If necessary, consideration could be given to placement of a granular material, such
as a 3-inch minus pit run and/or recycled concrete or equivalent material, embedded into the soft

soils, prior to placement of additional fill material or operating heavy earth-moving equipment.
Supplemental recommendations can be provided upon request.
All foundation should bear on uniform type soils, (i.e., the entire foundation system should bear on a
zone of imported structural fill material as described herein) to reduce the potential for differential
movement of dissimilar soil types. Close evaluation of the foundation bearing strata materials will
be necessary during the construction phase.
Care should be taken during construction to avoid disturbing the foundation bearing materials.
Materials which are loosened or disturbed by the construction activities or materials which become
dry and desiccated or wet and softened should be removed and replaced prior to placement of
foundation concrete. If unacceptable materials are encountered at the time of construction, it may be
necessary to extend the footings to suitable strength soils or over-excavate unacceptable materials
and replace those soils with approved fill materials. Those conditions can best be evaluated in open
excavations at the time of construction.
Based on the consistency of the subgrade soils observed at the boring locations, we anticipate the
long-term settlement of footing foundation designed and constructed outlined above would be less
than 1 inch. Support of the footings on the overburden potential soft/compressible subgrade soils
leaves some risk of post construction heaving of foundations. Over excavation and backfill
procedures could be considered to further reduce the risk of post construction movement of the
foundations.
Lateral Earth Pressures
Passive lateral earth pressures may help resist the driving forces for retaining wall or other similar
site structures. Active lateral earth pressures could be used for design of structures where some
movement of the structure is anticipated, such as retaining walls. The total deflection of structures
for design with active earth pressure is estimated to be on the order of one half of one percent of the
height of the down slope side of the structure. We recommend at-rest pressures be used for design of
structures where rotation of the walls is restrained. Passive pressures and friction between the
footing and bearing soils could be used for design of resistance to movement of retaining walls.

Coefficient values for backfill with anticipated types of soils for calculation of active, at rest and
passive earth pressures are provided in the Table V below. Those coefficient values are based on
horizontal backfill with backfill soils consisting of essentially on-site lean clay / lean clay with sand
subsoils with friction angles of 20 degrees and structural fill with friction angles of 35 degrees.
Equivalent fluid pressure is equal to the appropriate coefficient times the appropriate soil unit
weight. Care will be needed to account for buoyant soil weights and hydrostatic loading conditions
as appropriate.
For the at-rest and active earth pressures, slopes down and away from the structure would result in
reduced driving forces with slopes up and away from the structures resulting in greater forces on the
walls. The passive resistance would be reduced with slopes away from the wall. The top 30 inches
of soil on the passive resistance side of walls could be used as a surcharge load; however, the top 30
inches of soil should not be used as part of the passive resistance value. Frictional resistance is equal
to the tangent of the friction angle times the normal force. Surcharge loads or point loads placed in
the backfill can also create additional loads on below grade walls. Those situations should be
designed on an individual basis.

Young’s Modulus - Es (ksi) 0.45 2.78
Poisson’s Ratio, v 0.4 0.25
The outlined values do not include factors of safety nor allowances for hydrostatic loads and are
based on assumed friction angles and should be verified prior to construction.
To reduce hydrostatic loading on retaining walls, a subsurface drain system should be placed behind
the wall. The drain system should consist of free-draining granular soils containing less than five
percent fines (by weight) passing a No. 200 sieve placed adjacent to the wall. The free-draining

granular material should be graded to prevent the intrusion of fines or encapsulated in a suitable
filter fabric. A drainage system consisting of either weep holes or perforated drain lines (placed near
the base of the wall) should be used to intercept and discharge water which would tend to saturate
the backfill. Where used, drain lines should be embedded in a uniformly graded filter material and
provided with adequate clean-outs for periodic maintenance. A relatively impervious soil should be
used in the upper layer of backfill to reduce the potential for surface water infiltration. As an
alternative, a prefabricated drainage structure, such as geo-composite product, may be used as a
substitute for the granular backfill adjacent to the wall.
Care should be taken to develop appropriate systems in conjunction below grade walls to eliminate
potential for hydrostatic loads developing on the walls and/or design the walls to accommodate
hydrostatic load conditions.
Other Considerations and Recommendations
Excavations into the lean clay with sand/sandy lean clay soils can be expected to stand on relatively
steep temporary slopes during construction. 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.

levels may reflect the location of ground water. In low permeability soils, the accurate determination of ground water levels is not
possible with only short term observations.
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).
