They typically react with hydrated lime which serves to improve their support value at higher moisture levels and provides a firm, uniform subgrade beneath the paving. + It is recommended that six (6) percent hydrated lime by dry weight (27 pounds per square yard per 6-inch depth) to be used to stabilize the existing clay subgrade soils. The lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the highly active subgrade soil (TxDOT Item 260) and the mixture compacted to a minimum of 98 percent of maximum dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM D698, within 2 percentage points of the soil's optimum moisture content. We recommend that this lime stabilization extend 1 to 2 feet beyond exposed pavement edges, if possible, in order to reduce the effects of shrinkage during extended dry periods. After blue top stakes are set in preparation for grading the lime stabilized subgrade, depth the ks should be performed to verify that the specified depth of stabilization is present after fina grading of the stabilized subgrades. Sand should be specifically prohibited beneath pavement areas during final grading (after stabilization), since! these more porous soils can allow water inflow, resulting in heave and strength loss of subgrade soils. It should be specified that only lime-stabilized soil will be allowed for fine grading. After fine grading each area in preparation for paving, the subgrade surface should be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non- yielding subgrade. .� 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 within 5 percentage points above the soil's optimum moisture content until final mixing and corrlpaction. We recommend a 2 to 3 day curing period for these soils. The following gradation requirements are recommended for the stabilized materials prior to final compaction: ALLIANCE GEOTECHNICAL GROUP E06-1103 PAGE 1 Percent Minimum Passing 1 3/4" Sieve 100 Minimum Passing No. 4 Sieve 60 All non-slaking aggregates retained on the No. 4 sieve should be removed prior to testing. The prepared subgrade should be protected and moist cured or sealed with a bituminous material for a minimum of 7 days or until the pavement materials are placed. Pavement areas should be graded at all times to prevent ponding and infiltration of excessive moisture on or adjacent to the pavement areas. Due to the presence of expansive clay soils, some pavement movements should be anticipated. Inspection during construction is particularly important to insure proper construction procedures are followed. 2.0 RECOMPACTED PAVEMENT SUBGRADE If subgrade stabilization is not performed, the upper eight (8) inches of subgrade soil should be - compacted at-2%to+2 of optimum moisture for clay soils, The subgrade should be compacted to a minimum of 98% Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698). Only on-site soil (comparable to the underlying subgrade soil) should be used for fine grading the pavement areas. After fine grading, the subgrade should again be watered if needed and re-compacted in order to re-achieve the moisture and density levels discussed above and provide a tight non-yielding subgrade. Sand should not be allowed for use in fine grading the pavement areas as discussed previously. The subgrade moisture content and density must be maintained until paving is completed. The subgrade should be watered just prior to paving to assure concrete placement over a moist subgrade. — Due to the presence of expansive clay soils, some pavement movements should be anticipated. Inspection during construction is particularly important to insure proper construction procedures are followed. 3.0 DRIVE APPROACHES Water should not be allowed to pond in drive approaches prior to paving. Density tests should be performed on the subgrade soils in each drive approach prior to fine grading in preparation for paving to verify compliance with project specifications. ALLIANCE GEOTECHNICAL GROUP E06-1103 PAGE 2 i 4.0 PAVEMENT SECTIONS Tables 1 and 2 present the recommended pavement sections for this project: TABLE 1.

The concrete should have a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 3,000 psi. Concrete quality will be important in order to produce the desired flexural strength and long-term durability. ALLIANCE GEOTEC'HNICAL GROUP E06-1103 PAGE 3 Assuming a nominal maximum aggregate size of 1 to 1 3/8 inches, we recommend that the concrete have entrained air of 5 percent(t1%)with a maximum water cement ratio of 0.45. ` 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 as soon as possible after placing concrete and before shrinkage cracks occur. All joints including saw 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. It is our recommendation that the concrete pavement be reinforced with No. 3 bars on approximately 18-inch centers in each direction or equivalent reinforcing steel. In loading dock areas we recommend that the perimeter of the pavement area have a stiffening curb section to prevent possible distress due to heavy wheel loads near the edge of the pavement and also to provide channelized drainage. 4.1 RECYCLED ASPHALT BASE The existing pavement generally consists of four (4) inches of existing asphalt over a compacted subgrade (with no base and no lime stabilization). Twelve (12) inches of existing asphalt was present at Boring B-2 (this was probably a patched pavement area). Five (5) to six (6) inches of the existing asphalt may be used as a sub-base in lieu of a 6 ` inch lime stabilized subgrade beneath new pavement at this site. The existing asphalt should be pulverized until 100% passes the one inch (1") sieve. It should then be compacted at optimum to +2% above optimum to 95% ASTM D1557. Prior to placement of the pulverized asphalt, the upper 8 inches of the subgrade soil below this pulverized asphalt base should be compacted at -2% to +2% of optimum to 98% ASTM D698. 5.0 SPECIAL PAVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS it is recommended that provisions be made in the contract to provide for proofrolling in areas where the existing pavement will be removed. It is also recommended that an item be included for removal and replacement of soft materials that are identified by this procedure. Proof-rolling should be performed prior to any lime stabilization, prior to placement of any base or prior to re- compaction of the subgrade if lime stabilization is not performed. ALLIANCE GEOTECHNICAL GROUP E06-1103 PAGE 4 Proof-rolling 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 and/or replaced with proper compaction or replaced with a material, which 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 parking area could potentially occur. The service life of paving may be reduced due to water infiltration into subgrade 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 will help prolong the service life of paving. The life of the pavement can be increased with proper drainage. Areas should be graded to prevent ponding adjacent to curbs or pavement edges. Curb areas should be backfilled with the on-site clay soils compacted in 6" lifts to 95% ASTM D698. Backfill materials, which could hold water behind the curb, should not be permitted. Flat pavement grades should be avoided. 6.0 CRUSHED CONCRETE Base manufactured by Big City Crushed Concrete with a gradation meeting requirements of TxDOT Item 247, Type A, Grade 1, compacted at or above optimum moisture content to a minimum of 95% Modified Proctor density(ASTM D1557). (Contact Mason Brown for pricing and delivery at (972) 243-5820). Big City Crushed Concrete has a plant at Walnut Hill and Stemmons in Dallas. Crushed Chico limestone flex base from Bridgeport meeting these requirements may also be used as an equal alternative to crushed concrete.

EARTHWORK 02300 -2- PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.01 SITE PREPARATION: In general, "site preparation," as specified in Section 02200, shall be performed in advance of grading and earthwork operations and shall be completed over the entire area of earthwork operations. 3.02 TO SOIL A. The removal and storage of topsoil shall occur after site preparation is complete and before excavation and embankment construction begin. Likewise, topsoil will be replaced after excavation and embankment construction are complete. B. Removal: Topsoil shall be stripped to an average depth of six inches (6")from areas where excavation and embankment construction are planned. Topsoil may be obtained from greater depths if it is uncontaminated by the substratum and it is of good quality, in the opinion of the Architect/Engineer. C. Storage: Topsoil shall be stored in stockpiles conveniently located to areas that will later receive the topsoil. Stockpiles shall be out of the way of earthwork operations in locations approved by the Owner or Architect/Engineer. Stored topsoil shall be kept separate from other excavated materials and shall be protected from contamination by objectionable materials that would render it unsuitable. D. Timing: Topsoil will not be replaced (deposited)until construction activities are complete that would create undesirable conditions in the topsoil, such as overcompaction or contamination. Trenching for items such as electrical conduit and irrigation pressure lines must be complete before topsoil replacement may begin. D. Replacement: Topsoil will be deposited in a single layer or lift. It will be placed, processed, compacted, and graded to leave a finished layer of topsoil not less than five inches in depth.'Unless otherwise indicated,topsoil will be replaced over all areas of F' earthwork (including slopes), except where pavement is planned. F. Grading: Topsoil will be final graded to the elevations shown on the plans. Fine grading will be accomplished with a weighted spike harrow, weighted drag, tractor box blade, light maintainer, or other acceptable machinery. All particles of the finish grade shall be reduced to less than one inch in diameter or they shall be removed. All rocks of one inch or greater shall also be removed. Grading operations and equipment will be such that topsoil does not become overcompacted. Bulldozer blades and front-end loader buckets are not acceptable devices for topsoil grading operations. Final grading within five feet of constructed or installed elements shall be hand raked. G. Acceptability: Finished areas of topsoil are satisfactory if they are true to grade, true in plane, even in gradient(slope),uniform in surface texture, and of normal compaction. Areas of loose granular pockets or of overcompacted soils are not acceptable and will be reworked. Finished areas will promote surface drainage and will be ready for turfgrass planting. EARTHWORK 02300 -3- 3.03 UNCLASSIFIED EXCAVATION A. All excavated areas shall be maintained in a condition to assure proper drainage at all times, and ditches and sumps shall be constructed and maintained to avoid damage to the areas under construction. B. Surplus Material: l. Surplus excavation is that quantity of material that may be left over after the grading plan is executed, and all earthwork operations, including excavation, embankment construction,topsoil replacement, and final grading, are completed. Any other surplus material shall be disposed of as "waste" as specified in Section 02200. All such cost for removal shall be considered as incorporated into Earthwork costs C. Excavation in Rock: The use of explosives will not be permitted. Unless otherwise indicated on the plans, excavation in solid rock shall extend six inches(6") below required subgrade elevation for the entire width of the area under construction and shall be backfilled with suitable materials as indicated on the plans. 3.04 EARTH EMBANKMENT A. Earth embankment is defined as embankment composed of suitable materials removed in unclassified excavation and/or imported fill. The construction of embankment includes preparing the area on which fill is to be placed and the depositing, conditioning, and compaction of fill material. B. General: Except as otherwise required by the plans,all embankment shall be constructed in layers approximately parallel to the finished grade of the graded area, and each layer shall be so constructed as to provide a uniform slope as shown on the grading plan. Embankments shall be constructed to correspond to the general shape of the typical sections shown on the plans, and each section of the embankment shall correspond to the detailed section or slopes established by the drawings. After completion of the graded area, embankment shall be continuously maintained to its finished section and grade until the project is accepted. C. Preparation: Prior to placing any embankment,all preparatory operations will have been completed on the excavation sources and areas over which the embankment is to be placed. The subgrade shall be proof rolled to detect soft spots, which if exist, should be reworked. Proof rolling shall be performed using a heavy pneumatc tired roller, loaded dump truck, or similar piece of equipment weighing approximately twenty five (25)tons except as otherwise specified for tree protection and areas inaccessible to vehicular compactors. Stump holes or other small excavations in the limits of the embankments shall be backfilled with suitable material and thoroughly tamped by approved methods before commencing embankment construction. The surface of the ground,including plowed, loosened ground, or surfaces roughened by small washes or otherwise, shall be restored to approximately its original slope by blading or other methods, and, where indicated on the plans or required by the Owner,the ground surface, thus prepared, shall be compacted by sprinkling and rolling. EARTHWORK 02300 -4- .. D. Scarification: The surface of all areas and slopes over which fill is to be placed, other than rock, shall be scarified to a depth of approximately six (0)inches to provide a bond between the existing surface and the proposed embankment. Scarification shall be accomplished by plowing, discing, or other approved means. Prior to fill placement,the loosened material shall be adjusted to the proper moisture content and recompacted to the density specified herein for fill. E. Benching: Scarification is normally adequate for sloping surfaces. However, in certain cases where fill is to be placed against hillsides or existing embankment with slopes greater than 4:1,the Owner may direct the Contractor to key the fill material to the existing slopes by benching. A minimum of two feet(2') normal to the slope shall be removed and recompacted to insure that the new work is constructed on a firm foundation free of loose or disturbed material. F. Depositing: Fill material shall be placed in horizontal layers or lifts, evenly spread, not �. to exceed eight(8") inches in loose depth before conditioning and compaction. Unless otherwise permitted, each layer of fill material shall cover the length and width of the area to be filled and shall be conditioned and compacted before the next higher layer of fill is placed. Adequate drainage shall be maintained at all times. G. Watering: At the time of compaction,the moisture content of fill material shall be such that the specified compaction will be obtained, and the fill will be firm,hard, and unyielding. Fill material which contains excessive moisture shall not be compacted until it is dry enough to obtain the specified compaction. H. Compacting: Each layer of earth fill shall be compacted by approved tamping or sheepsfoot rollers, pneumatic tire rollers, or other mechanical means acceptable to the Owner. Hand-directed compaction equipment shall be used in areas inaccessible to vehicular compactors. I. Grading: Embankments shall be constructed in proper sequence and at proper densities for their respective functions. All embankment serves in one capacity or another as subgrade (e.g.,under topsoil,under concrete and asphalt pavement, under structures, etc.). Accordingly,the upper layer of embankment shall be graded to within plus or minus 0.10 foot of proper subgrade elevation prior to depositing topsoil, and prior to the construction of pavements, slabs, etc. 3.05 DENSITY CONTROL A. Earth Embankment in General: Earth embankment shall be compacted in lifts at a minimum of ninety percent(95%)of Standard Density ASTM D698 with plus four percent (4%) or minus two percent(2%)percentage points of optimum moisture content. B. Earth Embankment Under Structures and Pavement: The top six (6")inches of natural earth comprising the subgrade for structural slabs or for areas of pavement shall be ninety five percent (95%)to ninety eight percent(98%) of Standard Density ASTM. EARTHWORK y 02300 -5. D698 with the moisture content at minus two percent(2%)to plus four percent(4%) of optimum moisture content. 3.06 MOISTURE MAINTENANCE: The specified moisture content shall be maintained in all embankments that are to function as subgrade for structures, areas of pavement, or for select embankment. After completion of the embankment,the Contractor shall prevent excessive loss of moisture in the embankment by sprinkling as required. Loss of moisture in excess of two percent(2%) below optimum in the top twelve inches (12") of the fill will require that the top _ twelve inches (12") of the embankment be scarified,wetted, and recompacted prior to placement of the structure, select fill or pavement. If desired,the Contractor may place an asphalt membrane of emulsified or cutback asphalt over the completed embankment and thus eliminate the sprinkling requirement. 3.08 TOPSOIL REPLACEMENT: Topsoil shall be carefully placed to avoid any displacement or damage to the subgrade. If any of the subgrade is rutted,damaged or displaced it shall be restored prior to placing topsoil. Topsoil shall be replaced as specified herein per Item 3.02.
