ARTICLE 14—PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND
COMPLETION
Schedule of Values:
14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in
paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments
and will be incorporated into a form of Application for
Payment acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments on
account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of
units completed.
Application for Progress Payment:
14.2. At least twenty days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for
review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by
CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the
date of the Application and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as is required by the Contract
Documents. If payment is requested on the basis of
materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work but
delivered and suitably stored at the site or at another
location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment
shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other
documentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and
evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by
appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to
Protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which will be
satisfactory to OWNER. The amount of retainage with
respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the
Agreement. Any funds that are withheld by the OWNER
shall not be subject to substitution by the CONTRACTOR
with securities or any arrangements involving an escrow or
custodianship. By executing the application for payment
form the CONTRACTOR expressly waives his right to the
benefits of Colorado Revised Statute& Section 24-91-101
et seg.
CONTRACTOR's Warranty of Tide.
14.3. CONTRACTOR wan -ants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any
Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the
Project or not, will pass to OWNER no later than the time
of payment free and clear of all Liens.
Review ofApplicadons for Progress Payment.
14.4. ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of
each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Edition)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REv 4/2000)
recommendation of payment and present the Application
to OWNER, or return the Application to CONTRACTOR
indicating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR
may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the
Application. Ten days after presentation of the
Application for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's
recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject
to the provisions of the last sentence of paragraph 14.7)
become due and when due will be paid by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR.
14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a
representation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on
ENGINEER's on -site observations of the executed Work
as an experienced and qualified design professional and on
ENGINEER's review of the Application for Payment and
the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of
ENGINEER's knowledge, information and belief:
14.5.1. the Work has progressed to the point
indicated,
14.5.2. the quality of the Work is generally in
accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to
an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole
prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the results
of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Documents, to a final determination of quantities and
classifications for Unit Price Work under
paragraph 9.10, and to any other qualifications stated
in the recommendation), and
14.5.3. the conditions precedent to
CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment
appear to have been fulfilled insofar as it is
ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work.
However, by recommending any such payment
ENGINEER will not thereby be deemed to have
represented that: (i) exhaustive or continuous on -site
inspections have been trade to check the quality or the
quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities
specifically assigned to ENGINEER in the Contract
Documents or (ii) that there may not be other matters or
issues between the parties that might entitle
CONTRACTOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or
entitle OWNER to withhold payment to CONTRACTOR.
14.6. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment,
including final payment, shall not mean that ENGINEER
is responsible for CONTRACTOR's means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or
the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, or
for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with Laws
and Regulations applicable to the famishing or
performance of Work, or for any failure of
CONTRACTOR to perform or fiunish Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole
or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's opinion, it
would be incorrect to make the representations to

OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.5. ENGINEER may
also refuse to recommend any such payment, or, because of
subsequently discovered evidence or the results of
subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment
previously recommended, to such extent as may be
necessary, in ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER
from loss because:
14.7.1. the Work is defective, or completed Work has
been damaged requiring correction or replacement,
14.7.2. the Contract Price has been reduced by
Written Amendment or Change Order,
14.7.3. OWNER has been required to correct
defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
paragraph 13.14, or
14.7.4. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount
recommended by ENGINEER because:
14.7.5. claims have been made against OWNER on
account of CONTRACTOR'S performance or furnishing
of the Work,
14.7.6. Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered a
specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure the
satisfaction and discharge of such Liens,
14.7.7. there are other items entitling OWNER to a set-
off against the amount recommended, or
14.7.8. OWNER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 14.7.1 through 14.7.3 or paragraphs 15.2.1
through 15.2.4 inclusive,
but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate
written notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) stating the
reasons for such action and promptly pay CONTRACTOR
the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed
to by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when
CONTRACTOR corrects to OWNER's satisfaction the
reasons for such action.
Substantial Completion:
14.8. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that the entire Work
is substantially complete (except for items specifically
listed by CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that
ENGINEER issue a certificate of Substantial Completion
Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inspection
of the Work to determine the status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider the Work substantially
complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in
writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER
will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative certificate
of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the
certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or
corrected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven
days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which
to make written objection to ENGINEER as to any
provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after
considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that
the Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER will
within fourteen days after submission of the tentative
certificate to OWNER notify CONTRACTOR in writing,
stating the reasons therefor. If, after consideration of
OWNER's objections, ENGINEER considers the Work
substantially complete, ENGINEER will within said
fourteen days execute and deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial
Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be
completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the
tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER At the
time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial
Completion ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to division
of responsibilities pending final payment between
OWNER and CONTRACTOR with respect to security,
operation, safety, maintenance, heat, utilities, insurance
and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER and
CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform
ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing the
definitive certificate of Substantial Completion,
ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding
on OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude
CONTRACTOR from the Work after the date of
Substantial Completion, but OWNER shall allow
CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct
items on the tentative list.
Partial UNUmdon:
14.10. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of arty
substantially completed part of the Work, which: (i) has
specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or
(ii) OWNER, ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR agree
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended
purpose without significant interference with
CONTRACTOR'S performance of the remainder of the
Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial
Completion of all the Work subject to the following:
14.10.1.OWNER at any time may request
CONTRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use
any such part of the Work which OWNER believes to
be ready for its intended use and substantially
complete. If CONTRACTOR agrees that such part of
the Work is substantially complete, CONTRACTOR
will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that such
part of the Work is substantially complete and request
ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work.
E1CDC GENERAL. CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Edition)
30 µ./ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing that CONTRACTOR considers
any such part of the Work ready for its intended use
and substantially complete and request ENGINEER to
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that
Part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either
such request, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and
ENGINEER shall make an inspection of that part of
the Work to determine its status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider that part of the Work to
be substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writing giving the
reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers that part of
the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions
of paragraphs 14.8 and 14.9 will apply with respect to
certification of Substantial Completion of that part of
the Work and the division of responsibility in respect
thereof and access thereto.
14.10.2. No occupancy or separate operation of part
of the Work will be accomplished prior to compliance
with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of

the final Application for Payment, indicate in writing
ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and present
the Application to OWNER for payment. At the same
time ENGINEER will also give written notice to OWNER
and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject

ENGINEER will return the Application to
CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for
refusing to recommend final payment, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application. Thirty days after presentation to
OWNER of the Application and accompanying
documentation, in appropriate form and substance and

CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere, and
finish the Work as OWNER may deem expedient. In such

directly attributable to CONTRACTOR's stopping Work as
permitted by this paragraph.

WORK CHANGE DIRECTIVE
INSTRUCTIONS
A. GENERAL INFORMATION
This document was developed for use in situations involving changes in the Work which, if not processed
expeditiously, might delay the Project. These changes are often initiated in the field and may affect the
Contract Price or the Contract Times. This is not a Change Order, but only a directive to proceed with Work
that may be included in a subsequent Change Order.
For supplemental instructions and minor changes not involving a change in the Contract Price or the Contract
Times a Field Order should be used.
Engineer initiates the form, including a description of the items involved and attachments. _
Based on conversations between Engineer and Contractor, Engineer completes the following: -
METHOD OF DETERMINING CHANGE, IF ANY, IN CONTRACT PRICE: Mark the method to
be used in determining the final cost of Work involved and the estimated net effect on the Contract —
Price. If the change involves an increase in the Contract Price and the estimated amount is _
approached before the additional or changed Work is completed, another Work Change Directive
must be issued to change the.estimated price or Contractor may stop the changed Work when the
estimated time is reached. If the Work Change Directive is not likely to change the Contract Price,
the space for estimated increase (decrease) should be marked 'Not Applicable". _
Once Engineer has completed and signed the form, all copies should be sent to Owner for authorization
because Engineer alone does not have authority to authorize changes in Price or Times. Once authorized
by Owner, a copy should be sent by Engineer to Contractor. Price and Times may only be changed by
Change Order signed by Owner and Contractor with Engineer's recommendation.
Paragraph 10.03.A.2 of the General Conditions requires that a Change Order be initiated and processed to
cover any undisputed sum or amount of time for Work actually performed pursuant to this Work Change
Directive.
Once the Work covered by this directive is completed or final cost and times are determined, Contractor
should submit documentation for inclusion in a Change Order.
THIS IS A DIRECTIVE TO PROCEED WITH A CHANGE THAT MAY AFFECT THE CONTRACT
PRICE OR CONTRACT TIMES. A CHANGE ORDER, IF ANY, SHOULD BE CONSIDERED
PROMPTLY.

4. Do not proceed with installation of sealant over joint surfaces which have been
painted, lacquered, waterproofed or treated with water repellent or other -
treatment of coating. Remove coating or treatment joint surfaces before installing _
sealant.
5. Etch concrete masonry joint surfaces to remove excess alkalinity unless sealant -.
manufacturer's printed instruction indicated that alkalinity does not interfere with
sealant bond and performance. Etch with 5% solution of muriatic acid, neutralize
with diluted ammonia solution, rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry before
sealant installation.
B. Priming: If required, prime surfaces which are to be sealed with manufacturer's
recommended or standard primer, after surfaces have been prepared as specified.
Before use, check primers for discoloration and dirt pick-up on adjacent surfaces. If
staining occurs, after exposure, take adequate measures to prevent primer from being
applied over face of adjacent porous materials by masking or other suitable measures.

Workmanship: Employ only proven installation techniques, which will ensure that sealants
will be deposited in uniform, continuous ribbons without gaps or air pockets, with
complete 'Wetting" of joint bond surfaces equally on opposite sides.
1. Except as otherwise indicated, fill sealant rabbet to slightly concave surface, slightly
below adjoining surfaces.
2. Where horizontal joints are between horizontal surface and vertical surface, fill joint
to form slight cove, so that joint will not trap moisture and dirt.
G. Joint Sizes: Install sealants to depths as indicated or, as recommended by sealant
manufacturer but within following general limitations:
1. For normal moving joints sealed with elastomeric sealants but not subject to traffic,
fill joints to depth equal to 50% of joint width, but not more than 1 /2" deep or less
than 1 /4" deep.
2. For joints sealed with non-elastomeric sealants and caulking compounds. fill joints to
depth in range of 75% to 125% of joint width.
H. Spillage:
I. Do not allow sealants or compounds to overflow or spill onto adjoining surfaces, or
to migrate into voids of adjoining surfaces. Use masking tape or other precautionary
devices to prevent staining of adjoining surfaces, by either primer/sealer or sealant.
2. Remove excess and spillage of compounds promptly as work progresses. Clean
adjoining surfaces by whatever means may be necessary to eliminate evidence of
spillage. Do not damage adjoining surfaces or finishes.
3.04 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Samples: Where directed by Architect, cut out and remove total of three samples
consisting of undisturbed sealant and back-up material from joint. Samples shall be 6" in
length. Reseal cut out areas with same materials.

1.04 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
A. Performance Requirements;
1. General: Provide glazing systems that are produced, fabricated, and installed to
withstand normal thermal movement, wind loading, and impact loading (where
applicable), without failure including loss or glass breakage attributable to the
following: defective manufacture, fabrication, and installation; failure of sealants
or gaskets to remain watertight and airtight; deterioration of glazing materials; and
other defects in construction.
2. Glass Design: Glass thicknesses indicated in contract documents are for detailing
only. Confirm glass thicknesses by analyzing Project loads and in-service
conditions. Provide glass lites for the various size openings in the thicknesses and
strengths (annealed or heat -treated) to meet or exceed the following criteria:
a. Minimum glass thickness, nominally, of lites in exterior walls is 6.0 mm (0.23
inch).
b. Tinted and heat -absorbing glass thicknesses for each tint indicated are the
same throughout Project.
VF 2001-59 08800-1
C. Minimum glass thicknesses of lites, whether composed of annealed or heat -
treated glass, are selected so the worst -case probability of failure does not
exceed the following:
1) 8 lites per 1000 for lites set vertically or not over 150 off vertical and under
wind action. Determine minimum thickness of monolithic annealed glass
according to ASTM E1300-00. For other than monolithic annealed glass, —
determine thickness per glass manufacturer's standard method of
analysis including applying adjustment factors to ASTM El300-00 based
on type of glass.
3. Normal thermal movement results from the following maximum change (range) in
ambient and surface temperatures acting on glass -framing members and glazing
components. Base engineering calculation on materials' actual surface
temperatures due to both solar heat gain and nighttime sky heat loss.
a. Temperature Change (Range): 120 deg' (67 deg. C), ambient; 180 deg.°
(100 deg. C), material surfaces.

REPORT
OF A PRELIMINARY
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
SCOPE
This report presents the results of a preliminary geotechnical
evaluation prepared for the proposed new streets facility consisting of
remodelling of the existing buildings and construction of new buildings
and parking and detention areas for the City of Fort Collins new streets
facility to be located on Vine Drive in north Fort Collins, Colorado. The
investigation included test borings and laboratory testing of samples
obtained from these borings.
The objectives of this study were to (1) determine the geologic
characteristics of the site, (2) determine the soil and ground water
conditions at the site, (3) determine the suitability of the site for the
proposed construction, (4) make recommendations regarding parking
areas and (5) make an evaluation of Linden Street and North Lemay
Avenue adjacent to the site.
SITE EXPLORATION
The field exploration, carried out on April 10 and 11 , 1991,
consisted of drilling, logging, and sampling seventeen (17) test borings
and running six (6) percolation tests. The test borings were located by
Empire Laboratories, Inc. from the existing buildings and fence lines
using conventional chaining methods. The locations of the test borings
are shown on the Test Boring Location Plan included in Appendix A of
this report. Boring logs prepared from the field logs are included in
Appendix A. These logs show soils encountered, location of sampling,
and ground water at the time of the investigation.
The borings were advanced with a four -inch diameter, continuous -
type, power -flight auger drill. During the drilling operations, an
engineering geologist from Empire Laboratories, Inc. was present and
made continuous observations of the soils encountered.

SITE LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
The site is located south of East Vine Drive between Linden Street
and North Lemay Avenue in northeast Fort Collins, Colorado. More
particularly, the site is described as a tract of land situate in the North
112 of Section 12, Township 7 North, Range 69 West of the Sixth P.M.,
City of Fort Collins, Larimer County, Colorado.
A portion of the site is occupied by several large brick and metal
buildings. The brick buildings were part of the sugar factory which
once occupied the site. Large amounts of PVC pipe are stacked west of
the building, and debris is scattered throughout much of the eastern
portion of the site. The southwest portion of the site is a grassed area
used for grazing. The eastern portion of the site consists of a fenced,
grassed area not currently used. A concrete retaining wall and
chain -link fence are located southeast of the existing buildings.
Abandoned railroad spurs traverse the northeast and northwest corners
of the property. A gravel entrance road is located along the south
property line off of Lemay Avenue. A large paved area is located along
the northwest corner of the site, and an asphalt paved drive is located
along the north property line. Asphalt paved areas are located north of
the existing buildings. The property is bordered on the north by East
Vine Drive,on the south by a fenced area and a large overhead power
line, on the west by Linden Street and on the east by Lemay Avenue.
The area is relatively flat and has minor drainage to the east-southeast.
LABORATORY TESTS AND EVALUATION
Samples obtained from the test borings were subjected to testing in
the laboratory to provide a sound basis for evaluating the physical
properties of the soils encountered. Moisture contents, dry unit
weights, unconfined compressive strengths, water soluble sulfates,
swelling potentials, and the Atterberg limits were determined. A
summary of the test results is included in Appendix B. Consolidation

EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 EDITION
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 9/99)
and Hveem stabilometer characteristics were also determined, and curves
showing this data are included in Appendix B.
SOIL AND GROUND WATER CONDITIONS
The soil profile at the site consists of strata of materials arranged in
different combinations. In order of increasing depths, they are as
follows:
(1) Silty Topsoil and Existing Pavement: A six (6) inch layer of
silty topsoil was encountered at the surface of Borings 2, 10
and 11. The topsoil has been penetrated by root growth and
organic matter and should not be used as a bearing soil or as a
fill and/or backfill material. It is recommended that the topsoil
be stripped and stockpiled for reuse in planted areas. Two (2)
to two and one-half (2-1/2) inches of asphalt underlain by six
(6) to eight (8) inches of base course were encountered in the
three borings drilled in Linden Street, and five (5) to six (6)
inches of asphalt underlain by six (6) to eight (8) inches of
gravel base course were encountered in the three borings
drilled through Lemay Avenue at the east edge of the site.
Additional pavement is encountered throughout the central
portion of the project area. It is recommended that all asphalt
be removed and wasted from within the limits of the proposed
new building construction. In our opinion, the existing asphalt
in both Linden Street and Lemay Avenue is suitable for
overlay.
(2) Fill Material: A one-half (1/2) to four and one-half (4-1/2)
foot layer of fill material was encountered below the surface
and/or pavement in Borings 1, 3 through 9 and 12 through 17.
The fill consists of varying mixtures of sand, gravel, and
cobbles, and the fill within the limits of the property contains
bricks, cinders, clay, and minor amounts of wood. It is not
known whether the fill has been uniformly or properly
compacted; therefore, the fill should not be used as a
-3-
foundation soil. Fill not containing wood, cinders or other
unsuitable material is suitable for reuse as structural fill at the
site.
(3) Sandy Silty Clay: This stratum underlies the topsoil and/or
fill in all but Boring 4 and extends to the sand and gravel
below. The silty clay is plastic, contains varying amounts of
sand, is dry to damp and exhibits generally moderate bearing
characteristics. When wetted, the clay stratum exhibits very
slight swell potential; and upon loading, consolidation occurs.
(4) Sand, Gravel and Cobbles: The gravel stratum was
encountered in all borings at depths of three (3) to nine (9)
feet below the surface and extends beyond the depths explored.
The sand and gravel is well graded, is loose to dense and
exhibits generally moderate bearing characteristics in its moist
to saturated condition. It is estimated that cobbles within the
gravel stratum range in size up to twelve (12) inches in
diameter.
(5.) Ground Water: At the time of the investigation, free ground
water was encountered in all borings at depths of five and
one-half (5-1/2) to nine and one-half (9-1/2) feet below the
surface. Water levels in this area are subject to change due to
seasonal variations and irrigation demands on and/or adjacent to
the property.
GEOLOGY
The proposed site is located within the Colorado Piedmont section
of the Great Plains physiographic province. The Colorado Piedmont,
formed during Late Tertiary and Early Quaternary time (approximately
sixty-five million (65,000,000) years ago), is a broad, erosional trench
which separates the Southern Rocky Mountains from the High Plains.
Structurally, the property lies along the western flank of the Denver
-4-
Basin. During the Late Mesozoic and Early Cenozoic Periods
(approximately seventy million (70,000,000) years ago), intense tectonic
activity occurred, causing the uplifting of the Front Range and the
associated downwarping of the Denver Basin to the east. Relatively flat
uplands and broad valleys characterize the present-day topography of
the Colorado Piedmont in this region. The property is underlain by the
Cretaceous Pierre Shale Formation. The Pierre shale is overlain by
alluvial sands and gravels and clays of Pleistocene and/or Recent Age.
Bedrock was not encountered at the site at depths of fifteen (15)
feet below the surface. However, it is anticipated that bedrock
underlies the area at depths of twenty (20) to thirty (30) feet below the
surface. The regional dip of the bedrock in this area is slight and in
an easterly direction. In addition, seismic activity in the area is
anticipated to be low; therefore, from a structural standpoint, the
property should be relatively stable. Due to the relatively flat nature of
the property, geologic hazards due to mass movement, such as
landslides, muciflows, rockfalls, etc. ; are not anticipated. With proper
site grading around the proposed structures, erosional problems at the
site should be minimal. The property lies within the drainage basin of
the Cache La Poudre River and does not appear to be located within the
100 year flood plain of this stream. However, this should be verified by
a professional engineer and/or hydrogeologist. If it is determined that
the site is located within the 100 year flood plain, proposed buildings
should be elevated above the 100 year flood plain of the stream.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND DISCUSSION
It is our understanding that the some of existing buildings are to
remain and be remodelled and that new structures are to be constructed
at the site. The new buildings will consist of lightly loaded garage and
office structures for the City Streets Department. A large paved
parking area is planned along the west side of the site, and a detention
pond is planned east of the existing buildings.
-5-
Site Grading, Excavation and Utilities
Specifications pertaining to site grading are included below and in
Appendix C of this report. It is recommended that the upper six (6)
inches of topsoil penetrated by root growth and organic matter below
building, filled and paved areas be stripped and stockpiled for reuse in
planted areas or wasted from the site. All existing fill should be
removed from within the limits of the proposed building areas, and the
upper two (2) feet of existing fill should be removed from below
proposed paved areas and stockpiled for reuse. All debris, organic
matter and unsuitable material should be separated from the fill prior to
its reuse. Concrete was encountered at a depth of two and one-half
(2-1/2) feet in Boring 4. It is anticipated that additional building
excavations will be uncovered during construction. It is not known
whether these excavations have been properly backfilled and compacted.
Therefore, it is recommended that all existing building excavations be
thoroughly clean of all fill, debris, foundation concrete, and building
materials. All materials from buildings to be razed should be removed
and wasted from the site. The excavated areas should be inspected by
the geotechnical engineer prior to backfilling. The backfill should
consist of the on -site existing granular fill devoid of debris, on -site
natural sands and gravels or imported granular materials approved by
the geotechnical engineer. All backfill should be placed in uniform six
(6) to eight (8) inch lifts and mechanically compacted at or near optimum
moisture to a minimum of ninety-five percent (95%) of Standard Proctor
Density ASTM D 698-78. The natural subgrade below building areas and
the existing fill subgrade below paved areas should be scarified and
recompacted at or near optimum moisture to at least ninety-five percent
(95%) of Standard Proctor Density ASTM D 698-78. (See Appendix C.)
Where this subgrade compaction cannot be obtained due to poorly
compacted fill below, additional fill should be removed to such a point
until proper compaction can be obtained. Finished subgrade below
building and paved areas should be placed a minimum of three (3) feet
above existing ground water. Additional fill placed at the site should
consist of the existing fill devoid of debris, on -site natural soils or
M
imported granular materials approved by the geotechnical engineer. Fill
should be placed in uniform six (6) to eight (8) inch lifts and
mechanically compacted between optimum moisture and two percent (2%)
wet of optimum moisture to a minimum of ninety-five percent (95%) of
Standard Proctor Density ASTM D 698-78. In computing earthwork
quantities, an estimated shrinkage factor of eighteen (18) to twenty-two
(22) percent may be used for the on -site clays compacted to the
above -recommended density. A shrinkage factor of fifteen (15) to
twenty (20) percent may be used for the on -site granular fill and
natural sands and gravels used as compacted fill.
All excavations should be dug on safe and stable slopes. The
slope of the sides of the excavations should comply with local codes or
OSHA regulations. Where this is not practical, sheeting, shoring
and/or bracing of the excavation will be required. The sheeting,
shoring and bracing of the excavation should be done to prevent sliding
or caving of the excavation walls and to protect construction workers
and adjacent structures. The side slopes of the excavation or
sheeting, shoring or bracing should be maintained under safe conditions
until completion of backfilling. In addition, heavy construction
equipment should be kept a safe distance from the edge of the
excavation.
All piping should be adequately bedded for proper load
distribution. Backfill placed in utility trenches in open and planted
areas should be compacted in uniform lifts at optimum moisture to at
least ninety percent (90%) of Standard Proctor Density ASTM D 698-78
the full depth of the trench. Backfill placed in utility trenches under
buildings and paved areas should be compacted at or near optimum
moisture to at least ninety-five percent (95%) of Standard Proctor
Density ASTM D 698-78. Addition of moisture to and/or drying of the
subsoils may be needed for proper compaction.
Stripping, grubbing, subgrade preparation, and fill and backfill
placement should be accomplished under continuous observation of the
geotechnical engineer. Field density tests should be taken daily in the
compacted subgrade, fill, and backfill under the direction of the
geotechnical engineer.
-7-
Fill in the detention pond should consist of the on -site clay material
placed in accordance with the above recommendations. For ease of
construction and maintenance, the top of any proposed detention basin
berms should have a minimum width of ten (10) feet. All cut and fill
slopes in detention basins should be placed on slopes of 3:1 or flatter.
To minimize erosion, the slope and bottom of the detention basin should
be seeded. Pipes or apertures through the detention basin should be
surrounded by a minimum of two (2) feet of the clay soil compacted to
ninety-eight percent (98%) of Standard Proctor Density ASTM D 698-78.
It is our understanding that the detention basins are to be designed to
allow for seepage out the bottom of the pond. Soil percolation tests run
in the clay soil indicate that the clay soil is relatively pervious, having
percolation rates of 40 to 80 minutes per inch. If the basins are
excavated to the sand and gravel, percolation rates would increase to
between 5 and 10 minutes per inch. It should be noted that the gravel
stratum is encountered at or near the ground water at the site.
Foundations
In view of the anticipated loads transmitted by the proposed
construction and the soil conditions encountered at the site, it is
recommended that the structures be supported by conventional -type
spread footings. All footings should be founded on the original,
undisturbed soil or on a structural fill extended to the undisturbed soil.
All exterior footings should be placed a minimum of thirty (30) inches
below :finished grade for frost protection. In no case should footings be
founded on the existing fill encountered at the site. The structural fill
should be constructed in accordance with the recommendations discussed
in the "Site Grading, Excavation and Utilities" section of this report.
The structural integrity of the fill as well as the identification and
undisturbed nature of the soil should be verified by the geotechnical
engineer prior to placement of any foundation concrete. Based on
preliminary test results, footings founded at the above levels may be
designed for a maximum allowable bearing capacity of two thousand
(2000) pounds per square foot (dead load plus maximum live load). The
predicted settlement under the above maximum loading, as determined by
-8-
laboratory consolidation tests, should be less than three -fourths (3/4)
inch, generally considered to be within acceptable tolerances.
Slabs on Grade
Subgrade below slabs on grade should be prepared in accordance
with the recommendations discussed in the "Site Grading, Excavation
and Utilities" section of this report. Slabs on grade supporting heavy
floor loads should be underlain by at least six (6) inches of crushed
gravel base course, compacted at optimum moisture to at least
ninety-five percent (95%) of Standard Proctor Density ASTM D 698-78.
(See Appendix C.) Floor areas transmitting light floor loads should be
underlain by a minimum of four (4) inches of clean gravel or crushed
rock devoid of fines. The gravel base course and/or gravel should help
to distribute floor loads and should act as a capillary break. Slabs on
grade should be designed for the imposed loading, and it is suggested
that they be designed structurally independent of bearing members. To
minimize and control shrinkage cracks which may develop in slabs on
grade, we suggest that control joints be placed every fifteen (15) to
twenty (20) feet and that the total area contained within these joints be
no greater than four hundred (400) square feet.
In addition, if building construction is done during winter months,
it is recommended that the slab on grade not be poured until the
building has been enclosed and heat is available within the building
area so that slab -on -grade concrete is not placed on frozen ground.
This will also aid in proper curing of the slab concrete.
Parking and Driveway Areas
The required total thickness for the pavement structure is dependent
primarily upon the foundation soil or subgrade and upon traffic
conditions. Based on the soil conditions encountered at the site and the
type and volume of traffic and using a group index of 7 as the criterion
for pavement design, the following minimum pavement thicknesses should
be provided for the pavement structure:
lm
Passenger Car Parkin
Asphalt Concrete 2}"
Crushed Aggregate Base Course 6"
Total Pavement Thickness 81"
Asphalt Concrete 2"
Plant Mix Bituminous Base Course 2111
Total Pavement Thickness 4}"
Driveways and Truck Loading and Truck Parking Areas
Asphalt Concrete 3"
Crushed Aggregate Base Course 8"
Total Pavement Thickness 11"
Asphalt Concrete 2"
Plant Mix Bituminous Base Course 4"
Total Pavement Thickness 6"
Subgrade below proposed paved areas should be prepared in accordance
with the recommendations discussed in the "Site Grading, Excavation and
Utilities" section. The surface of the subgrade should be hard,
uniform, smooth, and true to grade. To prevent the growth of weeds,
it is suggested that all subgrade under parking areas be treated with a
soil sterilant.
The base course overlying the subgrade should consist of a hard,
durable, crushed rock or stone and filler and should have a minimum
"R" value of 80. The composite base course material should be free from
organic matter and lumps or balls of clay and should meet the City of
Fort Collins Class 5 or 6 Aggregate Base Course. The base course
should be placed on the subgrade at or near optimum moisture and
compacted to at least ninety-five percent (95%) of Standard Proctor
Density ASTM D 698-78. (See Appendix C.) It is important that the
base course be shaped to grade so that proper drainage of the parking
area is obtained. All asphalt concrete shall meet City of Fort Collins
specifications and shall be placed in accordance with these specifications.
-10-
A reasonable pavement alternate would be nonreinforced concrete
pavement. Using a modulus of subgrade reaction of one hundred
twenty-five (125) pounds per square inch per inch, a design life of
twenty (20) years, and concrete with a modulus of rupture of six
hundred fifty (650) pounds per square inch, the following minimum
pavement thicknesses are recommended:
Passenger Car Parking
Nonreinforced Concrete - 5"
Driveways and Truck Loading and Parking Areas
Nonreinforced Concrete - 6"
Subgrade below the proposed pavement should be prepared in accordance
with the recommendations discussed in the "Site Grading, Excavation and
Utilities" section of this report.
Concrete used in the pavement should meet ASTM specifications, and
aggregate should conform to ASTM C-33 specifications. Concrete should
be designed with a minimum modulus of rupture of six hundred fifty
(650) pounds per square inch in twenty-eight (28) days. It is
suggested that a minimum cement content of six (6) sacks be used for
this mix. It is further recommended that laboratory mix designs be done
to determine the proper proportions of aggregate, cement, and water to
meet this requirement. It is essential that the concrete mix have a low
water -cement ratio, an adequate cement factor, and sufficient quantities
of entrained air. It is recommended that the subgrade be in a moist
condition at the time the concrete is placed. The pavement surface
should be free of depressions in which water may stand.
Catch basins and manhole castings should be separated from the
pavement with expansion joint material. The jointing plan should be
prepared by the contractor and/or architect and approved by the
geotechnical engineer prior to pavement. Longitudinal and transverse
joint spacing should be at regular ten (10) to thirteen (13) foot
intervals. Longitudinal and transverse contraction joints should have a
depth approximately equivalent to one-fourth (1/4) the pavement
thickness. The joints should be cut within twenty-four (24) hours of
-11-
pouring. Expansion joints should be full -depth and should only be used
to isolate fixed objects abutting or within the pavement area. Joint
openings wider than one-fourth (1/4) inch should be cleaned and sealed
before opening to traffic. A uniform, gritty final surface texture
should be provided. Curing should be obtained with uniform coverage
with white membrane curing compound or by seven-day coverage with
white polyethylene or waterproof paper. The completed pavement should
be closed to automobile traffic for three (3) days and to truck traffic for
seven (7) days. If paving is done during cold weather, cold weather
procedures should be used. The concrete should be protected from
freezing temperatures until it is at least ten (10) days old.
Lemay Avenue and Linden Street
At the time of the writing of this report, the traffic information was
not available regarding the number of vehicles using Lemay Avenue and
Linden Street due to the construction of the new street facility. The
traffic data is an integral part of the pavement design. When this data
becomes available, an addendum to our report will be prepared. The
existing pavement on Lemay Avenue consists of five (5) to six (6) inches
of asphalt underlain by six (6) to eight (8) inches of base course. The
subgrade material below the pavement consists of fill consisting of sandy
silty clay with minor amounts of gravel underlain by sandy silty clay.
The combination of the fill and the natural sandy silty clay subgrade has
an "R" value of 6.
The existing pavement on Linden Street consists of two (2) to two
and one-half (2-1/2) inches of asphalt underlain by six (6) to eight (8)
inches of base .course. The base course is underlain by fill material
which is underlain by natural sandy silty clay. The "R" value of the
combination fill and sandy silty clay subgrade below the pavement is
17.9. After the traffic data becomes available, Empire Laboratories, Inc.
will evaluate the existing pavement and make recommendations regarding
overlay of the pavement if required.

EICDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 EDITION)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 9/99)
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
(1) Laboratory test results indicate that water soluble sulfates in
the soil are negligible, and a Type 1-11 cement may be used in
concrete exposed to subsoils. Slabs on grade subjected to
de-icing chemicals should be composed of a more durable
concrete with low water -cement ratios and higher air contents.
(2) Finished grade should be sloped away from the structures on
all sides to give positive drainage. Five percent (5%) for the
first ten (10) feet away from the structure is the suggested
slope.
(3) Gutters and downspouts should be designed to carry roof
runoff water well beyond the backfill area.
(4) Underground sprinkling systems should be designed such that
piping is placed a minimum of five (5) feet outside the backfill
of the structures. Heads should be designed so that irrigation
water is not sprayed onto the foundation walls. These
recommendations should be taken into account in the landscape
planning.
(5) Footing sizes should be proportioned to equalize the unit loads
applied to the soil and thus minimize differential settlements.
(6) It is recommended that compaction requirements in the project
specifications be verified in the field with density tests
performed under the direction of the geotechnical engineer.
(7) It is recommended that a registered professional engineer
design the substructures and that he take into account the
findings and recommendations of this report.
-13-
GENERAL COMMENTS
It should be noted that this was a preliminary investigation and
that the bearing capacities recommended in this report are based on
preliminary tests. Due to variations in soil conditions and swelling
pressures encountered at the site, it is recommended that additional
test borings be made prior to construction. Samples obtained from the
borings should be tested in the laboratory to provide a basis for
evaluating subsurface conditions.

W/ CrrY OF FORT COLLINS MODIRCATIONS (REV 9/99)
APPENDIX C
APPENDIX C.
Suggested Minimum Specifications for Placement of Compacted
Earth Fill and/or Backfills
GENERAL
The geotechnical engineer shall be the owner's, architect's,
engineer's or contractor's representative to observe placement of
compacted fill and/or backfill on the project. The geotechnical engineer
or his representative shall approve all earth materials prior to their use,
the method of placement and the degree of compaction.
MATERIALS
Soils used for all compacted fill and backfill shall be approved by
the geotechnical engineer or his representative prior to their use. Fill
material shall be free from organic matter, frozen material and other
unsuitable substance and shall not contain rocks or lumps having a
diameter greater than six (6) inches.
SUBGRADE PREPARATION
All topsoil, vegetation, trees, brush, timber, debris, rubbish and all
other unsuitable material shall be removed to a depth satisfactory to the
geotechnical engineer or his representative. The material shall be
disposed of by suitable means prior to beginning preparation of the
subgrade. The subgrade shall be scarified a minimum depth of six (6)
inches, moisture conditioned as necessary and compacted in a suitable
manner prior to placement of fill material. Fill shall not be placed until
approval by the geotechnical engineer or his representative; and in no
case, shall fill material be placed on frozen or unstable ground.
Subgrade which is not stable may require the use of imported granular
material, geotextiles or other methods for stabilization as approved by the
geotechnical engineer.
FILL PLACEMENT
Fill material shall not be placed during unfavorable weather
conditions. Material proposed for use as fill shall. be approved by the
geotechnical engineer or his representative prior to use. Proposed import
material shall be approved by the geotechnical engineer or his
representative prior to hauling to the project site. Fill material shall be
C-2
uniformly mixed such as to preclude the formation of lenses of material --
differing from the surrounding material. All clods shall be broken into
small pieces. The contractor shall construct the fill in approximately —
horizontal lifts extending the entire length of the fill. The thickness of
the layers before compaction shall not be greater than eight (8) inches.
Fill being placed on slopes or hillsides shall be benched into the existing
slope. A minimum two (2) foot horizontal bench shall be cut into the
existing excavated slope for each four (4) feet vertical of fill, or each lift "
should be benched slightly into the existing grade.
MOISTURE CONTROL
Prior to and during compaction operations, the fill material being
placed shall be maintained within the range of optimum moisture specified.
A general recommendation is to maintain the fill material within two
percent (2%) plus or minus of optimum moisture so that proper compaction —
to the specified density may be obtained with a minimal effort. In
building pad and paved areas, material exhibiting swelling potential shall —
be maintained between optimum moisture and two percent (2%) wet of
optimum moisture content. The moisture content of the fill material shall
be maintained uniform throughout the fill. The contractor may be —
required to add necessary moisture to the fill material and to uniformly ,_
mix the water with the fill material if, in the. opinion of the geotechnical
engineer, it is not possible to obtain uniform moisture content by adding
water on the fill surface. If, in the opinion of the geotechnical engineer,
the material proposed for use in the compactdd fill is too wet to permit —
adequate compaction, it shall be dried in an acceptable manner prior to _
placement and compaction. Uniform mixing may require discing, blading
or other 'methods approved by the geotechnical engineer or his
representative.
Adjustments of
determinations of
progresses.
COMPACTION
moisture content shall be made on the basis of
moisture content by field tests as construction
The contractor shall furnish and operate the necessary types and
kinds of equipment to perform the operations required to obtain the —
specified compaction. This equipment may include approved tamping
rollers, rubber tired rollers, smooth wheeled rollers and vibratory
rollers. If a sheepsfoot roller is used, it shall be provided with cleaner —
bars so attached as to prevent the accumulation of material between the
tamper feet. Fill areas which are not accessible to full-sized construction --
equipment shall be placed in maximum four (4) inch lifts and compacted
with power tampers to the specified density.
C-3
Compaction should meet the minimum percentages of maximum density
as set forth in the project specifications or the recommendations of the
report. The contract specifications supercede the recommendations given
in this report.
MOISTURE DENSITY RELATIONSHIP DETERMINATION
Samples of representative fill materials to be placed shall be
furnished by the contractor to the geotechnical engineer for determination
of maximum density and optimum moisture or relative density. Sufficient
laboratory moisture density or relative density curves will be made to
determine the optimum moisture content and maximum density for the
various soils placed as fill. Tests for this determination will be made
using the appropriate method conforming to the requirements of ASTM D
698 (Standard Proctor), ASTM D 1557 (Modified Proctor) or ASTM D 4253,
D 4254 (Relative Density). The materials used for fill shall be classified
in accordance with ASTM D 2487 in order to permit correlation between
the moisture density relationship data and the material being placed and
compacted. Copies of the results of these tests will be furnished to the
client and others as directed by the client. These test results shall be
the basis of control for all compaction effort.
FIELD DENSITY AND MOISTURE TESTS
The in -place density and moisture content of compacted fill will be
determined by the geotechnical engineer or his representative in
accordance with ASTM D 1556 (sand cone method) or ASTM D 2922, D
3017 (nuclear methods). Material not meeting the required compaction
and/or moisture specifications shall be recompacted and/or, moisture
conditioned until the required percent compaction and/or moisture content
is obtained. Sufficient compaction tests shall be made and submitted to
support the geotechnical engineer's or his representative's
recommendations. The results of density tests will also be furnished to
the client and others as directed.

rendered by ENGINEER before that date. No demand for
arbitration of any such claim, dispute or other matter will
be made later than thirty days after the date on which
ENGINEER has rendered a written decision in respect
thereof in accordance with paragraph 9.11; and the failure
to demand arbitration within said thirty days' period will
result in ENGINEER's decision being final and binding
upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR. If ENGINEER
renders a decision after arbitration proceedings have been
initiated, such decision may be entered as evidence but will
not supersede the arbitration proceedings, except where the
decision is acceptable to the parties concerned. No demand
for arbitration of any written decision of ENGINEER
rendered in accordance with paragraph 9.10 will be made
later than ten days after the party malting such demand has
delivered written notice of intention to appeal as provided

those who are already parties to the arbitration, and
16A.2. such other person or entity is substantially
involved in a question of law or fact which is common
to those who are already parties to the arbitration and
which will arise in such proceedings, and
16.4.3. the written consent of the other person or
entity sought to be included and of OWNER and
CONTRACTOR has been obtained for such inclusion,
which consent shall make specific reference to this
paragraph; but no such consent shall constitute consent
to arbitration of any dispute not specifically described
in such consent or to arbitration with any party not
specifically identified in such consent.
16.5. Notwithstanding paragraph 16.4, if a claim,
dispute or other matter in question between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR involves the Work of a Subcontractor,
either OWNER or CONTRACTOR may join such
Subcontractor as a party to the arbitration between OWNER
