Pagc I o(I
SECTION 00 43 37
VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 �vas adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law provides
that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices
or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or
services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder
would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State which the
nonresidenYs principal place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident Uidders in order for your bid to meet specifications.
The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in
Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of ��tAt�_�icrebrB�ank;: , our principal place of business,
are required to be �°Io�iaz'G;'�` percent lower than resident bidders by State L.aw. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of �SiRt��Iereo[.Blenk= , our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. �

If the shop drawings, data or samples as submitted describe variations and show a
departure from the Contract requirements which City finds to be in the interest of
the City and to be so minor as not to involve a change in Contract Price or time for
performance, the City may return the reviewed drawings without noting an
exception.

3) Construct cuts with the low end blocked with undisturbed earth to prevent
erosion of hillsides.
4) Construct sediment traps at drainage structures in conjunction with other
erosion control measures as shown on the Drawings or as directed.
5) Where required, create a sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of
storage per acre drained, or equivalent control measures for drainage
locations that serve an area with 10 or more disturbed acres at 1 time, not
including offsite areas.
b. Excavation of Sediment and Debris
1) Remove sediment and debris when accumulation affects the performance of
the devices, after a rain, and when directed.
J. Sandbags for Erosion Control
1. Construct a berm or dam of sandbags that will intercept sediment-laden storm water
runoff from disturbed areas, create a retention pond, detain sediment and release
water in sheet flow.
2. Fill each bag with sand so that at least the top 6 inches of the bag is unfilled to
allow for proper tying of the open end.
3. Place the sandbags with their tied ends in the same direction.
21 4. Offset subsequent rows of sandbags 1/2 the length of the preceding row.
22 5. Place a single layer of sandbags downstream as a secondary debris trap.
23 6. Place additional sandbags as necessary or as directed for supplementary support to
24 berms or dams of sandbags or earth.

a. Consistency.
1) In general, the consistency of concrete mixtures shall be such that:
a) mortar shall cling to the coarse aggregate,
b) aggregate shall not segregate in concrete when it is transported to the
place of deposit,
c) concrete, when dropped directly from the discharge chute of the mixer,
shall flatten out at the center of the pile, but the edges of the pile shall
stand and not flow,
d) concrete and mortar shall show no free water when removed from the
mixer,
e) concrete shall slide and not flow into place when transported in metal
chutes at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal, and
� surface of the finished concrete shall be free from a surface film or
laitance.
2) When field conditions are such that additional moisture is needed for the
fnal concrete surface finishing operation, the required water shall be
applied to the surface by hand sprayer only and be held to a minimum
amount.
3) The concrete shall be workable, cohesive, possess satisfactory finishing
qualities and be of the stiffest consistency that can be placed and vibrated
into a homogeneous mass.
4) Excessive bleeding shall be avoided.
5) If the strength or consistency required for the class of concrete being
produced is not secured with the minimum cement specified or without
exceeding the maximum water/cement ratio, the CONTRACTOR may use,
or the City may require, an approved cement dispersing agent (water
reducer); or the CONTRACTOR shall furnish additional aggregates, or
aggregates with different characteristics, or the CONTRACTOR may use
additional cement in order to produce the required results.
6) The additional cement may be permitted as a temporary measure, until
aggregates are changed and designs checked with the different aggregates
or cement dispersing agent.
'7) The CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for the quality of the concrete
produced.
8) The City reserves the right to independently verify the quality of the
concrete through inspection of the batch plant, testing of the various
materials used in the concrete and by casting and testing concrete cylinders
or beams on the concrete actually incorporated in the pavement.
b. Standard Class.
1) Unless otherwise shown on the plans or detailed specifications, the standard
class for concrete paving for streets and alleys is shown in the following
table.

5. If remedial wark is necessary, and the inspector and the CONTRACTOR cannot
agree on the cause of the cracking, the City may hire an independent geotechnical
engineer to perform testing and analysis to determine the cause of the cracking.
The contractor will escrow 50% of the proposed costs of the geotechnical contract
with the City. The CONTRACTOR and the City shall use the services of a
geotechnical firm acceptable to both parties.
6. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the cracking is the
CONTRACTOR'S deficient material or workmanship, the remedial work will be
performed at the CONTRACTOR' S entire expense and the CONTRACTOR will
also reimburse the City for the balance of the cost of the geotechnical investigation
over and above the amount that has previously been escrowed. Remedial work in
this case shall be limited to removing and replacing the deficient work with new
material and workmanship that meets the requirements of the contract.
27 7. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the cracking is not
28 the CONTRACTOR'S deficient material or workmanship, the City will return the
29 escrowed funds to the CONTRACTOR. The Contractor, on request, will provide
30 the City an estimate of the costs of the necessary remedial work and/or additional

e. Use green coloring for ground identification as sanitary sewer pipe.
f. PVC meeting the rec�uire�nents of ASTM D1784, with a cell classification of
12454 or 12364
g. Deflection Design
1) Base pipe design on pipe stiffness, soil stiffness and load on the pipe.
2) Design pipe according to the Modified Iowa Formula as detailed by the
Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association in the Handbook of PVC Pipe, using the
following parameters:
a) Unit Weight of Fill (w) = 130 pounds per cubic foot
b) Live Load = AASHTO HS 20
c) Trench Depth = 12 feet minimum, or as indicated in Drawings
d) Maximum (E') = 1,000 max
e) Deflection Lag Factar (DL) = 1.0
� Bedding Factor constant (K) = 0.1
g) Mean radius of the pipe (r), inches, as indicated in Drawings
h) Marston's load per unit length (W), pounds per inch, calculate per
Drawings
i) FVC modulus of elasticity (E) = 400,000 psi
j) Moment of inertia of pipe wall per unit length, (I) = t3/12, (in4/in), per
pipe type and size
(1) Where (t) = pipe thickness, inches
k) Maximum Calculated Deflection = 5 percent
h. Pipe Flotation: If the pipe is buried in coinmon saturated soil (about 120 pounds
per cubic foot) with at least 1'/z pipe diameters of cover, pipe is generally not
subject to flotation. If shallower, check groundwater flotation potential.
Flotation will occur if:
Fb > �1P �- W�-f- Wd
Where: Fb = buoyant force, pound per foot
W� = empty pipe weight, pourid per foot
W�= weight of flooded soil, pound per foot
Wd = weight of dry soil, pound per foot
Values and formulas far the above variables can be obtained from the pipe
manufacturer and site speciiic soil conditions.
i. Verify trench depths after existing utilities are located.
j. Accommodate vertical aligmlzent changes required because of existing utility or
other conflicts by an appropriate change in pipe design depth.
k. In no case shall pipe be installed deeper than its design allows.
2. Minimum pipe stiffness of 46 psi at 5 percent deflection when test in accordance
with ASTM D2412.
3. Pipe markings
a. Meet the minimum requirements of ASTM D3034 and ASTM F679.
b. Minimum pipe markings shall be as foliows:
1) Manufacturer's Name or Trademark and production record
2) Nominal pipe size

Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENCINEeatNc, INc.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
This report presents the results of a geotechnical engineering study for total pavement
reconstruction of three residential streets in Fort Worth, Texas. The streets include Melody Street,
Tasman Street, and Kleinert Street. The new roadways are planned to match their current width
and alignment and will incorporate curb and gutters. The new roads will be approximately 1 foot
below existing road grade. This report conforms to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design
Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. Plate A.1 depicts the project vicinity and approximate locations
of exploration borings.
1.2 Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurface
conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered,
develop recommendations for the type or types of pavement subgrade preparation and
modification, provide pavement design guidelines, and provide earthwork recommendations.
To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted in the following phases: (1)
drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for
testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to determine pertinent engineering
properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field
and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction.
The design is currently in progress and the locations and/or elevations of the structure could
change. Once the final design is near completion (80-percent to 90-percent stage), it is
recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the construction
documents pertaining to the geotechnical recommendations, as a means to determine that our
recornmendations have been interpreted as intended.

per cubic foot (pc�, and pounds per square inch (psi).
2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING
2.1 Field Expioration
Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by three vertical soil borings. Borings B-1
through B-3 were drilled to a depth of 11 feet below existing grades. The borings were drilled with
truck mounted drilling equipment using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations
shown on the Plan of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on Plates A.4 through A.6
and keys to classifications and symbols used on the logs are provided on Plates A.2 and A.3.
Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin-walled
(Shelby) tube samplers at the locations shown on the logs of borings. The Shelby tube sampler
consists of a thin-walled steei tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a
ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the soil by the hydraulic pulldown
of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for
consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to limit loss of moisture.
The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand
penetrometer. in this test a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the relatively undisturbed
sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25 inch. The results of these tests, in tsf, are tabulated at
respective sampie depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the
value is tabulated as 4.5+.
Disturbed sampies of the noncohesive c�ranular or siiif ia har� cohesive inateiials v�e�e obtaine�
utilizing a nominal 2-inch O.D. split-barrel (split-spoon) sampler in conjunction with the Standard
Penetration Test (ASTM D 1586). This test employs a 140-pound hammer that drops a free fall
vertical distance of 30 inches, driving the split-spoon sampler into the material. The number of
blows required for 18 inches of penetration is recorded and the value for the last 12 inches, or the
penetration obtained from 50 blows, is reported as the Standard Penetration Value (N) at the
appropriate depth on ;he logs of borings.
Report No. 1395-09-01
CMJ ENGINEERWC, INC.

To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, a modified version of the
Texas Cone Penetration test was performed at selected locations. 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
blow. This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. This
results in 350 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. In relatively soft materials, the
penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is
tabulated at respective test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock or
rock-like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for
the first and second 50 blows, a totai of 100 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows is
recorded at the respective testing depths on the boring logs.
Ground-water observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the upper right
of the boring logs. Upon completion of the borings, the bore holes were backfilled with hydrated
bentonite chips and properly plugged at the surface with asphalt.
2.2 Laboratory Testing
Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the
borings. In addition to the classification tests (liquid limits, plastic limits, and percent passing the
No. 200 sieve), moisture content, hand penetrometer, and unit weight tests were performed.
Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content, and unit weight tests conducted for
this project are included on the boring logs.
Four triaxial shear tests were performed on specimens from selected samples to evaluate shear
strength properties of the subgrade soils. The triaxial shear tests included unconsolidated-
undrained (UU) tests. These tests were performed for CMJ Engineering, Inc. by ML Testing, LLC.
The resuits of the triaxial tests are �� ese� �te� o� Plates A.7 through A.10.
Two swell tests were performed on specimens from selected sampies of the clays. These tests
were performed to heip in evaluating the swell potential of soils in the area of the proposed
pavements. The results of the swell tests are presented on Plate A.11.

One Eades and Grim Lime Series test was performed on a selected sample to identify the
appropriate concentration of lime to add to soils for modification purposes. The results of the lime
series test are presented on Plate A.12.
Three soluble sulfate tests were conducted on selected soil samples recovered from the borings.
The sulfate testing was conducted to help identify sulfate-induced heaving potential of the soils.
Sulfate-induced heaving can cause detrimental volumetric changes to a lime modified subgrade.
The result of the sulfate tests are presented on Plates A.13.
The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM
procedures, or generally accepted practice.
3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
3.1 Site Geology
The Dallas Sheet of the Geologic Atlas of Texas indicates the site is located in an outcropping of
the Weno Formation of Lower Cretaceous Age. Clays are typically present at the surface
underlain by tan limestone. The parent bedrock consists of hard gray limestone to shaly limestone
with some interbedded calcareous shale. The formation typically weathers to form shallow
deposits of active clay at the surface. These clays often contain significant quantities of limestone
fragments. The Weno is underlain by the much weaker Denton Formation.
3.2 Soil Conditions
Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on
the boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings
are discussed below. Note that depths on the borings refer to the depth from the existing grade or
ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various
soil types are approximate.
Pavement is present at all the borings locations, consisting of 3 to 4 inches of asphaitic concrete
surfacing. Gravel base material is present beneath the asphalt with thicknesses ranging from 5 to
6 inches. Soils encountered consist of various tan, light brown, brown, reddish brown, and gray
silty clays, sandy clays, and shaly clays
Limestone fragments and calcareous nodules are

typically present within the soils. Tan, medium dense silty sand is present in Boring B-1 below a 3-
foot depth and may represent fill material.
The various clay soils had tested Liquid Limits (LL) ranging from 48 to 72 and Plasticity Indices (PI)
ranging from 30 to 46 and are classified as CL and CH by the USCS. The silty sands are classified
as SP to SM. The various clays were generally stiff to hard (soil basis) in consistency, with pocket
penetrometer readings of 2.5 to greater than 4.5 tsf. The soils had tested dry unit weight values
ranging from 92 to 110 pcf and moisture content values range from 4 to 28 percent.
Tan limestone is present directly beneath the clays in Boring B-2 at a depth of 10 feet. The tan
limestone in Boring B-2 is fractured and is soft to moderately hard (rock basis), with a Texas Cone
Penetrometer (THD) test value of 3%z inches of penetration for 100 hammer blows.
3.3 Ground-Water Observations
The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground-water seepage
during drilling. Ground water was not encountered during drilling in all borings. All borings were
also dry at completion of drilling operations.
Fluctuations of the ground-water level can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of
rainfall; site topography and runoff; hydraulic conductivity of soil strata; and other factors not
evident at the time the borings were performed. Ground water can trap atop limestone layers,
occur in joints or gravel seams in the clays or via more permeable strata.
4.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN
4.1 Pavement Subgrade Considerations
4.1.1 General
The performance of the pavement for this reconstruction project depends upon several factors
including: the characteristics of the supporting soil; the magnitude and frequency of wheel load
applications; the quality of construction materials; the contractor's placement and workmanship
abilities; and the desired period of design life. The success of the pavement subgrade is subgrade
soil strength and control of water. Adequate subgrade performance can be achieved by modifying
or stabilizing the existing soils used to construct the pavement subgrade.
Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENGINE�ttING, INC.
5
Pavement sections are susceptible to edge distress as edge support deteriorates over time.
Therefore, care must be taken to provide and maintain proper edge support. In conjunction with a
stabilized subgrade or flexible base course underiying the pavement, it is recommended that the
stabilized subgrade or flexible base extend a minimum of 12 inches beyond the surface course on
each side of the street. Maintenance should be provided when edge support deteriorates.
4.1.2 Subqrade Preparation Considerations
Anticipated subgrade materials are variable and may consist of moderately to highly plastic silty clays
or sandy clays. The higher plasticity clays, those with a PI of 20 or greater, are subject to loss in
support value with the moisture increases which occur beneath pavement sections. They react
with hydrated lime, which serves to improve and maintain their support value. Treatment of these
soils with hydrated lime wili improve their subgrade characteristics to support area paving.
In lieu of lime stabilization, consideration may be given to substituting a flexible base meeting TxDOT
Item 247, Type A, Grade 1 on an equal basis.
4.2 Potential Vertical Movements
Estimates of expansive movement potential have been estimated using TxDOT Test Method Tex
124-E. Movement potentiai is variable due to the variable soil materials encountered in the
borings. Estimated potential vertical movements in the area of Boring B-1 are on the order of 1
inch or less. Potential vertical movements on the order of 3 to 33/4 inches are estimated in the
areas of Borings B-2 and B-3 where deeper, higher plasticity clays are present. Movements in
excess of this estimate can occur if poor drainage, excessive water collection, leaking pipelines,
etc. occur. Any such excessive water conditions should be rectified as soon as possible. In order
to minimize rainwater infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future
upward movement of the pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement should be sealed
on a routine basis after construction.
4.3 Sulfate-Induced Heaving
Soluble suifate testing was conducted to check for sulfate-induced heaving potential. Sulfate-
induced heaving is caused when hydrated lime is added to a soil with high sulfate concentration.
The lime reacts with the sulfates to cause potentially large volumetric changes in the soil. Portland
cement also produces lime as a byproduct of hydration, and therefore also reacts with sulfates.
Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENGINECRtNG, INC.
6
Soluble sulfate levels in soils on the order of 1,000 parts-per-million (ppm) or less are usually of low
concern and warrant oniy observation of the subgrade during the stabilization process. The
solubie sulfate levels of the tested samples are less than 100 ppm. Since the sampies tested were
below 1,000 ppm, a single treatment process is recommended. The single treatment is described
in Section 4.4. In addition, it is recommended that during the curing period of the lime treatment,
the subgrade be supplied with ample moisture to allow proper hydration, and it should be checked
for any volumetric changes that may indicate a sulfate-induced heaving condition.
4.4 Pavement Subgrade Preparation
Lime stabilization is recommended for ali subgrade areas with plastic clays, typically with Plasticity
Indices greater than 20. Prior to lime addition, the subgrade should be proofrolled wifh heavy
pneumatic equipment. Any soft or pumping areas should be undercut to a firm subgrade and
properly backfilled as described in the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual,
2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS).
According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special
Technical Specification, STS-003 Earthwork, Section 3.07, the pavement subgrade (stabilized or
unstabilized as discussed above), should be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches and
uniformly compacted to a minimum of 100 percent of Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698),
between minus 2 to plus 3 percentage points of the optimum moisture content determined by that
test. It should then be protected and maintained in a moist condition until the pavement is placed.
The presence of limestone fragments and caicareous nodules in the surficial soils can complicate
mixing of the soil and lime.
It is recommended a minimum of 7 percent hydrated lime be used to stabilize the clay subgrade
soiis. T�e amount af hydrated lime re�uired to stabilize the subgrade should be on the order of 32
pounds per square yard based on a dry unit weight of 100 pcf for a 6-inch depth. The hydrated
lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the upper 6 inches of the clay subgrade (TxDOT
Item 260). The hydrated lime should meet the requirements of Item 260 (Type A) in the Texas
Departrnent of Transportation (TxDOT) Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways,
Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition.
Report No. 1395-09-01
CMJ ENGINEE[tiNG, INC.

It is recommended that subgrade stabilization extend to at least one foot beyond pavement edges
to aid in reducing pavement movements and cracking along the curb line due to seasonal moisture
variations after construction. Each construction area should be shaped to ailow drainage of
surface water during earthwork operations, and surface water should be pumped immediately from
each construction area after each rain and a firm subgrade condition maintained. Water should not
be allowed to pond in order to prevent percolation and subgrade softening, and subgrade
treatments should be added to the subgrade after removai of all surface vegetation and debris.
Sand should be specifically prohibited beneath pavement areas, since these more porous soiis can
allow water inflow, resulting in heave and strength loss of subgrade soils (lime stabilized soil will be
allowed for fine grading). After fine grading each area in preparation for paving, the subgrade
surface shouid be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non-yielding
subgrade.
Surface drainage is critical to the performance of this pavement. Water should be allowed to exit
the pavement surface quickly. All pavement construction should be performed in accordance with
the procedures provided in Section 4.6.
4.5 Pavement Sections
4.5.1 Desiqn Methodology
Pavement analyses were performed using methods outlined in the AASHTO Guide for Desiqn of
Pavement Structures, 1993 Edition, published by the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials and the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005
Edition. The design equations were solved using AASHTO Pavement Analysis Software. In the
AASHTO method, traffic loads are expressed in Equivalent 18-kip Single Axle Loads (ESAL) over
the design life of the pavement structure.
4.5.2 Melodv, Tasman, and Kleinert Streets
Based on the results of the field and laboratory investigation and on soil plasticity properties, the
following design parameters were used in our thickness design calculations for the proposed
streets (soil parameters were conservatively established for the soils that are expected to exhibit
lower bearing strengths):

The following rigid and flexible pavement sections are provided for Residenfial — Urban (high
volume) street classifications. Detailed pavement design calculations and assumptions are
presented on Plates B.1 and B.2. The design ESALS were provided in the City of Fort Worth
Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. The following pavement section is suitable for
the previously mentioned assurnptions. Any deviation from these assumptions should be brought
to our attention immediately in order to assess their impact on our recommendations.
According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, the
aliowable drainage coefficient for rigid concrete slabs placed directiy on an untreated clay
subgrade or a lime stabilized clay subgrade without a permeable base layer must be no greater
than 0.7. Under the same parameters for flexible pavements, the maximum allowabie drainage
coefficient for modifying base and sub-base structural layer coefficients without a permeable base
layer connected to an edge drain system is equal to 0.4. In addition, a reduction factor must be
applied in the calculation for the subgrade resilient modulus for flexible pavements equal to 80
percent of the calculated raw subgrade CBR value. The above requirements directly affect
pavement thickness calculations.

4.6 Pavement Material Requirements
Material and process specifications are required to be in accordance with the City of Fort Worth
Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification. These
specifications generally include the following references to TxDOT Standard Specifications for
Construction of Hiqhways, Streets and Bridqes, 2004 Edition.
Reinforced Portland Cement Concrete: Reinforced Portland cement concrete pavement should
consist of Portland cement concrete having a 28-day compressive strength of at least 3,500 psi.
The mix should be designed in accordance with Item 360, Texas Department of Transportation
Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges,
2004 Edition using 3 to 6 percent air entrainment. The pavement should be adequately reinforced
with temperature steel and ali pavement joints should be placed and constructed in accordance
with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Section 4.5.4.

4.7 General Pavement Considerations
The design of the pavement drainage and grading should consider the potential for differential
ground movement due to future soil swelling of up to 3'/2 inches. In order to minimize rainwater
infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the
Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENG►NEERING, INC.
10
pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement shouid be sealed on a routine basis after
construction.
Proper surface drainage in the shoulders is also critical to long term performance of the pavement.
Water allowed to pond adjacent to the pavement will result in loss of edge and subgrade support and
an increase in post construction heave of the pavement.
5.0 EARTHWORK
5.1 City of Fort Worth Required Specifications
The City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical
Specification (STS) covers the requirements for general earthwork, undercutting excavation and
backfill for unstable subgrades for City Streets including excavation, compacted earth fill, flowable
fill, and trench backfili. The design engineer may refer to this specification directly in the contract
documents. Related requirements are found within the Special Technical Specification.
5.2 Utilities
Care should be taken that utility cuts are not left open for extended periods, and that the cuts are
properly backfilled. Backfilling should be accomplished with properly compacted impermeable
soils, rather than granular materials in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design
Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS).
Trench excavations should be sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to
OSNA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910), Subpart P, regarding trench excavations
greater than 5 feet in depth.
5.3 Erosion and Sediment Control
All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and
all permanent slopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with
permanent erosion and sediment control facilities. All applicable ordinances and codes regarding
erosion and sediment control should be followed.

6.0 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS
In any geotechnical investigation, 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 are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings.
However, quite often during construction anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed.
Therefore, it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to observe earthwork and
foundation installation and perform materials evaluation during the construction phase of the
project. This enables the geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily
availabie 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,
proper soil moisture condition, and other such subsurface related recommendations should be
considered as preliminary.
it is proposed 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 or the owner's design engineers to contract
directly with the project geotechnical engineer. This results in a clear, direct line of communication
beiween the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer.
7.0 REPORT CLOSURE
The borings for this study were se►ected by CMJ Engineering, Inc. The locations and elevations of
the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used in their
determination. The boring logs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soil
encountered at specific locations and times and show lines deiineating the interFace petween these
materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are
believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these
boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests
were also performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests,
along with visual-manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it
shoUid be understood that th� classification data on tfie logs of borings represert visual estimates
of classifications for those portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soii
Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENGINECR[NG, INC.
12
classification tests were not performed. It is not implied that these logs are representative of
subsurface conditions at other locations and times.
With regard to ground-water conditions, this report presents data on ground-water leveis as they
were observed during the course of the field work. in particular, water level readings have been
made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the report and on the
boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground-water table can occur
with passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature and other factors. Also, this report
does not include quantitative information on rates of flow of ground water into excavations, on
pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering
excavations. Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and
cannot be fully predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected
conditions frequently require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly
designed and constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is
recommended to accommodate such potential extra cost.
The analyses, conciusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site
conditions as they existed at the time of our field investigation 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 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 finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review
our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the
changed conditions and/or time lapse.
Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. 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
Report No. 1395-09-01 CMJ ENGtNEettwG, INC.
13
cornpaction of structural fill, or backfill and the construction of foundations as recommended in the
report, and such other field observations as might be necessary.
The scope of our services did not include any environmental assessment or investigation for the
presence or absence of wetiands or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, surface water, ground
water or air, on or below or around the site.
This report has been prepared for use in developing an overall design concept. Paragraphs,
statements, test results, boring logs, diagrams, etc. should not be taken out of context, nor utilized
without a knowledge and awareness of their intent within the overall concept of this report. The
reproduction of this report, or any part thereof, supplied to persons other than the owner, should
indicate that this study was made for design purposes only and that verification of the subsurface
conditions for purposes of determining difficulty of excavation, trafficability, etc. are responsibilities
of the contractor.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Fiowers & Leist, Inc. for specific application
to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in connection with the services provided is
that 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 other warranty,
expressed or implied, is made or intended.
