MOVED BUILDINGS
In order to understand the scope of the work intended under a permit application and expedite the
issuance of a permit it is important that complete information be provided. When reviewing a plan
and it's discovered that required information has not been provided by the applicant, this will result
in the delay of the permit issuance and in proceeding with building construction. The owner or
contractor shall be required to provide this information before the plan review can proceed. Other
plans that are in line for review may be given attention before the new information may be reviewed
after it has been provided to the Building Department.
Please review this document to determine if you have enough information to design your
project and provide adequate information to facilitate a plan review. Also, please consider
using a design professional for assistance in your design and a construction professional for
construction of your project. Any project with more than ten (10) occupants requires the plans
to be sealed by a Colorado Registered Design Professional.
To provide for a more understandable plan in order to determine compliance with the building,
plumbing and mechanical codes, applicants are requested to review the following checklist prior to
and during design. Applicants are required to indicate appropriately and to submit the
completed checklist at time of application for a permit.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Lot 29,
Springridge Reserve, Hidden Valley Drive, Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Ms. English:
As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. performed a subsoil study for design
of foundations at the subject site. The study was conducted in accordance with our
agreement for geotechnical engineering services to you dated August 17, 2006. The data
obtained and our recommendations based on the proposed construction and subsurface
conditions encountered are presented in this report.
Proposed Construction: The proposed residence will be a one and a half story,
combination wood frame/post and beam structure over a walkout basement level and be
located roughly in the area of the exploratory pits shown on Figure I. Basement floor
will be slab-on-grade. Cut depths are expected to range between about 3 to 12 feet.
Foundation loadings are assumed to be relatively-light and typical of the proposed type of
construction.
If building conditions or foundation loadings are significantly different from those
described above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in
this report.
Site Conditions: The site was vacant at the time of our field exploration. An abandoned
irrigation ditch is located just east of the proposed building site. The ground surface is
relatively flat and strongly sloping down to the east. There is about 4 feet of elevation
difference across the proposed building site. Vegetation consists of grass and weeds with
scattered oak brush.
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by
observing two exploratory pits at the approximate locations shown on Figure I. The pits
were excavated prior to our arrival at the site on August 18, 2006. The logs of the pits are
presented on Figure 2. The subsoils encountered, below about Y:. foot oftopsoi1, consist
of sandy clay and silt down to the maximum pit depth of7 feet. Results of swell-
consolidation testing performed on relatively undisturbed samples, presented on Figures 3
and 4, typically indicate low compressibility under existing moisture conditions and light
Parker 303-841-7119 • Colorado Springs 719-633-5562 • Silverthorne 970-468-1989
-2-
loading. The deeper samples showed a low collapse potential (settlement under a
constant load) after wetting and moderate to high compressibility with increased loading
after wetting. The sample from Pit I at 2 feet showed a minor expansion potential when
wetted. No free water was observed in the pits when observed on August 18, 2006 and
the soils were slightly moist to moist.
Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in the
exploratory pits and the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend spread
footings placed on the undisturbed natural soil designed for an allowable soil bearing
pressure of 1,500 psffor support of the proposed residence. The soils possess a variable
settlement/heave potential and there could be some post-construction foundation
movement, especially if the bearing soils are wetted. The sub grade should be further
evaluated at the time of construction. Footings should be a minimum width of 18 inches
for continuous walls and 2 feet for columns. Topsoil, loose and disturbed soils and
expansive clay encountered at the foundation bearing level within the excavation should
be removed to expose firm natural soils and the footing bearing level should be moistened
and compacted prior to constructing footings. Exterior footings should be provided with
adequate cover above their bearing elevations for frost protection. Placement of footings
at least 36 inches below the exterior grade is typically used in this area. Continuous
foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span local anomalies such as by
assuming an unsupported length of at least 12 feet.
Foundation and Retaining Walls: Foundation walls and retaining structures which are
laterally supported and can be expected to undergo only a slight amount of deflection
should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent
fluid unit weight of at least 55 pcf for backfill consisting of the on-site soils. Cantilevered
retaining structures which are separate from the residence and can be expected to deflect
sufficiently to mobilize the full active earth pressure condition should be designed for a
lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of at least
45 pcf for backfill consisting of the on-site soils.
All foundation and retaining structures should be designed for appropriate hydrostatic and
surcharge pressures such as adjacent footings, traffic, construction materials and
equipment. The pressures recommended above assume drained conditions behind the .
walls and a horizontal backfill surface. The buildup of water behind a wall or an upward
sloping backfill surface will increase the lateral pressure imposed on a foundation wall or
retaining structure. An underdrain should be provided to prevent hydrostatic pressure
buildup behind walls.
Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90% of the maximum
standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Backfill in pavement and
walkway areas should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor
Job No. I 06 0744
-3-
density. Care should be taken not to overcompact the backfill or use large equipment
near the wall, since this could cause excessive lateral pressure on the wall. Some
settlement of deep foundation wall backfill should be expected, even if the material is
placed correctly, and could result in distress to facilities constructed on the backfill.
The lateral resistance of foundation or retaining wall footings will be a combination of the
sliding resistance of the footing on the foundation materials and passive earth pressure
against the side of the footing. Resistance to sliding at the bottoms of the footings can be
calculated based on a coefficient of friction of0.35. Passive pressure of compacted
backfill against the sides of the footings can be calculated using an equivalent fluid unit
weight of 300 pcf. The coefficient of friction and passive pressure values recommended
above assume ultimate soil strength. Suitable factors of safety should be included in the
design to limit the strain which will occur at the ultimate strength, particularly in the case
of passive resistance. Fill placed against the sides of the footings to resist lateral loads
should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density at a
moisture content near optimum.
Floor Slabs: The natural on-site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly
loaded slab-on-grade construction. The soils possess a variable settlement/heave
potential and the sub grade should be further evaluated at the time of construction. To
reduce the effects of some differential movement, non-structural floor slabs should be
separated from all bearing walls and columns with expansion joints which allow
unrestrained vertical movement. Floor slab control joints should be used to reduce
damage due to shrinkage cracking. The requirements for joint spacing and slab
reinforcement should be established by the designer based on experience and the intended
slab use. A minimum 4 inch layer of free-draining gravel should be placed beneath
basement level slabs to facilitate drainage. This material should consist of minus 2 inch
aggregate with less than 50% passing the No. 4 sieve and less than 2% passing the No.
200 sieve.
All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95% of
maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Required fill can
consist of the on-site soils or a suitable imported granular soil devoid of vegetation,
topsoil and oversized rock.
Underdrain System: Although free water was not encountered during our exploration, it
has been our experience in the area that local perched groundwater can develop during
times of heavy precipitation or seasonal runoff. Frozen ground during spring runoff can
create a perched condition. We recommend below-grade construction, such as retaining
walls, crawlspace and basement areas, be protected from wetting and hydrostatic pressure
buildup by an underdrain system.
Job No. I 06 0744
-4-
The drains should consist of drainpipe placed in the bottom of the wall backfill
surrounded above the invert level with free-draining granular material. The drain should
be placed at each level of excavation and at least I foot below lowest adjacent finish
grade and sloped at a minimum I% to a suitable gravity outlet. Free-draining granular
material used in the rmderdrain system should contain less than 2% passing the No. 200
sieve, less than 50% passing the No.4 sieve and have a maximum size of2 inches. The
drain gravel backfill should be at least I Y, feet deep. An impervious liner, such as 20 mil
PVC plastic, should be placed beneath the drain gravel in a trough shape and attach to the
foundation wall with mastic to prevent wetting ofthe bearing soils below exterior
footings.
Surface Drainage: The following drainage precautions should be observed during
construction and maintained at all times after the residence has been completed:
I) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be
avoided during construction.
2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and
compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density in
pavement and slab areas and to at least 90% of the maximum standard
Proctor density in landscape areas. Free-draining wall backfill should be
capped with about 2 feet of the on-site soils to reduce surface water
infiltration.
3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building should be
sloped to drain away from the foundation in all directions. We
recommend a minimum slope of 12 inches in the first I 0 feet in unpaved
areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the first I 0 feet in pavement and
walkway areas.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all
backfill.
5) Landscaping which requires regular heavy irrigation, such as sod, should
be located at least I 0 feet from the building.
Limitations: This study has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted
geotechnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no
warranty either express or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted in
this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory pits excavated at the
locations indicated on Figure I and to the depths shown on Figure 2, the proposed type of
construction, and our experience in the area. Our services do not include detennining the
presence, prevention or possibility of mold or other biological contaminants (MOB C)
developing in the future. If the client is concerned about MOBC, then a professional in
this special field of practice should be consulted. Our findings include interpolation and
extrapolation of the subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory pits and variations
in the subsurface conditions may not become evident rmtil excavation is performed. If

conditions encountered during construction appear different from those described in this
report, we should be notified at once so re-evaluation of the recommendations may be
made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes. We
are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. As the
project evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field services during
construction to review and monitor the implementation of our recommendations, and to
verify that the recommendations have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design
changes may require additional analysis or modifications to the recommendations
presented herein. We recommend on-site observation of excavations and foundation
bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a representative of the geotechnical
engmeer.
If you have any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know.
