This law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required too underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the nonresident's principal place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or nonresident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A. Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State law. A copy of the Statute is attached. Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders. B.

No 10/20/08 SC-14 .w PART D - SPECIAL, CONDITIONS All required paving cuts shall be made with a concrete saw in a true and straight line on both sides of the trench, a minimum of twelve (12) inches outside the trench walls. The trench shall be backfilled and the top nine (9) inches shall be filled with required materials as shown on paving two details, compacted and level with the finished street surface. This finished grade shall be maintained in a serviceable condition until the paving has been replaced. All residential driveways shall be accessible at night and over weekends. It has been determined by the Transportation and Public Works Department that the strip of existing HMAC pavement between the existing gutter and the edge of the trench pavement repair will not hold up if such strip of existing pavement is two (2) feet or less in width. Therefore, at the locations in the project where the trench wall is three (3) feet or less from the lip of the existing gutter, the Contractor shall be required to remove the existing paving to such gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of twelve (12) inches outside the trench wall nearest the center of the street to the gutter line. The pavement shall be replaced within a maximum of five (5) working days, providing job placement conditions will permit repaving. If paving conditions are not suitable for repaving, in the opinion of the Owner, the repaving shall be done at the earliest possible date. A permit must be obtained from the Construction Services Section by the Contractor in conformance with Ordinance No. 3449 and/or Ordinance No. 792 to make utility cuts in the street.

It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth to comply with the requirements of the Asbestos National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) found at 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M. This specification will establish procedures to be used by all Excavators in the removal and disposal of asbestos cement pipe (ACP) in compliance with NESHAP. Nothing in this specification shall be construed to void any provision of a contract or other law, ordinance, regulation or policy whose requirements are more stringent. wo B. ACP is defined under NESHAP as a Category II, non -friable material in its intact state but which may become friable upon removal, demolition and/or disposal. Consequently, if the removal/ disposal process renders the ACP friable, it is regulated under the disposal requirements of 40 CFR 61.150. A NESHAP notification must be filed with the Texas Department of Health. The notification must be filed at least ten days prior to removal of the material. If it remains in its non - friable state, as defined by the NESHAP, it can be disposed as a conventional construction waste. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines friable as material, when dry, which may be crumbled, pulverized or reduced to powder by hand pressures. C. The Generator of the hazardous material is responsible for the identification and proper handling, transportation, and disposal of the material_ Therefore, it is the policy of the City of Fort Worth that the Excavator is the Generator regardless of whether the pipe is friable .w or not. D. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth that all ACP shall be removed in such careful and prudent manner that it remains intact and does not become friable. The Excavator is responsible to employ those means, methods, techniques and sequences to ensure this result. E. Compliance with all aspects of worker safety and health regulations including but not limited to the OSHA Asbestos Standard is the responsibility of the Excavator. The City of Fort Worth assumes no responsibility for compliance programs, which are the responsibility of the Excavator. (Copy of forms attached) F. The removal and disposal of ACP shall be subsidiary to the cost of installing the new pipe unless otherwise stated or indicated on the project plans or contract documents. -- D-68 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION (FOR DISTURBED AREAS GREATER THAN 1 ACRE) PERMIT: As defined by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) regulations, a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) General Construction Permit is required for all construction activities that result in the disturbance of one to five acres (Small Construction Activity) or five or more acres of total land (Large Construction Activity).

B. CONSTRUCTION REQUIRMENTS: The Engineer has the authority to define erodible earth and the authority to limit the surface are of erodible -earth material exposed by preparing right-of-way, clearing and grubbing, the surface area of erodible -earth material exposed by excavation, borrow and to direct the CONTRACTOR to provide temporary pollution -control measures to prevent contamination of adjacent streams, other water course, lakes, ponds or other areas of water impoundment. Such work may involve the construction of temporary berms, dikes, dams, sediment basins, slope drains and use of temporary mulches, mats, seeding or other control devices or methods directed by the Engineer as necessary to' control soil erosion. Temporary pollution - control measures shall be used to prevent or correct erosion that may develop during construction prior to installation of permanent pollution control features, but are not associated with permanent control features on the project. The Engineer will limit the area of preparing right-of-way, clearing and grubbing, excavation and borrow to be proportional to the CONTRACTOR'S capability and progress in keeping the finish grading, mulching, seeding, and other such permanent pollution -control measures current in accordance with the accepted schedule. Should seasonal conditions make such limitations unrealistic, temporary soil -erosion -control measures shall be performed as directed by the Engineer.Waste or disposal areas and construction roads shall be located and constructed in a manner that will minimize the amount of sediment entering streams. .. Frequent fordings of live streams will not be permitted; therefore, temporary bridges or other structures shall be used wherever an appreciable number of stream crossing are necessary. Unless otherwise approved in writing by the Engineer, mechanized equipment shall not be operated in live streams. sm 2. When work areas or material sources are located in or adjacent to live streams, such areas shall be separated from the stream by a dike or other barrier to keep sediment from entering a flowing stream. Care shall be .. taken during the construction and removal of such barriers to minimize the muddying of a stream. 3. All waterways shall be cleared as soon as practicable of false work, piling, debris or other obstructions placed during construction operations that are not part of the finished work. 4. The Contractor shall take sufficient precautions to prevent pollution of streams, lakes and reservoirs with fuels, oils, bitumens, calcium chloride or other harmful materials. He shall conduct and schedule his operations so as to avoid or minimize siltation of streams, lakes and reservoirs and to avoid interference with movement of migratory fish. C. SUBMITTAL: Prior to the start of the applicable construction, the Contractor shall submit for approval his schedules for accomplishment of soil -erosion -control work and his plan to keep the area of erodible -earth material to a minimum. He shall also submit for acceptance his proposed method of soil -erosion control on construction and haul roads and material sources and his plan for disposal of waste materials. No work shall 'r 06/20/08 SP-26 x be started until the soil -erosion control schedules and methods of operations have been reviewed and approved by the Engineer.

Overly dense or dry backfill can swell and create a mound along the completed trench line. Loose or wet backfill can settle and form a depression along the completed trench line. Distress to overlying structures, pavements, etc. is likely if heaving or settlement occurs. On -site soil fill material is recommended for trench-backfill. Care should be taken not to use free draining granular material, to prevent the backfilled trench from becoming a french drain and piping surface or subsurface water beneath structures, pipelines, or pavements. If a higher class bedding material is required for the pipelines, a lean concrete bedding will limit water intrusion into the trench and will not require compaction after placement. The soil backfill should be placed in approximately 4- to 6- inch loose lifts. The density and moisture content should be as recommended for fill in Section 8.2, Placement and Compaction, of this report. A minimum of one field density test should be taken per lift for each 150 linear feet of trench, with a minimum of 2 tests per lift. 8.4 Excavation These soils can be excavated using conventional earthwork equipment. The side slopes of w 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 L' J surface runoff water. Site grading should be designed to allow drainage at planned areas where r erosion protection is provided, instead of allowing surface water to flow down unprotected slopes. Excavations should be sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910), Subpart P, regarding trench excavations greater than 5 feet in depth. 8.5 Acceptance of Imported Fill Any soil imported from off -site sources should be tested for compliance with the recommendations for the particular application and approved by the project geotechnical engineer prior to the Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 1K .R materials being used. The owner should also require the contractor to obtain a written, notarized certification from the landowner of each proposed off -site soil borrow source stating that to the best of the landowner's knowledge and belief there has never been contamination of the borrow source site with hazardous or toxic materials. The certification should be furnished to the owner prior to ow proceeding to furnish soils to the site_ Soil materials derived from the excavation of underground petroleum storage tanks should not be used as fill on this project. 8.6 Soil Corrosion Potential Specific testing for soil corrosion potential was not included in the scope of this study. However, based upon past experience on other projects in the vicinity, the soils at this site may be corrosive. Standard construction practices for protecting metal pipe and similar facilities in contact with these soils should be used. 8.7 Erosion and Sediment Control All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and all permanent slopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with permanent erosion and sediment control facilities. All applicable ordinances and codes regarding erosion and sediment control should be followed. 8.8 Utilities 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 on -site soils, rather than granular materials. A positive cut-off at the building line is recommended to help prevent water from migrating in the utility trench backfill. Trench excavations should be sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910), Subpart P, regarding trench excavations greater than 5 feet in depth. 9.000NSTRUCTION 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 Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. MW 13 ► assume the subsurface conditions are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings. However, quite often during construction anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed. Therefore, it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to observe earthwork and foundation installation and perform materials evaluation during the construction phase of the project. This enables the geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily available to evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to recommend alternative solutions to unanticipated conditions. Until these construction phase services are performed by the project geotechnical engineer, the recommendations contained in this report on such items as final foundation bearing elevations, proper soil moisture condition, and other such subsurface related recommendations should be considered as preliminary. It is proposed that construction phase observation and materials testing commence by the project geotechnical engineer at the outset of the project. Experience has shown that the most suitable method for procuring these services is for the owner or the owner's design engineers to contract directly with the project geotechnical engineer. This results in a clear, direct line of communication between the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer. 10.0 REPORT CLOSURE The boring logs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soil encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the interface between these materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests were also performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests, along with visual -manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of classifications for those .r 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 T locations and times. With regard to ground -water conditions, this report presents data on ground -water levels as they were observed during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. - 14 am 1.0INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Description This report presents the results of a geotechnical engineering study for the reconstruction of the •• Robin -Denver storm drain in Fort Worth, Texas. The project, as currently planned, will consist of investigating subsurface conditions at two locations where junction boxes will be installed. One location is planned near 1807 Robin Avenue. The second location is an alley between Denver and Gould Avenue, south of Park Street. The approximate locations of the exploration borings are wo illustrated on Plate A. 1, Plan of Borings. we 1.2 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurface MW conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered and develop recommendations for the type or types of foundations suitable for the project. To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted in the following phases: (1) drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to determine pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. .. The design is currently in progress. Once the final design is near completion (80-percent to 90- percent stage), it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the construction documents pertaining to the geotechnical recommendations, as a means to determine that our recommendations have been interpreted as intended. wo 1.3 Report Format The text of the report is contained in Sections 1 through 10. All plates and large tables are contained in Appendix A. The alpha -numeric plate and table numbers identify the appendix in which they appear. Small tables of less than one page in length may appear in the body of the text and are numbered according to the section in which they occur. Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC M 1 Units used in the report are based on the English system and may include tons per square foot (tsf), kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds), kips per square foot (ksf), pounds per square foot (psf), pounds per cubic foot (pcf), and pounds per square inch (psi). 2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING 2.1 Field Exploration Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by two (2) vertical soil borings drilled to t, depths of 20 feet below existing grade. The planned location for Boring B-2 had abundant overhead electrical lines preventing safe drilling; therefore, this boring was revised to Park Street, r approximately 80 feet northeast of the proposed junction box. The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations shown on the Plan of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on Plates AA and A.5 and keys to classifications and symbols used on the logs are provided on Plates A.2 and A.3. Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin -walled (Shelby) tube samplers at the locations shown on the logs of borings. The Shelby tube sampler consists of a thin -walled steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the soil by the hydraulic pulldown of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to limit loss of moisture. The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand penetrometer. In this test a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the relatively undisturbed sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25 inch. The results of these tests, in tsf, are tabulated at w respective sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the value is tabulated as 4.5+. To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, a modified version of the Texas Cone Penetration test was performed at selected locations. Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) Test Method Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3-inch diameter cone with a 170-pound hammer freely falling 24 inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each .. blow. This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. This results in 350 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. In relatively soft materials, the Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC .� 2 l , penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is tabulated at respective test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock or rock -like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for the first and second 50 blows, a total of 100 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows is recorded at the respective testing depths on the boring logs. Ground -water observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the upper right of the boring logs. Upon completion of the borings, the bore holes were backfilled with soil cuttings and plugged at the surface with asphalt. 2.2 Laboratory Testing Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the borings. In addition to the classification tests (liquid limits and plastic limits), moisture content, unit weight, and unconfined compressive strength tests were performed. Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content, unit weight, and unconfined compressive strength tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs. The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM procedures, or generally accepted practice. 3.1 Soil Conditions 3.OSUBSURFACE CONDITIONS �- Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphies encountered in the .. borings are discussed below. Note that depths on the borings refer to the depth from the existing grade or ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate. Asphalt pavement from 5 to 9 inches in thickness was present at the boring locations. The asphalt surface was underlain by 2 to 4 inches of gravel base. Possible fill material was encountered _ beneath the pavement in Boring B-1 to a depth of 9 feet and consists of dark brown, brown, and light brown clays with gravel, limestone fragments, and calcareous nodules. Natural overburden soils consist of dark brown and light brown silty clays and clays containing calcareous nodules and Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC a 3 zones of ironstone nodules. Light brown and gray shaly clays were next present within the borings at depths ranging from 9 to 13.5 feet. Limestone seams were encountered within the shaly clays below 17-foot depths. The various clays encountered in the borings had tested Liquid Limits (LL) of 31 and 53 with Plasticity Indices (PI) of 9 and 37, and are classified as CL and CH by the USCS ti Classification System. The various clays were generally firm to hard (soil basis) in consistency with pocket penetrometer readings of 1.0 to over 4.5 tsf. Tested unit weight values were 106 to 119 pcf and tested unconfined compressive strengths were 5,660 and 7,740 psf. The Atterberg Limits tests indicate the clays encountered at this site are highly active with respect to moisture induced volume changes. Active clays can experience volume changes (expansion or contraction) with fluctuations in their moisture content. 3.2 Ground -Water Observations The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground -water seepage during drilling. Ground -water seepage was not encountered during drilling and the borings were dry at completion of drilling operations. Although ground water was not encountered in the borings, it should be recognized that ground -water conditions vary with fluctuations in rainfall. 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 evident at the time the borings were performed. During wet periods of the year seepage can occur in the more permeable zones. The possibility of ground -water level fluctuations should be considered when developing the design and construction plans for the project. Water traveling through the soil (subsurface water) is often unpredictable. This could be due to M� seasonal changes in ground water and due to the unpredictable nature of ground -water paths. Therefore, it is necessary during construction for the contractor to be observant for ground -water seepage in excavations in order to assess the situation and take appropriate action. 4.0 FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 General Foundation Considerations Two independent design criteria must be satisfied in the selection of the type of foundation to support the proposed structure. First, the ultimate bearing capacity, reduced by a sufficient factor Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC ,,,, 4 of safety, must not be exceeded by the bearing pressure transferred to the foundation soils. Second, due to consolidation or expansion of the underlying soils during the operating life of the structure, total and differential vertical movements must be within tolerable limits. A stiffened monolithically placed mat/slab foundation may be considered to support the proposed below -grade m, meter box. The recommended foundation -for the proposed structure is discussed below. 4.2 Spread Foundations 4.2.1 Meter Box Foundation Desiqn Criteria A stiffened monolithically placed mat/slab foundation may be used at this site to support the proposed junction boxes. It is understood that the boxes are to be situated approximately 10 feet below existing grade. The foundation should be designed by a structural engineer familiar with stiffened slabs subject to differential movement. The meter box mat/slab may be designed based on an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2.0 ksf or less within the soils at depths of 10 feet or greater. Mat design for the proposed meter box should incorporate the potential for hydrostatic uplift effects of a shallow water table. Depending on conditions encountered, excavation for the meter box may need to incorporate dewatering to keep the excavation free of excess water. In addition, the water table should be lowered to a depth of 2 feet below the proposed excavation. Foundations proportioned for these values are estimated to experience a total settlement of 1 inch ►N or less, and a differential settlement of approximately 'h inch or less, after construction. Depending on the time of year and the general weather conditions, the excavation and placement of the mat/slab foundation may be in a saturated soil condition. If the construction occurs in a wet condition, issues of dewatering of excavations, strength/stability of side slopes, and disturbance of bearing materials become important. W. It should be noted that some movement should be anticipated within the foundation system, if .. placed on soil. Report No. 117-06-67 9 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 4.2.2 Spread/Mat Foundation Construction Spread foundation 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 foundation excavation into the bearing layer • The base and sides of the excavation are clean of loose cuttings • If 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 steel and concrete to prevent loose, excavated soil from falling into the excavation. Concrete should be placed as soon as practical after completion of the excavating, cleaning, reinforcing steel placement and observation. Excavation for a spread foundation should 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 surface with water will result in changes 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 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 i am concrete. Report No. 117-06-67 �' 6 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 5.0BELOW GRADE WALL RECOMMENDATIONS 5.1 Lateral Earth Pressure 5.1.1 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 table. 5.1.2 Equivalent Fluid Pressures Lateral earth pressures on the below -grade walls will depend on a variety of factors, including the Y type of soils behind the wall, the condition of the soils, and the drainage conditions behind the wall. Recommended lateral earth pressures expressed as equivalent fluid pressures, per foot of wall height, are presented in Table 5.1.2-1 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. A ground -water level at the finished grade elevation should be used for design of the below grade structures. Pressures are provided for at -rest earth pressure conditions. In order to allow for an active condition the top of the wall(s) must deflect on the order of 0.4 percent. TABLE 5.1.2-1 - Lateral Earth Pressures l ' At -Rest Equivalent Fluid Pressure Backfill Material (pcf) Drained Undrained Excavated on -site clay or clay fill 100 110 material Select fill or on -site soils meeting 65 90 material specifications Free draining granular backfill 50 90 material " For the select fill or free draining granular backfill, these values assume that a "full' wedge of the material is present 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 a Report No. 117-06-67 7 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC In backfill widths of granular or select fill soils, the equivalent fluid pressures for the on -site soils should be used. 5.1.3 Additional Lateral Pressures The Location and magnitude of permanent surcharge loads (if present) should be determined, and the additional 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 full vertical surcharge 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. 5.1.4 Wall Backfill Material Requirements Excavated On -Site Clay: For wall 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 all 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 ad 3 percentage points of optimum moisture. Compaction within five feet of the walls should be accomplished using hand compaction equipment, and should be between 90 and 95 percent of the Standard Proctor density. Select Fill: All wall 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 fill should be placed in •• maximum 8-inch lifts and compacted to between 95 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. Free Draining Granular Backfill: All free draining granular wall backfill material should be a crushed stone, sand/gravel mixture, or sand/crushed stone mixture. The material should have less than 3 Report No. 117-06-67 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. .. 8 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. M 5.1.5 Buovancv Effects No Buoyant effects must be considered. Unless a permanent drainage system is provided, the below - grade structures should be designed to withstand full hydrostatic pressure below the ground -water table. We recommend a water table at the surface be assumed for these calculations. For buoyancy calculations, the unit weight of submerged soils can be assumed as 65 pcf. 6.0 CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS The excavations should be performed in accordance with OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1919), Subpart P. For excavations less than 5 feet deep through the various clays, it is expected that near vertical excavation walls will be possible. However, in the case that excavations occur through soft clays, granular soils, non -compacted fill, or submerged soils, it will be necessary to either slope the excavation sidewalls or provide temporary bracing to control excavation wall instability. In addition, for excavations deeper than 5 feet, the excavation sidewalls must be sloped or temporary bracing must be provided, regardless of the soil conditions encountered. If sufficient clearance is not available, then a braced excavation will most likely be required. The appropriate bracing system or shield should be selected by the contractor, and should be configured to withstand the expected lateral earth pressures, and hydrostatic pressures if ground water is present. Shoring should be used for excavation to support open cuts located where existing utilities are within a zone extending from the base of the excavation upward at a 1H:1V slope. Surcharge loads, such as those resulting from excavation spoils and/or equipment, should be placed no closer than two feet from the crest of the slope, in accordance with OSHA regulations. All vehicle traffic should be prohibited from at least five feet of the crest of the excavation. Excavations should take into account any utilities to avoid undermining these features. The following guidelines are presented to aid in the development of the excavation plans: Report No. 117-06-67 M 9 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. t 1. Surface areas behind the crest of the excavations should be graded so that surface water does not pond within 15 feet of the crest, nor drain into the excavation. 2. Heavy material stockpiles should not be placed near the crest of slopes. Similarly, heavy construction equipment should not pass over or be parked within 5 feet of the 464 crest. - 3. The crest of slopes should be continually monitored for evidence of movement or potential problems. Freestanding slopes will become less stable than influenced by ground water or saturation by rain. 7.ODESIGN CONSIDERATIONS - 7.1 Site Drainage An important feature of the project is to provide positive drainage away from the proposed structures. If water is permitted to stand next to or below the structures, excessive soil movements (heave) can occur. A well -designed site drainage plan is of utmost importance and surface drainage should be .. provided during construction and maintained throughout the life of the structures. Joints next to the structure should be sealed with a flexible joint sealer to prevent infiltration of surface water. Proper maintenance should include periodic inspection for open joints and cracks and resealing as necessary. It is recommended that any step-down, below grade walls, etc. be provided with suitable dewatering devices to reduce accumulated water. 8.0 EARTHWORK 8.1 Site Preparation and Material Requirements 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. Report No. 117-06-67 CNU ENGINEERING, INC =0 10 The on -site soils are suitable for use in site grading. Imported fill material should be clean soil with a Liquid Limit less than 55 and no rock greater than 4 inches in maximum dimension. The fill materials should be free of vegetation and debris. 8.2 Placement and Compaction Fill material should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 8 inches in uncompacted thickness. The so 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 density ranging from 95 to 100 percent of maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D 698, Standard Proctor. In conjunction with the compacting operation, the fill material should be brought to the proper moisture content. The moisture content for general earth fill should range from 2 percentage points below 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, the 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 density 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 before 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. Report No_ 117-06-67 11 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. .. made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the report and on the boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground -water table can occur with passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature and other factors. Also, this report does not include quantitative information on rates of flow of ground water into excavations, on .. pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering excavations. Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and cannot be fully predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected conditions frequently require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly designed and constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is r/ 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 be advised promptly so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure locations, structural loads or finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time lapse. so Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the plans and specifications for this particular project that pertain to earthwork and foundations as a means to determine whether the plans and specifications are consistent with the recommendations contained in this report.
