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.

If you have answered "No" on any of the questions, you may be required to provide this information
at the request of the Building Official prior to beginning the plan review process. Delays in issuing
the permit are to be expected. Work may not proceed without the issuance of a permit. If it is
determined by the Building Official that additional information is necessary to review the application
and plans to determine minimum compliance with the adopted codes, the application may be placed
behind more recent applications for building permits in the review process and not reviewed until

SCOPE
This report presents the results of our soils and foundation investigation for
the proposed shop/garage building at 0170 1/2 State Highway 325 in Garfield County,
Colorado. We conducted this investigation to evaluate subsurface conditions at the
site and provide geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. Our
report was prepared from data developed during excavation of exploratory pits at
the site, engineering analysis, and our experience with similar conditions. This
report includes a description of the subsurface conditions we observed in the
exploratory pits, and presents recommendations for design criteria for the
recommended foundation system, and geotechnical and construction criteria for
details influenced by the subsoils. Recommendations contained in this report were
developed based on our understanding of the planned construction. If plans differ
significantly from the descriptions contained in the report, we should be informed
so that we can check that our recommendations and design criteria are appropriate.
A summary of our conclusions is presented below.
SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS
1. Subsoils exposed in our exploratory pits consisted of native, silty
gravel with cobbles and boulders to the total explored depth of 6 feet
below existing ground surface. Dense boulders and caving pit sides
made deeper excavation of the exploratory pits not practical. Free
ground water was not observed in the exploratory pits at the time of
excavation. The pits were backfilled immediately after the field
investigation was completed.
2. We recommend constructing the shop/garage building on footing
foundations supported by the undisturbed, gravel soil. Design and
construction criteria for footings are presented in the report.
3. We judge potential differential movement of slabs -on -grade supported
by the undisturbed, gravel soil will be low. Additional discussion is in

4. Surface drainage should be designed to provide for rapid removal of
surface water away from the building.
SITE CONDITIONS
The Johnson property is an approximately 38 acre parcel located east of State
Highway 325 in Garfield County, Colorado. Most of the property is gently sloping,
irrigated hayfield. Rifle Creek trends south across the central part of the property.
An existing residence is adjacent to the east property boundary. The shop/garage
building is proposed north of the residence (see Figure 1). An approximately 15 -foot
deep cut was made in the natural slope to create a level building pad for the planned
structure. Reinforced concrete units were placed to retain the excavation face prior
to our site visit. Evaluation of slope stability was not within the scope of this
investigation. No vegetation was present in the area of the proposed building due to
the recent grading operations. A gravel driveway provides access to the proposed
building location. Areas adjacent to the building site are steeply sloping down to the
southwest. The Rifle Creek Canyon Ditch is on the slope above the site.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The planned shop/garage building will be a one-story, pre-engineered, steel
building with a footprint of about 40 feet by 60 feet. No below -grade areas are
planned. A slab -on -grade floor may be constructed in the building. Foundation
loads are expected to vary between 1,000 and 3,000 pounds per lineal foot of
foundation wall with maximum interior column loads of 30 kips. If construction will
differ significantly from the descriptions above, we should be informed so that we
can adjust our recommendations and design criteria, if necessary.

SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Subsurface conditions below the planned shop/garage building were
investigated by observing the excavation of two exploratory pits (TP -1 and TP -2) at
the approximate locations shown on Figure 1. Exploratory excavation operations
were directed by our engineering geologist who logged subsurface conditions
exposed in the pits and obtained samples of the excavated soils. Graphic logs of the
soils encountered in our exploratory pits are shown on Figure 2.
Subsoils exposed in our exploratory pits consisted of native, silty gravel with
cobbles and boulders to the maximum explored depth of 6 feet. Dense boulders and
caving pit sides made deeper excavation of the exploratory pits not practical.
Observation during excavation operations indicated the gravel was dense to very
dense. Free ground water was not observed in the exploratory pits at the time of
excavation. The pits were backfilled immediately after our field investigation was
completed.
Two samples of the gravel soil selected for gradation testing contained 63 and
73 percent gravel, 30 and 23 percent sand, and 7 and 6 percent silt and clay size
particles. Results of gradation testing are shown on Figure 3.
SITE EARTHWORK
Fill may be placed in some areas adjacent to the buildings. Areas which will
receive fill should be stripped of existing concrete flatwork, vegetation, organic soils
and debris. The on-site soils free of organic matter, debris and rocks larger than 6
inches in diameter can be used as fill. Fill should be placed in loose lifts of 10 inches
thick or less, moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content,
and compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry
density.

A 4 -inch thick layer of densely compacted, CDOT Class 6 aggregate base
course or similar soil can be used as a leveling course below footings, if necessary.
Structural fill placed as a leveling course below footings should be compacted to at
least 98 percent of ASTM D 698 maximum dry density.
We anticipate excavations for building foundations and utilities can be
accomplished using conventional, heavy-duty excavation equipment. Excavation
sides will need to be sloped or braced to meet local, state and federal safety
regulations. The native gravel soil will classify as a Type C soil based on OSHA
standards governing excavations. Temporary slopes deeper than 5 feet should be
no steeper than 1.5 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) in Type C soils.
Free ground water was not observed in our exploratory pits at the time of
excavation. We do not expect seepage from the irrigation ditch will adversely affect
the planned building. Ground water levels will vary with seasonal conditions and are
normally closest to the ground surface during spring and early summer months.
Excavations should be sloped to a gravity discharge or to a temporary sump where
water can be removed by pumping. The ground surrounding the excavations should
be sloped as much as practical to direct runoff away from the excavations.
FOUNDATION
Our exploratory pits indicate the native, gravel soil is present at planned
foundation elevation for the proposed shop/garage building. The completed
foundation excavation should be inspected by a representative of our firm, prior to
placing forms, to confirm that the exposed soil is as anticipated from our exploratory
pits and suitable for support of the designed footings. We recommend constructing
the building on footing foundations supported by the undisturbed gravel soil. We
anticipate maximum total settlements of footing foundations supported on the native
gravel will be less than 1 inch. Recommended design and construction criteria for
footings are presented below.

1. Footing foundations should be supported by the undisturbed, gravel
soil. Soils loosened during excavation or the forming process for the
footings should be removed or the soils can be re -compacted prior to
placing concrete. If needed, a maximum 4 inch thick layer of
compacted CDOT Class 6 aggregate base course or similar soil can be
placed below footings as a leveling course.
2. Footings supported by the gravel can be designed for a maximum
allowable soil bearing pressure of 5,000 psf.
3. Continuous wall footings should have a minimum width of at least 16
inches. Foundations for isolated columns should have minimum
dimensions of 24 inches by 24 inches. Larger sizes may be required,
depending upon foundation Toads.
4. Grade beams and foundation walls should be well reinforced, top and
bottom, to span undisclosed loose or soft soil pockets. We
recommend reinforcement sufficient to span an unsupported distance
of at least 10 feet. Reinforcement should be designed by a qualified
structural engineer.
5. The soils beneath exterior footings should be protected from freezing.
We recommend the bottom of footings be constructed at a depth of at
least 36 inches below finished exterior grades for frost protection.
FLOOR SYSTEM AND SLABS -ON -GRADE
A slab -on -grade floor may be constructed in the shop/garage building. Based
on our laboratory test data and our experience, we judge slab -on -grade construction
can be supported by the undisturbed, gravel soil with low risk of differential
movement and associated damage. The floor slab should be separated from exterior
walls and interior bearing members with slip joints which allow free vertical
movement of the slabs. Exterior concrete flatwork should be isolated from the
building. Frequent control joints should be provided, in accordance with American
Concrete Institute (ACI) recommendations, to reduce problems associated with
shrinkage and curling.

BELOW -GRADE CONSTRUCTION
We understand no below -grade areas are planned in the building. If
construction plans change to include below -grade areas, we should be informed so
that we can provide geotechnical recommendations for lateral earth pressures and
subsurface drainage.
Backfill placed adjacentto foundation wall exteriors should be free of organic
matter, debris and rocks larger than 6 inches in diameter. Backfill should be
moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and
compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry
density.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
Surface drainage is critical to the performance of foundations, floor slabs and
concrete flatwork. We recommend the following precautions be observed during
construction and maintained at all times after the shop/garage building is completed:
1. The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building should be
sloped to drain away from the building in all directions. We
recommend providing a slope of at least 6 inches in the first 5 feet
around the building.
2. Backfill around the exterior of foundation walls should be placed in
maximum 10 inch thick loose lifts, moisture conditioned to within 2
percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95
percent of standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density.
3. The building should be provided with roof gutters and downspouts.
Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits
of all backfill. Splash blocks and downspout extensions should be
provided at all discharge points.
4. Landscaping should be carefully designed to minimize irrigation.
Plants used near foundation walls should be limited to those with low

moisture requirements; irrigated grass should not be located within 5
feet of the foundation. Sprinklers should not discharge within 5 feet
of the foundation and should be directed away from the building.
LIMITATIONS
The exploratory pits excavated at the site provide a reasonably accurate
picture of subsurface conditions. Variations in the subsurface conditions not
indicated by the pits will occur. We should observe the completed foundation
excavation to confirm the exposed soils are as anticipated from our exploratory pits
and suitable for support of the footings as designed.
Our report was based on conditions disclosed by our exploratory pits,
engineering analysis and our experience. Criteria presented reflect our
understanding of the proposed construction. If construction will differ significantly
from the descriptions in the report, we should be informed so that we can check that
our recommendations and design criteria are appropriate.
This investigation was conducted in a manner consistent with that level of
care and skill ordinarily exercised by engineering geologists and geotechnical
engineers currently practicing under similar conditions in the locality of this project.
No other warranty, express or implied, is made. If we can be of further service in
discussing the contents of this report or in the analysis of the influence of the
subsoil conditions on the design of the structure, please call.
