GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING REPORT
1 INTRODUCTION
The proposed project is located approximately'/2 mile north of SH 114 and approximately 500
feet west of John Day Road in Denton County, Texas. The Liberty Trails Phase 2 will include the
development of approximately 28 acres of generally vacant land into approximately 137 single-
family residential lots, including associated utilities and paved streets.
Based on topographic information provided by the client, the site generally slopes downward from
the northwest to the southeast, with elevations ranging from approximately 768 feet to 754 feet.
Based on proposed grading plans, we understand that up to approximately 3.5 feet of cut and 5
feet of fill will be required to achieve final grades within the proposed building pads. At the time
of our field exploration, the site generally consisted of an open grass-covered field. Based on
grading plans provided to us, several retaining walls are planned at the site, with heights of up to
approximately 4 feet. Global stability analysis of these retaining walls is outside the scope of this
report; however, Rone would be pleased to provide a proposal for these services upon request.
A site vicinity map and geology map are attached as Plates A.1 and A.2, respectively. The general
location and orientation of the site are shown on the Boring Location Diagram, Plate A.3, in
Appendix A of this report.
2 PURPOSES AND SCOPE OF STUDY
The principal purposes of this study are to review available information on the general subsurface
conditions at the site and to develop geotechnical recommendations for the design and
construction of foundations and pavements for Phase 2 of the Liberty Trail residential community.
To accomplish its intended purposes, the study was conducted in the following phases:
Sample borings were drilled to evaluate the subsurface conditions at the boring locations, and
to obtain soil and rock samples;
Laboratory tests were conducted on selected samples recovered from the borings to estimate
the pertinent engineering characteristics of the foundation materials; and
Engineering analyses were performed using field and laboratory data to develop foundation
and pavement design recommendations.

3 FIELD OPERATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTING
Subsurface conditions for Phase 2 of the proposed development were determined with a total of
29 borings perFormed to the depths of approximately 5 to 15 feet below the existing ground surface
within the proposed subdivision. The borings were located in the field by Rone personnel using
an aerial photograph of the site and measuring from available site features. The latitude and
longitude of the boring locations were measured using a hand-held GPS unit. Ground surFace
elevations at the boring locations were interpolated from topographic information provided by the
client. The provided locations and elevations are accurate only to the extent implied by the
technique used in their determination. The approximate boring locations are shown on Plate A.3,
Boring Location Diagram. Sample depth, description of soils, and classification (based on the
Unified Soil Classification System) are presented on the respective Logs of Boring in the
appendix. Keys to terms and symbols used on the logs are also included in Appendix A.
Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected samples recovered from the borings to confirm
visual classification and determine the pertinent engineering properties of the soils encountered.
Classification test results are presented on the Logs of Boring.
4 GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS
4.1 Site Geology
Based on the subsurFace conditions encountered in the borings and the Geologic Atlas of Texas,
Dallas Sheet, the site appears to be located within the undivided Fort Worth Limestone and Duck
Creek Formation (mapped as Kfd). The USGS Mineral Resources On-Line Spatial Data
reference contains the following description of this formation:
The Fort Worth Limestone is generally light to medium gray, and weathers to a yellow brown. It
often contains marine fossils and is generally overlain by medium gray to yetlow-brown calcareous
clay. The Duck Creek formation generally consists of highly active residual clay underlain by
medium gray to yellow-gray limestone.
Please note that the geologic mapping was originally performed using aerial photography. Local
variations and anomalies do occur.

II�Iifi11111N�i
4.2 Subsurface Soil Conditions
The various strata encountered in the borings and their approximate depths and thickness are
shown on the Logs of Boring. The stratification boundaries shown on the Logs of Boring represent
the approximate locations of changes in types of soil and rock; in-situ, the transition between
material types may be gradual and indistinct. A brief summary of the stratigraphy indicated by
the borings is given below.
Based on the soil boring and laboratory data, the soils at this site generally consist of native fat clay
(CH), sandy lean clay (CL), sandy fat clay (CH), and clayey sand (SC) containing various amounts
of sand, gravel, calcareous nodules, ferrous nodules, and weathered limestone extending to depths
in the borings of approximately 2 to 11.5 feet below the existing ground surface. Underlying the
clays, the borings generally encountered tan weathered limestone and/or gray limestone to the
boring termination depths of approximately 5 to 15 feet. Practical auger refusal was encountered in
the gray limestone at a depth of approximately 5 feet in Boring B-207.
The plasticity index (PI) of the cohesive samples tested varied from 17 to 59, indicating low to
high soil plasticity. A high plasticity index is generally associated with an increased potential for
the active clayey soils to shrink and swell with changes in moisture content. In situ moisture levels
ranged from approximately 12 percent below to 6 percent above their measured plastic limits,
indicating a wide range of existing subgrade moisture conditions.
4.3 Groundwater
Free water was not encountered in borings during drilling or at drilling completion. The scope of
work did not include long-term observations of ground water or perched water conditions. In
addition, it is difficult to accurately predict the magnitude of subsurface water fluctuations that
might occur following periods of drought or rainfall. Groundwater can be encountered above any
of the less permeable soil or rock at this site, creating a temporary perched water condition,
particularly during wet periods of the year. Groundwater levels should be expected to fluctuate
throughout the year with variations in precipitation, runoff, the water levels in nearby surface water
features, and other factors not evident at the time of the field services.
These observations have been made during the course of the field exploration, as indicated on
the Logs of Boring. A groundwater study has not been performed. Long-term observations would
�II�x-��I�y/'iil�r,Ilhfd'ar:rr-,i?----- --- — � ��
RONE %
f I�Ii111I111N1i
be necessary to more accurately evaluate the groundwater levels and fluctuations. Rone would
be pleased to provide groundwater level monitoring as an additional scope of services, if desired,
5 ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Seismic Site Class
The site class for seismic design is based on several factors that include soil profile (soil or rock),
shear wave velocity, density, relative hardness, and strength, averaged over a depth of 100 feet.
The borings for this project did not extend to a depth of 100 feet; we have assumed the soil and
rock conditions below the termination depth of the borings to be similar to those encountered at
the termination depth of the borings. Based on Section 1613.3.2 of the 2018 International Building
Code and Table 20.3-1 of ASCE 7-10, we recommend using Site Class C(Stiff Soil/Soft Rock)
for seismic design.
5.2 Potential Vertical Rise
The estimated Potential Vertical Rise (PVR) using the TxDOT method, based on a 12-foot deep
active zone and the depth to weathered limestone, is estimated to range from less than 2 inches
to approximately 4 inches for subgrade soils in a dry moisture condition. Soil moisture levels do
not remain constant over time. If the soils in these areas are allowed to dry appreciably, prior to
and/or during construction, ground movements could exceed the estimated values when the soils
are subsequently given free access to water.
For this project, we recommend that foundations be designed based on a PVR of approximately
2 to 4 inches. Details regarding subgrade treatment are presented in Section 5.4 Foundation
Recommendations and Section 5.5 Subgrade Preparation.
5.3 Excavation Safety Considerations
Please note that in accordance with Texas State Law, the design and maintenance of excavation
safety systems is the sole responsibility of the contractor. Please reference Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA) Standards 29 CFR —1926 Subpart P for guidance in the design
of such systems. All excavations should be sloped, shored, or shielded in accordance with OSHA
requirements.

5.4 Foundation Recommendations
Based on the conditions encountered in the borings, the proposed site grading, and the
anticipated loading conditions, the proposed residences may be supported on slab foundations
bearing on tested and approved native soils, or moisture conditioned fill. Foundation design
recommendations are provided below.
The proposed residences may be supported on ground-supported foundations consisting of a
conventionally reinforced beam and slab system or a post-tensioned slab foundation system,
provided the estimated floor movements can be tolerated. Foundations should be designed with
exterior and interior grade beams adequate to provide sufficient rigidity to the foundation system
to sustain the vertical soil movements expected at this site.
A net allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 pounds per square foot (psf) may be used for
design of all grade beams bearing in native soils or select fill. Grade beams should bear at least
18 inches below final grade.
Relatively shallow weathered limestone was encountered in some of the borings at this site. If
weathered limestone is encountered in only a portion of the foundation excavation at the planned
bearing elevation, the excavation should be extended at least 12 inches into the weathered
limestone. The processed limestone should then be compacted back into the excavation up to
the bearing elevation. This will help reduce the "hinge" condition associated with the transition
from soil to rock.
The bottom of the beam trenches should be free of any loose or soft material prior to the
placement of the concrete. All grade beams and floor slabs should be adequately reinforced to
minimize cracking as normal movements occur in the foundation soils. Moist soil conditions should
be maintained beneath and at least 5 feet beyond slab foundations during their service life.
The Post-Tensioning Institute (PTI) parameters are calculated based on the method described in
the most recent edition of the PTI manual for designing slab-on-grade foundation systems.
Recommended PTI foundation design parameters for a PVR value of 2 and 4 inches and a
Thornthwaite Moisture Index (TMI) of minus five (-5) are as follows:

A moisture barrier should be used beneath slab foundations. The combination of wet conditions
and growth of mold and mildew can create a persistent slip hazard.
The PTI method incorporates numerous design assumptions associated with the derivation of
variables needed to estimate the soil design criteria. The PTI method of predicting differential soii
movement is applicable when soil moisture conditions are controlled solely by the climate on well-
graded building pads (i.e. proper drainage, no percolation of water in unlined landscaped areas,
no utility water leaks, or other free water sources). Soil moisture typically increases within the
subgrade beneath concrete slabs, particularly when the space above the floor slab is enclosed
and air-conditioned. As soil moisture increases, the soils may swell. The PTI design method is
intended to provide stiffened foundation systems that can perform well under typical natural
changes in soil moisture. The differential foundation movements resulting from seasonal soil
moisture content changes are typically much lower than movements that can occur due to free
water sources near or beneath the structure, which are not directly addressed by the PTI design
uL�i • •
5.5 Subgrade Preparation
When considering the various subgrade preparation options, it is important to keep in mind that
the subsurFace conditions which resulted in the estimated PVR values may not be uniformly
present beneath each structure. Some allowance for variable support should be incorporated into
the foundation designs for structures at this site. The preparation of a uniform pad beneath each
structure is a crucial aspect of site development. To help provide a uniform pad, the depth of fill
beneath an individual structure should be uniform within the building footprint, to the extent
possible.

5.6 Subgrade Fill
Over-excavation is not required to perform moisture conditioning; however, all fill placed within
the proposed building pads should be placed following the soil preparation and placement
procedures and requirements presented in this report. The controlled fill should extend at least
5 feet outside the perimeter of the proposed structures or other perimeter features sensitive to
differential movement.
Any deleterious materials or rock fragments greater than approximately 4 inches in diameter
encountered within the soils should be removed. The subgrade that will receive fill should be
scarified to a depth of 6 inches and compacted to 95 to 100 percent of the material's standard
Proctor dry density (ASTM D698) at the optimum moisture content up to 4 percent above optimum
(Opt +4). In order to achieve a more uniform soil moisture profile, the moisture treated fill should
be placed in maximum 10-inch loose lifts and compacted to a similar density and moisture content.
The fill placement in the building pad and pavement subgrades should be monitored and tested
on a full-time basis by Rone Engineering to confirm conditions are as anticipated and to confirm
the fill is suitable and placed with the proper moisture content and degree of compaction. Density
tests should be performed on each lift of reworked clay.
5.7 Pavement Design Recommendations
This report includes recommendations for rigid pavements. Maintenance requirements over the
life of rigid pavements are typically much lower than flexible pavements, and many consider the
long-term appearance of rigid pavements an advantage. Properly maintained flexible pavements
typically require regularly scheduled observation and repair, and the placement of an overlay
and/or other pavement rehabilitation during the design life should be assumed when designing a
flexible pavement. Rigid pavements tend to be more durable and require less maintenance after
construction, and rehabilitation/reconstruction of the pavement section is not typically considered
a part of the pavement life cycle.
5.7.1 General Discussion
Based on the subsurFace conditions encountered in our borings, the anticipated traffic loading
conditions, and our local experience, we recommend the proposed pavement consist of jointed

reinforced concrete pavement (JRCP) supported by lime-treated subgrade. Recommendations
for pavements and subgrade treatment are described in the following sections,
5.7.2 Subgrade Support
Laboratory test results published correlations with index soil properties, and experience with
similar materials were used to estimate a design California Bearing Ratio (CBR) value
approximately 3, which was correlated to a resilient modulus, MR, of approximately 4,100 psi.
This value correlates with, yet is slightly lower than, numerous resilient modulus values measured
in TxDOT projects performed in similar soil types in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
5.7.3 Pavement Thickness Determination
When designing pavement sections, subgrade conditions must be considered along with
expected traffic use/frequency, pavement type, and desired design life. Based on laboratory test
results and local design experience, the information in the following table was used in our analysis.
If actual traffic counts are available, we can recalculate the design sections based on actual traffic
values,

The pavement thickness determinations were performed in general accordance with the
"AASHTO Guide for the Design of Pavement Structures 1993 edition" using the WinPAS 12
software from ACPA. Based on the analyses, we recommend the foilowing pavement sections:
Table 3: Recommended Pavement Sections
IThickness (inches)
Material
Collector Streets Residential Streets
Jointed Reinforced Concrete � 8

The concrete pavement should have between 4 and 6 percent entrained air. We recommend
3,600 psi compressive strength concrete be used to provide a 530-psi modulus of rupture. Hand-
placed concrete should have a maximum slump of 6 inches. A sand leveling course should not
be permitted beneath pavements. All steel reinforcement, dowel spacing/diameter, and pavement
joints should conform to local municipal standards.
5.7.4 Pavement Subgrade Preparation
All topsoil, vegetation, and any unsuitable materials should be removed. The pavement subgrade
should be proofrolled with a fully loaded (40,000 Ibs.), tandem-axle dump truck or similar
pneumatic-tire equipment to locate areas of unsuitable subgrade. In areas to be cut, the proofroll
should be performed after the final grade is established. In areas to be filled, the proofroll should
be performed prior to placement of engineered fill and after subgrade construction is complete.
Areas of loose or soft subgrade encountered in the proofroll should be removed and replaced with
engineered fill, or moisture conditioned (dried or wetted, as needed) and compacted in place.
The existing soils are plastic and can undergo volume change when subjected to moisture
variations. If moisture levels in the upper soils decrease, they may shrink and cracks may
develop. If the moisture levels of these materials increase, they could swell and lose strength.
Shrinkage, swelling, or strength loss could be detrimental to the proper function of the pavement.
Lime treatment of clay subgrade is recommended for all concrete pavements to provide more
uniform subgrade support and improve these soil's strength characteristics.
I�II�r-i�i��/iiGr•ilK;l�lar:f:�-ii� — ---- � � , � i' '� i
I—� — -- --- �
R�N�,,,�;.,,��,�.,,;
Lime treatment shouid be performed in accordance with Item 260, current Standard Specifications
for Construction of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT). We recommend that the actual percentage of lime required be confirmed by collecting
soil sample(s) once pavement subgrade elevation is attained. A lime series should be performed
on the samples collected and the results should be used to determine the acfival percentage of
lime required. Lime treating the upper 6 inches of the subgrade soils will not significantly reduce
the normal shrinking and swelling of the subgrade that occurs with seasonal moisture variation,
Some vertical movements of the pavements should be expected.
Grading and compaction of pavement subgrade should follow the recommendations in Section
6 Site Preparation and Fill Placement below. The final grades should facilitate proper drainage
to reduce access of surface water to the subgrade materials.
Water can be introduced beneath the pavement through granular materials used for aggregate
bases and utility line embedment, and can cause differential movement in the pavement.
Aggregate base or a granular leveling course should not be used beneath pavements. To reduce
the risk of moisture access and possible swelling, consideration could be given to substituting
clay plugs for granular embedment material around all utilities at the edges of the pavement.
6 SITE PREPARATION AND FILL PLACEMENT
The following recommendations for site preparation and fill placement may contain elements that
do not appear to apply to the presently known conditions at the project site. These items have
been included based on our experience that unforeseen obstacles can be encountered, and
progress can be delayed while written guidance is prepared. While we cannot cover every
possible circumstance, we have attempted to address the most frequently occurring issues in this
report section.
6.1 General
All grade-supported slabs should be designed to accommodate anticipated potential movements
as presented in the "Potential Vertical Rise" section of this report.
---- ---- — � .
I�II�a=r�i��julr:.111-;G1���.rx-,i� .�' ,�����;
i
RC�N�1 1� li • fl I 1 1 I N li
Every attempt should be made to limit the extreme wetting or drying of the subsurface soils
because swelling and shrinkage of these soils will result. Standard construction practices of
providing good surface water drainage should be used. All grading should provide positive
drainage away from the paving and should prevent water from collecting near the edge of
pavements and structures. Also, ditches or swales should be provided to carry the run-off water
both during and after construction. Lawn areas should be watered moderately, without allowing
the clay soils to become too dry or too wet. Roof runoff should be collected by gutters and
downspouts, and should discharge away from the building or into storm drains.
Backfill for utility lines or along the perimeter beams should consist of site-excavated soil. If the
backfill is too dense or too dry, it will swell and a mound will form along the trench line. If the
backfill is too loose or too wet, it will settle and a depression will form along the trench line. Backfill
should be compacted as recommended in the "Site Preparation and Fill Placement" section of
this report.
If granular material is used for embedment in utility trenches, we recommend placing a clay plug
as a replacement for the granular embedment at the location where the city line is located, at the
location where the utility enters the structure, and at other connections. The intent is to prevent
free moisture from passing through the granular embedment and entering the soil beneath the
structure.
Root systems from trees and shrubs can draw a substantial amount of water from the clay soils
at this site, causing the clays to dry and shrink. This could cause settlement beneath grade-
supported slabs such as floors, walks, and paving. Trees and large bushes should be located a
distance equal to at least their anticipated mature height away from grade slabs.
6.2 Site Preparation
Preparation of the site for any future construction should include the removal and proper disposal
of any obstructions that would hinder construction. These obstructions include all abandoned
structures, foundations, debris, water wells, septic tanks, and loose material. It is the intent of
these recommendations to provide for the removal and disposal of all obstructions not specifically
provided for elsewhere by the plans and specifications.
�I!II�X-r�i��j uir:Jli��Gl�ri=«i? � � I
-------- - -- ----- �
RCaN E j
� It�li'lll l �INIi
In general, we recommend that all active utilities that wouid extend beneath the buildings, and are
not intended to provide service to the structure, be rerouted around the building footprint. Any
abandoned lines should be removed and disposed of properly. Ali abandoned utilities within the
buildings that are not removed represent a risk to future building performance; if the lines are
abandoned in place, they must be fully grouted and capped so that the pipes do not provide a
ready conduit for water.
Utility excavation and/or subgrade treatment may encounter shallow weathered limestone which
can be difficult to excavate. The selected contractor should have experience in construction and
excavation within this material. It should be noted that this study did not include evaluating the
eas.e or difficulty of excavation of the subsurface materials at this site. The contractor should use
his own experience in the area when forming conclusions regarding appropriate means and
methods to accomplish the planned construction.
All concrete, trees, stumps, brush, abandoned structures, roots, vegetation, rubbish and any other
undesirable matter should be 'removed and disposed of properly. It is the intent of these
recommendations to provide a loose surface with no features that would tend to prevent uniform
compaction by the equipment to be used.
All areas to be filled should be disced or bladed until uniform and free from large clods. Soils
should be brought to the proper moisture content and compacted as indicated in the Fill
Placement Criteria table below. Fill that will be 10 feet or deeper below final grades should be
compacted to 97 to 100 percent of its maximum dry density at a moisture content within the range
of 0 to 3 percent above optimum (ASTM D698).

6.3 Select Fill
While select fill is not required for this development, we anticipate that select fill may be used for
miscellaneous fill during construction. If select fill is used, it should consist of a clean, natural soil
meeting the criteria recommended above. The fill should have a moisture content within the
specified range, be placed in loose lifts less than 9 inches thick, and compacted as indicated.
Lime-treated, on-site soils may also be used as select fill, provided the PI of the treated material
meets the specifications for select fill. The quantity of lime needed to achieve the PI requirement
for select fill is not known. The actual percentage of lime should be determined once soils have
been stockpiled and sampled.
Crushed limestone or recycled concrete can also be used as select fill. The crushed limestone
or recycled concrete should meet the criteria listed in the Fill Placement Criteria table. The
material should have a moisture content within the specified range, be placed in loose lifts less
than 9 inches thick, and compacted as indicated in the table.
6.4 Moisture and Density Testing
Field moisture and density tests should be made by the geotechnical engineer or his
representative. Tests should be taken in each layer of the compacted material below the
disturbed surface. If the materials fail to meet the specified moisture andlor density, the course
should be reworl<ed as necessary to obtain the specified criteria.

RC�NE )
Ihli�t11111N1i
Proper moisture content and compaction must be maintained until placement of the overlying lift,
or construction of overlying flatwork. Failure to maintain the moisture content and compaction
could result in excessive soil movement that can have a detrimental effect on structures supported
on or above the fill. The contractor should provide some means to control the moisture content
and compaction (such as water hoses, water trucks, etc.). Maintaining subgrade moisture and
compaction is always critical, but will require extra effort during warm, windy, and/or sunny
conditions. Density and moisture testing is recommended to provide some indication that
adequate earthwork is being performed; however, the quality of the fill is the sole responsibility of
the contractor. Satisfactory testing is not a guarantee of the quality of the contractor's earthwork
operations.
6.5 Site Grading
Site grading operations should be performed in accordance with the recommendations provided
in this report. Grading plans and construction operations should strive to achieve positive
drainage around all sides of the proposed structures. Inadequate drainage around structures
supported on-grade will likely cause excessive vertical movement to occur.
6.6 Utility Backfill
If granular material is used for embedment in utility trenches, we recommend placing a clay plug,
as a replacement for the granular embedment, at the location where the city line is located, at the
location where the utility enters or passes beneath the pavement, and at other connections. The
intent is to prevent free moisture from passing through the granular embedment and entering the
soil beneath the pavement.
On-site clayey soils should be used as backfill. These materials should be placed in maximum
6-inch lifts and properly compacted to between 95 and 100 percent of the maximum dry density,
as determined by Standard Moisture Density Relation test (ASTM D698), and at a moisture
content of at least two percent (min +2%) above the soil's optimum moisture content. In instances
where utility lines are more than 10 feet deep, the backfill below 10 feet should be compacted to
100 percent of the maximum dry density, as determined by Standard Moisture Density Relation
test (ASTM D698), and at a moisture content of within two percent (-2 to +2%) of the soil's
optimum moisture content.

II�Ii�I11111N1i
Compacted clay fill will typically experience settlement on the order of 1 to 2 percent of the fill
thickness. This should be considered when designing utility lines beneath pavements, flatwork
or any structure.
6.7 Construction Observations
In any geotechnical study, the design recommendations are based on a limited amount of
information about the subsurface conditions. In the analysis, the geotechnical engineer must
assume the subsurface conditions at the site are similar to the conditions encountered in the
borings; however, during construction, anomalies in the subsurface conditions are often revealed.
The potential for the presence of varied geologic formations and significantly different support
conditions at this site, which could result in changes in our design recommendations, increases
the risk of damaging soil movements at this site. Therefore, it is recommended that Rone
Engineering Services, Ltd. be retained to observe earthwork and foundation construction, and
perform materials evaluation and testing during the construction phase of the project. This
enables the geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily available to
evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to
recommend alternative solutions to unanticipated conditions. Until these construction phase
services are performed by the project geotechnical engineer, the recommendations contained in
this report on such items as final foundation bearing elevations, final depth of undercut of
expansive soils for non-expansive earth fill pads, and other such subsurface-related
recommendations should be considered preliminary.
We recommend that construction phase observation and materials testing commence by the
project geotechnical engineer at the outset of the project. Experience has shown that the most
suitable method for procuring these services is for the owner to contract directly with the project
geotechnical engineer. This results in clear, direct lines of communication among the owner, the
owner's design engineers, and the geotechnical engineer.
7 STUDY CLOSURE
The analyses, conclusions, and recommendations contained in this report are based on site
conditions as they existed at the time of the field exploration and further on the assumption that
the exploratory borings are representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the site; that

is, the subsurface conditions everywhere are not significantly different from those disclosed by
the borings at the time they were completed. If during construction, different subsurface
conditions from those encountered in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in
excavations, we must be advised promptly so that we can review these changed conditions and
reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between
submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due
either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure
locations, structural loads, or finished grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed
and retained to review our study to determine the applicability of the conclusions and
recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time lapse.
Further, it is urged that Rone Engineering Services, Ltd. be retained to review those portions of
the plans and specifications for this particular project that pertain to earthwork and foundations
as a means to determine whether the plans and specifications are consistent with the
recommendations contained in this report. In addition, we are available to observe construction,
particularly the compaction of structural fill, backfill, and/or the construction of foundations as
recommended in the report, and such other field observations as might be necessary.
This study has been completed for the exclusive use of the client and their designated agents for
specific application to design of this project. We have used that degree of care and skill ordinarily
exercised under similar conditions by reputable members of our profession practicing in the same
or similar locality. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made or intended.

FIELD EXPLORATION
Subsurface conditions were evaluated with 26 borings performed to depths of approximately 20
feet below existing grades at the locations shown on the Boring Location Diagram, Plate A.3. The
borings were completed at locations staked in the field by Rone personnel. The borings were
advanced between sample intervals using continuous flight auger drilling procedures. The results
of each boring, including sample depth, description, and soil classification based on the Unified
Soil Classification System (USCS), are shown on the Logs of Boring. Keys to the symbols and
terms used on the Logs of Boring are presented in Appendix A.
Relatively undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained using a tube sampler at the
depths indicated on the Logs of Boring. The tube sampler consists of a nominal 3-inch diameter
steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for
rod connection. The tube is hydraulically pushed into the soil. The soil specimens were extruded
from the tube in the field, described, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, and
packaged to reduce moisture loss.
The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand
penetrometer. In this test, a'/-inch diameter piston is pushed into a relatively undisturbed sample
at a constant rate to a depth of approximately'/4 inch, and the piston penetration resistance is
recorded in tons per square foot (tsf) at the appropriate depth on the Logs of Boring. When the
capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the value is tabulated as 4.5+.
Samples of stiff and/or granular materials were obtained using split-barrel sampling procedures
in general accordance with ASTM D1586. In the split-barrel procedure, a disturbed sample is
obtained in a standard 2-inch OD split-barrel sampler driven 18 inches into the ground using a
140-pound hammer falling freely 30 inches. The number of blows for the last 12 inches of the 18-
inch penetration is recorded as the Standard Penetration Test resistance (N-value). The N-values
are recorded on the Logs of Boring at the depth of sampling. The samples were packaged and
returned to our laboratory for further examination and testing.
:
RUN�,,,�;�.,��,�„�,
Rock and rock-like materials encountered in the borings were evaluated with a modified version of
the Texas Cone Penetration (TCP) test. Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Test Method
Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3-inch diameter cone with a 170-pound hammer freely falling 24
inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. This method was modified
by using a 140-pound hammerfalling 30 inches, resulting in 350 foot-pounds of per blow. In relatively
soft materials, the penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-
inch increment is recorded at the respective test depth on the log of boring. In hard materials (rock
or rock-like), the penetrometer cone is driven 100 blows, and the resulting penetration distances are
recorded in inches for the first and second sets of 50 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows
is recorded at the respective testing depths on the Logs of Boring.
Groundwater observations during and at completion of drilling are shown on the Logs of Boring.
Upon completion of the borings, the boreholes were bacl<filled with auger cuttings to ground level.

LABORATORY TESTING
Laboratory tests were performed on selected samples recovered from the borings to evaluate the
engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered and to provide data for
developing engineering design parameters. The subsurface materials recovered during the field
exploration were described by an engineering geologist or senior staff member in the field and/or
the laboratory and were later refined based on results of the laboratory tests.
The samples were visually classified and described, in part, using the Unified Soil Classification
System (USCS). Visual classification of soils was confirmed for selected samples using index
property testing including natural moisture content, Atterberg limits, and gradation tests (percent
passing the No. 200 U.S. Standard Sieve). All testing was performed in general accordance with
applicable American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) procedures as follows:
Atterberg Limits I ASTM D4318
Percentage of Particles Passing the No. 200 Sieve I ASTM D1140
Moisture Content I ASTM D2216
Dry Unit Weight I ASTM D2167

The Geoprofessional Business Association (GBA)
has prepared this advisory to help you — assumedly
a client representative — interpret and apply this
geotechnical-engineering report as effectively as
possible. In that way, you can benefit from a lowered
exposure to problems associated with subsurface
conditions at project sites and development of
them that, for decades, have been a principal cause
of construction delays, cost overruns, claims,
and disputes. If you have questions or want more
information about any of the issues discussed herein,
contact your GBA-member geotechnical engineer.
Active engagement in GBA exposes geotechnical
engineers to a wide array of risk-confrontation
techniques that can be of genuine benefit for
everyone involved with a construction project.
Understand the Geotechnical-Engineering Services
Provided for this Report
Geotechnical-engineering services typically include the planning,
collection, interpretation, and analysis of exploratory data from
widely spaced borIngs and/or test pits. Field data are combined
with results from laboratory tests of soil and rock samples obtained
from field exploration (if applicable), observations made during site
reconnaissance, and l�istorical information to form one or more models
of the expected subsurface conditions beneath the site. Local geology
and alterations of the site surface and subsurface by previous and
proposed construction are also important considerations. Geotechnical
engineers apply their engineering training, experience, and judgment
to adapt the requirements of the prospective project to the subsurface
model(s). Estimates are made of the subsurface conditions that
will likely be exposed during construction as well as the expected
performance of foundations and other structures being planned and/or
affected by construction activities.
The culmination of these geotechnical-engineering services is typically a
geotechnical-engineering report providing the data obtained, a discussion
of the subsurface model(s), the engineering and geologic engineering
assessments and analyses made, and the recommendations developed
to satisfy the given requlrements of the project. These reports may be
tifled investigations, explorations, studies, assessments, or evaluations.
Reg�rdless of the tide used, the geotechnical-engineering report is an
engineering interpretation of the suUsurface conditions within the context
of the project and does not ►•epresent a close examination, systematic
inquiry, or thorough investigation of all site and subsurface conditions.
Geotechnical-Engineering Services are Performed
for Specific Purposes, Persons, and Projects,
and At Specific Times
Geoteclinical engineers structure their services to meet the specific
needs, go�ls, and risk management preferences of their clients. A
geotechnical-engineering study conducted for a given civil engineer
will not likely meet the needs of a civil-worlcs constructor or even a
different civil engineer, Because each geotechnical-englneering study
is unique, each geotechnical-engineering report is unique, prepared
solely for the client,
Lilcewise, geotechnical-engineering services are performed for a specific
project and purpose. For example, it is unlikely that a geotechnical-
engineering study for a refrigerated warehouse will be the same as
one prepared for a parking garage; and a few borings drilled during
a preliminary study to evaluate site feasibility will not be adequate to
develop geotechnical design recommendations for the project,
Do not rely on this report if your geotechnical engineer prepared it:
. for a different client;
• for a different project or purpose;
. for a different site (that may or may not include all or a portion of
the original site); or
. before important events occurred at the site or adjacent to it;
e.g., man-made events like construction or envi►•onmental
remediation, or natural events like floods, droughts, earthquakes,
or groundwater fluctuations.
Note, too, the reliability of a geotechnical-engineering report can
be af£ected by the passage of time, because of factors like changed
subsurface conditions; new or modified codes, standards, or
regulations; or new techniques or tools, lf yoii nre the lenst bit uncertnin
about the continued reliability of this report, contact your geotechnical
engineer before applying the recommendations in it. A minor amount
of additional testing or analysis after the passage of time — if any is
required at all — could prevent major problems.
Read this Report in Full
Costly problems have occurred because those relying on a geotechnical-
engineering report did not read the report in its entirety. Do not rely on
an executive summary. Do not read selective elements only. Read and
refer to the report in f«n.
You Need to Inform Your Geotechnical Engineer
About Change
Your geotechnical engineer considered unique, project-specific factors
when developing the scope of study behind this report and developing
the confirmation-dependent recommendations the report conveys.
Typical changes that could erode the reliability of this report include
those that affect;
. the site's size or shape;
. the elevatlon, configuration, location, orientation,
function or weight of the proposed structure and
the desired performance criteria;
. the composition of the design team; or
. project ownershlp,
As a general rule, ahvnys inform your geotechnical engineer of project
or site changes — even minor ones — and request an assessment of their
impact. 7hegeotechnicnl engineer who prepnred fhis report cnnnot nccept

Most of the "Findings" Related in This Report
Are Professional Opinions
Before construction Uegins, geotechnical engineers explore a site's
suUsurface using various sampling and testing procedures. Geotechnicnl
engineers cnn observe nctual subsurface conditiorts ortly nt those spec�c
locations svhere sampli��g and testing is perforn�ed. The datl derived from
that sampling and testing were reviewed Uy your geotechnical engineer,
who then applied professional judgement to form opinions about
subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual sitewide-subsurface
conditions may d(ffer — maybe significantly — from those indicated in
this report. Confront tliat rislc by retaining your geotechnical engineer
to serve on the design team through project completion to obtain
informed guidance quicldy, whenever needed,
This Report's Recommendations Are
Confirmation-Dependent
The recommendations included in this report — including any options or
alternTtives — are confirmation-dependent. In other words, they are not
final, because the geotechnical engineer who developed them relied heavily
on judgement and opinion to do so. Your geotechnical engineer can finalize
the recommendations only after ol�servliig nclual subsurface cortditions
exposed during construction. If through observation your geotechnical
engineer confirms that the condikions assumed to exist actually do exist,
the recommendations can be relied upon, assuming no other changes have
occurred, The geotechnical engineer rvho prepnred this report cnnnot assume
responsibiltty or linbility for confirmntion-dependent recommendntlons if yo[t
fQil to retain that engirieer to perfornt construction observation.
This Report Could Be Misinterpreted
Other design professionals' misinterpretation of geotechnical-
engineering reports has resulted in costly problems. Confront that risk
by having your geotechnical engineer serve as a continuing member of
the design team, to:
. confer with other design-team members;
. help develop specifications;
• review pertinent elements of other design professionals' plans and
specifications; and
be available whenever geotechnical-engineering guidance is needed.
You should also confront the risk of constructors misinterpreting this
report. Do so by retaining your geotechnical engineer to participate in
prebid and preconstruction conferences and to perform construction-
phase observations.
Give Constructors a Complete Report and Guidance
Some owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can shift
unanticipated-subsurface-conditions liability to constructors by limiting
the information they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent
the costly, contentious problems tliis practice has caused, include the
complete geotechnical-engineering report, along with any attachments
or appendices, wlth your contract documents, but be certai�i to tiote
conspicuously thnt you'ye incli+ded the mater�nl for tnforrnatlon purposes
only. To avoid misunderstanding, you may also want to note that
"informational purposes" means constructors have no rIght to rely on
the interpretations, opinions, conclasions, or recommendations in the
report, Be certain that constructors know they may learn about speclfic
project requirements, including options selected from the report, only
from the design drawings and specifications. Remind constructors
that they may perform their own studies if they want to, and be sure to
allotv enoitgit time to permit them to do so. Only then might you be in
a position to give constructors the information available to you, while
requiring them to at least share some of the financlal responsibilities
stemming from unanticipated conditions. Conducting prebid and
preconstruction conferences can also be valuable in this respect.
Read Responsibility Provisions Closely
Some client representatives, design professionals, and constructors do
not realize that geotechnical engineering is far less exact than other
engineering disciplines. This happens in part because soil and rocic on
project sites are typically heterogeneous and not manufactured materials
with well-defined engineering properties like steel and concrete. That
lack of understanding has nuctured unrealistic expectations that have
resulted in disappointments, delays, cost overruns, claims, and disputes,
To confront that risk, geotechnical engineers commonly include
explanatory provisions in their reports. Sometimes labeled "limitations;'
many of these provisions indicate where geotechnical engineers'
responsiUilities begin and end, to help others recognize thelr own
responsibilities and risks. Read tltese provisions closely. Aslc questions.
Your geotechnical engineer should respond fully and franldy.
Geoenvironmental Concerns Are Not Covered
The personnel, equipment, and techniques used to perform a�i
environmental study — e.g„ a"phase-one" or "phase-hvo" environmental
site assessment — differ significandy from those used to perform a
geotechnical-engineering study. For that reason, a geotechnical-engineering
report does not usually provide environmental findings, conclusions, or
recommendations; e.g., aUout the likelihood oFencountering underground
storage tanlcs or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated subs��rfnce
envirotmie��tnl proble�ns Hnve led to project farlures. If you have not
obtained your own environmental information about the project site,
aslc your geotechnical consultant for a recommendation on how to find
environmental risk-management guidance.
Obtain Professional Assistance to Deal with
Moisture Infiltration and Mold
While your geotechnical engineer may have addressed groundwater,
water infiltration, or similar issues in this report, the engineer's
services were not designed, conducted, or intended to prevent
migration of moislure — including water vapor — from the soil
through Uuilding slabs and walls and into the building interior, where
it can cause mold growth and material-performance deficiencies.
Accordingly, proper t»tplefnentntion of tl�e geotecl�nicnl engineer's
reco»�►netrdatiotts tivill � of itself be su.(fictent to prevent
nrotstftre ittfiltrntton. Co►:fro►it tbe risk of tnofsttire ittfiltrntlott Uy
including building-envelope or mold specialists on the design team.
Geoteclinicnl e►�gineers nre not Gttildi►tg-e�tvelope or inold specinlists.
