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 of 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 too underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the nonresident's principal place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or nonresident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A.

BORE AND TUNNELING OPERATIONS GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Utilities crossing under surfaced roads within the limits of highway right-of-way shall be placed by auger bore or tunnel method, unless otherwise specifically authorized by TxDOT. Bores or tunnels shall be placed at depths below the roadway structure which are sufficient for superimposed live `-� and dead loads and also prevent collapse of supporting soil between hole and roadway. Boring and tunneling operations shall extend outside of the front slope and clear zone of the highway. Bores Where material beneath pavement is sandy or unstable and will be subject to caving, the hole for the casing shall be bored and cased simultaneously and bored material removed through casing. Cutting face of auger or drill shall not project more than six (6) inches ahead of casing and no water shall be used in connection with drilling. Where material beneath pavement is stable and not subject to caving, and allowed by TxDOT, the hole for the casing may be bored first and casing inserted in the hole immediately after completion of boring. If allowed by TxDOT, water may be used in conjunction with boring. Bore Pit Location Pits excavated for boring or tunneling operations shall be located so that any possible sloughing of sides of pit will not endanger shoulders or pavements and so that barricades can be placed as specified in the TMUTCD. Bore pits should be located at least thirty feet from the edge of the nearest through traffic lane and not less than twenty feet from the edge of pavement on ramps. On low traffic roadways and frontage roads, bore pits should not be less than ten feet from the edge of pavement or five feet from face of curb_ Tunneling While hole is being tunneled, casing shall normally be jacked into place as operations progress. Working face of excavation shall not precede advancing end of casing by more than two and one half (21 12) feet unless otherwise allowed by TxDOT. Grouting All voids around casing shall be pressure grouted.

BACKFILL OF UTILITY TRENCHES DESCRIPTION This specification shall govern backfill of trenches, which have been opened for the removal, adjustment, or installation of utility lines within the limits of highway right-of-way. Except when permission is granted, compacted backfill will be used for utility installations. Backfill shall consist of compacted material obtained from suitable soil excavated from the trench, or from sources outside the highway right-of-way. Material shall be free of rock, lumps, or clods that will not break down under compaction. Backfill material shall be placed in the trench in layers not to exceed 6" in depth and compacted. Water shall be added as required to facilitate compaction. Compaction shall be done with rollers or mechanical tamps. Use of rollers will be allowed only when such use is not believed detrimental to any highway facility. The type of roller used must be acceptable to TxDOT. When rollers are used, mechanical tamps shall be used along the sides of trench to compact any backfill that cannot be reached with rollers. Compacting shall be continued until a backfill density is equal to that of the adjacent, undisturbed material. Where trenches lie within the limits of drainage ditches and channels, which are in solid rock, TxDOT may require 1' of concrete backfill, struck off flush with the top of rock. SITE CLEAN UP The Utility is responsible for site clean up at the end of each workday. Roadways adjacent to the utility construction site shall be kept free from debris, construction materials, and mud. At the end of each day, construction equipment and materials shall be moved as far from the roadway as feasible within the safety rules. If mudding of the roadway occurs at any time, the roadway shall be cleaned immediately. When the utility installation is complete, the right-of-way shall be reshaped to its original condition and the area reseeded or re -sodded to reduce erosion. Should settlement or erosion occur within one (1) year of the utility installation, TxDOT may specify prompt replacement at the utility's expense for bringing the construction site to a satisfactory condition. TxDOT will restore sites that are left at an unsatisfactory condition after notification has been sent to the utility. These sites will be restored to original condition. The utility shall fully reimburse all costs incurred by TxDOT for all repairs made by TxDOT. These costs include, but are not limited to matters of traffic safety, right of way contour, restoration and repairs to all highway structures: including, but not limited to roads, driveways, terrain, landscaping, fences, etc. REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT OF RIPRAP AND EARTH SLOPES Any existing riprap cut by trenching operations shall be replaced and surface of new riprap finished to match that of existing riprap. Concrete riprap shall contain not less than three (3) sacks of cement per cubic yard of concrete. Reinforcing steel shall conform to that of existing riprap. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR EROSION CONTROL '~ Special precautions should be taken during utility installations to avoid disturbing existing drainage courses. In addition, soil erosion should be held to a minimum and sediment from the construction site should be kept away from the roadway and drain inlets. During construction the roadbed and ditches shall be maintained in such condition to insure proper drainage at all times. Ditches and channels shall be maintained to avoid damage to the roadway. To avoid soil erosion, it is advised and encouraged that the Utility Contractor use all applicable means (i.e. silt Specifications for Utility Installations 8 Fort Worth District r-: em fences, hay bails, rock filter dams, etc.) to detour soil from eroding into roadway, ditches, and adjacent property.

This report conforms to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. Plate A.1, Plan of Borings, 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 recommendations have been interpreted as intended. 1.3 Report Format The text of the report is contained in Sections 1 through 7. All plates and large tables are contained in Appendix A. The alpha -numeric plate and table numbers identify the appendix in which they appear. Small tables of less than one page in length may appear in the body of the text and are numbered according to the section in which they occur. Report No. 839-07-02 1 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 0 Units used in the report are based on the English system and may include tons per square foot (tsf), kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds), kips per square foot (ksf), pounds per square foot (psf), pounds per cubic foot (pcf), and pounds per square inch (psi). 2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING 2.1 Field Exploration Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by seven (7) vertical soil borings. Borings B-1 through B-7 were drilled to depths of 10 feet below existing grades. The borings were drilled with truck mounted drilling equipment using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations shown on the Plans of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on Plates AA through A.10 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 steel 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 sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the r value is tabulated as 4.5+. 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 Report No. 839.07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 2 r r rock -like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for the first and second 50 blows, a total 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 i 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, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests were performed. Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs. The undrained shear strength of selected soil specimens were estimated in the laboratory with a Torvane shear test device. The undrained shear strength values determined with the Torvane device lbare presented in tsf on Plate A.11. Six 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 results of the triaxial tests are presented on Plates A.12 through A.17. Three swell tests were performed on specimens from selected samples of the clays. These tests were performed to help 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.18. 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 tests are presented on Plate A.19. Six 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. Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 3 Sulfate -induced heaving can cause detrimental volumetric changes to a lime modified subgrade. The result of the sulfate tests are presented on Plate A.20. The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM procedures, or generally accepted practice. 3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 3.1 Site Geologies According to the Dallas Sheet of the Geologic Atlas of Texas, the project site is geologically located in an undivided mapping unit which includes the Pawpaw Formation, Weno Limestone, and Denton Clay, of the Lower Cretaceous age. Given the results of the test borings, the project site appears to be dominated by the Weno Formation. The Weno Formation is approximately 70 feet thick and is composed of interbedded clays, shales, marls, and limestones. The Pawpaw Weno Denton formation typically weathers to form residual deposits of moderately to highly active plastic clay. 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 2 to 5 inches of asphalt surfacing. Concrete is present beneath the asphalt surface in Borings B-2, B-4, and B-6 and is 3 to 5 inches thick. Gravel base material is typically present beneath the pavement structures, except in Borings B-2 and B-6 and is 3 to 6 inches in thickness. No significant fills were noted within the borings. Natural soils consist of dark brown, brown, light brown, gray, and reddish brown silty clays, silty shaly clays, shaly clays and clays of moderate to high plasticity. Zones of abundant gravel were present within selected readies of the clays, particularly within Borings B-3 through B-5. In general, the interbedded characteristic of the soil/rock stratigraphy encountered in the borings is typical of the Weno formation. Tan limestone seams and layers up to 2 feet in thickness are Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 4 present within the clays below 3- to 8-foot depths in Borings B-3, B-5, and B-6. These clays had tested Liquid Limits (LL) ranging from 48 to 69 and Plasticity Indices (PI) ranging from 30 to 47 and are classified as CL and CH by the USCS. The various clays were generally stiff to hard (soil basis) in consistency, with pocket penetrometer readings of 1.75 to greater than 4.5 tsf. The clay r soils had tested dry unit weight values ranging from 94 to 111 pcf. ` Tan limestone units are present beneath the clays in Borings B-1, B-2, and B-7 at depths of 1 to 8 feet. The tan limestone contains clay layers and is hard to very hard (rock basis), with Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) values of 0.75 to 1 inch per 100 blows. Gray limestone is then present beneath the overburden clays in Boring B-5 and beneath the tan limestone in Boring B-7 at 6 to 7 feet below existing ground. The gray limestone is very hard (rock basis), with Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) values of 0.5 inch per 100 blows. r 3.3 Ground -Water Observations .. The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground -water seepage during drilling. Ground -water seepage was observed during drilling at a depth of 6 feet in Boring B- 7. A water level of 9 feet was measured in this boring at completion. Ground -water seepage was not encountered during drilling in the remaining borings and these borings were dry at completion of drilling operations. i 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 m evident at the time the borings were performed. Ground water can trap atop limestone layers, occur within tan limestone units, occur in joints in the clays, or via more permeable strata. 4.0PAVEMENT 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 Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 5 .. 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. 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 underlying the pavement, it is recommended that the r 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. r 4.1.2 Subgrade Preparation Anticipated subgrade materials generally consist of materials of high plasticity. These higher plasticity clays, those with a Plasticity Index (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 will r improve their subgrade characteristics to support area paving. r 4.2 Potential Vertical Movements Estimates of expansive movement potential have been estimated using TxDOT Test Method Tex r 124-E. Potential vertical movements on the order of 2 to 4 inches are estimated in most years, with the exception of Boring B-7, where less than one inch is expected. Movements in excess of these estimates 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 i 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 sulfate 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. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 6 Soluble sulfate levels in soils on the order of 2,000 parts -per -million (ppm) or less are usually of low concern and warrant only observation of the subgrade during the stabilization process. The soluble sulfate levels of the tested samples ranged from <100 to 133 ppm. Since the samples tested were below 2,000 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 4.4.1 Lime Stabilization Lime stabilization is recommended for all subgrade areas with highly plastic clays, typically with a PI of 20 or greater. Consideration can be given to substituting a flexible base material in lieu of lime stabilization on an equal basis. Prior to lime addition, the subgrade should be proofrolled with 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 stabilized subgrade 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 gravel and calcareous 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 soils. The amount of hydrated lime required to stabilize the subgrade should be on the order of 33 pounds per square yard based on a dry unit weight of 105 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 Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways, Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Report No. 839.07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 7 .. 4.4.2 Subgrade Preparation Considerations .. r Cuts can expose the limestone in selected areas. These limestones provide excellent support in an undisturbed condition; however, they are difficult to cut to finished grade and some fill is required. Pulverization and compaction equipment often break down the limestone to a material _ that also benefits from stabilization, although large rock fragments hamper conventional mixing r procedures. Depending on the required grades, it may be advisable to undercut such areas and place a material suitable for stabilization or to place a lime stabilized clay or flexible base. This can best be evaluated by an on -site inspection after grading is completed. r 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 allow drainage of r 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 removal of all surface vegetation and debris. Sand should be specifically prohibited beneath pavement areas, since these more porous soils 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 should be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non -yielding f subgrade. Surface drainage is critical to the performance of this pavement. Water should be allowed to exit the pavement surface quickly. This can be accomplished by maintaining at least 1 percent slope of the finished grades and discharging the water into drainage structures. All pavement construction should be performed in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 4.6. 4.5 Pavement Sections At the time of this investigation, site paving plans or vehicle traffic studies were not available. Pavement analyses were performed using methods outlined in the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993 Edition, published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. 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. Report No. 839-07-02 8 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 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): Subgrade Soils ........................................................

The following pavement section is suitable for the previously mentioned assumptions- Any deviation from these assumptions should be brought to our attention immediately in order to assess their impact on our recommendations. Pavement Section Street Classification Growth Factor Design ESAL _ Thickness Material in. 7.5 PCC 6 Lime Stabilized Subgrade Residential -Urban No 875,000 2 HMAC Type D (high -volume) Growth 6 HMAC Type B 6 Lime Stabilized Subgrade According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, the allowable drainage coefficient for rigid concrete slabs placed directly on a lime stabilized clay subgrade without a permeable base layer must be no greater than 0.7. For flexible pavements,the maximum allowable 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 Report No. 839-07-02 CMj ENGINEERING, INC 9 - 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 the 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 Highways, Streets and Bridges, 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 all 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. Hot Mix Asphaltic Concrete Surface Course: Item 340, Type D, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Hot Mix Asphaltic Concrete Base Course: Item 340, Type A or B, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Lime Stabilized Subgrade: Lime treatment for base course (road mix) - Item 260, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Flexible Base: Crushed Stone Flexible Base — Item 247, Type A, Grades 1 or 2, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction of Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Report No. 839-07-02 10 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 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 4 inches. 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. 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 backfill. The design engineer may refer to this specification directly in the contract r documents. Related requirements are found within the Special Technical Specification. 5.2 Utilities Unusual problems with caving soils or collapsing materials were not noted at the boring locations. Based on the exploration borings, major excavations will encounter limestone in major intact units. This limestone is generally very hard and will require heavy duty specialized equipment for excavation. In addition, overexcavation should be anticipated within the limestones. Overexcavation may result from large blocks or chunks breaking along either weathered or clay seams beyond the planned excavation. 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). Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 11 Trench excavations should be sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to OSHA 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 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, 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 between the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer. Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 12 u 7.0 REPORT CLOSURE The borings for this study were selected 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 delineating the interface between 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 should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of classifications for those portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soil 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 levels 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 i 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, conclusions 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 Report No. 839-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC IF91 d" 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 compaction 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 wetlands 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 ANA Consultants, L.L.C. for specific application to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in connection with the services i 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. Report No. 839-07-02 14 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC s in s m l� PLAN OF BORINGS C1Y1 JENGINEERING, INC.
