CTL I Thompson, lnc, has completed a geotechnical engineering investi- ,
gation for the Mahaffey Residence at 4654 Çounty Road 309 in Garfield Drive,, :
Colorado. We conducted this investigation to evaluate subsurface conditions at i
the site and provide geotechnicalengineering recommendations for the planned ,
construction. The scope of our investigation was set forth in our proposal No. GS
21-0302. Our report was prepared from data developed from our field explqra-
i
tion, laboratory testing, engineering analysis, and our experience wlih similar,
:
conditions- This report incfudes a description of the subsurface conditions ob:
:
served in our exploratory pits and provides geotechnical engineering recom**n-,
dations for design and construction of the foundation, below-grade walls, and de-,
tails influenced by the subsoils. A summary of our conclusions is below. : ,
SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS
1 subsoils encountered in our exploratory pits generally consisted of ' :
about 6 inches of topsoil and nil to 4 feet of sandy clay filt, underlain by,
natural, sandy clay with scattered gravel to the total excavated depth óf,I feet. Groundwater was not found in our exploratory pits at the time of,
our subsur{ace investigation. I I

GEOLOGY AND GEOLOG]C HAZARDS.
we reviewed the geologic map by the u.s. Geology survey (u$GS) tifled,i
"Geologic Map of the Rulison Quadrangle, Garfield county, colorado',, by yeendi
Donnell, and Smith (dateO lgBS). The residence is proposed in an area that is
.
mapped as eañhflow and soil creep deposits of the Holocene Epoch, Theqe de- ,
posits are described as poorly*sorted, boulders, cobbles, and gravel in a matrix ',
of sandy silt. The deposits are generally derived from landslide and cotluvialfea- ,
tures. The mapping indicates these deposits are typicalty undqrlain by claystone-,
rich bedrock of the Wasatch Formation. The soils found Ìn our exploratory pits
iare generally consistent with the geologic mapping. Due to the depositional i imethod, the soildeposits have not been subject to signÍficant geologic loads. , ,
These soils are prone to consolidation when wetted under buílding loads. We i ,,
iudge the sandy clay and sandy silt at the site has potentiat for moderate to high ,
amounts of consolidation when wetted under building loads. :
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Subsurface condition$ were investigated by observing the excavation et
two exploratory pits (TP-1 and TP-2) at the slte. The pits were excavated with a
trackhoo at the approximate locations shown on Figure 2, Exploratory excavation
operations were direcied by our representative, who logged subsurface condi.
tions encountered and obtained samples of tho soils. Graphic logs of the soils,
found in our exploratory pits are shown on Figure 3. :

complished with çonventíonal, heavy-duty excavation equipment, such ". " re- ,

maintaining safe and stable excavations. Contractors should identify the soils en-'
countered in excavations and ensure that osHA standards are met. : ,
Free groundwater was not encountered in our exploratory pits at the time
of our subsurface Ìnvestigation. We do not expect excavation for the residence

Foundation Wall Backfi ll
Proper placement and compactlon of foundation wall backfillis important
to rcduce infiltration of surfaoe water and consolidation settlement of backfill
soils. Thle is especially important for backfill areas that wlll support extedor oon-
crete ffahrcrk, suctt as patios. The excavated soils free of rocks larger than 4
lnches in diameter, organhs, and debris can be reused as bad<fill adiacent to
foundation wall exteriors.
Backfill ehould be placed in loose lifts of approximately 10 inches tfilcft or
less, molsture-conditíoned to withln 2 percent of optimurn moisture content, and
compacted to at least g6 percent of standard Prcctor (ASTM D S98) maximurn

Some amount of subsurface wettlng is inherent afler a building is con-
structed. The recommendations in the suBsuRFAcE DRAIÌ{AGE and
SURFACE DRAINAGE sestions willbe criticalto reduce the amount of subsur.
face wetting beloru the building and enhance the potentlal performance of fooþ
ings.
Recommended desþn and construction criteria for footing foundations are
below. These criteria nßre developed based on our analysis of fìeH and labora-
tory datra, as wellâs our englneering experlenoe.
The reeidence can be construc{ed on a footing bundation that is
suppoded by a 3-foot lhickness of densaly-eompac.ted, structural
fill, The struc{uralfillshould be in accordanoe with üre subexcava-
tion and Structural Flllsectlon.
Footlngs on the structuralfillcan be sized using a ¡naximum net al-
lorable bearing prcssure of 3,000 psf. The weight of bacltflll eoil
above the nootings can be neglected fior bearing pressure carcura-
tlon.
Gontinuoue wall footings should have a minimum width of at least
16 inches. Foundations for isolated columns should haræ mrnrmum
dimensions of 24 inches by 24 inches. Larger sizes may be re-
quired, depending upon foundation loads
Grade beams and foundation walls should be well-reinforoed to
span undisclosed loose or soft soil pockets. We recommend rein-
forcement sufftcient to span an unsupported dlstance of at least 12

CR^AWL SPAGF COI-ISTRUCTION
A crawl $pace will be below the modular residence. The required air space
between the floor system and ihe soils at the bottom of the crawl $pace depends,
on the materials used to construct the floor. Building codes normally require a :.:
clear space of at least 18 inches between exposed earth and untreated Wood, ',
floor components of the strueturalflocr. Fornon-organic systems, we recom-,
,
mend a minimum clear space of 12 ínchesi . ,.
utility connections, including water, gas, air duct, and exhaust stack con-
nections to appliances on structuralfloors should be capable of absorbing some
deflection of the floor. Plumbing that passes through the floor should ideally be
hung from the underside of the structural floor and not laid on the bottom of the
excavaiion. lt is prudent to maintain the minimum clear space below all plumbing
lines. :
Üontrol of humídity in crawl spaces is important for indoor air qualíty and ',
performance of wood floor systems. We believe the best current practices to con-
trol humidity ínvolve the use of a vapor retarder or vapor barrier (10 mil minimum):
placed on the goils below accessible subfloor âreas. The vapor retarder/barrier
',
should be sealed at joints and attached to concrete foundaiion elements. lt may
,
be appropriatg to installventilation systems that are controlled by humidistat, i :
FOUNDA.TION WALLS
Foundation walls which extend below-grade should be designed for lateral
eartl'¡ pfessures where backfill is not present to about the same extent on both: :
sides of the wall, such as in crawl spaces. Many factors affect the values of the :
design lateral earth pressure. These factors include, but are not limited to, the; :

type, compaction, slope, ?0d drainage of the backfill, and the rigidity of the walt
againstrotationanddeflection" : ' ,','
For a very rigid wallwhere negligible or very little deflection willocçur, an :
"at-rest" lateral earth pressure should be used in design. For walls that can dq-
I
flect or rotate 0.5 to I percent of Wall height {depending upon the backfill types),
'
design for a lower "active" lateral earth pressure may be appropriate. Our experi-,
ence indicates typical below-grade walls in residences deflect or rotate slightly
:
under normal design loads, and that this deflection results in satisfactory wall, ,
performance. Thus, the earth pres$ures on the walls will likely be between the-,
:
"active" and "at-rest" condítions. ' ,
For backfill soils conforming with recommendations Ín the FoundAlion.J{,#,1lj
Bac-kfill section that are not saturated, we recommend design of befow-grade i ',
walls at this site using an equivalent fluid densíty of at leaet 45 pcf . This vafue as-
sume$ deflection; some minor cracking of walls may oÇcur. lf very little wall de=
:

an equivalent fluid pressure of 60 pcf may be appropriate. These equívalent den-,
síties do not incf ude allowances for sloping backfill, surcharges or hydrostatic i
ipfeSSUfeS, , ,
SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE
Water from precipitation, snowmelt, and irrígation frequently flows through,
relatively permeable backfill placed adjacent to a residence and collects on the
:
surface of less permeable soils at the bottom of foundation excavations. This pro*
cess can cause wet or moist conditions in below-grade areas, such as crawl . :
spaces, after construction. To reduce the likelihood water pressure will develop
,
outside foundation walls and the risk of accurnuJation of water ln below-grade ar-
oa$, we recommend provision of a foundation wall drain. , ,

The foundation draín should consist of 4-inch diameter, slotted pvc pipe ,

SURFACE DRAINAGE
Surface drainage is criticalto the performance of foundations. $ite drain-
age should be designed to rapidly convey surface water away from the resi-
.
dence. Proper suface drainage and irrigation practices can help control the :
amount of surface water that penetrates to foundation levels and contrjbutes to
settlement or heave of soils that support foundations and other structures. Posi-
tive drainage away from the foundation and avoidance of irrigation near the foqn-
dation also help io avoid excessíve wettíng of backfillsoils, which can lead to in-
creased backfill settlement and possibly to higher lateralearth pressures, due to
increased weight and reduced strength of the backfill. We recommend the follow-
ing precautions. :
The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the residence i ,
should be sloped to drain away from the building in alr directions. :we recommend a minimurn constructed slope of at reast 1z inches ,
ín the first 10 feet (10 percent) in landscaped areas around the reqi-,
{ence, ., :
:
Backfillaround the foundation walls should be moisture-treated and
compacled pursuant to recommendatíons in ihe Foundation wal[
Fgckf¡ll section. _.-
,
We recommend the residence be provided with roof gutters and :
downspouts. The downspouts should discharge well beyond the, :
limits oÍ all backfill. splash blocks and/or extensions shourd be pro-

vided at alldownspouts so water discharges onto the ground be.
yond the backfill. We generally recommend against burial of down-sPqqtdischarge; : '. , , : ,
4 lrrigation should be limited to the minimum amount sutficient to,
maintain vegetation; application of rnore water will increase rikeri-
hood of slab and foundation movements. plants placed crose to:
foundation walls should be limited to those with low moisture re;
quirements, lrrigated grâss should not be located within 5 feet of
the foundation. Sprinklers should not discharge within 5 feet of ,
foundations. Plastic sheeting should not be placed beneath rand-
scaped areas adjacent to foundation walls or grade beams. Geq-
textile fabric will inhibit weed growth yet still allow natural evâpora-tiontooccur.. : . . , : : :
CONCRETE
Concrete in contact with soil can be subject to sulfate attack. Our experi* i
ence in the area of the site indìcates the soils contain low levels of water-soluble ,
sulfates. ACI 332-08, "Code Requirements for Resídential Concrete", indicatgs t,
that any type of cement can be used for concrete in contact with the subsoils that
have low levels of sulfate concentration. : ,
ln our experience, superficial damage may occur to the exposed surfaqes
of highly-permeable concrete, even though sulfate levels are relatively low. To.
control this risk and to resist freeze-thaw deterioration, the water-to-cementitíous
materials ratio should not exceed 0.50 for concrete in contact with soils that are
likely to stay moist due to surface drainage or high-water tables. Concrete should
have a total air Çqntent of 6 percent +/- 1.5 percent. We recommend all founda.
tonwafs and gfade þeams in contactwith the subsoils be damp-proofed.

GEOTECHNICAL RI$K
The concept of risk is an important aspect of any geotechnícal evaluation. ,
The primary rea$on for this is that the analytical rnethods used to develop ge-,
l
otechnical recommendations do not comprise an exact science, The analyticaf
:
tools which geotechnical engineers use are generally empirical and must be tem-i
pered by engineering judgment and experience. Therefore, the solutions or rec-
:
ommendations presented in any geotechnlcal evaluation should not be consid-
j
ered risk-free and are not a guarantee that the interaction between the soils and i
the proposed structure will lead to performance äs desired or intended. The engi-i
neering recommendations in the preceding sectíons constitute our estimate of
:
those measures neÇes$ary to help the buildíng perform satisfactorily. i ,
