ducts, and similar items, are shown schematically and are not intended to
portray precise physical layout.
1) Final physical arrangement is determined by the Contractor, subject to the
City's approval.
2) However, design of future modifications of the facility may require
accurate information as to the final physical layout of items which are
shown only schematically on the Drawings.
b. Show on the job set of Record Drawings, by dimension accurate to within 1
inch, the centerline of each run of items.
1) Final physical arrangement is determined by the Contractor, subject to the
City's approval.
2) Show, by symbol or note, the vertical location of the Item ("under slab", "in
ceiling plenum", "exposed", and the like).
3) Make all identification sufficiently descriptive that it may be re(ated
reliably to the Specifications.
c. The City may waive the requirements for conversion of schematic layouts
where, in the City's judgment, conversion serves no useful purpose. However,
do not rely upon waivers being issued except as specifically issued in writing
by the City.
B. Final Project Record Documents
1. Transfer of data to Drawings
a. Carefully transfer change data shown on the job set of Record Drawings to the
corresponding final documents, coordinating the changes as required.
, b. Clearly indicate at each affected detail and other Drawing a full description of
' changes made during construction, and the actual location of items.

Leave formwork for beam soffits, joists, slabs, and other structural elements
that supports weight of concrete in place until concrete has achieved at least 70
percent of its 28-day design compressive strength.
Do not remove formwork supporting conventionally reinforced concrete until
concrete has attained 70 percent of its specified 28 day compressive strength as
established by tests of field cured cylinders. In the absence of cylinder tests,
supporting formwork shall remain in place until the concrete has cured at a
temperature of at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit for the minimum cumulative time
periods given in ACI 347, Section 3.7.2.3. Add the period of time when the
surrounding air temperature is below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, to the minimum
listed time period. Formwork for 2-way conventionally reinforced slabs shall
remain in place for at least the minimum cumulative time periods specified for
1-way slabs of the same maximum span.
Immediately reshore 2-way conventionally reinforced slabs after formwork
removal. Reshores shall remain until the concrete has attained the specified 28
day compressive strength.
Minimum cumulative curing times may be reduced by the use of high-early
strength cement or forming systems which allow form removal without
disturbing shores, but only after the Contractor has demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the Engineer that the early removal of forms will not cause
excessive sag, distortion or damage to the concrete elements.

3. Apply lime on(y on an area where mixing can be completed during the same
working day.
Minimize dust and scattering of lime by wind. Do not apply lime when wind
conditions, in the opinion of the City, cause blowing lime to become dangerous to
traffic or objectionable to adjacent property owners.
Slurry Placement.
a. Hydrated Lime
1) Mix Lime with water 1nd apply slurry
2) Appty Type B, commercial lime slurry, with a lime percentage not less
applicable for grade used
3) Distribute lime at the rate shown on the plans
4) Make successive passes over a measured surface of roadway until the
proper moisture and lime content have been achieved.
b. Quicklime
1) Spread the residue for the Quicklime slurrying procedure uniformly over
the length of the roadway.
2) Residue is primarily inert material with little stabilizing value; however,
may contain a small amount of Quicklime particles that slake slowly. A
concentration of these particles could cause the compacted stabilized
material to swell during slaking.
E. Mixing.
l. Begin mixing within 6 hours of application of lime.
2. Hydrated lime exposed to the open air for 6 hours or more between application and
mixing, or that experiences excessive loss due to washing or blowing, will not be
accepted for payment.
3. Thoroughly mix the material and lime using approved equipment.
4. Mix until a homogeneous, friable mixture of material 1nd lime is obtained, free
from all clods and lumps.
5. Do not mix greater than 1 inch deeper than the stabilization depth specified.
6. Materials containing plastic clay or other materials that are not readi(y mixed with
lime shall be mixed as thoroughly as possible at the time of lime application,
brought to the proper moisture content and sealed with a pneumatic roller.
7. Allow the mixture to cure for 72 hours or as directed by City.
8. When pebble grade quicklime is used, allow the mixture to cure for 2 to 4 days.
9. Sprinkle the treated materials during the mixing and curing operation to achieve
adequate hydration 1nd proper moisture content.
10. After curing, resume mixing until a homogeneous, friable mixture is obtained.
1 l. After mixing, City will sample the mixture at roadway moisture and test in
accordance with Tex-101-E, Part III, to determine compliance with the gradation
requirements in Table 5,

3. If remedial work beyond routing and sealing is determined to be necessary, the
Inspector and the CONTRACTOR will attempt to agree on the cause of the
cracking. If agreement is reached that the cracking is due to deficient materials or
workmanship, the CONTRACTOR shall perform the remedial work at no cost to
the City. Remedial work in this case shall be limited to removing and replacing the
deficient work with new materia( and workmanship that meets the requirements of
the contract.
4. If remedial work beyond routing and sealing is determined to be necessary, and the
Inspector and the CONTRACTOR agree that the cause of the cracking is not
deficient materials or workmanship, the City may request the CONTRACTOR to
provide an estimate of the cost of the necessary remedial work and/or additional
work to address the cause of the cracking, and the CONTRACTOR will perform
that work at the agreed-upon price if the City elects to do so.
5. If remedial work is necessary, and the Inspector and the CONTRACTOR cannot
agree on the cause of the cracking, the City may hire an independent geotechnical
engineer to perform testing and analysis to determine the cause of the cracking.
The contractor will escrow 50°Io of the proposed costs of the geotechnical contract
with the City. The CON'TRACTOR and the City shall use the services of a
geotechnical firm acceptable to both parties.
6. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the cracking is the
CONTRACTOR'S deficient material or workmanship, the remedial work will be
performed at the CONTRACTOR'S entire expense and the CONTRACTOR will
also reimburse the City for the balance of the cost of the geotechnical investigation
over and above the amount that has previously been escrowed. Remedial work in
this case shall be limited to removing and replacing the deficient work with new
material and workmanship that meets the requirements of the contract.
7. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the cracking is not
the CONTRACTOR'S deficient material or workmanship, the City will return the
escrowed funds to the CONTRACTOR. The Contractor, on request, will provide
the City an estimate of the costs of the necessary remedial work and/or additional
work and will perform the work at the agreed-upon price as directed by the City.

g. Deflection Design
t) Base pipe design on pipe stiffness, soil stiffness and load on the pipe.
2) Design pipe according to the Modified Iowa Formula as detailed by the
Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association in the Handbook of PVC Pipe, using the
following parameters:
a) Unit Weight of Fill (w) = 130 pounds per cubic foot
b) Live Load = AASHTO HS 20
c) Trench Depth = 12 Peet minimum, or as indicated in Drawings
d) Maximum (E') = 1,000 max
e) Deflection Lag F�ctor (DL) = 1.0
� Bedding Factor constant (K) = 0.1
g) Mean radius of the pipe (r), inches, as indicated in Drawings

h. Pipe Flotation: If the pipe is buried in common saturated soil (about 120 pounds
per cubic foot) with at least 1'/a pipe diameters of cover, pipe is generally not
subject to flotation. If shallower, check groundwater flotation potential.
Flotation will occur if:
Fb � Wp + W f+ W�
Where: Fb = buoyant force, pound per foot
Wp = empty pipe weight, pound per foot
W f= weight of flooded soil, pound per foot
W� = weight of dry soil, pound per foot
Values and formulas for the above variables can be obtained from the pipe
manufacturer and site specific soil conditions.

This report conforms to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition..
Plate A.1 depicts the project vicinity and approximate locations of exploration borings_
1,2 Purpase and Scope
The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurtace
conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered,
develop recommendations for the type or types of pavement subgrade preparatian 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 samptes for
testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples ta determine pertinent engineering
properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field
and faboratory data ta 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
recomm�ndations have been interpreted as intended.

2.0 FIE�D EXPLORATiON AND LABORATORY TESTING
2.1 Field Facploratian
Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by 6 vertical soil borings. Borings B-1
through B-6 were drilled to a depth of 10 feet below existing grades, The borings were drilled with
truck mounted driliing equipment using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations
shown on the Plan of Borings, Piate A..1, The baring logs are included on Plates A..4 through A.9
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 lirnit loss of moisture..
The consistency of cohesive soil samples was avaluated in the field using a calibrated hand
' penetrometer. ln this test a �.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the �elatively 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
i value is tabulated as 4.5+..

Ground-water observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the upper right
vf the boring logs. Upon completion of the borings, the bore holes were backfilied with hydrated
bentonite chips and properiy plugged at the surface with asphalt where applicable,
2.2 Laboratory Testing
Laborafory soii tesfs were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the
borings.. In addition ta the classification tests (liquid limits, plastic limits, and percent passing the
No, 200 sieve), moisture content, hand penetrometer, and unit weight tests were performed
Results of the laboratory classi�cation tests, moisture content, and unit weight tests conducted for
this project are inctuded on the boring logs.
Three swell tests were petfiormed on specimens from selected samples of the clays.. These tests
were performed to help in evaluafing the swell potential of in-situ soils. ihe results of the swell
tests are presented on Plate A.10,.
Th�ee soluble sulfate tests were conducted on selected soil samples recovered from the borings.
The sulfate testing was conducted to help identify sulfate-induced heaving potential of the soils,.
Sulfate-induced heaving can cause detrimental volumetric changes ta a lime modified subgrade.,
The result of the sulfate tests are presented on Plates A.11.
An Eades and Grirn Lime Series test was pertormed an a selected sample to identify the
appropriate concentration of lime to add to soils for modification purpases. The results of the lime
series test are presented on Plate A.12.,
Nine 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 ior CMJ Engineering, inc, by ML Testing, LLC.
The results of the triaxia! tests are presented on Plates A,13 through A.21.
The above laboratory tests �ere performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM
procedures, or generally accepted practice.

3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDfTIONS
3.1 Site Geologies
According to the Dallas Sheet of the Geoloqic Atlas of Texas, the project sites are geologically
located in alluvium underlain by the Kiamichi Formation �f the Lower Cretaceous age. The
alluvium consists of silty and sandy clays with gravei. The Kiamichi Formation consists of shale
occasionally with alternating clay layers. The formation typically weathers to form residual deposits
of highly active plastic clay.
3.2 Soil Conditions
Specific types and depths af subsurface strata encountered at the boring focations 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 ar
ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various
soil types are approximate..
Pavement is present at Borings B-1 through B-6, consisting of 1 to 3 inches of asphalt surfacing.
Crushed rock is present beneath the asphalt surface with thicknesses of 3 and 6 inches. No
significant fills were noted within the borings,.
Natural soils consist of dark brown and brown silty clays. Calcareous nodules are generally
present throughout the natural soils and iimestone fragments or gravels are found in select
reaches., The gravels can occur in abundance.
The various clays had tested l,iquid Limits (LL) ranging from 36 to 55 and Plasticity Indices (PI)
ranging from 20 to 33 and are classified as CL and CH by the USCS.. The various clays were
generally very sfiff to hard (soil basis) in consistency, with pocket penetrometer readings of 3.5 to
greater than 4.5 tsf. The clay soils had tested dry unit weight values ranging from 95 to 110 pcf
and moisture content values of the clays range from 7 to 24 percent.
Report No. 131 �09-88 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC.

3.3 Graund-Water Observations
The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground-water seepage
during drilling.. Ground water was not encountered during drilling in the borings. Ali borings were
also dry at completion of drilling operations.
Fiuctuations of the ground-water level can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of
rainfall; site topography and runoff; hydraulic conductivity of soil strata; and other factors not
evident at the time the borings were perFormed. Ground water can occur in joints or gravel seams
in the clays or via more permeable strata.
4.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN
4.9 Pavement Subgrade Considerations
4.1_ 1 General
�The performance of the pavement for this reconstruction project depends upon several factors
including: the charac�eristics of the supporting soil; the magnitude and frequency of wheel load
applications; the quafity of construction materials; the contractor's placement and workmanship
abilities; and the desired period of design life. The success of the pavement subgrade is subgrade
soil strength and control of water. Adequate subgrade performance can be achieved by modifying
or stabilizing the existing sails used to construct the pavement subgrade.
Pavement sections are susceptible fo 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
stabilized subgrade or flexible base extend a minimurn of 12 inches beyond the surface course on
each side of the street. Maintenance should be provided when edge support deteriorates_
4.1.2 Subprade Preparation
Anticipated subgrade materials predaminately consist of moderately to highly plastic silty clays, 7he
higher plasticity clays, those with a PI of 20 or greater, are subject to loss in support value with the
moisture increases which occur beneath pavement sections, They react with hydrated lime, which
serves to imorove and maintain their support value. Treatment of these soiis with hydrated lime wi11
improve their subgrade characteristics to support pavement structures.
Report No,131-09-86
CMJ ENGINEERING,INC.

A visual observation of the pavement subgrade should be considered foliowing rough grading to
determine specific materials which are present that would benefit from the addition of lime. In lieu of
lime stabilization, consideration may be given to substituting a flexible base meeting TxDOT Item 247,
Type A, Grade 1 or 2 on an equal basis.
Seasonal water seeps can occur where the gravel is approached or exposed by cuis. Subsoil
drains may be required in some areas to intercept this seepage, This can be evaluated after
grading has been pertormed.
4.2 Potential Vertical Movements
Estimates of expansive movement potential have been calculated using TxDOT Test Method Tex
124-E.. Potential ve�tical movements on the order of 1'/2 to 2'/Z inches are estimated for
pavements/structures situated near existing grade. Movements in excess of ti�ese estimates can
vccur if poor drainage, excessive water collection, leaking pipelines, etc. occur, Any such
excessive water conditions should be rectified as soon as possible. In order to minimize rainwater
infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the
pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement shauld be sealed on a routine basis after
construction,
4.3 Sulfate-fnduced 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,
Soluble sulfate levels in soils on the order of 1,000 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 I�vels of the tested samples ranged from less than 100 to 133 ppm.. Since no
samples tested were above 1,000 ppm, additional field sampling of the subgracte soils is not
required during construction in accordance with Special Technical Specifiication STS-024
Subgrade Modification/Stabilization, Section 2 00, Parfs A and B, City of Fort Worth Pavement
Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition.

4.4 Pavement Subgrade P�eparation
4.4.1 Lime Stabilization
Lime stabilization is recommended for all subgrade areas with plastic clays, typically with Ptasticity
indices greater than 20. Prior to Ilme addition, the subgrade shoutd be proofroiled with heavy
pneumatic equipment. Any soft o� 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, Specia!
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 limestone fragrnents, grave{, and
calcareous nodules in the surficial soils can complicate mixing of fhe soil and lime.
It is recommended a minimum af 6 percent hydrated lime be used to stabilize the clay subgrade
soils.. The estimated amount of hydrated lime required to stabilize the subgrade should be on the
order of 30 pounds per square ya�d based on a dry unit weight of 110 pcf for a 6-inch depth, The
hydrated lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended wi#h the upper 6 inches of the c(ay
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 far Construction of
Highways, Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition.
4.4.2 Subgrade Preparation Considerations
It is recommended that subgrade stabilization/flexible base 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 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 no# be allowed to pond in order to p�event percolation and subgrade softening, and
subgrade treatments should be added to the subgrade after removal of all surface vegetation and
debris.. Sand should be specificafly prohibited beneath pavement areas, since these more porous
soils can allow water inflow, resulting in heave and strength loss of subgrade soils (lime stabilized
Report No_ 139-09-86 CMJ ENGINEERING,INC.

soil wili be allowed for fine grading), After fine grading each area in preparation for paving, the
subgrade surface should be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non-
yielding subgrade..
Surface drainage is critical to the performance of this pavement. Water should be allowed to exit
the pavement surface quickiy. All pavement construction should be pertormed in accordance with
the procedures provided in Section 4..6.
4.5 Pavement Sections
Pavement analyses were performed using methods outlined in the AASHTO Guide for Desiqn of
Pavement Structures, 1993 Edition, published by the American Association of State Nighway and
Transportation Officials and the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Sfandards Manual, 2005
�dition, 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,
Sased on the results af the fietd and laboratory investigation and on soil plasticity properties, the
following design parameters were used in aur thickness design calculations for the proposed
streets (soil parameters were conservatively established for the soils that are expected to exhibit
lower bearing strengths):

According to the City of Fo�t Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, the
allawable drainage coefficienf for rigid concrete slabs placed directly on a lime stabilized ciay
subgrade withouf 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
addition, a reduction factor rnust be applied in the cafculation for the subgrade resilient modulus for
flexible pavements equal to 80 percent of the calculated raw subgrade CBR value.. The above
requirements directly affect pavement thickness calculations..
4.6 Pavement Material Requirements
' Ma#eriai and process speci�cations are required to be in accordance with the City of Fort Worth

specifications generally include the following references to TxDOT Standard Specifications for
Construction of Hiqhways, Streets and Bridqes, 2004 Edition,
Reinforced Portland Cement Concrete: Reinforced Portland cement concrete pavement should
consist of Portland cement concrete having a 28-day compressive strength of at least 3,500 psi.
The mix should be designed in accordance with Item 360, Texas Department of Transportation

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 2'/Z inches. (n order ta minimize rainwater
infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the
pavement slabs, all cracks and }oints 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 aUowed 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 Fart Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical
Specification (STS) covers the requirements for generai earthwork, undercutting excavation and
Report No.131 •09•86 CMJ ENGINEERING, TNC.
10
backfill for unstable subgrades for City Streets inciuding excavation, cornpacted earth fiil, flowabie
fill, and trench backfill. The design engineer may refer ta this specification directly in the contract
documents. Related requirements are found within the Special Technical Specification.
5.2 Utilities
Unusual problems with caving soils or collapsing materfals were not noted at the boring locations
Care should be taken that utility cuts are not left open for extended periods, and that the cuts are
properly backfilled., Backfilling should be accomplished with properly compacted impermeable
soils, rather than granular materials in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design -
Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS}.,
Trench excavations should be slaped 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 Erosian and Sediment Controt
All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation dunng construction, and
all permanent slapes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with
permanent erasion and sediment control facilities. Alf applicable ordinances and codes regarding
erosion and sediment control should be followed,
6.0 C�NSTRUCTION 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 anornalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed.
Therefore, it is recommended thai CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to observe earthwork and
foundation installation and perform materials evaluatinn during the construction phase of #he
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 salutions to unanficipated conditions Unti) these
Report No.131-09-86 CMJ ENGINEERING,INC.
11
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
befween the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer.
7.0 REP4RT CLOSURE
The borings for this study were selected by CMJ Engineering, Inc. The lacations and elevations of
the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used in their
determination, The bo�ng (ogs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soit
encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the intertace between these
materials. The logs also contain our field representa#ive's interpretation af 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, Laboraiory soil classificatiort tests
were also performed on samples from selected depths in ihe 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 Iogs �f borings represent visual estimates
' of classifications for those portions af 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 conditians, this report presents data on ground-water levels as they
were obse►ved during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been
made in the borings at the times and under cpnditions stated in the text of the report and on the
. boring logs. (t should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground-water table can occur
wifh passage of time due to variations in rainfaU, temperature and other factors., Also, this reporE
daes 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 commanly encountered and
cannot be fully predicted by mere soil sampies, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected
conditions frequently require that additionai expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properiy
designed and constructed project Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is
recommended to accommodate such potentiai 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 af the subsurface conditions throughout the site; that is,
ihe 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 aur borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we
must be advlsed 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 t� 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, cansidering 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 recommenda#ions
contained in this report. ln addition, we are avaiiable to observe construction, particular{y the
compaction of structural fill, or backfill and the construction of foundations as recommended in the
report, and such other field observatians 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
