The laboratory tests included Atterberg limits (ASTM D 4318), dry unit weight determinations, moisture content measurements (ASTM D22 l 6), un_consolidated undrained triaxial tests (ASTM D 2850), and soluble sulfate tests (TxDOT Tex-154-E). These tests are required by the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards. The results of these tests are provided on the Logs of Borings presented on Figures 2 through 7 and in Figures 8 through 12. 5.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS _A brief description of the conditions that were encountered in the borings is presented below . A more detailed description of the subsurface conditions is presented on the attached Lo gs of Borings. It should be noted that the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate and may vary. In addition , the depths shown on the Boring Logs refer to the depth s from the ground surfaces that were present at the time of the field exploration program . 5.1 Site Geology The sites are located in an area underlain by the Grayson Marl and Mainstream Limestone undivided . The Grayson Marl generally consists of predominately calcareous clay with some limestone, clays, and shale. The Main Street Limestone Formation generally consists of residual clays overlying massive gray limestone with some calcareous shale. At this site, the Grayson Marl and Main Street Limestone consist of residual clay underlain by weathered limestone, with clay layers . MACTEC Engineering and Consulting, In c. Report No . 4900-06-3019 Page2 DO-5154 -Chrickering Road and Fairfax Street, Pavement Design, Fort Worth , Texas S eptemb er 15 , 2006 5.2 Stratigraphy All borings were drilled through the existing pavement sections. The pavement sections consist of 4 to 6 inches of asphalt concrete pavement over 6 to 12 inches of base material, except in Boring B-3. In Boring B-3 ; the asphaltic concrete is underlain by 8 inches of concrete pavement. Beneath the pavement is yellowish brown clay, with limestone pieces , calcareous deposits and nodules extending to depths of 4 to 7 feet. Beneath this yellowish brown clay is yellowish brown and light gray shaly clay, with sand seams, to depths of 8 to 9.5 feet, except in Boring B-4. The shaly clay is not present in Boring B-4 . Beneath the clay is tan, weathered limestone, with clay layers , extending to the l O foot depth explored. The yellowish b°rown clay, with limestone pieces, calcareous deposits and nodules has liquid limit (LL) values ranging from 45 to 66 percent, plastic limit (PL) varying from 19 to 26 percent, and plasticity index (PI) values ranging from 25 to 45 percent. In-situ moisture contents of the yellowish brown clay, with limestone pieces, calcareous deposits and nodules varied from 6 to 21 percent. Unconsolidated-Undrained (UU) compressive strengths of these materials ranged from 6.4 to 13 .1 kips per square foot (ksf). The yellowish brown and light gray shaly clay has LL values of 72 to 80 percent, PL values of 25 to 29 percent, and Pl values of 4 7 to 51 percent. In-situ moisture contents of the yellowish brown and light gray shaly clay varied from 11 to 28 percent. 5.3 Groundwater Conditions All borings were drilled using continuous flight auger methods which allow measurement of ground water during or after completion. Ground-water seepage was not encountered and all borings were dry at completion of drilling. An accurate determination of the uppermost water bearing zone would require the installation of ground-water monitoring wells and a water level monitoring program extending over several days. The presence and amount of ground water will fluctuate seasonally due to variations in the amount of precipitation, infiltration and evaporation. The evaluation of the potential presence of pollution or contaminants in the soil or ground water at this site is beyond the scope of this project. MACTEC Engineering and Consulting, In c. Report No . 4900-06-3019 Page 3 DO-5 I 54 -Chrickering Road and Fairfax Street, Pavement Design, Fort Worth, Texas Se1:..tember I 5, 2006 6.0 ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Dark to reddish brown clay was encountered at the surface in all borings and extended to depths of 4 to 7 feet. A swell ratio, SR (as defined in the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual), greater than 1.0 was calculated for these soils. Therefore, modification or stabilization of the sub grade soils is required by the City standard. 7 .0 PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS Pavement recommendations for this project were developed in accordance with Section 4 of the City of Fort ·Worth Pavement Design Standards. 7.1 Subgrade Preparation Stabilization is necessary where the subgrade is clay. Based on the Atterberg Limits tests, a minimum of 8 percent hydrated lime should be used. This lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the top of the sub grade (THO Item 260) and the mixture compacted to a minimum of95 percent of maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM D 698, within ±2 percent of optimum moisture content. We recommend that this lime stabilization extend 2 feet beyond exposed pavement edges, in order to reduce the effects of shrinkage during extended dry periods. Project specifications should allow a curing period between initial and final mixing of the lime/soil mixture. After initial mixing, the lime treated subgrade should be lightly rolled and maintained at or to +4% of optimum moisture content until final mixing and compaction. We recommend a 2-day curing period for these soils. The following gradation requirements are recommended for the stabilized materials prior to final compaction: Minimum Passing 1/2" Sieve Minimum Passing No. 4 Sieve Percent 100 60 All nonslaking aggregates retained on the No. 4 sieve should be removed prior to testing.

Pavement areas should be graded at all t im es to prevent pondin g and infiltration of excessive moisture on or adjacent to the pavement areas. 7 .2 Pavement Sections Pav ement sections for the subdivi sion were developed based on the soil conditions encountered and The C ity of Fo rt Worth Pav ement Des ign Standards .

Rep ort No . 4900-06-3019 Page5 DO-5154 -Chrickering Road and Fairfax Street, Pavement Design, Fort Worth, Texas September 15, 2006 The pavement sections were developed using the WinP AS computer program which is based on the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures. The Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete (HMAC) sections should consist of a surface course similar to THD Type D with a base course similar to THO Type A or B. The coarse aggregate in the surface layer should be crushed I imestone rather than gravel. Concrete quality will be important in order to produce the desired flexural strength and long term durability. We recommend that the concrete have entrained air of 5 percent(+ 1 percent) with a maximum water cement ratio of 0.50. A 28-day compressive strength of 4,000 psi is recommended for all PCC pavements. Portland cement concrete pavement types for the streets can be either continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) or jointed reinforced concrete pavements (JRCP). Due to construction over swelling clays , un-reinforced pavement is not recommended. Jointed reinforced concrete pavements are typically used for high volume heavy traffic areas. CRCP will require more longitudinal reinforcing steel resulting in more initial construction costs. Either type of reinforced pavement should perform similarly in this area. Reinforcing steel and joint systems for either type of pavement should be properly designed . Where CRCP is utilized, the percentage of longitudinal steel is generally 0.5 to 0.6 percent of the concrete area. Transverse steel for CRCP is based on the subgrade drag theory: Ps = (LF / 2f,) x 100 Where Ps = Percent steel by area L = distance between free (untied) joints (feet) F = friction factor for subgrade (1.8 for lime stabilized subgrade) fs = allowable working stress in steel -psi (0.75 x yield point) Where JRCP is used, both the longitudinal and transverse steel required should be calculated by the subgrade drag equation . MACTEC Eng in eering and Consulting, Inc . Rep ort No. 4900-06-3019 Page6 DO-5154 -Chrickering Road and Fairfax Street, Pavem ent Des ign , Fort Worth , Texas Septemb er 15 , 2006 Proper joint placement and design is critical to pavement performance . Load transfer at all longitudinal joints and maintenance of water-tight joints should be accomplished by use of tie bars . Control joints should be sawed within 5 to 12 hours after placing concrete. Joints should also be properly cleaned and sealed as soon as possible to avoid infiltration of water, small gravel , etc. We have found that joint spacing on 12 to 15 foot centers have generally performed satisfactorily. Expansion joints should be on a 60-foot spacing and be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealant. Dowel bars should be 0.50 inch diameter smooth bars, 16 inches in length, and spaced at 12 inches on center. 7.3 Special Pavement Considerations We recommend all pavement subgrade areas be proofrolled after removal of existing pavement and base material. Proofrolling can generally be accomplished using a heavy (25 ton or greater total weight) pneumatic tired roller making several passes over the areas. Where soft or compressible zones are encountered, these areas should be removed to a firm subgrade . Wet or very moist surficial materials may need to be undercut and either dried or replaced with proper compaction or replaced with a material that can be properly compacted . Any resulting void areas should be backfilled to finished subgrade in 6 inch compacted lifts compacted to 95 percent of maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D 698. Achieving the required field density is dependent upon the adequate pulverization of the clay fill materials, the magnitude of compaction energy and the maintenance of field moisture near optimum. All joints and pavements should be inspected at regular intervals to ensure proper performance and to prevent crack propagation . The soils at the site are active and differential heave within the street area could potentially occur. The service I ife of paving may be reduced due to water infiltration into sub grade soils through heave induced cracks in the paving section. This will result in softening and loss of strength of the subgrade soils. A regular maintenance program to seal paving cracks and joints will help prolong the service life of paving.

Areas should be graded to prevent ponding adjacent to curbs or pavement edges. Curb areas should be backfilled as soon as practical after the concrete has set, preferably with the on-site clay soils . Backfill materials, which could hold water behind the curb , should not be permitted. Flat pavement grades should be avoided . 8.0 LIMITATIONS The professional services, which have been performed, the findings obtained, and the recommendations prepared were accomplished in accordance with currently accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices .
