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. Adequate and complete
information will prevent delays in the plan review process. Reviewing a plan and the discovery that
required information has not been provided by the applicant may result in the delay of the permit
issuance and in proceeding with building construction. The owner or contractor may be required to
provide this information before the plan review may proceed. This causes delays because 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. If you do not, it may be
helpful to obtain a book titled "Dwelling Construction under the Uniform Building Code".
This book is available to you through this department at our cost. Also, please consider using
a design professional for assistance in your design and a construction professional for
construction of your project.
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.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of a subsoil study for a proposed residence to be located
on Lot 8, Sunlight View II, Meadowood Road, Garfield County, Colorado. The project
site is shown on Figure 1. The purpose of the study was to develop recommendations
for the foundation design. The study was conducted in accordance with our agreement
for geotechnical engineering services to Paul R. Whistler dated January 16, 2004.
Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. previously conducted a preliminary geotechnical
study for development of the subdivision and presented our findings in a report dated
January 31, 2000, Job No. 100 104.
A field exploration program consisting of exploratory borings was conducted to obtain
information on the subsurface conditions. Samples of the subsoils obtained during the
field exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine their classification,
compressibility or swell and other engineering characteristics. The results of the field
exploration and laboratory testing were analyzed to develop recommendations for
foundation types, depths and allowable pressures for the proposed building foundation.
This report summarizes the data obtained during this study and presents our
conclusions, design recommendations and other geotechnical engineering considerations
based on the proposed construction and the subsoil conditions encountered.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The proposed residence will be a two story wood frame structure with an attached
garage. Ground floor will be structural over a crawlspace for the residence and slab -
on -grade in the garage. Grading for the structure is assumed to be relatively minor with
cut depths between about 3 to 5 feet. We assume relatively light foundation loadings,
typical of the proposed type of construction.
Job No 104 115
Gettech
1 t
-2-
If building loadings, location or grading plans change significantly from those described
above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations contained in this
report.
SITE CONDITIONS
The site was vacant and covered with about 'h to 1 foot of snow at the time of our field
exploration. The ground surface is relatively flat with a gentle slope down to the
northeast. There could be some minor fill on the lot from overlot grading as par( of the
subdivision development. Vegetation consists of grass and weeds.
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration for the project was conducted on January 20, 2004. Two
exploratory borings were drilled at the locations shown on Figure 1 to evaluate the
subsurface conditions. The borings were advanced with 4 inch diameter continuous
flight augers powered by a truck -mounted CME -45B drill rig. The borings were logged
by a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc.
Samples of the subsoils were taken with 1 inch and 2 inch I.D. spoon samplers. The
samplers were driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows from a 140 pound
hammer falling 30 inches. This test is similar to the standard penetration test described
by ASTM Method D-1586. The penetration resistance values are an indication of the
relative density or consistency of the subsoils. Depths at which the samples were taken
and the penetration resistance values are shown on the Logs of Exploratory Borings,
Figure 2. The samples were returned to our laboratory for review by the project
engineer and testing.

SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Graphic logs of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site are shown on Figure 2.
The subsoils generally consist of about 1 foot of topsoil overlying typically very stiff,
sandy silty clay. Relatively dense, basalt gravel, cobbles and boulders in a sandy clay
matrix was encountered beneath the clays at depths of 11 and 12 feet. The lower 5 feet
of clay soils in Boring 1 were sandier. Drilling in the basalt rock subsoils with auger
equipment was difficult due to the cobbles and boulders and drilling refusal was
encountered in the deposit.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the borings included natural
moisture content, density and finer than sand size gradation analyses. Results of swell -
consolidation testing performed on relatively undisturbed drive samples of the clay
soils, presented on Figures 4 and 5, indicate low compressibility under existing
moisture conditions and light loading and a low to moderate expansion potential when
wetted under a constant light surcharge with swelling pressures between about 4,000 psf
and 7,000 psf. The laboratory testing is summarized in Table 1.
No free water was encountered in the borings at the time of drilling or when checked 2
days later. The subsoils were slightly moist to moist.
FOUNDATION BEARING CONDITIONS
The clay subsoils encountered at the site possess a low to moderate expansion potential
when wetted. The expansion potential can be partly mitigated by load concentration to
reduce or prevent swelling in the event of wetting or excavation of the clay soils to
below the foundation bearing level. Surface runoff, landscape irrigation, and utility
leakage are possible sources of water which could cause wetting. Subexcavation and
replacement with nonexpansive granular fill, below foundations and flour slabs, would
help limit the expansion potential.

DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
FOUNDATIONS
Considering the subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings and the
nature of the proposed construction, spread footings placed on the upper natural clay
soils can be used for building support with a risk of differential movement if the bearing
soils become wetted.
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a spread
footing foundation system.
1) Footings placed on the upper natural clay soils can be designed for an
allowable bearing pressure of 2,500 psf. The footings should also be
designed for a minimum dead load pressure of 800 psf. In order to
satisfy the minimum dead load pressure under lightly loaded areas, it
may be necessary to concentrate loads by using a grade beam and pad
system. Wall -on -grade construction is not recommended at this site to
achieve the minimum dead load.
2) As an alternate, to help reduce the expansion potential and eliminate the
minimum dead load pressure, subexcavation to at least 3 feet and
replacement with compacted road base could be used below footings.
The road base should be compacted to at least 98% of standard Proctor
density at a moisture content near optimum and extend laterally beyond
the edges of the footings at least 3 feet.
3) Based on experience, we expect inital settlement of footings designed and
constructed as discussed in this section will be less than 1 inch. There
could be some additional differential movements of about 1 to 11/2 inches
if the bearing soils were to become wet.
4) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous
footings and 24 inches for isolated pads.
Job No 104 115
GecPtech
-5-
5) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span
local anomalies and limit the risk of differential movement. One method
of analysis is to design the foundation wall to span an unsupported length
of at least 12 feet. Foundation walls acting as retaining structures (if
any) should also be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure
corresponding to an equivalent fluid unit weight of 60 pcf for the on-site
soils as backfill.
6) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided
with adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost
protection. Placement of foundations at least 36 inches below the
exterior grade is typically used in this area.
7) Prior to the footing construction, the topsoil and loose or disturbed soils
should be removed and the footing bearing level extended down to the
firm natural soils.
8) A representative of the geotechnical engineer should observe all footing
excavations prior to concrete placement to evaluate bearing conditions.
FLOOR SLABS
Floor slabs present a problem where expansive materials are present near floor slab
elevation because sufficient dead load cannot be imposed on them to resist the uplift
pressure generated when the materials are wetted and expand. We recommend that
structural floors with crawlspace below be used for all floors in the building that will be
sensitive to upward movement.
Slab -on -grade construction may be used in the garage area provided the risk of distress
is understood by the owner. We recommend placing at least 3 feet of nonexpansive
structural fill, such as '/e -inch road base, below floor slabs in order to reduce potential
slab movement due to expansive soils.
Job No 104 115
Gtech
• -6-
To reduce the effects of some differential movement, nonstructural floor slabs should be
separated from all bearing walls, columns and partition walls with expansion joints
which allow unrestrained vertical movement. Interior non-bearing partitions resting on
floor slabs should be provided with a slip joint at the bottom of the wall so that, if the
slab moves, the movement cannot be transmitted to the upper structure. This detail is
also important for wallboards, stairways and door frames. Slip joints which allow at
least 2 inches of vertical movement are recommended. Floor slab control joints should
be used to reduce damage due to shrinkage cracking. Joint spacing and slab
reinforcement should be established by the designer based on experience and the
intended slab use.
Required fill beneath slabs should consist of a suitable imported granular material,
excluding topsoil and oversized rocks. The suitability of structural fill materials should
be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer prior to placement. The fill should be spread
in thin horizontal lifts, adjusted to at or above optimum moisture content, and
compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density. All vegetation,
topsoil and loose or disturbed soil should be removed prior to fill placement.
The above recommendations will not prevent slab heave if the expansive soils
underlying slabs -on -grade become wet. However, the recommendations will reduce the
effects if slab heave occurs. All plumbing lines should be pressure tested before
backfilling to help reduce the potential for wetting.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
A perimeter foundation drain adjacent the crawlspace aea should not be needed with
positive surface drainage and proper backfill placement and compaction to limit
infiltration of runoff. The following drainage precautions should be observed during
construction and maintained at all times after the residence has been completed:
Job No 104 115
Geetech
-7-
1) Excessive wetting or drying of rhe foundation excavations and underslab
areas should be avoided during construction. Drying could increase the
expansion potential of the clay soils.
2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and
compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in
pavement areas and to at least 90% of the maximum standard Proctor
density in landscape areas.
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 6 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved
areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the first 10 feet in paved areas.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of
all backfill.
5) Irrigation sprinkler heads and landscaping which requires regular heavy
irrigation, such as sod, should be located at least 5 feet from foundation
walls.
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 borings drilled at the
locations indicated on Figure 1, the proposed type of construction and our experience in
the area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the subsurface
conditions identified at the exploratory borings and variations in the subsurface
conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If conditions
encountered during construction appear different from those described in this report, we
should be notified so that 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
engineer.
