Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Parcel A,
Christeleit Subdivision, County Road 119, Garfield County, Colorado.
Job No. 4 462 92
Dear Ron:
As requested, Chen - Northern, 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 August 3, 1992. The data obtained and our
recommendations based on the proposed construction and subsurface conditions
encountered are presented in this 'report. We understand the geologic conditions and
hazards at the site were evaluated by Nicholas Lampiris.
Proposed Construction: The proposed residence will be a two -story wood frame structure
over a crawl space with an attached garage. Ground floor in the garage will be slab -on-
grade. Cut depths of about 2 to 6 feet are assumed. Foundation loadings for this type of
construction are assumed to be relatively light.
If building conditions or foundation loadings are significantly different from those described
above, we should be notified to reevaluate the recommendations presented in this report.
)') /,1 i C i" `t'
P R�l1M 1 N AW
Site Conditions: The site was vacant at the time of our site visit. The building area slopes
moderately down to the north and west with about 5 to 6 feet of elevation change across the
proposed building footprint as pointed out to us in the field by the client. Basalt cobbles
and boulders were observed on the ground surface at the site. Large basalt boulders were
observed on a small knoll above the building area. The site is vegetated with sagebrush and
scrub oak.
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by excavating
four exploratory pits around the building area. The Togs of the pits are presented on Figs. 1
and 2. The subsoils encountered, below about 1/2 to 1 1/2 feet of topsoil, consist of silty
sand with basalt fragments on the south side of the residence and basalt cobbles and
boulders in a silty sand and gravel matrix on the north side of the residence. Results of
swell - consolidation tests performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the silty sand
indicate low to moderate compressibility under Light to moderate surcharge and a low
collapse potential when wetted under constant light surcharge. No free water was observed
in the pits at the time of excavation.
Three pits were also excavated in the proposed leach field area for percolation testing. The
percolation test results are described below.
Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsoils 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 pressureof 1500 psf for
support of the proposed residence. 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 footings extended
down to adequate natural bearing material. 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 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 45 pcf.
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 gravels devoid of vegetation, topsoil Fb`Oersized rock.
pRE
Underdrain System: Although free water was not encountered during our exploration, it has
been our experience in mountainous areas that local perched groundwater may 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 retaining
walls, crawl space and 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 level of excavation and at least 1 foot below lowest adjacent finish grade and sloped
at a minimum 1% to a suitable gravity outlet. Free - draining granular material used in the
underdrain system should contain less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve, Ids than 50%
passing the No. 4 sieve and have a maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel backfill
should be at least 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 graded
soils to reduce surface water infiltration. ����.AN
PR
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 12 inches in the firsUALfeet in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches
in the first 10 feet in pavement and walkway areas. A swale may be needed uphill
of the house to direct surface runoff around the residence.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill.
Percolation Tests: Three percolation tests were performed west of the proposed building
area on August 26, 1992 in holes excavated and soaked the previous day by the client. The
test results are shown on Table II. The percolation rates ranged from 30 to 48 minutes per
inch. We believe an average percolation rate of 40 minutes per inch should be suitable for
septic system design. A deep pit excavated in the proposed leach field area indicated that
the calcareous silty sand with basalt fragments encountered below the thin topsoil layer e
extends down to a depth of at least 8 feet. No free water was observed in the deep leach
field pit.
Limitations: This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted soil and
,a
foundation engineering practices in this area for use by the client for design purposes. The
conclusions and recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained
from the exploratory pits excavated at the and the proposed type of
construction. The nature and extent of subsurface variations across the site may not become
evident until further excavation is performed. If during construction, fill, soil, rock or water
conditions appear to be different from those described herein, this office should be advised
at once so reevaluation of the recommendations may be made. We recommend on -site
observation of excavations and foundation bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a
representative of the soil engineer.
Sincerely,
CHEN - NORTHERN, INC.

low collapse potential when wetted under constant light surcharge. The laboratory testing
is summarized on Table I. No free water was observed in the pits at the time of excavation.
Three shallow pits were excavated in the proposed leach field area for percolation testing.
The percolation test results are described below.
Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsoils encountered in the exploratory pits

support of the proposed residence. Footings should be a minimum width of 16 inches for
continuous walls and 2 feet for columns. There could be differential settlement between
footings bearing on the silty sand and footings bearing on the basalt cobbles and boulders,
mainly due to post - construction wetting of the subsoils. Loose and disturbed soils
encountered at the foundation bearing level within the excavation should be removed and
the footings extended down to adequate natural bearing material. 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
