We explored the subsurface conditions to provide foundation recommendations for single family buildings. This report includes a description of the subsurface conditions found in our exploratory borings, recommended foundation systems and geotechnical criteria for them, design pavement section alternatives and construction criteria for details Influenced by the subsoils. Our report was prepared from data developed during our field exploration, laboratory testing, engineering analysis and our experience with similar conditions. A summary of our conclusions is presented below. SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS 1. Our exploratory borings penetrated nil to 0.5 feet of organic clays or up to 4 feet of man made fill constructed with the on site sandy clays. The organic clays and fill were above stiff to very stiff, silty to sandy clays. The silty to sandy clays were underlain by dense to very dense, silty to sandy gravels with cobble and boulder in our borings TH-1, TH-5 and TH-7 through TH-12. No Free groundwater was found in our borings during our field investigation. 2. Depending on soils found at foundation elevation the buildings can be founded with footings on the undisturbed natural gravels or footings with a minimum dead load on the natural clays. Maximum allowable soil pressures and minimum dead load pressure recommendations are presented In the "Foundations" section. 3. Basement and garage floors will be slabs -on -grade. Slabs -on -grade floors can bear on the natural gravels or clay subgrade (see "Floor Slabs and Exterior Concrete Flatwork" section). All "topsoil", existing fill or other deleterious material should be removed from beneath slabs -on -grade floors. 4. Drive areas should be paved with either 5 inches of full depth asphalt or 3 inches of asphalt above 7 inches of aggregate base (see "Pavement Construction" section).

Box 1989 Glenwood Springs, CO 81602 Attention: Mr. Steve Boat Job No. GS -2112 June 6, 1997 CTL/THOMPSON, INC. CONSULTING ENGINEERS 234 CENTER DRIVE ■ GLENWOOD SPRINGS, COLORADO 81601 ■ (970) 945-2809 5. Good surtace drainage is Important. Grading plans should allow for surface drainage away from the buildings and off the surtace of paved areas and should be maintained at all times to reduce wetting of subsoils (see "Surface Drainage" section). SITE CONDITIONS The subject site is approximately 10.6 acres located on a alluvial terrace above and to the south of the County Road 336. The New Castle/I-70 interchange Is approximately 2 miles to the west. The existing Riverbend subdivision is across County Road 335 to the southwest. Land to the south, east and west has not been built on. A wastewater treatment facility is being constructed on property adjacent to the north with the Colorado River beyond. Ground surfaces at the site slope down to the north at grades measured and visually estimated at 2 to 6 percent. Vegetation consists of native grasses and weeds. Utility and infrastructure construction Is in progress at the site. Roads have been roughed In and some fill has been placed In shallow drainages. An abandoned sewage disposal pond is being removed in the central part of the site. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Single family residential homes are to be built. The buildings will be one or two stories tall and wood framed. Basements will be an option. Basement and garage floors will be slabs -on -grade. Other floors In living areas will likely be structurally supported by the foundation with a crawlspace below. Foundation loads we assumed for our analysis were between 1000 and 3000 pounds per lineal foot on continuous footings and maximum interior column loads of 16 kips. We should be Informed If actual construction is different than described above. MESA STRUCTURES cTilt GS -2112 2 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Subsurface conditions were investigated by drilling twenty-one (21) exploratory borings at the approximate locations shown on Figure 1. Our borings TH-1 through TH-16 were drilled for foundation analysis. Our borings S-1 through S-5 were drilled for pavement analysis. Drilling and sampling was directed by our engineering geologist who logged the soils and obtained samples for testing in our laboratory. Summary logs of our exploratory borings are shown on Figures 2 and 3. Our exploratory borings penetrated nil to 0.5 feet of organic clays or up to 4 feet of man made fill constructed with the on site sandy clays. The organic clays and fill were above stiff to very stiff, silty to sandy clays. The silty to sandy clays were underlain by dense to very dense, silty to sandy gravels with cobble and boulder in our borings TH-1, TH-5 and TH-7 through TH-12. No Free groundwater was found In our borings during our field investigation. We encountered auger refusal on cobble and boulder. In our opinion excavations for foundations and utilities can be accomplished with medium to Targe, heavy earthmoving equipment. We do not believe excavations into the granular soils will be more difficult at this site than at other sites in the locale. Estimated depths to gravels contours are presented on Figure 4. Laboratory testing to confirm field classifications and determine physical characteristics of the soils was performed. Results of our laboratory testing are shown on Figures 5 through 7 and summarized on Table 1. SITE GRADING We understand that grading will be limited to that required to construct basements and foundations. We anticipate maximum excavation depths of 10 feet. No fill will be below foundations but may be needed to achieve subgrade elevations MESA STRUCTURES CTLlr GS -2112 3 for garage floor slabs and exterior concrete flatwork. Areas to receive fill or bear slabs -on -grade should be stripped of vegetation, organic soils, existing fill or other deleterious materials. The resulting surface should be scarified to at least 8 inches deep, moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 698). On-site soils free of organic matter, rock larger than 6 inches In diameter or other deleterious materials can be used as fill. Fill should be moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of, optimum moisture content, placed in maximum 8 inch thick loose lifts and compacted to at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor maximum dry density. Fill placed in areas not to be built on can be placed as "common fill" and can be compacted to 90 percent of ASTM D 698. Excavation sides will need to be sloped or braced. We believe the gravels are Type C and the clays Type B as described in the October, 1989 Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standard governing excavations published by the Department of Labor. The publication Indicates that temporary slopes should be no steeper than 1.5:1 (horizontal to vertical) for Type C soils or 1 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) for Type B soils above the groundwater level. Soils removed from an excavation should not be stockpiled at the edge of the excavation. We recommend the excavated soils be placed at a distance from the top of the excavation equal to at least the depth of the excavation. Free groundwater was not encountered in our exploratory borings. Depending upon excavation depths and time of year water may be present. if free groundwater Is encountered, we recommend the excavations be sloped to sumps where water can be removed by pumping. FOUNDATIONS At footing elevations (approximately 4 and. 8 feet deep) our borings encountered stiff to very stiff, sandy clays or dense to very dense, sandy gravels MESA STRUCTURES CTL/T GS -2112 4 with cobble and boulder. Topsoil, existing fill or other deleterious material should be removed from beneath the building footprints. We judge the natural gravels to have excellent foundation support characteristics. Most of the clays tested exhibited a low to moderate swell potential. We recommend the buildings be founded with footings. At lots where gravels are exposed at foundation elevations, footings with a comparatively high soil pressure can be used. At lots where clays are exposed we recommend footings with a minimum dead load. We have assumed Tight structures that are sufficiently flexible to withstand some differential foundation movement will be' built. The recommended maximum soil pressures and dead Toad pressures presented below should result in total settlement on the order of one inch. Maximum differential settlement may be one half of the actual total settlement. The risk of excessive differential or localized settlement can be reduced by careful attention to drainage precautions discussed under "Surface Drainage". Where excavations expose the natural gravels at foundation depths, we recommend footings at a comparatively high soil bearing pressure. Where low to moderately expansive clays are exposed at foundation elevations we recommend footings with a minimum dead load. We were told that basements are planned for most lots. Excavations for basements would generally extend through the clays and expose gravels on lots 5 through 11. On lots 1 through 4 and 12 through 16 we believe footings will bear on the natural clays. Footings can be designed using the following criteria: Type 1 Foundation - Footings On Gravels 1. Footings bearing on the natural gravels can be designed for a maximum allowable soil bearing pressure of 5,000 psf. Material loosened during the excavation or forming process should be removed from footing areas or compacted prior to placing concrete; 2. Foundation walls for continuous footings should be reinforced top and bottom to span undisclosed loose soil pockets. We recommend steel reinforcement equivalent to that required for a simple span of 10 feet. Reinforcement should be designed by a qualified structural engineer; MESA STRUCTURES CTLJT GS -2112 5 3. Minimum footing sizes are desirable. We recommend a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous footings and at least 2 feet by 2 feet for isolated column footings. Larger sizes may be required based on the structural loads; 4. The soils beneath exterior footings should be protected from freezing. We recommend footings be at least 36 Inches below finished exterior grades. The local building department should be contacted to verify required frost protection depth. Type 2 Foundation - Footings On Clays 1. Footings bearing on clays can be designed for a maximum allowable soli bearing pressure of 3,000 psf and a minimum dead load of 1,000 psf. Material loosened during the excavation or forming process should be removed from footing areas or compacted prior to placing concrete; 2. Where footing pads are used below bearing walls a 4 -inch void should be "provided beneath the grade beam between pads to concentrate dead load of the building and to allow space for expansive soils to Swell; 3. Foundation walls for continuous footings should be reinforced top and bottom to span undisclosed loose soil pockets. We recommend steel reinforcement equivalent to that required for a simple span of 10 feet. Reinforcement should be designed by a qualified structural engineer; 4. The soils beneath exterior footings should be protected from freezing. We recommend footings be at least 36 Inches below finished exterior grades. The local building department should be contacted to verify required frost protection depth. FLOOR SLABS AND EXTERIOR CONCRETE FLATWORK We anticipate excavations will expose silty to sandy gravels or low to moderately expansive clays. We were told that basement floors will be slabs -on - grade. Floors in other living areas will be above basements. Garage floors and exterior concrete fiatwork will be slabs -on -grade. The native gravels will provide excellent support for slabs -on -grade. Slabs -on -grade on expansive soils is unpredictable. Slight increases in moisture content of expansive clay subgrade can MESA STRUCTURES CTLlr GS -2112 6 cause considerable heaving and cracking of slabs -on -grade. The only reliable method to mitigate floor movement on expansive soils is to construct structural floors with crawispaces below. Crawlspaces should be well ventilated. We believe, that slabs -on -grade will perform satisfactorily on the lots on which the clays are located as long as moisture Increases In the subsoil is minimized. We recommend the following design and construction criteria for slab -on -grade floors: 1. Slabs -on -grade should be placed directly on the natural gravels or clay subgrade prepared as discussed above under "Site Grading". Topsoil, existing fill or other deleterious material should be removed from beneath slabs -on -grade and replaced with non -swelling structural fill with 100 percent finer than 3 Inches and a minimum of 20 percent silty and clay size particles (passing the No. 200 sieve) Fill should be moisture treated to 2 percent below to 2 percent above optimum moisture content, placed in maximum 8 inch thick loose lifts and compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 698); 2. Slabs -on -grade should be separated from exterior walls and Interior bearing members. Vertical movement of slabs should not be restricted; 3. Plumbing below the slabs should be pressure tested prior to placing concrete. Trench backfill should be moisture treated to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 698); 4. Mechanical systems placed on slabs -on -grade should be provided with flexible couplings to prevent movement from being transmitted to plumbing and ductwork. Plumbing which passes through slabs -on - grade should be isolated with sleeves; 5. Frequent control joints should be provided. The American Concrete institute (AC1) recommends maximum joint spacing of 15 to 20 feet to control cracking. The above precautions will not prevent movement of slabs -on -grade floors in the event the soils become wet, but they will reduce damage when the movement occurs. MESA STRUCTURES CTLIT GS -2112 7 BASEMENT CONSTRUCTION Basement walls will be subject to lateral earth pressure. These walls are restrained and cannot move, therefore, they should be designed for the "at rest" lateral earth pressure. We assume on-site soils will be used as backfill. The native soils Tess than 4 -inches in diameter are appropriate for backfill. Where the on site gravels are used as backfill an equivalent fluid density of 45 pcf can be used to calculate the "at rest" lateral earth pressure. Where the on site clays are used as backfill an equivalent fluid density of 55 pcf can be used. The lateral earth pressure values do not include allowances for sloping backfill, hydrostatic pressures or surcharge loads. The risk of wet basement conditions can be reduced by careful attention to drainage precautions and recommendations discussed under °Surface Drainage°. Where footings bear on the natural clays, we recommend foundation drains to reduce the risk of accumulation of surface moisture adjacent to foundation walls. Drains should consist of a 4 -inch diameter open joint or slotted pipe encased in free draining gravel. The drains should lead to a positive gravity outlet. A detail for a typical foundation drain is presented in Figure 8. PAVEMENT CONSTRUCTION The subgrade soils were investigated by drilling five (5) exploratory borings at the approximate locations shown as S-1 through S-5 on Figure. 1. Subgrade soils at each boring were sampled by our engineering geologist who directed field operations and logged the soils penetrated. Subgrade soils were sandy clays. Our laboratory investigation was designed to provide index properties of the soils sampled and subgrade support values which influence the pavement design. A sample of the clay from each boring was subjected to classification tests to determine a group index. The clays had liquid limits of 37 to 44 percent, plastic indices of 20 to 27 percent and 94 to 97 percent silt and clay size particles (passing the No. 200 sieve). Group index was 19 to 26. Laboratory test results are presented on Table A-1. We estimated a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) value of 4. MESA STRUCTURES CTL/T GS -2112 8 EQ3 An equivalent daily load application (EDLA) of 3 which represents a design equivalent single axle load (ESAL) of 21,900 for a 20 year design period was used to determine the recommended pavement sections. Based on our calculations, we recommend 5.0 inches of full depth asphalt or 4 inches of asphalt underlain 7 inches of aggregate base In automobile parking or drive areas. We recommend a geotextlle fabric between the clay subgrade and aggregate base. Prior to paving, the entire pavement subgrade should be scarified, moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of maximum standard Proctor dry density (ASTM D 698). Fill below pavement to achieve the subgrade elevations should be moisture conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of ASTM D 698 maximum dry density. Import soils should be evaluated by our laboratory prior to trucking the material to the site. Before placing base course or full depth asphalt, we recommend the entire subgrade surface be proof rolled with a heavy (18 klps/axie) pneumatic tired vehicle such as a loaded ten wheel dump truck. Areas which deform excessively should be overexcavated and recompacted or otherwise stabilized. Pavements will require careful material and construction control. If a combination section is used, the aggregate base course should have a minimum R value of 78. The base course should be moisture conditioned to near optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of maximum modified Proctor dry density (ASTM D 1557). Asphalt should have a total resistance (Rt) of at least 95 and should be compacted to 95 percent maximum Marshal density. We recommend the asphalt be designed with at least 1650 pound Marshall Stability. The oil content, void ratio and gradation need to be considered in the design. SURFACE DRAINAGE The performance of foundations and concrete flatwork Is influenced by the moisture conditions in the subsoils. The risk of wetting foundation soils can be MESA STRUCTURES CTLJT GS -2112 9 reduced by planned and maintained surface drainage. Wetting or drying of open foundation excavations should be avoided. The ground surface surrounding the residences should be sloped to drain away from the residences In all directions. We recommend a slope of at least 12 inches in the first 10 feet. yn Plastic sheeting does not allow evaporation to escape and should not be used adjacent to the buildings. A geotextlle fabric can be used adjacent to the buildings for weed control which will allow evaporation to occur and therefore not increase the moisture content In the subsoils. Sprinkler heads should be no closer than 5 feet from the buildings and should be directed away from the buildings. Where buildings are founded on the clays we recommend landscaping within 5 feet of the buildings be with native fauna or other scheme with low irrigation requirements. Backfill of the foundation walls can be with on-site material, less than 4 inches In diameter, moisture treated to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density. Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill. Splash blocks or extensions should be provided at all downspout discharge locations. LIMITATIONS Our exploratory borings were spaced to obtain a reasonably accurate picture of the subsurface. Variations in the subsurface conditions not indicated by our exploratory borings will occur. We should observe the completed excavations to confirm the soils are as anticipated from our exploratory borings. Our report was based on conditions disclosed by our exploratory borings, results of laboratory testing, engineering analysis and our experience. Criteria presented reflects the proposed buildings as we understand them. We should be MESA STRUCTURES CTLIT GS -2112 10 advised if the final design differs from our assumptions to permit us to re-evaluate our conclusions and recommendations. This investigation was conducted in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by 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 or If you have questions regarding this report, please call. CTL/THOMPSON, INC. Wilson L.

Job No. GS -2112 Fig. A-2 • MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENTS The primary cause for deterioration of low traffic volume pavements is oxidative aging resulting in brittle pavements. Tire loads from traffic are necessary to "work" or knead the asphalt concrete to keep it flexible and rejuvenated. Preventive maintenance treatments will typically preserve the original or existing pavement by providing a protective seal or rejuvenating the asphalt binder to extend pavement life. The primary cause for deterioration of high traffic volume pavements is loss of integrity of the asphalt concrete and subgrade failure. High volumes also create pavement rutting and smooth, polished surfaces. Preventive maintenance treatments will typically preserve the original or existing pavement by providing a protective seal and improving skid resistance through a new wearing course. 1. Annual Preventive Maintenance a. Visual pavement evaluations shall be performed each spring or fall. b. Reports documenting the progress of distress shall be kept current to provide information on effective times to apply preventive maintenance treatments. c. Crack sealing shall be performed annually as new cracks appear. 2. 3 to 5 Year Preventive Maintenance a. The owner should budget for a preventive treatment at approximate intervals of 3 to 5 years to reduce oxidative embrittlement problems. b. Typical preventive maintenance treatments include chip seals, fog seals, slurry seals and crack sealing. 3. 5 to 10 Year Corrective Maintenance a. Corrective maintenance may be necessary, as dictated by the pavement condition, to correct rutting, cracking and structurally failed areas. b. Corrective maintenance may include full depth patching, milling and overlays. c. In order for the pavement to provide a 20 year service life, at least one major corrective overlay can be expected. MESA STRUCTURES CTUT GS -2112 A-3 MAINTENANCE FOR RIGID PAVEMENTS High traffic volumes create pavement rutting and smooth, polished surfaces. Preventive maintenance treatments will typically preserve the original or existing pavement by providing a protective seal and improving skid resistance through a new wearing course. 1. Annual Preventive Maintenance a. Visual pavement evaluations shall be performed each spring or fall. b. Reports documenting the progress of distress should be kept current to provide information of effective times to apply preventive maintenance. c. Crack sealing shall be performed annually as new cracks appear. 2.4 to 8 Year Preventive Maintenance a. The owner should budget for a preventive treatment at approximate intervals of 4 to 8 years to reduce joint deterioration. b. Typical preventive maintenance for rigid pavements include patching, crack sealing and joint cleaning and sealing. c. Where joint sealants are missing or distressed, resealing is mandatory. 3. 15 to 20 Year Corrective Maintenance a. Corrective maintenance for rigid pavements includes patching and slab replacement to correct subgrade failures, edge damage and material failure. b. Asphalt concrete overlays may be required at 15 to 20 year intervals to Improve the structural capacity of the pavement.
