1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description
This report presents the resuits of a geotechnical study for three culve�ts pianned in the Stockyards
area of Fort Worth, Texas. The new culve�t crossings are located at B�ennan Avenue, N.E. 28�'
Street and Dewey Street, just east of Decatur Avenue along LeBow Channel. Culverts are
understood to consist of both arch- and box-type culverts. The cuivert bases wiii be approximately
8 to 12 feet below pavement grade. Plate A_1 depicts the project location and location of
exploration borings.
1.2 Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine subsurface conditions,
evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered, develop
recommendations for the type or types culvert foundations, and provide earthwork
recommendations.
To accomplish its intended purposes, ihe 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 structures could change.
Once the final design is near completion (80- 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.

per cubic foot (pc�, 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 three borings drilled to depths of 20 to 30
feet at each culve�t location. The borings were drilled using truck mounted drill equipment at the
approximate locations shown on the Plan of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on
Plates A.4 through A.6, and keys to classifications and symbols used on the logs are provided on
Plates A.2 and A.3.
Undistu�bed sampfes of cohesive soils were obtained with nominai 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 penetrometef is exceeded, the
value is tabulated as 4.5+.
To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, 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 failing 24 inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each 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 respected test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log.
In hard materials (rock or rock-like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting
Rej70rt �10. 45S-O8-04 Ct� ENGINEERIVG, INC
2
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
of the boring log.
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, moisture content, strength, and unii weight
tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs and on Plate A.7, Summary of
Labo�atory Test Results.
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
culve�ts. The results of the swell tests are presented on Plate A.B.
The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with appficable ASTM or U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers procedures, or generally accepted praciice.
3,0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
3.1 Soil Conditions
Specific types and depths of subsurFace strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on
the boring logs in Appendix A. The gene�alized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings
is discussed below.
Asphalt pavement is present at ihe surface in Boring B-2 and is 7 inches in thickness_ Fill
materials are noted in Borings B-1 and B-2 to depths of 3 to 5 feet. The fills consisi of brown, dark
brown, and light brown sandy clays with gravel, calcareous nodules, and brick fragments. Natural
overburden soils consist of various brown, light brown, dark brown, and light grayish brown silty
clays and sandy silty clays. Light brown and brown shaly clays are present at 5 feet in Boring B-1,
containing limestone seams. The various overburden soils contain calcareous nodules and
Report No. 455-08-04 CMJ ENGINEERING, IvG
3
ironstone nodules with limestone fragments in selected reaches. Abundant limestone fragments
are noted from 3 to 5 feet in Boring B-3. The clayey soils are generally stiff to hard with pocket
penetrometer values of 1.5 to over 4.5 tsf. Soft to firm soils are noted below 19 feet in Boring B-3,
with pocket penetrometer values of 0.5 and 1.0 tsf. The Liquid Limit and�Plasticity fndex of the
tested materials ranged from 41 to 72 and 26 to 47, respectively. Tested dry unit weight and
unconfined compressive strength values varied from 98 to 118 pcf and 970 to 7,320 psf,
respectively.
Gray shale is next present in all borings_ The shale is present at a depth of 10 feet below existing
ground in Boring B-1 and at depths of 23 to 25 feet in Borings B-2 and B-3. The gray shale
contains very hard limestone seams, and is therefore variably soft to very hard (rock basis), with
Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) values ranging f�om 0.1 inch to 6.5 inches of penetration for 100
hammer blows.
The Atterberg Limits tests indicate the clays encountered at this site are moderately active to highly
active with respect to moisture induced volume changes. Active clays can expenence vo�ume
changes (expansion or contraction) with fluctuations in their moisture content. Results of free swell
testing indicate low to moderate potential for moisture induced volume change from present in-situ
moisiure conditions.
3.2 Ground-Water Observations
The borings were advanced using auger drilling methods in order to observe ground-water
seepage levels. Borings B-2 and B-3 encountered ground-watsr seepage at 13 to 14 feet during
drilling and water at 13 to 19 feet at drilling completion. Boring B-1 was dry at completion.
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
evideni at the time the borings were perf'ormed. The possibility of perched ground water within
granular, more permeable zones exists.
Due to the variable subsurface canditions long-term observations would be necessary to more
accurately evaluate the ground-water level. Such observations would require installation of
piezometers or observation wells, which are sealed to prevent the influence of surFace water.

4.0 �OX CULVERT RECOMMEIVDATIONS
4.1 General Foundation Conside�ations
Two independent design criteria must be satisfied in the selection of the type of foundation to
support the proposed structures. First, the ultimate bearing capacity, reduced by a sufficient factor
of safety, must not be exceeded by the bearing pressure transferred to the foundation bearing
strata. Second, due to consolidation or expansion of the underiying soiis during the operating life
of the structure, total and differential vertical movements must be within tolerable limits. The
recommended foundation alternatives for the proposed culverts are discussed below.
The moisture induced volume changes associated with the active to highly aciive clays present at
this site indicate that shallow or near surface footings could be subject to differential movements of
a potentially detrimental magnitude. In addition, potential for encountering ground-water during
construction is probable at Borings B-2 and 8-3. Based on the anticipated column loads a deep
foundation system transfe�ring column loads to the unweathered gray shale is considered the most
positive foundation system. Straight drilled reinforced concrete shafts penetrating the unweathered
gray shale offer a positive foundation system and are recommended. Given the relatively shallow
presence of gray shale in Boring B-1, consideration may be given to supporting the culvert atop a
shallow spread foundation at this location.
4.2 Straight Shaft Design Parameters (N.E. 28�' Street and Brennan Avenue)
4.2_1 Desiqn Criteria
Recommendations and parameters for the design of cast-in-place straight-shaft drilled piers are
outlined below. Specific recommendations fvr the construction and instaltation of the drilled piers
are included in the following section, and shall be followed during construction.
Bearing Stratum
Depth of 8earing Stratum:
Required Penetration/Oepth
Gray SHALE with LIMESTONE seams
Approximately 23 to 25 feet below existinq grades
All piers should penetrate into the bearing stratum a
minimum of 3 fest.
Allowable End Bearing Capacity: 12,000 psf
Allowable Skin Friction:
Report No. 456-OS-04
2,200 psf for compressive loads and 1,400 psf for
tensile loads. Neglect the required minimum penetration
of 3 feet in skin friction.
CI�LJ ENGiNEERING, I,�IG
5
The maximum ratio of overail shaft length to shaft diameter is 20:1. The above values contain a
safety factor of three (3). Drilled shafts should extend through any weathered shale zones and
bear only in competent, unweathered gray shale. A minimum pier diameter of 18 inches is
recommended.
For lateral shaft resistance, an allowable passive resistance of 2,000 psf may be considered in the
unweathered gray shale. An aliowable passive resistance of 500 psf may be considered in the
overiying clay soils. However, lateral shaft resistance in the overlying clays should be neglected
above a depth of 8 feet where pavement or slabs are not present.
It should be anticipated that ground-water seepage above the bearing stratum will be encountered
- during installation of the straight shafts. Temporary casing will be required for proper installation of
the shafts.
In order to develop full load carrying capacity in skin friction, adjacent shafts should have a
minirnum center-to-center spacing of 3 times the diameter of the larger shaft. Closer spacing may
require some reductions in skin friction and/or changes in installation sequences. Closely spaced
shafts shouid be examined on a case-by-case basis. As a general guide, the design skin friction
will vary linearly from the full value at a spacing of 3 diameters to 50 percent of the design value at
1.0 diameter.
Settlements for properfy installed and constructed straight shafts in the unweathered gray shale
with limestone seams will be primarily elastic and are estimated to be one inch or less.
4.2.2 Soi/ lnduced Uplift Loads
The drilled shafts could experience tensile loads as a result of post construction heave in the clay
soils. The magnitude of these loads varies with the shaft diameter, soil parameters, and
particularly the in-situ moisture levels at the time of construction_ For design purposes, an uplift
load of 1,200 psf ove� a shaft length of 10 feet is estimated. This load must be resisted by the
dead load on the shaft, continuous vertical reinforcing steel in the shaft, and a shaft adhesion
developed within the bearing strata. In order to aid in the structural design of the reinforcement,
minimum reinforcing should be equal to 0.5 percent of the shaft area.

4.2.3 Drilled Sl�aft Construction Considerations
Drilied pier construction should be monitored by a representative of the geotechnical engineer to
observe, among other things, the following items:
• Identification of bearing material
• Adequate penetration of the shaft excavation into the bearing layer
• The base and sides of the shaft excavation are clean of loose cuttings
• If seepage is encountered, whether it is of sufficient amount to require the use of temporary
steel casing_ If casing is needed it is impo�tant that the field representative observe that a
high head of plastic concrete is maintained within the casing at all times during their
extraction to prevent the inflow of water. Based on ground-water conditions encountered
during field operations for this study, it should be anticipated that temporary casing will be
required for proper installation of some shafts.
Precautions should be taken during the placement of reinforcing steel and concrete to prevent
loose, excavated soil from falling into the excavation. Concrete should be placed as soon as
practica( after completion of the drilling, cleaning, and observation_ Excavation for a drilled pier
should be filled with concrete before the end of the workday, or sooner if required to prevent
deterioratian of the bearing material. Prolonged exposure or inundation of the bearing surface with
water will result in changes in strength and compressibility characteristics. If delays occur, the
drilled pier excavation should be deepened as necessary and cfeaned, in order to provide a fresh
bearing surface.
Excavations for the shafts should be maintained in the dry. It should be anticipated that ground-
water seepage will be encountered during shaft installation of all straight shafts and that temporary
casing will be required for all straight shafts for proper shaft installation. The casing should be
seated below the zone of seepage with all water and most loose material removed prior to
beginning the design penetration. Care must then be taken that a sufficient head of plastic
concrete is maintained within the casing during extraction.
The concrete should have a slump of 6 inches plus or minus 1 inch. The concrete should be
placed in a manner to prevent the concrete from striking the reinforcing cage or the sides of the
excavation. Concrete should be tremied to the bottom of the excavation to control the maximum
free fall of the plastic concrete to less than 10 feet, or focus concrete in the middle of the
reinforcing cage to prevent segregation.
Report No. 455-08-04
C.12J ENGINEERING, ING

A drilling rig of sufFicient size and weight will be necessary for driliing and/or coring through the
hard layers to reach the desired bearing stratum and achieve the required penetration. It should
be anticipated that hard to very hard zones can be present in the tan limestone. The hard to very
hard layers can complicate pier drilling operations.
In addition to the above guidelines, the specifications from the Association of Drilled Shaft
Contractors Inc. "Standards and Specifications for the Foundation Drilling Industry" as Revised
1999 or other recog�ized specifications for proper installation of drilled shaft foundation systems
should be followed.
4.3 Mat Type Foundation (Dewey Street)
Reinforced concrete mat type foundations may be used to support structural loads of the culvert at
this location. Consideration may a(so be given to utilizing straight drilled reinforced concrete shafts
penetrating the gray shale as detai(ed in Section 4.2. Individual footings (square, round or
rectangular) should be situated at a minimum depth of 2 feet within the gray shale, and may be
proportioned using an allowable soil bearing capacity of 8,400 pounds per square foot (psfl while
continuous footings at the same deptt� may utilize an allowable bearing pressure of 6,OQ0 psf. The
above design values contain a safety factor of 3_ These bearing values assume that the
excavation base is dry and little to no disturbance of the bearing materials is allowed.
Individual footings should maintain a minimum width of 3 feet and continuous footings should
maintain a minimum width of 18 inches, but must be wider as required, based upon allowable
bearing capacities given above. Circular, auger-excavated footings may be considered, in order to
expedite construction. Continuous spread foundations are defined as those having a length to
width ratio greater than 10. The base of all excavated footings shall be inspected by a
geotechnical engineer or geoiechnician under his or her supervision to assure that the bottom is
firm, level and free of loose soil material and/or debris.
4.4 Mat Type Foundation Construction
Mat type foundation construction should be monitored by a representative of the geotechnical
engineer to observe, among other things, the following items:
2eport No. 455-08-04
CMj E, rcry cEAi;vc, I, rc
�
• identification of bearing materials
a Adequate penetration of the foundation excavation into the bearing layer
• The base and sides of the excavation are clean of loose cuttings
• When seepage is encountered, whether it is of sufficient amount to require the use of
excavation dewatering methods
Precautions should be taken during the placement of reinforcing steei and concrete to prevent
ioose, excavated soil from falling into the excavation. Concrete should be placed as soon as
practica! afte� completion of the excavating, cleaning, reinforcing steel placement and observaiion.
Excavation for a mat type foundation shouid be filled with concrete before the end of the workday,
or sooner if required, to prevent deterioration of the bearing material. Prolonged exposure or
inundation of the bearing surtace with water will result in changed in strength and compressibility
characteristics. If delays occur, the excavation should be deepened as necessary and cleaned, in
order to provide a fresh bearing surface. If more than 24 hours of exposure of the bearing surface
is anticipated in the excavations, a"mud slab" should be used to protect the bearing surfaces. If a
mud slab is used, the foundation excavations should initially be over-excavated by approximately 4
inches and a lean concrete mud slab of approximately 4 inches in thickness should be placed in
the bottom of the excavations immediately following exposure of the bearing surface by
excavation. The mud slab will protect the bearing surface, maintain more uniform moisture in the
subgrade, facilitate dewatering of excavations if required, and provide a working surface for the
placement of formwork and reinforcing steel_
The concrete should be placed in a manner that will prevent the concrete from striking the
reinforcing steel or the sides of the excavation in a manner that would cause segregation of the
concrete.
4.5 �ateral Earth Pressures
4.5.1 General
The below grade walls must be designed for lateral pressures including, but not necessarily limited
to, earth, water, surcharge, swelling, and vibration. In addition; the lateral pressures will be
influenced by whether the backfill is drained or undrained, and above or below the ground-water
tabfe.
Report iVo. 45b-O8-04
CMJ ENGINEERING, INC.
9
4.5.2 EQuivalent Fluid Pressures
Laterai earth pressures on below grade and retaining walls wiii depend on a variety of factors,
- including the type of soils behind the wail, the condition of the soils, and the drainage conditions
behind the wali. Recommended lateral earth pressures expressed as equivalent fluid p�essures,
per foot of wall height, are presented in Table 4.5.2-1 for a wall with a level backfill behind the top
of the wall. The equivalent fluid pressure for an undrained condition should be used if a drainage
system is not present to remove water trapped in the backfill and behind the wall. Pressures are
provided for at-rest and active earth pressure conditions. Rigid walls are not anticipated to develop
enough movement to mobilize active earth pressures. In order to allow for an active condition the
top of the wall(s) must deflect on the order of 0.4 perce�t.
For the select flll or free draining granula� backfill, these values assume that a"full" wedge of the
material is p�esent behind the wall. The wedge is defined where the wall backfill limits extend
outward at least 2 feet from the base of the wall and then upward on a 1 H:2V slope. For narrower
backfill widths of granular or select fill soils, the equivalent fluid pressures for the on-site soils
should be used.

4.5.3 Additional Laterat Pressures
The lacation and magnitude of permanent surcharge loads (if present) should be determined, and
the additiona( pressure generated by these loads such as the weight of construction equipment
and vehicular loads that are used at the time the structures are being built must also be considered
in the design. The effect of this or any other surcharge loading may be accounted for by adding an
additional uniform load to the full depth of the side walls equivalent to one-half of the expected
vertical surcharge intensity for select backfill materials, or equal to the fulf vertical surcharge
ft2port No. 45S-O8-04 CPdJ ENGINEER[NG, :NC

intensity for clay backfill. The equivalent fluid pressures, given here, do not include a safety factor.
Analysis of surcharge loads (if any) should be performed on a case-by-case basis. This is not
included in the scope of this study. These services can be provided as additional services upon
request.
4.6 Wall Backfill Material Requirements
Granular Wall Backfill: All free draining granular wall backfill maierial should be a crushed stone,
sand/gravel mixture, or sand/cn�shed stone mixture. The material should have less than 3 percent
passing the No_ 200 sieve and less than 30 percent passing the No. 40 sieve. The minus No. 40
sieve material should be non-plastic. Granular wall backfill should not be water jetted during
installation.
Select Fill Behind Walls: All wal! select backfill should consist of clayey sand and/or sandy clay
material with a plasticity index of 16 or less, with a liquid limit not exceeding 35. The select fi11
should be placed in maximum 8-inch lifts and compacted to between 9� and 100 percent of
Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698) within a moisture range of plus to minus 3 percentage
points of the optimum moisture. Compaction within five feet of the walls should be accomplished
using hand compaction equipment and should be compacted between 90 and 95 percent of the
Standard Proctor Density.
On-Site Soil Backfill: For wail backfill areas with site-excavated materials or similar imported
materials, all oversized fragments larger than four inches in maximum dimension should be
removed from the backfill materials prior to placement. The backfill should be free of a{I organic
and deleterious materials, and should be placed in maximum 8-inch compacted lifts at a minimum
of 95 percent of Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698) within a moisture range of plus to minus
3 percentage points of optimum moisture. Compaction within five feet of the wa!!s should be
accomplished using hand compaction equipment, and should be beiween 90 and 95 percent of the
Standard Proctor Density.
4.7 �elow-Grade Drainage Requirements
The design recommendations presented above assume hydrostatic pressure will not develop
behind the retaining wall. In order to achieve the "above water table" condition for laferal earth
pressure for low-perrrieability walls (concrete, masonry, etc.), a vertical drainage blanket or
Qeport No. 45S-O8-04 CMj ENGIVEExING, I�G
11
geocomposite drainage member must be instailed adjacent to the wail on the backfill side. In
conjunction with below grade wails associated with the structure a collection pipe situated a
minimum of 12 inches below the bottom of the slab is recommended. The drainage must be
connected ta an outlet drain at the base of the wall, or to the sump/pump system. Drainage could
be provided using a collector pipe or weep holes near the base of the retaining wall. Drains should
be properly filtered to minimize the potential for erosion through these d�ains, and /o� the plugging
of drain lines. Design or specific recommendations for drainage members is beyond the scope for
this study. These services can be provided as an additional service upon request. In order to
achieve the "drained" condition, the entire backfiil material must be free draining, or the backfill-wall
geometry must be such that the backfill will not become saturated from rainfall, ground water,
adjacent water courses, or other sources.
5.0 EARTHWORK
5.1 Site Preparation
The subgrade should be firm and able to support the construction equipment without displacement.
Soft or yielding subgrade should be corrected and made stable before construction proceeds. The
subgrade should be proof rolled to detect soft spots, which if exist, should be excavated to provide
a firm and otherwise suitable subgrade. Proof rolling should be performed using a heavy
pneumatic tired roller, loaded dump truck, or similar piece of equipment. The proof rolling
operations should be observed by the project geotechnical engineer or his/her representative.
5.2 Excavation Considerations
The side slopes of excavations through the overburden soils should be made in such a manner to
provide for their stability during construction. Existing structures, pipelines or other facilities, which
are constructed prior to or during the currently proposed construction and which require
excavation, should be protected from loss of end bearing or lateral support.
Temporary construction slopes and/or permanent embankment slopes should be protected from
surFace runoff water. Site grading should be designed to allow drainage at planned areas where
erosion protection is provided, instead ofi allowing surFace water to flow down unpratected slopes.
It is anticipated that ground water may be present in some of the excavations, as previously
discussed.
Report No. 456-tJ8-04
CMJ E;vct�CExiVc, IvC.
12
Trench safety recommendations are beyond the scope of this report. The contractor must comply
with all applicable safety regulatio�s concerning trench safety and excavations including, but not
limited to, OSHA regulations.
5.3 Placement and Compaction
Fill material should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 8 inches in uncompacted thickness. The
uncompacted lift thickness should be reduced to 4 inches for structure backfill zones requiring
hand-operated power compactors or small self-propelled compactors. The fill material should be
uniform with respect to material type and moisture content. Clods and chunks of material should
be broken down and the fill material mixed by disking, blading or plowing, as necessary, so that a
material of uniform moisture and density is obtained for each lift. Water required for sprinkling to
bring the fill material to the proper moisture content should be applied evenly through each layer.
The fill material should be compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry density
determined by the Standard Proctor test, ASTM D 698. In conjunction with the compacting
operation, the �II material st�ould be brought to the proper moisture content. The moisture content
for general earth fill should range from 2 percentage points betow optimum to 5 percentage points
above optimum (-2 to +5). These ranges of moisture contents are given as maximum
recommended ranges. For some soils and under some conditions, ihe contractor may have to
maintain a more narrow range of moisture content {within the recommended range) in order to
consistently achieve the recommended density.
Field density tests should be taken as each lift of fill material is placed. As a guide, one field
densty test per lift for each 5,000 square feet of compacted area is recommended. For small areas
or critical areas the frequency of testing may need to be increased to one test per 2,500 square
feet_ A minimum of 2 tests per lift should be required. The earthwork operations should be
observed and tested on a continuing basis by an experienced geotechnician working in conjunction
with the project geotechnical engineer.
Each lift should be compacted, tested, and approved be#ore another lift is added. The purpose of
the field density tests is to provide some indication that uniform and adequate compaction is being
obtained_ The actual quality of the fill, as compacted, should be the responsibility of the contractor
and satisfactory results from the tests should not be considered as a guarantee of the quality of the
contractor's filling operations.

5.4 Erosion and Sediment Control
All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and
all permanent stopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with
permanent erosion and sediment control fiacilities. 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
informatian 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 any additional
earthwork and perform materials evatuation 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 additianal tests if required and, when necessary, to
recommend altemative solutions to unanticipated conditions.
It is proposed that construction phase observation and materials observation 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
contraet directly with the project geotechnical engineer. This rssults in a clear, direct line of
communication befinreen the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical
ergineer.
7.0 REP�RT CLOSURE
- The borings for this study were selected and staked by CMJ Engineering, Inc. using approximate
taping methods from existing topographic features. The locations and e(evations 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 ihat are
Repoit P1o. 45&-08-04 Ci�iJ ENGINEERING, INC.

believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these
boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil ciassification 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 generaliy classify each stratum. Therefore, it
should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates
of class�cations 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 ihe course of the field work. ln 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 repo�t 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, iest 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
must b� advis�d promptly so that �re can review these conditions anri �econsider o�r
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
R2po�t No. 45S-C8-04 CMJ ENGNcEAING, ING

our report to determine the appiicability of the conciusions and recommendations, considering the
changed conditions andior time lapse.
Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the plans and
specifications for this pa�ticular project that pe►tain to earthwork as a means to determine whether
the plans and spec�cations are consistent with the recommendations contained in this repo�t. In
addition, we are available to obsenre construction, particularly the compaction of structural fill, or
backfill 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 ihe
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. The scope of services also did not include any
assessment of the site for suitability for the proposed construction or use, related to items o�
conditions other than those specificatly addressed in this report.
This report has been prepared for use in develaping an overall design concept. Paragraphs,
statements, test results, boring logs, diagrams, etc. should not be taken out of context, nor utilized
without a knowiedge and awareness of their intent within the overati concept of this repo�k. 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 contracto�.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the GM Enterprises and Teague Nall and
Perkins, Inc. for specific application to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in
connection with the se�-vices 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.

Regulation 13 CFR 121. Firms certified as a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) also meet small
business enterprise requirements.
Additionally, the City will accept firms certified as SBEs by Federal agencies or other certifying agencies that
the City may deem appropriate and accepted by the City of Fort Worth. The City, at its discretion may elect to
not accept a SBE certification and/or its assertion that it meets all certification requirements; If it is
determined to be in the best interest of the City.
Further, the City reserves the right to request SBEs, seeking to do business with the City, allow an audit and/or
examination of any books, records and files held by the SBE that will substantiate its SBE certification.
Any intentional and/or knowing misrepresentation of facts will be grounds for terminating any active contracts
and/or debarment from City work for a period of not less than three (3) years and for initiating action under
Federal, State or Local laws concerning false statements.
If hauling services are utilized, the prime will be given credit as long as the SBE listed owns and operates
at least one fully licensed and operational truck to be used on the contract. The SBE may lease trucks from
another SBE firm, including SBE owner-operators, and receive full SBE credit. The SBE may lease trucks
from non-SBEs, including owner-operators, but will only receive credit for the fees and commissions earned
by the SBE as outlined in the lease agreement.
