Arno,
Attached you will find a copy of the Soils Report for the McElwee Residence as
discussed by phone.
You should also find a copy of the survey attached to each set of drawings.
I have completed the structural design in house. The soil bearing capacity of 2000
lbs. per square foot was complied with and the roof and all floors were designed to
support 40 lbs. per square foot live load.
Sorry I failed to stamp the drawings. However, at the time of delivery of this letter I
will add my stamp to the drawings.
If you have any other questions, please give my a call.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed McElvee Residence, Lot
32, Filing 5, Los Amigos Subdivision, Garfield County, Colorado.
Dear Mr. McElvee:
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 May 9, 2000. 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 two story wood frame
construction with an attached garage. Ground floors will be slab -on -grade. Cut depths
are expected to range between about 3 to 4 feet. Foundation loadings for this type of
construction 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: Lot 32 is located on the south side of Los Amigos Drive. The lot is
vegetated with a pinyon and juniper tree forest with a ground cover of grass and weeds.
Numerous basalt cobbles and boulders are exposed on the ground surface and a possible
sheet flow of basalt rock was observed at the southern part of the building area. The
ground surface is gently sloping down the south. Elevation difference across the
building site is about 1 to 2 feet.
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 about 11/2 feet of
topsoil, consist of basalt cobbles and boulders in a silty sand matrix. Silty sand was
observed in Pit 1 at 1 foot through 3 feet. Results of swell -consolidation testing
Gary McElvee
May 31, 2000
Page 2
performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the silty sand, presented on Fig. 3,
indicate low compressibility under existing moisture conditions and light loading and a
low collapse potential when wetted. No free water was observed in the pits at the time
of excavation and the soils were 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 2,000 psf for support of the proposed residence. The 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 the
undisturbed natural soils. Voids created from boulder removal should be filled with
compacted structural fill or concrete. 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 10 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 to moderately 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 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 devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock.
H -P GEOTECH
Gary McElvee
May 31, 2000

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 graded 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 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.

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.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed McElvee Residence, Lot
32, Filing 5, Los Amigos Subdivision, Garfield County, Colorado.
Dear Mr. McElvee:
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 May 9, 2000. 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 two story wood frame
construction with an attached garage. Ground floors will be slab -on -grade. Cut depths
are expected to range between about 3 to 4 feet. Foundation loadings for this type of
construction 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: Lot 32 is located on the south side of Los Amigos Drive. The lot is
vegetated with a pinyon and juniper tree forest with a ground cover of grass and weeds.
Numerous basalt cobbles and boulders are exposed on the ground surface and a possible
sheet flow of basalt rock was observed at the southern part of the building area. The
ground surface is gently sloping down the south. Elevation difference across the
building site is about 1 to 2 feet.
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 about 11/2 feet of
topsoil, consist of basalt cobbles and boulders in a silty sand matrix. Silty sand was
observed in Pit 1 at 1 foot through 3 feet. Results of swell -consolidation testing
Gary McElvee

Page 2
performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the silty sand, presented on Fig. 3,
indicate low compressibility under existing moisture conditions and light loading and a
low collapse potential when wetted. No free water was observed in the pits at the time
of excavation and the soils were 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 2,000 psf for support of the proposed residence. The 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 the
undisturbed natural soils. Voids created from boulder removal should be filled with
compacted structural fill or concrete. 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 10 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 to moderately 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. FIoor 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 devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock.

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 graded 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 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.
