1. “Or-Equal” Items: If in City’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by
Contractor is functionally equal to that named and sufficiently similar so that no change in
related Work will be required, it may be considered by City as an “or-equal” item, in which
case review and approval of the proposed item may, in City’s sole discretion, be

2) it will conform substantially to the detailed requirements of the item named in the
Contract Documents.
2. Substitute Items:
a. If in City’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by Contractor does
not qualify as an “or-equal” item under Paragraph 5.05.A.1, it may be submitted as a
proposed substitute item.
b. Contractor shall submit sufficient information as provided below to allow City to
determine if the item of material or equipment proposed is essentially equivalent to that
named and an acceptable substitute therefor. Requests for review of proposed substitute
items of material or equipment will not be accepted by City from anyone other than
Contractor.
c. Contractor shall make written application to City for review of a proposed substitute item
of material or equipment that Contractor seeks to furnish or use. The application shall

indirectly from use of such substitute item, including costs of redesign and Damage
Claims of other contractors affected by any resulting change.
B. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a specific means, method, technique,
sequence, or procedure of construction is expressly required by the Contract Documents,
Contractor may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure
of construction approved by City. Contractor shall submit sufficient information to allow City, in
City’s sole discretion, to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly
called for by the Contract Documents. Contractor shall make written application to City for
review in the same manner as those provided in Paragraph 5.05.A.2.
C. City’s Evaluation: City will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each
proposal or submittal made pursuant to Paragraphs 5.05.A and 5.05.B. City may require
Contractor to furnish additional data about the proposed substitute. City will be the sole judge of

due any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity except as may otherwise
be required by Laws and Regulations.
C. Contractor shall be solely responsible for scheduling and coordinating the Work of
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities performing or furnishing any of the

REVISED GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING STUDY
5050 AZLE AVE
FT. WORTH, TX
INTRODUCTION
Authorization and Scope
Mr. Ryan Voorhees with Gold Creek Homes & Development, LLC. authorized our services
by and through issuance of Authorization Letter. The purposes of this study were to
determine and evaluate the stratification and engineering properties of the site subsurface
soils and to develop geotechnical engineering recommendations and guidelines for use in
site preparation, foundation design, building pads, and related site improvements planned for
5050 Azle Ave, Ft. Worth, Texas. The report was revised to include pavement design
parameters.
Project Description
Based on information provided, we understand the project involves design and construction
of the proposed total of 12 buildings, 1 club house and 1 maintenance buildings for 5050
Azle Ave, Ft. Worth, Texas. The wood frame, one to three-story buildings will be supported
by slab-on-grade, post tension or spread footing foundation.
FIELD AND LABORATORY TESTING
Field Testing
The site soils were supposed to be explored by thirty six (36) 15-feet deep borings. Boring
locations were determined in the field. Soil was sampled continuously at 2 foot intervals to
10 foot depth with an additional sample taken at 5 foot depth intervals. The sampling
method is determined based on the anticipated soils. ASTM defines soil as either fine-
grained or coarse-grained with the percentage of soil particles finer than the No. 200 sieve
used to differentiate between fine-grained and coarse-grained soil.
Granular soils were sampled as part of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) by driving a 2
inch diameter split-barrel sampler. The sampler was driven 18 inches by a 140 pound
hammer falling 30 inches in general accordance with the ASTM D 1586. Our representative
recorded the number of blows required to drive the sampler through three consecutive 6 inch
intervals. As permitted by ASTM D 1586, sampling was terminated if 50 blows were
recorded within any one 6 inch interval. The sum of blows required to penetrate the final 12
inches is known as the SPT “N” value.
Cohesive soils were sampled by hydraulically pushing a 3 inch diameter, thin-walled steel
tube a distance of about 24 inches. Our field sampling procedures were in general
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 2
accordance with ASTM D 1587. For each recovered sample, our representative extruded the
sample in the field, visually classified the soil, and measured the penetration resistance using
a pocket penetrometer. A portion of the recovered sample was wrapped in aluminum foil
and placed into a plastic bag and transported to our laboratory for testing.
Laboratory Testing
The soil samples were examined and visually classified by the samples representative of the
various soil strata encountered were selected for laboratory testing. Atterberg limits,
moisture contents and percent fines tests were performed to assist in classifying the soils
according to Unified Soil Classification System (ASTM D 2487). The classification test
results are presented on the boring logs. The test procedures are described in the Appendix.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The test borings encountered clayey sand (SC) and fat and lean clay (CH/CL) soils to boring
termination depths. Layers of gravel (GC) soils were encountered in borings B-1, B-17, B-
19, B-20, B-26 and B-29. The site soil has been evaluated by performing various field and
laboratory tests on the subsurface samples recovered during the drilling operations. The
types of tests conducted on the subsurface samples and the results of the tests are tabulated
on the Logs of Borings, which are provided in the Appendix. Field tests and laboratory
testing program were directed towards evaluating the plasticity index and moisture content
of the subsurface strata for this project. The properties of each stratum are discussed below.
The corresponding log of boring, depicting the stratum soil descriptions, type of sampling
used during sample retrieval, laboratory test data, and other field data, is presented in the
Appendix at the end of this report. The KEY TO BORING LOG SYMBOLS AND SOIL
CLASSIFICATIONS Sheet, which defines the terms and descriptive symbols used on each
boring log, is also presented in the Appendix.
Groundwater
Groundwater was encountered in some of the borings during our drilling operations. It is
noted that groundwater levels fluctuate with seasonal climatic variations. Here below is the
depth of water encountered in the borings:
B-1 B-3 B-5 B-6 B-9 B-10 B-17 B-18 B-20 B-24
6’ 13’ 8’ 8’ 6’ 5’ 8’ 6’ 4.5’ 13’
B-26 B-30 B-31 B-32
6’ 8’ 14.5’ 8’
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 3
EVALUATION
Based on the laboratory tests performed, the soils encountered at this site generally exhibit
medium to high potential for expansion that are ever changing as the moisture changes,
these clays will undergo volumetric changes as the moisture content increases or decreases,
if free to expand, or generate upward pressures, if not restrained by vertical loads.
Based on the results of our field and laboratory testing, the clay strata underlying this site are
hard materials that are competent to support the loadings from the structure with necessary
site preparation and compaction.
Tabulated in the following table are the amount of soil required to remove from the subgrade
to lower the PVR value to less than 1 inch. The surcharge is the overburden added to raise
the grade by select fill soils.

buildings should be based on considerations of several factors, such as: 1) function of the
structure, 2) soil strength properties, expansive soil properties, and settlement characteristics
of subsurface materials; 3) the magnitude of applied structural loads; and 4) construction
costs.
Site Preparation
Site preparation should consist initially, (a) clearing and the stripping of any vegetation and
roots, and (b) any materials containing significant organic material from the foundation
footprints. Soils having more than ten percent (10%) by volume are considered having
organic material. The exposed subgrade surfaces (c) should then be proof rolled with a
loaded heavy earthwork piece of machinery such as a motorized articulated scraper,
maintainer or dump truck to detect soft or loose zones, followed by proper soil replacement
if necessary and then (d) scarified to at least nine (9) inches; moisture conditioned within 2%
wet of optimum moisture and compacted to a minimum of 95% of maximum dry density
determined by ASTM D-698 (Standard Proctor).
If site soils are to be used for site earthwork mass grading, it is recommended that a TSI
representative be on site to assist in the earthwork operations to best determine and identify
all CH fat clays that should be separated and stockpiled for future use or disposal. When
properly tested and mixed with the low PI site soils, the fat Clay soils (CH) can be used as a
final fill material in areas that are to be landscaped. Other uses for the CH soils can be the
final fill top seal layer around the perimeter of the foundations to help keep surface water
and runoff from entering the foundation supporting soils.
Selection and Placement of Fill
Structural fill should be low plasticity sandy clays or imported caliche sand and gravel.
Recommended fill specifications are included in the appendix and these may be used as a
guide for the placement of fill and for pavement construction. Particular attention should be
given to maintaining the proper moisture content during compaction and to preventing the
fill from drying before subsequent lifts are placed.
Construction areas should be stripped of vegetation and root structure, and the exposed
subgrade should be proof rolled with appropriate construction equipment weighing at least
20 tons. The purpose of this recommendation is to check the subgrade for weak or soft areas
prior to fill placement and compaction. This operation should be observed and evaluated by
qualified geotechnical personnel experienced in earthwork operations.
If weak or soft areas are observed during proof rolling operations, the soil in the subject area
should be removed to expose competent subgrade soils in both horizontal and vertical limits.
The excavated soils, provided they are not contaminated with deleterious materials, or clean
imported fill soils can be used to restore grade at these isolated areas; any imported fill
should meet the requirements for select fill. Placement and compaction of the soils are
discussed below.
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 6
Select fill within paving areas should consist of lean clay or sandy lean clay, fre e of roots,
organics, and deleterious materials. The select fill should have at least 50% passing the No.
200 sieve and have a PI between 8 and 18. Representative samples of the fill materials
should be tested to confirm their material characteristics prior to the filling operations.
Subgrade areas should be scarified to a depth of about nine (9) inches and moisture adjusted
within 2% of the optimum moisture content. The moisture-conditioned subgrade should then
be compacted to at least 95% of maximum dry density determined in accordance with
ASTM D 698. The subgrade should be moisture conditioned just prior to fill placement in
order that the subgrade maintains its compaction moisture levels and does not dry out.
Structural fill (fill that provides load-bearing support) should consist of select fill placed on
prepared surfaces in lifts not to exceed eight (8) inches loose measure, with compacted
thickness not to exceed six (6) inches. All structural fill should be moisture conditioned to
within 2% of optimum moisture content, and then compacted to at least 95% of maximum
dry density as evaluated by ASTM D 698. A testing frequency of one in-place density and
moisture test for each 2,500 sf or less should be considered, with a minimum of three tests.
When establishing final grade around the structure, we recommend the following:
Elevation of ground surface adjacent to the foundation should be a minimum of at
least nine (9) inches below finished floor.
The slope of the ground surface away from the structure should be a minimum of
five (5) percent for a distance of at least ten (10) feet.
A three-foot wide mow band around the foundation perimeter can also be installed to
mitigate moisture changes affecting the foundation performance.
On-site soils may be considered for use as fill, provided they meet the select fill criteria and
are free of organics and debris. We recommend that additional samples of the blended soils
be obtained prior to and during earthwork operations to determine if the blended soils can be
used in lieu of select fill.
Foundation System
The floor slab may be supported by a slab-on-grade foundation system with exterior grade
beams founded at a minimum of 36 inches below final grade and provided the building pad
subgrade is properly prepared, compacted, and moisture conditioned. To reduce the
estimated PVR to about one inch or less and to provide a uniform support under the slab, we
recommend the slab-on-grade for the structure be supported on a pad by removing the fat
clay soils as provided in the PVR Table and backfilling with properly placed and
compacted select fill soils. Select fill pad should also extend horizontally a minimum
distance of 2 feet beyond the edge of the slab area.
Slab-on-grade floor slabs may be designed for an allowable bearing pressure of 1,200 psf for
dead loads. The floor slab system may be designed for a net allowable bearing pressure of
1,800 psf based on total loads. A subgrade modulus of 100 pci may be used in design.
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 7
These bearing pressures are based on factors of safety against bearing capacity failure of
approximately 2 and 3 for dead loads and total loads, respectively. These recommendations
are for proper development of bearing capacity for the continuous beam sections of the
foundation system, to assure that proper concrete cover is achieved between reinforcing steel
and soil, and to reduce the potential for water to migrate beneath the slab foundation.
These recommendations are not based on structural considerations. Grade beam widths and
depths for both the exterior and interior grade beams may need to be greater than
recommended herein based on actual structural design considerations and should be properly
evaluated and designed by the structural engineer. Alternatively, Post tension slab-on-grade
or cast-in-place concrete drilled straight shaft piers with grade beams and a slab-on-grade on
select fill pad can be constructed to support column loads.
PTI Slab-On-Grade Design Parameters
The Post-Tensioning Institute (PTI) provides design standards for post-tensioned slabs-on
grade. PTI parameters are selected based on the predominant soil type, the type of clay
mineral, and percentage of clay. The estimated slab design parameters from published PTI
data are provided in the following Tables and are based on center lift and edge lift
conditions. According to PTI 2nd Edition, edge moisture variation distance estimates (em)
were calculated based on a climatic factor known as Thornthwaite Moisture Index (Im).
According to PTI 3rd Edition, the em estimates were calculated based on soil and climatic
properties including an unsaturated diffusion coefficient as a primary factor. The
differential movement estimates (ym) were obtained from the tables provided in PTI 2nd
Edition design manual based on em and other soil characteristics. The ym values for PTI 3rd
Edition were calculated using the computer program VOLFLOW 1.5 and soil
characteristics. The actual soil movements are affected by soil moisture conditions that are
also influenced by non-climatic factors such as vegetation, slope, drainage, irrigation,
downspouts, and leaking water lines. Precautions should be taken to insure that proper
surface drainage is maintained during and after construction to keep uniform moisture in the
foundation soils.

**For Borings B-1, B-8, B-13, B-14, and B-15 effective PI is 32 and center lift and edge lift are 2.6 and 1.4 inches
respectively.
Moisture conditioned subgrade
For Borings B-1, B-8, B-13, B-14, and B-15 instead of removing the fat clay soils and
replacing them with select fill the subgrade can be moisture conditioned. The pad should be
stripped of vegetation and root structure, and the exposed subgrade should be proof rolled
with appropriate construction equipment weighing at least 20 tons. Then 5 feet of the soil
should then be moisture condition to minimum of 4% above optimum and at least 93% of
maximum dry density with maximum loose lift thickness of 8 inches. Minimum 10-mil
vapor retarder material per ASTM E1745 class C or better with maximum water vapor
permeance of 0.044 perms (ASTM E96) should be placed and minimum of 1-foot thickness
select fill is added within less than 48 hours. This reduces the Differential Soil Movement
for PTI to 1.1 inch and 0.5 inch for Center Lift (Shrink) and Edge Lift (Swell) respectively.
Spread Footings
For the concentrated column loads, the design structural loads can be transferred to spread
footings. The spread footings should be founded below the select structural layer and be
founded at the 4 foot depth. The footings, if founded at or below 4 foot depth, may be
designed for an allowable bearing pressure of 5.7 ksf based on total loads with included
factor of safety of 2.
These recommendations are for proper development of bearing capacity for the continuous
beam sections of the foundation system, to assure that proper concrete cover is achieved
between reinforcing steel and soil, and to reduce the potential for water to migrate beneath
the slab foundation.
Foundation Construction
We anticipate that the finished floor elevation for proposed structure will be about one or
two feet above the existing grade. TSI should be notified to review and/or modify our
recommendations given in this subsection, if additional fill required to meet the final grade
exceeds two feet.
After initial site stripping, we recommend the exposed soils to be thoroughly proof rolled
with a 20 ton pneumatic roller or loaded dump truck. Soft/weak areas detected during the
proof rolling activities should be removed and replaced with properly compacted select fill
soils. The select fill beneath the floor slab should be prepared as outlined in the previous
section of this report. This over-excavation, proof rolling, and additional fill placement
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 9
should be observed by TSI to evaluate the integrity of the fill soils for proper support of the
at-grade floor slab of the building.
The excavations for the shallow footing foundation system should be performed with
equipment capable of providing a relatively clean bearing area. The bottom 6 inches on the
planned foundation excavations should be completed with a smooth-mouthed bucket or by
hand labor. The excavations should be neatly excavated and properly formed. The soil
subgrade at the base of each footing should be evaluated following completion of the
excavation and immediately prior to placing the concrete. Debris in the bottom of the
excavation should be removed prior to steel placement. Water should not be allowed to
accumulate at the bottom of the foundation excavation. To reduce the potential for water
infiltration into the excavations and to minimize disturbance to the bearing area, we
recommend that steel and concrete be placed as soon as possible after the excavations are
completed and properly cleaned. A seal slab (2 to 4 inches) should be placed within the
footing bearing area for footings that will not be backfilled with concrete within 48 hours of
the footing excavation.
Foundation Construction Monitoring
The performance of the recommended foundation systems for the proposed structure will be
highly dependent upon the quality of construction. Thus, we recommend that building pad
compaction and foundation installation be monitored full time by an experienced TSI soil
technician under the direction of our geotechnical engineer. During foundation installation,
the base should be monitored to evaluate the condition of the subgrade.
Earthwork
Construction areas should be stripped of all vegetation including roots, loose/soft topsoil,
and other unsuitable surface materials. Following stripping and prior to placement of
additional fill, the exposed soil subgrade areas should be proof rolled with a 20 ton
pneumatic roller or a loaded dump truck to detect weak areas. Weak areas detected during
proof rolling should be removed and replaced with select fill. Proper site drainage should be
maintained during construction, so that ponding of surface runoff does not occur and cause
construction delays and/or inhibit site access.
Subsequent to proof rolling, and just prior to placement of fill, the exposed subgrade should
be evaluated for moisture and density. The subgrade should be within 2 percent of t he
optimum moisture content, and have an in-place dry density of at least 95 percent of the
Standard Effort (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density of the in-situ soils. If the moisture or
density does not meet the above criteria, the subgrade should be scarified to a minimum
depth of 8 inches, moisture adjusted to within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content,
and compacted to at least 95 percent of the Standard Effort (ASTM D 698) maximum dry
density.
Grade adjustments within the building pad area should be accomplished with select fill
composed of clean lean clay, sandy lean clay, or clayey sand soils with a plasticity index
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 10
ranging between 8 and 18 percent. Select fill should be placed on prepared surfaces in lifts
not to exceed 8 inches loose measure, with compacted thickness not to exceed 6 inches. The
select fill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the Standard Effort (ASTM D 698)
maximum dry density within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content.
If imported blended or mixed soils are intended for use to construct the building pad, TSI
should be contacted to provide additional recommendations accordingly. Blended or mixed
soils do not occur naturally. These soils are a blend of sand and clay and will require
mechanical mixing at the site. If these soils are not mixed thoroughly to break down the clay
clods and blend-in the sand to produce a uniform soil matrix, the fill material may be
detrimental to the slab performance. If blended soils are used, we recommend that additional
samples of the blended soils, as well as the clay clods, be obtained prior to and during
earthwork operations to determine if the blended soils can be used in lieu of select fill.
Prior to any filling operations, samples of the proposed borrow materials should be obtained
for laboratory moisture-density testing. The tests will provide a basis for evaluation of fill
compaction by in-place density testing. A qualified soil technician should perform sufficient
in-place density tests during the filling operations to evaluate that proper levels of
compaction, including dry unit weight and moisture content, are being attained.
Wet Weather/Soft Subgrade Considerations
Construction during and soon after wet weather periods may encounter difficulties due to
wet surficial soils becoming a general hindrance to equipment due to rutting and/or pumping
of the soil surface. If the subgrade cannot be adequately compacted to the minimum
densities, one of the following methods should be used to improve the soils: 1) removal and
replacement with select fill, 2) chemical treatment of the soil to dry the subgrade, or 3)
drying by natural means if the schedule allows. In our experience with similar soils in this
area, chemical treatment is the most efficient and effective method to increase the
supporting value of wet and soft subgrade such as that observed at this site. TSI should be
contacted for additional recommendations if chemical treatment of the soil is needed due to
the presence of wet and soft subgrade.
Swimming Pool
Typically, swimming pools are about 5 to 8 feet deep. No groundwater was observed at or
above the proposed depth of the swimming pool during our field program. Seepage could
occur at these depths, but is expected to be minor and will likely be able to be managed by
sumps and pumps for pumped removal.
We anticipate that the pool decking will be constructed on subgrade prepared in accordance
with the recommendations provided in this report. The decking of the pool is normally
designed as a conventionally reinforced slab-on-grade. The fill soils exist at the surface
across the site and the native soils are generally of moderate to high plasticity and could
induce significant movement upon grade supported floor slabs due to their significant
potential to undergo volumetric change during variations in in-situ moisture conditions
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 11
(refer to the “Slab” section). The effects of the fill soils and expansive native soils can be
reduced, however, there is no reliable means of eliminating movements of a soil supported
slab. The most frequently used means of reducing movement in soil supported slabs on
similar soils would be to use a substantial thickness of select fill. To provide uniform soil
conditions under the pool slab, and to reduce the Potential Vertical Rise (PVR) of the
subgrade to about one inch or less as described in the “Slab” section the pool deck slab
should be supported on a pad of properly placed and compacted select fill soils.
If the upper soils in the pool deck area are not replaced with select fill, we recommend that
extreme care should be exercised to evaluate the exposed soils before construction of the
pool deck. Additionally, the construction should include means of reducing the opportunity
for changes in moisture content of the surficial soil as much as pr actically possible. One way
to accomplish this is to place a sheet of polyethylene vapor barrier of sufficient thickness (10
mil or greater) under the slab. The vapor barrier should help to reduce the infiltration of
surface moisture should the concrete crack enough to allow water ingress. A sand leveling
course should not be used beneath the pool slab. The use of a turndown at the edge of the
slab would help to reduce moisture gain or loss near the edges of the slab. The depth of this
turn down should be at least 24 inches; this may help but a vertical moisture barrier to a
greater depth would be more beneficial. A moisture barrier to a depth of 6 feet would be
preferable. This moisture barrier typically consists of heavy plastic or visqueen (20 mil or
thicker) placed in a narrow trench dug close to the exterior of the deck slab. The plastic is
extended to the concrete turndown and typically attached to the concrete by a mastic
compound.
Care should be taken with water supply lines and drains, including connections which
sometimes are a weak point, associated with the swimming pool to avoid leaks, which will
affect the subgrade. Water from these sources could cause further increases in the soil
moisture resulting in an increased heave potential.
Lateral Earth Pressures
The backfill soils adjacent to below grade walls and retaining walls (such as swimming pool
walls) will impose active to at-rest earth pressures against the wall. The backfill should be
compacted to 95 percent of the Standard Effort (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density.
Design lateral earth pressures may be computed using an equivalent fluid weighing 50 pcf
for clean granular backfill and 100 pcf for on-site clay soil backfill. These pressures do not
include hydrostatic pressures nor do they include surcharge forces imposed by construction
or vehicular loading. The lateral pressure produced by surcharge may be computed as 50
percent of the vertical surcharge pressure applied as a constant pressure over the full depth
of the wall. A 2 foot compacted select fill soil should be placed at the top of granular
backfill to reduce the amount of infiltration of surface water. Filter fabric should be placed
between the granular material and other native or backfill soils.

Ft. Worth, TX 12
Pavement Design
We anticipate that the pavement subgrade will consist of low to medium plasticity, surficial
on-site fill soils. We recommend that the top 6 inches of the finished subgrade soils directly
beneath the pavement be chemically treated. Chemical treatment will increase the
supporting value of the subgrade and decrease the effect of moisture on subgrade soils. This
6 inches of treatment is a required part of the pavement design and is not a part of site and
subgrade preparation for wet/soft subgrade conditions.
Once the subgrade is properly prepared both flexible pavement systems (consisting of
asphalt and base material) and reinforced concrete pavement systems may be considered for
this project. Detailed traffic loads and frequencies were not available. However, we
anticipate that traffic will consist primarily of passenger vehicles in the parking areas and
large multi-axle delivery trucks in the driveways.
We recommend the thickness of the reinforced concrete pavement be 6 inches with 6
inches thick treated subgrade. This system was derived based on general characterization
of the subgrade. Specific testing (such as CBR tests, resilient modulus tests, etc.) was not
performed for this project to evaluate the support characteristics of the subgrade. We also
recommend that waste dumpster areas be constructed of at least 7 inches of reinforced
concrete pavement. The concrete pad areas should be designed so that the vehicle wheels of
the trucks are supported on the concrete.
The pavement design engineer should consider these and other similar situations when
planning and designing pavement areas. Waste bin and other areas that are not designed to
accommodate these situations often result in localized pavement failures.
Presented below are our recommended material requirements for the pavement sections:
Reinforced Concrete Pavement – The materials and properties of reinforced concrete
pavement shall meet applicable requirements in the ACI Manual of Concrete Practice. The
Portland cement concrete mix should have a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 3,500
psi.
Reinforcing Steel – Reinforcing steel should consist of the following:
6.0 inch: #3 bars at 12 inches or #4 bars at 18 inches on centers in both directions.
7.0 inch: #4 bars at 18 inches on centers in both directions.
Control Joint Spacing – ACI recommendations indicate that control joints should be spaced
at about 30 times the thickness of the concrete pavement. Furthermore, ACI recommends a
maximum control joint spacing of 5 feet for 6-inch or thicker pavements. Sawcut control
joints should be cut within 6 to 12 hours of concrete placement.
Expansion Joint Spacing – ACI recommendations indicate that regularly spaced expansion
joints may be deleted from concrete pavements. Therefore, the installation of expansion
joints is optional and should be evaluated by the design team.
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 13
Dowels at Expansion Joints – The dowels at expansion joints, if the joints are provided,
should be spaced at 12-inch centers and consist of the following:
6.0 inch: 3/4-inch diameter, 14 inches long with 6-inch embedment
7.0 inch: 7/8-inch diameter, 14 inches long with 6-inch embedment
Treated Subgrade – The subgrade soils should be treated with lime-cement in accordance
with TxDOT 2014 Standard Specifications Item 265. The amount of lime-cement should be
determined for the subgrade soils by conducting laboratory tests on the subgrade once final
subgrade elevation has been established at the time of construction. Based on the
classification test results, we recommend that about 4 percent lime and 6 percent cement by
dry weight be used for estimating and planning. The quantity of lime and cement required is
computed as a percent of dry weight. The subgrade should be compacted to a minimum of
95 percent of the Standard Effort (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density at a moisture
content within 2 percent of optimum. Preferably, traffic should be kept off the treated
subgrade for about 7 days to facilitate curing of soil - chemical mixture. In addition, the
subgrade is not suitable for heavy construction traffic prior to paving.
The pavement design methods described above are intended to provide structural sections
with adequate thickness over a particular subgrade such that wheel loads are reduced to a
level the subgrade can support. The support characteristics of the subgrade for pavement
design do not account for shrink/swell movements of an expansive clay subgrade. Thus the
pavement may be adequate from a structural standpoint, yet still experience cracking and
deformation due to shrink/swell related movement of the subgrade. Post-construction
subgrade movements and some cracking of pavements are not uncommon for clayey
subgrade conditions such as those observed at this site. Minimizing moisture changes in the
subgrade is important to reduce shrink/swell movements. Although lime treatment will help
to reduce such movement/cracking this movement/cracking cannot be economically
eliminated.
Related civil design factors such as subgrade drainage, shoulder support, cross-sectional
configurations, surface elevations and environmental factors which will significantly affect
the service life must be included in the preparation of the construction drawings and
specifications. Normal periodic maintenance will be required.
Long-term pavement performance will be dependent upon several factors, including
maintaining subgrade moisture levels and providing for preventive maintenance. The
following recommendations should be implemented to help promote long-term pavement
performance.
Site grading should be designed to drain away from the pavements, preferably at a
minimum grade of 2%;
The subgrade and the pavement surface should be designed to promote proper
surface drainage, preferably at a minimum grade of 2%;
Joint sealant should be installed, and cracks should be sealed immediately;
Curbs should be extended into the treated subgrade for a depth of at least 4 inches to
5050 Azle Ave
Ft. Worth, TX 14
help prevent moisture migration into the subgrade soils beneath the pavement
section; and
Compacted, low permeability clayey backfill should be placed against the exterior
side of the curb and gutter.
Preventive maintenance should be planned and provided for the pavements at this site.
Preventive maintenance activities are intended to slow the rate of pavement deterioration
and consist of both localized maintenance (e.g. crack and joint sealing and patching) and
global maintenance (e.g. surface sealing). Prior to implementing any maintenance,
additional engineering observations are recommended to evaluate the type and extent of
preventive maintenance needed.
Drainage
All grades must provide effective drainage away from the buildings during and after
construction. Water permitted to pond next to the buildings can result in greater soil
movements than discussed in the report, and can result in unacceptable differential floor slab
movement, cracked slab and walls, and roof leaks. Estimated movements and settlements
described in this report are based on effective drainage for the life of the buildings and
cannot be relied upon if effective drainage is not maintained.
Exposed ground should be sloped away from the buildings for at least 10 feet beyond the
perimeter of the buildings. After construction and landscaping, we recommend verifying
final grades to document that effective drainage has been achieved. Grades around the
buildings should also be periodically inspected and adjusted as necessary.
Flatwork will be subject to post construction movement. Maximum grades practical should
be used for flatwork to prevent water from ponding. Allowance in final grades should also
consider post-construction movement of flatwork, particularly if such movement would be
critical. Where flatwork abuts the buildings, effectively seal and maintain joints to prevent
surface water infiltration.
The sprinkler system should be a minimum of 5 feet away from the buildings. Low-volume,
drip style landscaped irrigation should not be used near the buildings. Collect roof runoff in
gutters and discharge downspouts onto hard-scapes which slope away from the buildings or
connect them to the storm sewer utility.
Utility trenches are a common source of water infiltration and migration. All utility trenches
that penetrate beneath the buildings should be effectively sealed to restrict water intrusion
and flow through the trenches that could migrate below the buildings. We recommend
constructing an effective clay “trench plug” that extends at least 5 feet out from the face of
the buildings exterior. The plug material should consist of clay (PI > 20) compacted at a
water content at or above the soils optimum water content. The clay fill should be placed to
completely surround the utility line and be compacted in accordance with recommendations
in this report.

GENERAL COMMENTS
TSI should be retained to review the final design plans and specifications, so comments can
be made regarding interpretation and implementation of our geotechnical recommendations
in the design and specifications. TSI also should be retained to provide testing and
observation during excavation, grading, foundation and construction phases of the project.
The analysis and recommendations presented in this report are based upon the data obtained
from the borings performed and from other information discussed in this report. This report
does not reflect variations that may occur between borings, across the site, or due to the
modifying effects of weather. The nature and extent of such variations may not become
evident until during or after construction. If variations appear, we should be immediately
notified so that further evaluation and supplemental recommendations can be provided.
The scope of services for this project does not include either specifically or by implication
any environmental or biological (e.g., mold, fungi, and bacteria) assessment of the site or
identification or prevention of pollutants, hazardous materials or conditions. If the owner is
concerned about the potential for such contamination or pollution, other studies should be
undertaken.
For any excavation construction activities at this site, all Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) guidelines and directives should be followed by the Contractor
during construction to insure a safe working environment. In regards to worker safety,
OSHA Safety and Health Standards require the protection of workers from excavation
instability in trench situations.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of our client for specific a pplication to
the project discussed and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
geotechnical engineering practices. No warranties, either expressed or implied, are intended
or made. Site safety, excavation support, and dewatering requirements are the responsibility
of others. In the event that changes in the nature, design, or location of the project as
outlined in this report are planned, the conclusions and recommendations contained in this
report shall not be considered valid unless TSI reviews the changes and either verifies or

FIELD AND LABORATORY TESTING PROCEDURES
(TEST PROCEDURES ARE PRESENTED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES)
FIELD TESTING
A. Boring Procedure Between Samples
The borehole is extended downward, between samples, by
continuous flight, hollow or solid stem augers or by rotary drilling
techniques using bentonite drilling fluid or water.
B. Penetration Test and Split-Barrel Sampling of Soils
ASTM D-1586
This sampling method consists of driving a 2-inch outside diameter
split barrel sampler using a 140 pound hammer freely falling through a
distance of 30 inches. The sampler is first seated 6 inches into the
material to be sampled and then driven an additional 12 inches. The
number of blows required to drive the sampler the final 12 inches is
known as the Standard Penetration Resistance. Recovered samples are
first classified as to color and texture by the driller. Later, in the
laboratory, the driller’s field classification is reviewed by the soils
engineer who examines each sample.
C. Thin-Walled Tube Geotechnical Sampling
ASTM D-1587
This method consists of pushing thin walled steel tubes, usually 3
inches in diameter, into the soils to be sampled using hydraulic or other
means. Cohesive soils are usually to be sampled in this manner and
relatively undisturbed samples are recovered.
D. Soil Investigation and Sampling by Auger Borings
ASTM D-1452
This method consists of augering a hole and removing representative
soil samples from the auger flight or bit at 5 foot depth intervals or with
each change in substrata. Disturbed sampled are obtained and this
method is, therefore, limited to situations where it is satisfactory to
determine the approximate subsurface profile.
E. Diamond Core Drilling for Site Investigation
ASTM D-2113
This method consists of advancing a hole into hard strata by rotating
a single or double tube core barrel equipped with a cutting bit.
Diamond, tungsten carbide, or other cutting agents may be used for the
bit. Wash water is used to remove the cuttings and cool the bit.
Normally, a 2 inch outside diameter by 1-3/8 inch inside diameter (NX)
coring bit is used unless otherwise noted. The rock or hard material
recovered within the core barrel is examined in the field and in the
laboratory and the cores are stored in partitioned boxes. The core
recovery is the length of the material recovered and is expressed as a
percentage of the total distance penetrated.
F. Visual – Manual Soil Classification Procedure
ASTM D-2488
This procedure is a visual – manual soil classification methodology
for the description of soil for engineering purposed when precise soils
classification is not required.
LABORATORY TESTING
A. Atterberg Limits: Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit and Plasticity Index of Soils
ASTM D-4318, TEX 104-E, 105-E and 106-E
Atterberg Limits determine the soil’s plasticity characteristics. The soil’s
Plasticity Index (PI) is representative of this characteristic and is the difference
between the Liquid Limit (LL) and the Plastic Limit (PL). The LL is the
moisture content at which the soil will flow as a heavy viscous fluid. The PL is
the moisture content at which the soil begins to lose its plasticity. The test
results are presented on the boring logs adjacent to the appropriate sampling
information.
B. Particle Size Analysis of Soils
ASTM D-422 and TEX 110-E
Grain size analysis tests are performed to determine the particle size and
distribution of the samples tested. The grain size distribution of the soils coarser
than the Standard Number 200 sieve is determined by passing the sampled
through a standard set of nested sieves.
C. Laboratory Determination of Water (Moisture) Content of Soil and Rock
ASTM D-2216 and TEX 103-E
The moisture content of soil is defined as the ratio, expressed as a percentage,
of the weight of water in a given soil mass to the weight of solid particles. It is
determined by measuring the wet and oven dry weights of a soil sample. The
test results are presented on the boring logs.
D. Unconfined Compressive Strength of Cohesive Soil
ASTM D-2166
The unconfined compressive strength of soil is determined by placing a
section of an undisturbed sample into a loading frame and applying an axial load
until the sample fails in shear. The test results are presented on the boring logs
adjacent to the appropriate sampling information.
E. California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of Lab Compacted Soils
ASTM D-1883
The CBR test is performed by compacting soil in a 6 inch diameter mold at
the desired density, soaking the sample for four days under a surcharge load
approximating the pavement weight and then testing the soils in punching shear.
A 2 inch diameter piston is forced into the soil to determine the resistance to
penetration. The CBR is the ratio of the actual load required to produce 0.1
inches of penetration to that producing the same penetration in a standard
crushed stone.
F. Swell Test
ASTM D-4546
The swell test is performed by confining a 1 inch thick specimen in a 2-1/2
inch diameter stainless steel ring and loading the specimen to the approximate
overburden pressure. The test specimen is then inundated with distilled water
and allowed to swell for 48 hours. The volumetric swell is measured as a
percentage of the total volume and is converted mathematically to linear swell.
G. Compaction Tests
ASTM D-698, D-1557, TEX 113-E or 114-E
The compaction test is performed by compacting soil in a steel mold at
varying moisture contents. Layers are compacted using a hammer weight and
number of blows per layer which vary with the different test procedures. ASTM
D-698, D-1557, TEC 113-E and 114-E. The data is plotted and the maximum
weight and optimum moisture content is determined.
H. Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes
Unified Soil Classification System, D-2487
This standard describes a system for classifying mineral and organo-mineral
soils for engineering purposes based on laboratory determination of particle-size
characteristics, liquid limit, and plasticity index and shall be used when precise
classification is required.
RECOMMENDED SPECIFICATIONS FOR PLACEMENT OF SELECT FILL
1. General
The soils engineer shall be the owners representative to control the placement of compacted fill. The soils engineer shall
approve the subgrade preparation, the fill materials, the method of placement and compaction, and shall give written
approval of the completed fill.
2. Preparation of Existing Ground
All topsoil, plants and other organic material shall be removed. The exposed surface shall be scarified, moistened if
necessary, and compacted in the manner specified for subsequent layers of fill.
3. Select Fill Material
Fill shall have a liquid limit of less than 35 and a Plasticity Index between 8 and 15. The fill shall contain no organic
material or other perishable material, and no stones larger than 6 inches. Fill material shall be approved by the soils
engineer.
4. Placing Select Fill
Fill materials shall be placed in horizontal layers not exceeding 8 inches thickness after compaction. Successive loads of
material shall be dumped so as to secure even distribution, avoiding the formation of layers of lenses of dissimilar
materials. The contractor shall route hill hauling equipment to distribute travel evenly over the fill area.
5. Compaction of Select Fill
a. Moisture Control: The moisture content of the fill material shall be distributed uniformly throughout each layer
of the material. The allowable range of moisture content during compaction shall be within plus two (+2) and
minus two (-2) percentage points of the optimum moisture content. The contractor may be directed to add
necessary moisture to the material either in the borrow area or upon the fill surface or to dry the material, as
directed by the soils engineer. The drying of cohesive soils between lifts to moisture contents less than 70% of
optimum before the placement of subsequent lifts shall be avoided or the fill reworked at the proper moisture
content.
b. Compaction: The material in each layer shall be compacted to obtain proper densities. Compaction by the
hauling equipment alone will not be considered sufficient. Structural fills, including pavement subgrade,
subbase, and base, shall be compacted to densities equivalent to the percentages of the Standard Proctor (ASTM
D-698) or Modified Proctor (ASTM D-1557) maximum dry density listed in the table below. The Texas
Department of Highways and Public Transportation Method TEX 113-E or TEX 114-E compaction test, which
varies the compactive effort with soil type, may be substituted for the Standard or Modified Proctor methods
and percentages listed in the table below.

Soils classified as coarse grained soils are those with more than 50%, by weight, retained on the No. 200 Standard Sieve.
6. Comparison Testing
Field density tests for the determination of the compaction of the fill shall be performed by TSI Laboratories, Inc. in
accordance with recognized procedures for making such tests. A representative number of tests shall be made in each
compacted lift at locations selected by the soils engineer or his/her representative. For general structural and paving fills,
we suggest one test per 3,000 square feet per lift with a minimum of three tests per lift.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ABOUT YOUR
GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING REPORT
The following observations and suggestions are provided to help you
better utilize your geotechnical engineering report and to reduce
construction problems and delays related to the soil and groundwater
conditions.
REPORT IS BASED UPON SPECIFIC SITE AND PROJECT
A geotechnical report is based on a subsurface exploration conducted on
a specific site and planned using specific project information. The
project information typically includes structure size and configuration,
type of construction, and general location on the site. Limitations, such
as existing buildings or utilities, specific foundation requirements for
structures, budget limitations, and the level of risk assumed by the client
may affect the scope of the exploration.
Since the report applies to a specific structure and site, the geotechnical
report should not be used in the following circumstances unless the
geotechnical engineer has reviewed the changes and concurs in the use
of the report.
• When the nature of the proposed structure is changed, such
as an office building instead of a warehouse or parking
garage, or a refrigerated warehouse instead of one which is
not refrigerated
• When the size, configuration, or floor elevations is changed
• When the location of the structure on the site is changed
• When there is a change of ownership
FINDINGS ARE PROFESSIONAL ESTIMATES
The actual subsurface conditions are determined only at the boring
locations and only at the time the samples are taken. The information is
extrapolated by the geotechnical engineer who then renders professional
opinions regarding the characteristics of the subsurface materials, the
behavior of the soils during construction, and appropriate foundation
designs. No exploration, however complete, can be assured of sampling
the entire range of soil conditions. The soils may vary between or
beyond the borings and stratum transitions may be more gradual or
more abrupt, and all types of oils and rock existing on the site may not
be found in the borings. The geotechnical engineer is often retained
during construction to evaluate variances and recommend solutions to
problems encountered on the site.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS CAN CHANGE
Grading operations on or close to the site, floods, groundwater fluctuations,
utility construction, and utility leaks are among the events that can change the
subsurface conditions. The geotechnical engineer should e kept apprised of such
events.
GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES ARE PERFORMED
FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES AND PERSONS
A geotechnical report may have been made to evaluate foundation alternatives
only, for preliminary site evaluation, or for other limited purposes. The
exploration may also have been limited by the direction of the client, budget
limitations, or the level of risk assumed by the client. Therefore, no one other
than the original client should use the report for its intended purpose or other
purposes without conferring with the geotechnical engineer.
GEOTECHNICAL REPORTS ARE SUBJECT TO
MISINTERPRETATION
Geotechnical reports are based on the project information available at the time
the report was made and the judgment and opinions of the geotechnical
engineer. This specialized information is subject to misinterpretation by other
design professionals, contractors and owners. The geotechnical engineer should
be retained during the design process to interpret the recommendations and
review the adequacy of the plans and specifications relative to geotechnical
issues. The boring logs should no be separated from the geotechnical report,
but, rather the entire report should be made available to the contractors and
others needing this information.
