For this exploration, nine (9) soil borings were drilled on January 31, 2018 at preselect locations accessible to our drilling equipment within the footprint of the proposed approximate 156,650 gross square foot (GSF), or approximately 31,300 SF per level, in plan-line dimensions, 5-story mixed use development project with an at grade parking structure and retail space on main level, and 4-stories of residential/apartments above. The site for the planned construction is at 232 Willow Street within the River Downtown Redevelopment (RDR) District in Old Town Fort Collins, Colorado. The borings were extended to approximate depths of 15 to 30 feet below present site grades. This study was completed in general accordance with our updated/revised proposal dated January 24, 2018. In summary, the subsurface soils encountered, in general, consisted of a surficial layer of aggregate base course (ABC) and/or sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand with variable amounts of gravel which extended to the underlying sand and gravel with occasional cobbles at depths of approximately 4 to 6 feet below existing site grades. Portions of the near surface soils were identified as fill material on the order of 1 to 6 feet below existing site grades. The sand and gravel with varying fines and intermittent cobbles extended to the bedrock formation below. Siltstone/sandstone bedrock was encountered in each of the borings at depths of approximately 11 to 14 feet below existing site grades and extended to the depths explored, approximately 15 to 30 feet. At the time of drilling free water was not encountered across the site to the depths explored. SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION REPORT PROPOSED 232 WILLOW STREET 5-STORY MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT FORT COLLINS, COLORADO EEC PROJECT NO. 1182008 February 23, 2018 INTRODUCTION The subsurface exploration for the proposed 5-story mixed use building planned for construction at 232 Willow Street in Fort Collins, Colorado, has been completed. For this exploration, nine (9) soil borings extending to depths of approximately 15 to 30 feet below present site grades were drilled on January 31, 2018 at pre-selected locations within the proposed development area. Boring B-10 was not drilled at the request of Paragon Consulting Group (PCG) due to existing/on-going environmental concerns and utilities in the general vicinity. For additional information regarding environmental concerns consult PCG. Additional Geotech services could be provided at boring B- 10 at the approval/direction of PCG. This exploration was completed in general accordance with our updated/revised proposal dated January 24, 2018. We understand for this project an approximate 156,650 gross square foot (GSF), or approximately 31,300 square foot (SF) per level in plan-line dimension, 5-story mixed use building with at grade parking and retail space and 4-stories of residential/apartment above and associated site pavements. Currently the site is occupied by an existing metal frame single-story storage type warehouse building towards the north end of the site with surrounding areas having gravel surfacing. The existing building on the southern portion of the site will be demolished prior to construction of the new building. Foundation loads for the new structure are estimated to be moderate to high with wall and column loads on the order of 1 to 5 klf and 25 to 350 kips, respectively. Floor loads are expected to be light. Minor grade changes are expected to develop final site grades. The purpose of this report is to describe the subsurface conditions encountered in the test borings, analyze and evaluate the test data and provide geotechnical recommendations concerning design and construction of foundations and support of floor slabs for the new building and site pavements. EXPLORATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES The boring locations were established in the field by representatives from Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC (EEC) by pacing and estimating angles from identifiable site features. The borings were positioned in locations accessible to our drilling equipment. Those approximate boring Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 2 locations are indicated on the attached boring location diagram. The locations of the borings 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 included with this report. The test borings were completed using a truck mounted, CME-75 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 advanced into the ground with a 140-pound hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The number of blows required to advance the split barrel and California barrel 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 intact samples are obtained in removable brass liners. All samples obtained in the field were sealed and returned to our laboratory for further examination, classification, and testing. Laboratory moisture content tests were completed on each of the recovered samples. Atterberg Limits and washed sieve analysis tests were completed on selected samples to evaluate the quantity and plasticity of fines in the subgrade samples. Swell/consolidation tests were completed on selected samples to evaluate the potential for the subgrade materials to change volume with variation in moisture and load. Soluble sulfate tests were completed on selected samples to evaluate potential adverse reactions to site-cast concrete. Results of the outlined tests are indicated herein and/or on the attached boring logs and summary sheets. As part of the testing program, all samples were examined in the laboratory by an engineer and classified in general accordance with the attached General Notes and the Unified Soil Classification System, based on the soil’s texture and plasticity. The estimated group symbol for the Unified Soil Classification System is indicated 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. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 3 SITE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The referenced site is generally gravel surface yard areas with several parked semi-trucks and an existing metal frame single-story storage type warehouse building towards the north end of the site. The area is relatively flat. Based on results of the field borings and laboratory testing, subsurface conditions can be generalized as follows. At the surface of the borings, in general, was a layer of surficial aggregate base course (ABC) and/or sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand with variable amounts of gravel fill material which extended to depths of approximately 1 to 6 feet below existing site grades to the underlying apparent native sand and gravel material with variable silt in boring B-4 or to the apparent native sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand in the remaining borings. The apparent native sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand with occasional gravels encountered in borings B-1 through B-3 and borings B-5 through B-9 extended to the underlying sand and gravel material with variable silt at depths of approximately 4 to 6 feet below existing site grades. The apparent native sand and gravel material with variable silt encountered in boring B-4 underlying the apparent fill materials and underlying the apparent native sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand material in the remaining borings extended to the underlying siltstone/sandstone bedrock. As presented on the enclosed boring logs, interbedded cobbles were encountered at increased depths. The near surface apparent fill and native sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand materials, in general, were medium stiff to very stiff in consistency and loose to medium dense in relative density, exhibited low to nil swell potential and low to moderate bearing capacity characteristics. The sand and gravel materials materials, in general, were medium dense to very dense in relative density, exhibited low to nil swell potential and moderate to high bearing capacity characteristics. Siltstone/sandstone bedrock was encountered in each of the borings at depths of approximately 11 to 14 feet below existing site grades and extended to the depths explored, approximately 15 to 30 feet. The siltstone/sandstone bedrock, in general, was cemented to well cemented, demonstrated high bearing capacity characteristics, and low to nil swell potential. 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 CONDITIONS Observations were made while drilling and after completion of the borings to detect the presence and depth to hydrostatic groundwater. At the time of drilling, free water was not encountered in any of the borings to the depths explored, approximately 15 to 30 feet below existing site grades. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 4 Fluctuations in groundwater levels can occur over time depending on variations in hydrologic conditions and other conditions not apparent at the time of this report. Longer term monitoring of water levels in cased wells, which are sealed from the influence of surface water would be required to more accurately evaluate fluctuations in groundwater levels at the site. We have typically noted deepest groundwater levels in late winter and shallowest groundwater levels in mid to late summer. Zones of perched and/or trapped water can be encountered at times throughout the year in more permeable zones in the subgrade soils and perched water is commonly observed in subgrade soils immediately above lower permeability bedrock. ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: General Considerations The site appears suitable for the proposed development based on the subsurface conditions observed at the test boring locations; however, certain precautions will be required in the design and construction addressing the near surface variable fill, underlying sand and gravel with cobbles, and penetration of the underlying well cemented sandstone bedrock lenses. It is anticipated that excavations for the proposed construction can be accomplished with conventional earthmoving equipment. However, excavations penetrating the well-cemented sandstone bedrock may require the use of specialized heavy-duty equipment such as a rock hammer or core barrel to achieve final design elevations. Consideration should be given to obtaining a unit price for difficult excavation in the contract documents for the project. Swell/Consolidation Test Results As a part of our laboratory testing, we conducted five (5) swell/consolidation tests on samples of the overburden materials and underlying bedrock. The swell index values for the samples analyzed revealed low to nil swell characteristics when inundated with water and pre-loaded at 150 psf, 500 psf and 1000 psf, as well as exhibiting a slight tendency to hydro-compact and consolidate with the addition of water and increased loads. Results of the laboratory swell tests are indicated in the table below, on the attached boring logs, and on the enclosed summary sheets. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 5 TABLE I - Swell Consolidation Test Results Boring No. Depth, ft.

Site Preparation We understand the existing building near the north end of the site along with any associated site improvements will be demolished/removed from the site prior to the construction of the new development. In addition, any uncontrolled fill material that may be encountered during the excavation phases, should be removed from improvement and/or fill areas on the site. Demolition of the existing structures, concrete sidewalks, pavement and other miscellaneous features should include complete removal of all concrete or debris within the proposed construction area. Site preparation should include removal of any loose backfill found adjacent to the existing site structures/improvements. All materials derived from the demolition of the existing building, Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 6 pavements, sidewalks or other site improvements should be removed from the site and not be allowed for use in any on-site fills. Any demolition activities in the general vicinity of our boring B- 10, PCG should also be consulted to provide environmental related guidance. Although final site grades were not available at the time of this report, based on our understanding of the proposed development, we expect minor cuts and fills may be necessary to achieve design grades in the improvement areas. After completing all cuts, 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 depth of 9-inches, adjusted in moisture content to within ±2% of standard Proctor optimum moisture content for essentially cohesive materials or to a workable moisture content for cohesionless materials and compacted to at least 95% of the material's standard Proctor maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM Specification D698. Fill soils required for developing the buildings and site subgrades, after the initial zone has been prepared or stabilized where necessary, should consist of approved, low-volume-change materials, which are free from organic matter and debris. It is our opinion the on-site sandy lean clay to clayey/silty sand and sand and gravel with varying silt material could be used as general site fill material, provided adequate moisture treatment and compaction procedures are followed. Due to potential site environmental concerns PCG should be consulted on potential reuse of site materials. We recommend all fill and backfill materials, be placed in loose lifts not to exceed 9 inches thick and adjusted in moisture content and compacted as recommended for the scarified soils above. Care should be exercised after preparation of the subgrades to avoid disturbing the subgrade materials. Positive drainage should be developed away from the structure to avoid wetting of subgrade materials. Foundation Systems – General Considerations The site appears suitable for the proposed construction based on the results of our field exploration and our understanding of the proposed development plans. Due to an existing covenant related to environmental concerns for the referenced site, site groundwater shall not be used for domestic, agricultural, commercial or other use and activities that disturb site soils shall be minimized to the extent practical. With the proposed 5-story building with at grade parking, to reduce the required disturbance of site soils, straight shaft drilled piers extending into the siltstone/sandstone bedrock should be Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 7 considered. The following foundation system was evaluated for use on the site for the proposed building development.  Straight shaft drilled piers bearing in the underlying bedrock formation for the proposed 5-story building with at grade parking. Drilled Piers/Caissons Foundations Based on the subgrade conditions observed in the test borings and the anticipated foundation loads, we recommend supporting the proposed building on a grade beam and straight shaft drilled pier/caisson foundation system extending into the underlying bedrock formation. Particular attention will be required in the construction of drilled piers due to the presence of essentially cohesionless materials, occasional cobbles, zones of well cemented sandstone and likely presence of perched groundwater. For removal of cobbles at increased depths, consideration should be given to the use of 24-inch diameter drilled piers. For axial compression loads, the drilled piers could be designed using a maximum end bearing pressure of 40,000 pounds per square foot (psf), along with a skin-friction of 4,000 psf for the portion of the pier extended into the underlying firm and/or harder bedrock formation. Lower values may be appropriate for pier “groupings” depending on the pier diameters and spacing. Pile groups should be evaluated individually. Straight shaft piers should be drilled a minimum of 5 feet into competent or harder bedrock with minimum shaft lengths of 20-feet are recommended. To satisfy forces in the horizontal direction, piers may be designed for lateral loads using a modulus of 100 tons per cubic foot (tcf) for the portion of the pier in the fine to course granular subsoils, and 400 tcf in bedrock for a pier diameter of 12 inches. The coefficient of subgrade reaction for varying pier diameters are as follows and generally conform to the formula of kh = 100/D, or 400/D, respectively, for cohesionless soils and bedrock, in which D = pier diameter in feet: Pier Diameter (inches) Coefficient of Subgrade Reaction (tons/ft3) Cohesive Soils Engineered Fill or Granular Soils Bedrock 18 33 50 267 24 25 38 200 30 20 30 160 36 17 25 133 Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 8 When the lateral capacity of drilled piers is evaluated by the L-Pile (COM 624) computer program, we recommend that internally generated load-deformation (P-Y) curves be used. The following parameters may be used for the design of laterally loaded piers, using the L-Pile (COM 624) computer program: Parameters Native Granular Soils or Structural Fill Bedrock Unit Weight of Soil (pcf) 130 (1) 125(1) Average Undrained Shear Strength (psf) 0 5,000 Angle of Internal Friction () (degrees) 35 25 Coefficient of Subgrade Reaction, ks & kc (pci) 800-static 500 – cyclic 2,000 – static 800 - cyclic Strain, 50 (%) (2) --- 0.004 *Notes: 1) Reduced by 62.4 PCF below the water table 2) The 50 values represent the strain corresponding to 50 percent of the maximum principal stress difference. The modulus of subgrade reaction for static (ks) and cyclical (kc) are used by the L-Pile computer programs to generate the slope of the initial portion of the “p-y curves.” All piers should be reinforced full depth for the applied axial, lateral, and uplift stresses imposed. The amount of reinforcing steel for expansion should be determined by the tensile force created by the uplift force on each pier, with allowance for dead load. Drilling caissons to design depth should be possible with conventional heavy-duty single flight power augers equipped with rock teeth on the majority of the site. However, areas of well-cemented sandstone bedrock lenses may be encountered throughout the site at various depths where specialized drilling equipment and/or rock excavating equipment may be required. Excavation penetrating the well-cemented sandstone bedrock may require the use of specialized heavy-duty equipment, together with rock augers and/or core barrels. Consideration should be given to obtaining a unit price for difficult caisson excavation in the contract documents for the project. With granular soils encountered on-site, as well as removal and/or drilling within large sized cobbles zones, maintaining shafts may be difficult without stabilizing measures. We expect temporary casing will be required to adequately/properly drill and clean piers prior to concrete placement. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 9 Groundwater, if encountered, should be removed from each pier hole prior to concrete placement. Pier concrete should be placed immediately after completion of drilling and cleaning. A maximum 3-inch depth of groundwater is acceptable in each pier prior to concrete placement. If pier concrete cannot be placed in dry conditions, a tremie should be used for concrete placement. Due to potential sloughing and raveling, foundation concrete quantities may exceed calculated geometric volumes. Pier concrete with slump in the range of 6 to 8 inches is recommended. Casing used for pier construction should be withdrawn in a slow continuous manner maintaining a sufficient head of concrete to prevent infiltration of water or the creation of voids in pier concrete. Variable cobbles may be encountered in the granular materials overlying the siltstone/sandstone bedrock. We suggest using larger diameter drilled piers, such as 24-inch or larger, to allow for extraction of cobbles through the drilling process. Foundation excavations should be observed by the geotechnical engineer. A representative of the geotechnical engineer should inspect the bearing surface and pier configuration. Representation and/or supplemental consultation services from PCG may be necessary during caisson installation due to potential environmental related concerns. If the soil conditions encountered differ from those presented in this report, supplemental recommendations may be required. We estimate the long-term settlement of drilled pier foundations designed and constructed as outlined above would be less than 1-inch. Seismic Site Classification The site soil conditions consist of approximately 11-14 feet of medium stiff to very stiff and/or dense to very dense overburden soils overlying cemented to well cemented siltstone/sandstone bedrock which extended to the depths explored, approximately 15 to 30 feet below existing site grades. For those site conditions, the 2015 International Building Code indicates a Seismic Site Classification of C. Floor Slab/Pavement/Flatwork Subgrades – General Considerations Due to the covenant related to environmental concerns for the referenced site, activities that disturb site soils shall be minimized to the extent practical. With variable amounts of fill on the site and to minimize Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 10 disturbance of site soils, consideration could be given to a structural slab system for the building. With the understanding of greater potential movement, and activities that disturb site soils, consideration could be given to over excavation of all or portions of the existing fills and replace in general accordance with the recommendations provided in the Site Preparation section of this report for the building slab, area flatwork and pavements. The following subgrade preparation options in order of least risk to greatest risk were evaluated for use on the site for the proposed site development.  For the building: Use of a structural floor system structurally supported independent of the underlying subsoils in conjunction with the proposed drilled pier foundation system.  For the building/pavement/flatwork: Over excavate previously placed fill materials to native materials and replace with approved on-site or import materials to proposed grades to allow for a conventional slab-on-grade.  For the building/pavement/flatwork: Over excavate at least three (3) feet of previously placed fill material below proposed subgrades and replace with approved on-site or imported materials to proposed grades to allow for a conventional slab-on-grade. Floor Slab/Pavement/Flatwork Subgrades If the over excavation and replacement method for the building is selected, and for preparation of pavement/flatwork areas, after completing all cuts and prior to placement of any fill, floor slabs, pavements or flatwork, we recommend the in-place materials be proof rolled with heavy construction equipment to help locate any soft or loose materials in the exposed subgrades. After completing all cuts including removal of existing fill (over excavation depths dependent on amount of fill encountered and/or acceptable risk by owner), and prior to placement of fill and floor slabs, pavements or flatwork, we recommend the top 9 inches of the exposed subgrades be scarified and recompacted as outlined in the Site Preparation section of this report. We recommend fill materials required to develop the subgrades consist of approved, low-volume change materials which are free from organic matter and debris as recommended in the Site Preparation section of this report. Although gravel bedding would not be required beneath the floor slabs to provide floor slab support, a gravel leveling course could be considered. Positive drainage should be developed away from the building and site improvements to reduce potential for wetting of the subgrades. Typically, a minimum slope away from the building of 1 inch per foot for the first 10 feet is recommended. Flatter slopes may be used in flatwork areas. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 11 Pavements We expect the site pavements will include areas designated for low volume automobile and light truck traffic. We are using an assumed equivalent daily load axle (EDLA) rating of 5. Recompacting and proofrolling the subgrade is recommended immediately prior to placement of the aggregate road base section. Soft or weak areas delineated by the proofrolling operations should be undercut or stabilized in-place to achieve the appropriate subgrade support. Based on the subsurface conditions encountered at the site, and the laboratory test results, it is recommended the on-site drives and parking areas be designed using an assumed R-value of 10. Pumping conditions could develop within higher moisture content on-site essentially cohesive soils. Subgrade stabilization could be needed to develop a stable subgrade for paving. A stabilized subgrade could also reduce the overlying pavement structure. Stabilization, if needed, would include incorporating approximately 12 percent, by weight, Class C fly ash into the upper 12-inches of subgrade. Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) underlain by crushed aggregate base course with or without a fly ash treated subgrade, and non-reinforced concrete pavement could be considered for the proposed on-site paved sections. Eliminating the risk of movement within the proposed pavement section may not be feasible due to the characteristics of the subsurface materials; but it may be possible to further reduce the risk of movement if significantly more expensive subgrade stabilization measures are used during construction. We would be pleased to discuss other construction alternatives with you upon request. Pavement design methods are intended to provide structural sections with adequate thickness over a particular subgrade such that wheel loads are reduced to a level the subgrade can support. The support characteristics of the subgrade for pavement design do not account for shrink/swell movements of an expansive clay subgrade or consolidation of a wetted subgrade. Thus, the pavement may be adequate from a structural standpoint, yet still experience cracking and deformation due to shrink/swell related movement of the subgrade. It is, therefore, important to minimize moisture changes in the subgrade to reduce shrink/swell movements. Recommended pavement sections are provided in the table below. The hot bituminous pavement (HBP) could be grading SX (75) or S (75) with PG 58-28 oil. The aggregate base should be Class 5 Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 12 or Class 6 base. Portland cement concrete for pavements should be a pavement design mix with a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 4000 psi and should be air entrained.

Longitudinal and transverse joints should be provided as needed in concrete pavements for expansion/contraction and isolation. The location and extent of joints should be based upon the final pavement geometry. Sawed joints should be cut in general accordance with ACI recommendations. All joints should be sealed to prevent entry of foreign material and dowelled where necessary for load transfer. The collection and diversion of surface drainage away from paved areas is critical to the satisfactory performance of the pavement. Drainage design should provide for the removal of water from paved areas in order to reduce the potential for wetting of the subgrade soils. Long-term pavement performance will be dependent upon several factors, including maintaining subgrade moisture levels and providing for preventive maintenance. The following recommendations should be considered the minimum: Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 13  The subgrade and the pavement surface should be adequately sloped to promote proper surface drainage.  Install pavement drainage surrounding areas anticipated for frequent wetting (e.g. garden centers, wash racks)  Install joint sealant and seal cracks immediately,  Seal all landscaped areas in, or adjacent to pavements to minimize or prevent moisture migration to subgrade soils;  Placing compacted, low permeability backfill against the exterior side of curb and gutter; and,  Placing curb, gutter, and/or sidewalk directly on approved proof rolled subgrade soils. Preventive maintenance should be planned and provided for through an on-going pavement management program. Preventive maintenance activities are intended to slow the rate of pavement deterioration, and to preserve the pavement investment. Preventive maintenance consists of both localized maintenance (e.g. crack and joint sealing and patching) and global maintenance (e.g. surface sealing). Preventive maintenance is usually the first priority when implementing a planned pavement maintenance program and provides the highest return on investment for pavements. Prior to implementing any maintenance, additional engineering observation is recommended to determine the type and extent of preventive maintenance. Site grading is generally accomplished early in the construction phase. However, as construction proceeds, the subgrade may be disturbed due to utility excavations, construction traffic, desiccation, or rainfall. 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, such as but not limited to drying, or excessive rutting. If disturbance has occurred, pavement subgrade areas should be reworked, moisture conditioned, and properly compacted to the recommendations in this report immediately prior to paving. Please note that if during or after placement of the stabilization or initial lift of pavement, the area is observed to be yielding under vehicle traffic or construction equipment, it is recommended that EEC be contacted for additional alternative methods of stabilization, or a change in the pavement section. Water-Soluble Sulfates (SO4) The water-soluble sulfate (SO4) testing of the on-site overburden and bedrock materials taken during our subsurface exploration at varying depths are provided in the table below. Based on the reported Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 14 sulfate content test results, this report includes a recommendation for the CLASS or TYPE of cement for use for contact in association with the on-site overburden and bedrock. TABLE IV - Water Soluble Sulfate Test Results Sample Location Description Soluble Sulfate Content (mg/kg) Soluble Sulfate Content (%) B-1, S-4 @ 19’ Siltstone / Sandstone 100 0.01 B-2, S-2 @ 4’ Sand and Gravel with Silt 130 0.01 B-5, S-3 @ 9’ Sand and Gravel 90 0.01 Based on the results as presented in the table above, ACI 318, Section 4.2 indicates the site overburden soils and bedrock generally have a low risk of sulfate attack on Portland cement concrete. Therefore, Class 0 and Type I or Type I/II cement could be used for concrete on and below site grades within the overburden soils and/or bedrock. Foundation concrete should be designed in accordance with the provisions of the ACI Design Manual, Section 318, Chapter 4. Other Considerations Positive drainage should be developed away from the structure with a minimum slope of 1-inch per foot for the first 10-feet away from the improvements in landscape areas. Flatter slopes could be used in hardscapes areas although positive drainage should be maintained. Care should be taken in planning of landscaping adjacent to the building and site improvement areas to avoid features which would pond water adjacent to those elements. 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. Excavations into the on-site soils may encounter a variety of conditions. If excavations extend into the underlying cohesionless granular strata, caving soils may be encountered. 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. Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC EEC Project No. 1182008 February 23, 2018 Page 15 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. It is recommended that the geotechnical engineer be retained to review the plans and specifications so 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 phases to help determine that the design requirements are fulfilled. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use for CA Ventures 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 reviewed and the conclusions of this report are modified or verified in writing by the geotechnical engineer.

WATER LEVEL MEASUREMENT SYMBOLS: WL : Water Level WS : While Sampling WCI: Wet Cave in WD : While Drilling DCI: Dry Cave in BCR: Before Casing Removal AB : After Boring ACR: After Casting Removal Water levels indicated on the boring logs are the levels measured in the borings at the time indicated. In pervious soils, the indicated 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). CONSISTENCY OF FINE‐GRAINED SOILS Unconfined Compressive Strength, Qu, psf Consistency < 500 Very Soft 500 ‐ 1,000 Soft 1,001 ‐ 2,000 Medium 2,001 ‐ 4,000 Stiff 4,001 ‐ 8,000 Very Stiff 8,001 ‐ 16,000 Very Hard RELATIVE DENSITY OF COARSE‐GRAINED SOILS: N‐Blows/ft Relative Density 0‐3 Very Loose 4‐9 Loose 10‐29 Medium Dense 30‐49 Dense 50‐80 Very Dense 80 + Extremely Dense PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF BEDROCK DEGREE OF WEATHERING: Slight Slight decomposition of parent material on joints. May be color change. Moderate Some decomposition and color change throughout. High Rock highly decomposed, may be extremely broken.
