Subject: Subsoil Study for Design of Foundations, Proposed Residence, Lot
M-27, Midland Point, Midland Point Road, Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. Placek:
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 Crystal Constructors, Inc. dated
April 1, 2002. 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 wood frame construction
consisting mostly of one story with vaulted ceilings and approximately 700 square feet
of second story over a full basement level and attached garage located on the site as
shown on Fig. 1. Ground floors will be slab -on -grade. Cut depths are expected to
range between about 4 to 10 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 lot was vacant at the time of our site visit and is located on the
north side of Midland Point Road in the northwest portion of the subdivision. Minor
overlot grading during subdivision development had been previously performed. The
ground surface is flat and slightly sloping down to the northeast. Vegetation consists of
scattered grass and weeds. Eagle Valley Evaporite bedrock is exposed in the hills to the
southwest.
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by
excavating two exploratory pits at the approximate locations shown on Fig. 1. The logs
of the pits are presented on Fig. 2. The subsoils encountered, below a shallow topsoil
depth, consist of approximately 31/2 to 7 feet of medium stiff, silty sandy clay overlying
relatively dense, sandy gravel with cobbles and boulders. Results of a swell -
consolidation test performed on a relatively undisturbed sample of sandy clay, presented
Crystal Constructors, Inc.
April 12, 2002
Page 2
on Fig. 3, indicate low compressibility under existing moisture conditions and light
loading and moderate compressibility with increased loading after wetting. No free
water was observed in the pits at the time of excavation and the soils were slightly
moist.
Subsidence Potential: The Midland Point subdivision is underlain by Pennsylvania
Age Eagle Valley Evaporite bedrock. The evaporate contains gypsum deposits.
Dissolution of the gypsum under certain conditions can cause sinkholes to develop and
can produce areas of localized subsidence. Sinkholes were not observed in the
immediate area of the subject lot. The exploratory pits were relatively shallow, for
foundation design only. Based on our present knowledge of the site, it cannot be said
for certain that sinkholes will not develop. In our opinion, the risk of ground
subsidence at Lot M-27 is low, but the owner should be aware of the potential for
sinkhole development.
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 clay soils be designed for an allowable soil
bearing pressure of 1,500 psf for support of the proposed residence. Footings bearing
entirely on the dense gravel soils below the clay can be designed for an allowable soil
bearing pressure of 3,000 psf. The settlement could be differential between footings
bearing on clay and footings bearing on gravel. The upper clay soils tend to compress
after wetting and there could be some post -construction foundation settlement. Footings
should be a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls and 2 feet for columns.
Loose and disturbed soils encountered at the foundation bearing level within the
excavation should be removed and the footing bearing level extended down to
undisturbed natural soils. Exterior footings should be provided with adequate cover
above their bearing elevations for frost protection. Placement of footings at Ieast 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 walls acting as retaining
structures should be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent
fluid unit weight of at least 50 pcf for the on-site soil as backfill.
Floor Slabs: The natural on-site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support
lightly loaded slab -on -grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential
movement, 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 grave!
should be placed beneath basement level and garage floor slabs to facilitate drainage.
Crystal Constructors, Inc.
April 12, 2002
Page 3
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 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 basement areas, be protected from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an
underdrain system.
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 Ievel of excavation and at (cast 1 foot below lowest adjacent
finish grade and sloped at a minimum 1% to a suitable gravity outlet, such as a drywell,
or sump and pump. Free -draining granular material used in the underdrain system
should contain less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve, less than 50% passing the No. 4
sieve and have a maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel backfill should be at least
11/2 feet deep.
Surface Drainage: The following drainage precautions should be observed during
construction and maintained at all times after the residence has been completed:
1) 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, finer gradedsoils 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 6 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved
areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the first 10 feet in pavement
and walkway areas.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of
all backfill.
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 expressed 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 Fig. 1 and to the depths shown on Fig. 2, 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 pits 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 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
engineer.
If you have any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know.
Sincerely,

NOTES:
1. Exploratory pits were excavated on April 1, 2002 with a Caterpillar 416C backhoe.
2. Locations of exploratory pits were measured approximately by pacing from features on the site plan
provided.
3. Elevations of exploratory pits were measured by hand level and Pit 1 is 2 feet higher than Pit 2.
4. The exploratory pit locations and elevations should be considered accurate only to the degree implied
by the method used.
5. The lines between materials shown en the exploratory pit logs represent the approximate aoundaries
between material types and transitions may be gradual.
6. No free water was encountered in the pits at the time of excavating. Fluctuations in water level may
occur with time.
