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. (Check One Box and complete, as applicable) 0 The principal place of business of our company is in the State of a. Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by state law. A copy of the statute is attached. b . Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders. ~ The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is in the State of Texas.

DA-2 PIPELINE REHABILITATION CURED-IN-PLACE PIPE A. WORK TO BE DONE : The work to be done under this contract consists of rehabilitation of existing sewer lines by the Cure-in-Place Pipe Method or approved equal. Cured-in- place pipe consists of a resin impregnated flexible tube , coated with an elastomeric coating , when inverted into an existing sewer pipe through existing access manholes , and which , under proper hydrostatic and thermal conditions , is cured-in-place, becoming a structurally sound cured-in-place pipe . The thickness of the pipe will be dictated by the structural requirements of the sewer pipe with no loss of cross sectional area other than the thickness of the resin-impregnated tube. The pipe will be impermeable to water, provide corrosion resistance, and an optimum friction factor for the sewer flow. Branch connections shall be reinstated by a remote controlled cutting device. 10/23/0 8 The work consists of providing all labor, equipment, transportation , materials , and supervision necessary to : 1. 2 . 3 . 4 . 5 . Thoroughly clean sewers as required for the installation of the resin-impregnated tube .

Comply with all appropriate governmental agencies ' regulations regarding traffic, safety procedures and permits, the cost of which is the responsibility of the Contractor. B . MATERIALS : The fiber felt tube shall be fabricated to a size that when installed will tightly fit the internal circumference of the conduit specified by the Owner. Allowance for circumferential stretching during inversion shall be made and shall meet ASTM-1216 . The minimum length shall be that deemed necessary by the Contractor to effectively span the distance from the inlet to the outlet of the respective manholes , unless otherwise specified. The Contractor shall verify the lengths in the field before impregnation . Individual inversion may be made over one or more manhole sections , as determined in the field by the Contractor. Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall furnish a general purpose unsaturated polyester resin and catalyst system that meets ASTM standards and the finished cured physical strengths specified . C. REQUIRED THICKNESS OF CURED-IN-PLACE PIPE : The thickness of the pipe will be determined from information supplied or manufacture 's recommendation for the condition of the existing pipe . Should pre-installation inspections reveal the sewers to be in substantially different conditions than those in the design considerations , the Contractor can request such changes in pipe thickness , supporting such request with design data in accordance w ith the pipe manufacturer's standard design criteria as follows : 10/23/08 Sewer Diameter 6 " 8 " 10 " 12 " 15 " 18" 21 " 24 " 30 " LINER THICKNESS Pipe Invert Pipe Invert Depth up to 1 O' Depth 10 '-15 ' (also the minimum) 4.5mm 4 .5mm 6.0mm 6 .0mm 6.0mm 6 .0mm 6 .0mm 7.5mm 7.5mm 9.0mm 9.0mm 12 .0mm 10 .5mm 13.5mm 12 .0mm 15.0mm 15 .0mm 18 .0mm ASC-5 Pipe Invert Depth Over 15 ' 4 .5mm 6 .0mm 7.5mm 9.0mm 10.5mm 13.5mm 15.0mm 16 .5mm 21 .0mm PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS 36 " 16.5mm 21.0mm 24.0mm 42 " 19.5mm 24 .0mm 28.5mm 48 " 22 .5mm 28 .5mm 33 .0mm 54 " 25.5mm 30.0mm 36 .0mm 60 " 28 .5mm 34.5mm 39.0mm D.

DA-21 VACUUM TESTING OF REHABILITATED MANHOLES 10/23/08 ASC-71 PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS A. GENERAL Scope. This section describes manhole testing to effectively confirm the watertight integrity of existing manholes following structural ,infiltration and inflow related repairs and that the appearance of the work is acceptable . Description: Infiltration may be observed in manhole defects at manhole walls, pipe seals or bench/trough areas . Infiltration related repairs are intended to eliminate leakage of groundwater into manholes. Inflow may be observed in manhole defects at manhole frames , covers, frame seals, grade adjustments, grade adjustment seals , corbels, or walls. Inflow related repairs are intended to eliminate sources of surface water entry that become active during rainfall events. Structural repairs may be required when making 1/1 related manhole repairs . Structural repairs may include defects in any manhole components but not displaying 1/1. Testing, Observations and Guarantee Periods: The testing required shall be performed by the Contractor at locations designated by the Engineer and documented to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Any new or rehabilitated manholes that are observed to be leaking by the Engineer during periods of high groundwater or during inflow conditions shall be subject to additional repairs. The Contractor shall be responsible for all additional repairs required on these unsatisfactory manholes during the guarantee period. All manhole rehabilitation work shall be warranted to be free of defects and of good workmanship for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of final acceptance of the project. Any manhole repairs completed by the Contractor which fail during the warranty period shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the City at no additional cost to the City. B. MATERIALS -Not specified. C. EXECUTION Infiltration Testing~ All interior coated manholes and all partial replacement manholes shall be observed (tested) by the Contractor in the presence of the Engineer for sources of infiltration. Observations will be made during high groundwater conditions, wherever possible. Manholes shall be tested after installation with all connections (existing and/or proposed) in place . Drop-connections and gas sealing connections shall be installed prior to testing . The lines entering the manhole shall be temporarily plugged with the plugs braced to prevent them from being drawn into the manhole. The plugs shall be installed in the lines beyond drop-connections, gas sealing connections , etc . The test head shall be placed inside the frame at the top of the manhole (so that the manhole frame seal is tested) and inflated in accordance with the manufacturer's 10/23/08 ASC-72 - - PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS recommendations . A vacuum of 10 inches of mercury shall be drawn, and the vacuum pump will be turned off. With the valve closed, the level of vacuum shall be read after the required test time. If the drop in the level is less than 1-inch of mercury (final vacuum greater than 9-inches of mercury), the manhole will have passed the vacuum test. After a successful test, the temporary plugs will be removed . The required test time is determined from Table I.

[Example : A 30 (thirty) foot deep , 48 (forty-eight) inch Manhole Total Test Time would be 75 .0 seconds. 45.0+6(5 .0)=75 .0 seconds] (Values listed above are extrapolated from ASTM C924-85). Manhole vacuum levels observed to drop greater than 1-inch of mercury (Final vacuum less than 9- inches of mercury) will have failed the test and will require additional rehabilitation . The Contractor shall make the necessary repairs to the already completed rehabilitation work at no additional compensation . If the failure of the vacuum test is determined to be due to preexisting conditions not on the manhole rehabilitation schedule for that manhole, this additional work may be authorized by the Owner's Representative. After completion of the additional rehabilitation the manhole shall then be re-tested as described above until a successful test is made . Only one payment for manhole vacuum testing will be made on each manhole. Vacuum testing is required on all manholes having interior rehabilitation . Inflow Testing : All partially rehabilitated manholes shall be dyed water tested unless the manhole has successfully passed the vacuum test. Manholes shall be dyed water tested in the presence of the Engineer. The dye test shall consist of applying a concentrated dye solution around the manhole frame . Dyed water shall be applied for at least ten minutes . Manholes observed to be actively leaking greater than one drip per five seconds will have failed the test and will not be acceptable. Manholes failing the test will require additional rehabilitation by the Contractor at no additional compensation. Other Testing : One (1) rehabilitated manhole will be randomly selected for further testing . A laboratory selected by the City will take core samples of wall sections of manholes with wall coatings . Testing of the core 10/23/0 8 ASC-73 PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS samples will be done to evaluate material thickness, compressive strength , flexural strength and slant shear bond strength.

The criteria for acceptance or rejection of reinforced concrete that is cracked is as follows: 1. DEFINITIONS a. Minor crack -A crack of no more than 5 feet in length and does not extend i.) from the edge of a slab or from a pavement joint, or; ii.) the depth to the reinforcement steel of the concrete slab , or; iii.) an intermediate crack that is designated as a minor crack under Monitor Pavement Option 2 . b. Intermediate Crack -A crack that extends from any edge of slab or joint a distance of no more than 5 feet. c . Structural or Major crack -A crack i.) of greater than 5 feet , or; ii .) that extends from the edge of a slab or from a pavement joint to any other edge of slab or joint, or; ii i.) extends the full depth of the concrete slab , or; iv .) an intermediate crack that is designated as a structural crack under Monitor Pavement Option 2 . d. City Engineer -In the application of this policy , the City Engineer is the Director of the Department of Transportation and Public Works or his designee . 2. ACCEPTABLE PAVEMENT-NO ACTION IS NECESSARY : A concrete panel with four (4) or less minor cracks as defined above is acceptable. (See Figure 1 ). No action is necessary and no routing and sealing is allowed. Rev 2-19-10 SP-34 --- 4--H-tJ PLAN PROF ILE Figure 1 -No action is necessary 3. MONITORED PAVEMENT A concrete pavement with one intermediate crack as defined above may be acceptable. The contractor has two options . Option No. 1 -The panel may be removed and replaced at contractor expense . Option No. 2 -The limit of the crack shall be identified for future reference by drilling a 1/2 " hole at the free end of the crack and sealing the crack with an approved epoxy material. If at the end of the warranty period the crack has not propagated then the crack will be designated as a minor crack . If the crack has propagated then the crack is considered a structural crack . 4. STRUCTURALLY CRACKED PAVEMENT -FULL PANEL REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED: A. If a panel contains greater than four (4) minor cracks and those cracks are determined to be caused primarily by a deficiency of material or workmanship , the panel must be removed and replaced by the Contractor at his own expense . (See Figure 2) Rev 2-19-10 SP-35 --- 4-ttW PLAN PROF ILE Figure 2 -Full panel replacement is required. B. All concrete panels w ith any structural or major crack as defined above that is determined to be caused , primarily , by a deficiency of material or workmanship must be removed and replaced i n the ir entirety by t he Con t ractor at his own expense . (See Figures 3 and 4 below ) PLAN PROFILE Figure 3 -Full panel replacement is required. PLAN PROFILE Rev 2-19-10 SP-36 Figure 4 -Full panel replacement is required. C. If the edge of existing concrete pavement is damaged during the construction of adjacent pavement; the damaged panel(s) must be removed and replaced in its entirety by the Contractor at his own expense . 5. APPLICATION AND FINAL DETERMINATION OF POLICY It is not the intention of this policy that the Contractor is required to remove and replace at his own expense any concrete that cracks due primarily to causes other than his own materials and/or workmanship . While cracks may be caused by a combination of factors , a primary cause can be determined . It is the policy that if a deficiency of materials and/or workmanship be found to be the primary cause of a crack or cracks , then the contractor shall remove and replace the panels that contain the structural crack or cracks at no expense to the City . If cracks exist in the project , the City Engineer or his/her designee will make the determinat ion if the crack is minor or structural. If the crack is structural , the Contractor and the City will attempt to agree on the cause or causes of the crack . If the Contractor and City agree that the cause of a structural crack requiring removal and replacement is due primarily to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship , the concrete pavement will be removed and replaced at Contractor's entire expense . If the Contractor and City cannot agree as to the cause of a structural crack , the City may hire an independent geotechnical engineer to perform testing and analysis to determine the cause of the crack . The contractor will escrow 50% of the proposed costs of the geotechnical contract with the City . The contractor and the City shall use the services of a geotechnical firm acceptable to both parties . If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of a structural crack is due to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship , the deficient concrete pavement will be removed and replaced at Contractor's entire expense and the Contractor will also pay the City for the balance of the cost of the geotechnical investigation over and above the amount that has previously been escrowed . If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the structural crack is not due to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship , the concrete pavement will not be removed and replaced without additional compensation to the Contractor. In turn , the Rev 2-19-10 SP-37 Contractor's escrowed funds , as described above , will be released . 70.

BACKFILL OF UTILITY TRENCHES DESCRIPTION This specification shall govern backfill of trenches , which have been opened for the removal , adjustment , or installation of utility lines within the limits of highway right-of-way. Except when permission is granted , compacted backfill will be used for utility installations . Backfill shall consist of compacted materia l obtained Sperificalions for l tilit~ ln,tallation, 7 1'ort \\ orlh Di.,trict from suitable so il excavated from the trench , or from sources outside the highway right-of-way. Materia l shall be free of rock , lumps , or clods that will not break down under compact ion. Backfill material shall be placed in the trench in layers not to exceed 6" in depth and compacted . Water shall be added as requ ired to facil itate compaction. Compaction shall be done with rollers or mechanical tamps . Use of rollers will be al lowed only when such use is not bel ieved detrimental to any highway faci li ty . The type of roller used must be acceptable to TxDOT. When rollers are used , mechan ical tamps shall be used along the sides of trench to compact any backfill that cannot be reached w ith rollers . Compacting shall be continued unt il a backfill density is equal to that of the ad j acent, undisturbed material. Where trenches lie w ithin the limits of dra inage ditches and channels , which are in solid rock , TxDOT may require 1' of concrete backfill , struck off flush w ith the top of rock . SITE CLEAN UP The Utility is responsible for site clean up at the end of each workday. Roadways adjacent to the ut ili ty construction site shall be kept free from debris , construction materials , and mud . At the end of each day , construction equipment and materials sha ll be moved as far from the roadway as feasible w ithin the safety rules . If mudd ing of the roadway occurs at any time , the roadway shall be cleaned immediately . When the utility installation is complete , the right-of-way shall be reshaped to its original condition and the area reseeded or re-sodded to reduce erosion. Should settlement or erosion occur within one (1) year of the utility installation , TxDOT may specify prompt repla cement at the utility's expense for bringing the construction site to a satisfactory cond it ion . TxDOT will restore sites that are left at an unsatisfactory cond ition after notification has been sent to the utility. These sites wi ll be restored to original cond ition . The ut ility sha ll fully re imburse all costs incurred by TxDOT for all repairs made by TxDOT . These costs include , but are not limited to matters of traffic safety , right of way contour , restoration and repairs to all highway structures : includ ing , but not limited to roads , driveways , terra in , landscap ing , fences , etc . REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT OF RIPRAP AND EARTH SLOPES Any ex ist ing ri prap cut by trench ing operations shall be replaced and surface of new riprap finished to match that of existing riprap . Concrete riprap sha ll contain not less than three (3) sacks of cement per cubic yard of concrete . Reinforcing steel shall conform to that of existing riprap . SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR EROSION CONTROL Special precautions should be taken during utility installations to avoid disturb ing existing dra inage courses. In add ition , soil erosion should be held to a minimum and sediment from the construction site should be kept away from the roadway and drain inlets . During construction the roadbed and ditches shall be maintained in such condition to insure proper dra inage at all times . Ditches and channels shal l be maintained to avoid damage to the roadway . To avoid so il erosion , it is adv ised and encouraged that the Utility Contractor use all applicable means (i.e . silt fences , hay ba il s , rock filter dams , etc.) to detour soil from eroding into roadway , ditches , and adjacent property .

The new roadway will incorporate a Portland cement concrete surfacing, curb and gutters, and will be designed as a collector street 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 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurface conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered, develop recommendations for the type or types of pavement subgrade preparation and modification, provide pavement design guidelines, and provide earthwork recommendations. To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted in the following phases: (1) drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to determine pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. The design is currently in progress and the locations and/or elevations of the structure could change. Once the final design is near completion (BO-percent to 90-percent stage}, it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the construction documents pertaining to the geotechnical recommendations, as a means to determine that our recommendations have been interpreted as intended. 1.3 Report Format The text of the report is contained in Sections 1 through 7. All plates and large tables are contained in Appendix A. The alpha-numeric plate and table numbers identify the appendix in Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 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. 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 10 vertical soil borings drilled to a depth of 10 feet below existing grades. The borings were drilled with truck mounted drilling equipment using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations shown on the Plans of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on Plates A.4 through A.13 and keys to classifications and =j symbols used on the logs are provided on Plates A.2 and A.3. Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin-walled (Shelby) tube samplers at the locations shown on the logs of borings. The Shelby tube sampler consists of a thin-walled steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the soil by the hydraulic pulldown of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to limit loss of moisture. The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand penetrometer. In this test a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the relatively undisturbed sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25 inch. The results of these tests, in tsf, are tabulated at respective sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the 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 Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, !Ne. 2 blow. This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. This results in 350 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. In relatively soft materials, the penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is tabulated at respected test depths , as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock or rock-l ike), 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 hydrated bentonite chips. 2.2 Laboratory Testing Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the borings . In addition to the classification tests (liquid limits, plastic limits, and percent passing the No. 200 sieve), moisture content, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests were performed. Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content , unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs. Ten triaxial shear tests were performed on specimens from selected samples to evaluate shear strength properties of the subgrade soils. The triaxial shear tests included unconsolidated- undrained (UU) tests. These tests were performed for CMJ Engineering, Inc. by ML Testing, LLC. The results of the triaxial tests are presented on Plates A.14 through A.23. Three swell tests were performed on specimens from selected samples of the clays. These tests were performed to help in evaluating the swell potential of soils in the area of the proposed pavements. The results of the swell tests are presented on Plate A.24 . One Eades and Grim Lime Series test was performed on a selected sample to identify the appropriate concentration of lime to add to soils for modification purposes. The results of the lime series test are presented on Plates A.25. Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC . 3 l I Five 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 to a lime modified subgrade. The results of the sulfate tests are presented on Plate A.26. The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM procedures, or generally accepted practice. 3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 3.1 Site Geologies The Dallas Sheet of the Geologic Atlas of Texas indicates the site is located in an outcropping of the Goodland Formation. Clays are typically present at the surface and are often underlain by tan limestone. The parent bedrock is characterized by gray limestone. Residual soils associated with ==j this formation consist of moderately active to highly active clays. 3.2 Soil Conditions Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings are discussed below. Note that depths on the borings refer to the depth from the existing grade or ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate. The existing asphaltic concrete pavement Is 6 to 12 inches thick at the boring locations. Dark brown and brown clays and silty clays with calcareous nodules and limestone fragments were present immediately below the pavement. Tan to tan, brown, and gray silty and shaly clays were then present in Borings B-2, B-5, and B-6 through B-10 at depths of 2 to 7 feet. Borings B-5, B-6, and B-8 through B-1 O terminated in the various clays at a depth of 10 feet. The various clays had tested Liquid Limits (LL) ranging from 26 to 66 and Plasticity Indices (Pl) ranging from 15 to 40 and are classified as CH and CL by the USCS. The various clays were Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, !NC. 4 ....... generally firm to hard (soil basis) in consistency, with pocket penetrometer readings of 2.0 to greater than 4.5 tsf. The clay soils had tested dry unit weight values ranging from 105 to 111 pcf. Tan limestone is present in Borings B-1 through B-4, and B-7 at depths of 4 to 6 feet. Limestone seams/layers occur in Borings B-2 and B-10. The rock is generally moderately hard and exhibits THD cone penetrometer readings of 0.25 to 4 inches in 100 blows. 3.3 Ground-Water Observations The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground-water seepage during drilling. All borings were dry at completion of drilling operations. 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 trap atop limestone or occur in joints in the clays. 4.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN 4.1 Pavement Subgrade Considerations 4.1.1 General The performance of the pavement for this project depends upon several factors including: the characteristics of the supporting soil; the magnitude and frequency of wheel load applications; the quality of construction materials; the contractor's placement and workmanship abilities; and the desired period of design life. The success of the pavement subgrade is subgrade soil strength and control of water. Adequate subgrade performance can be achieved by modifying or stabilizing the existing soils used to construct the pavement subgrade. Pavement sections are susceptible to edge distress as edge support deteriorates over time. Therefore, care must be taken to provide and maintain proper edge support. In conjunction with a stabilized subgrade underlying the pavement, it is recommended that the stabilized subgrade extend a minimum of 12 inches beyond the surface course on each side of the street. Maintenance should be provided when edge support deteriorates. Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 5 4.1.2 Subqrade Preparation Anticipated subgrade materials generally consist of plastic to highly plastic clays. The plastic to highly plastic clays are subject to loss in support value with the moisture increases which occur beneath pavement sections. They react with hydrated lime, which serves to improve and maintain their support value. Treatment of these soils with hydrated lime will improve their subgrade characteristics to support area paving. Consideration also may be given to recycling the existing asphaltic concrete and adding Portland cement for its stabilization. 4.2 Potential Vertical Movements Estimates of expansive movement potential have been calculated using TxDOT Test Method Tex 124-E. Potential vertical movements on the order of 1% to 3 in~hes are estimated in most years. Movements in excess of these estimates can occur if poor drainage, excessive water collection, leaking pipelines, etc. occur. Any such excessive water conditions should be rectified as soon as possible. In order to minimize rainwater infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement should be sealed on a routine basis after construction. 4.3 Sulfate-Induced Heaving Soluble sulfate testing was conducted to check for sulfate-induced heaving potential. Sulfate- induced heaving is caused when hydrated lime is added to a soil with high sulfate concentration. The lime reacts with the sulfates to cause potentially large volumetric changes in the soil. Portland cement also produces lime as a byproduct of hydration, and therefore also reacts with sulfates. Soluble sulfate levels in soils on the order of 2,000 parts-per-million (ppm) or less are usually of low · concern and warrant only observation of the subgrade during the stabilization process. The soluble sulfate levels of the tested samples ranged from 100 to 566 ppm. Since the samples tested were below 2,000 ppm, a single treatment process is recommended. The single treatment is described in Section 4.4. In addition, it is recommended that during the curing period of the lime treatment, the subgrade be supplied with ample moisture to allow proper hydration, and it should be checked for any volumetric changes that may indicate a sulfate-induced heaving condition. Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, !Ne. 6 4.4 Pavement Subg·rade Preparation 4.4.1 Lime Stabilization Lime stabilization is recommended for all subgrade areas with plastic to highly plastic clays. Prior to lime addition, the subgrade should be proofrolled with heavy pneumatic equipment. Any soft or pumping areas should be undercut to a firm subgrade and properly backfilled as described in the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS). According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification, STS-003 Earthwork, Section 3.07, the stabilized subgrade should be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches and uniformly compacted to a minimum of 100 percent of Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698), between minus 2 to plus 3 percentage points of the optimum moisture content determined by that test. It should then be protected and maintained in a moist condition until the pavement is placed. The presence of limestone fragments and calcareous nodules in the surficial soils can complicate mixing of the soil and lime. It is recommended a minimum of 6 percent hydrated lime be used to stabilize the clay subgrade soils. The amount of hydrated lime required to stabilize the subgrade should be on the order of 27 pounds per square yard based on a dry unit weight of 100 pcf for a 6-inch depth. The hydrated lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the upper 6 inches of the clay subgrade (TxDOT Item 260). The hydrated lime should meet the requirements of Item 260 (Type A) in the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways, Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition. 4.4.2 Pavement Subgrade Preparation Using Portland Cement Pulva-mixing onsite asphaltic concrete can be performed to recycle this material. As such, Portland cement serves to improve and maintain support value of this material. Treatment of these soils with cement will improve their subgrade characteristics to support area paving. Prior to stabilization, the subgrade should be proofrolled with heavy pneumatic equipment. Any soft or pumping areas should be undercut to a firm subgrade and properly backfilled as described in the Earthwork section. Report No . 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 7 The stabilized subgrade should be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches and uniformly compacted to a minimum of 100 percent of ASTM D 698, near 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 . It is recommended a minimum of 5 percent Portland cement be used to modify the pulva-mixed asphaltic concrete. The amount of cement required to stabilize the subgrade should be on the order of 25 pounds per square yard for a 6-inch depth. The cement should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the upper 6 inches of the subgrade (TxDOT Items 275). 4.4.3 Subqrade Preparation Considerations It is recommended that subgrade stabilization extend to at least one foot beyond pavement edges to aid in reducing pavement movements and cracking along the curb line due to seasonal moisture variations after construction. Each construction area should be shaped to allow drainage of surface water during earthwork operations, and surface water should be pumped immediately from each construction area after each rain and a firm subgrade condition maintained . Water should not be allowed to pond in order to prevent percolation and subgrade softening, and subgrade treatments should be added to the subgrade after removal of all surface vegetation and debris. Sand shou ld be specifically prohibited beneath pavement areas, since these more porous soils can allow water inflow, resulting in heave and strength loss of subgrade soils (lime stabilized soil will be allowed for fine grading). After fine grading each area in preparation for paving, the subgrade surface should be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non-yielding subgrade. Surface drainage is critical to the performance of this pavement. Water should be allowed to exit the pavement surface quickly. This can be accomplished by maintaining at least 1 percent slope of the finished grades and discharging the water into drainage structures. All pavement construction should be performed in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 4.6. 4.5 Pavement Sections At the time of this investigation, site paving plans or vehicle traffic studies were not available. Pavement analyses were performed using methods outlined in the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993 Edition, published by the American Association of State Highway and Report No . 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 8 I , I Transportation Officials. The design equations were solved using AASHTO Pavement Analysis Software. In the AASHTO method, traffic loads are expressed in Equivalent 18-kip Single Axle Loads (ESAL) over the design life of the pavement structure. Silver Creek Road is classified as a collector. Based on the results of the field and laboratory investigation and on soil plasticity properties, the following design parameters were used in our thickness design calculations for the proposed streets (soil parameters were conservatively established for the soils that are expected to exhibit lower bearing strengths): Subgrade Soils ........................................................

Detailed pavement design calculations and assumptions are presented on Plate B.1. The design ESALS were provided in the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. The following pavement sections are suitable for the previously mentioned assumptions. Any deviation from these assumptions should be brought to our attention immediately in order to assess their impact on our recommendations. Rigid Pavement Section Street Growth Design Thickness Material Classification Factor ESAL (in.) 9.0 PCC 6 Lime Treated Subgrade Collector 1.5% 3,006,000 According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, the allowable drainage coefficient for rigid concrete slabs placed directly on a lime stabilized clay subgrade without a permeable base layer must be no greater than 0.7. The above requirements directly affect the pavement thickness calculations. Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 9 . I =! I 4.6 Pavement Material Requirements Material and process specifications are required to be in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition , Special Technical Specification. These specifications generally include the following references to TxDOT Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways, Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition. Reinforced Portland Cement Concrete: Reinforced Portland cement concrete pavement should consist of Portland cement concrete having a 28-day compressive strength of at least 3,500 psi. The mix should be designed in accordance with Item 360, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition using 3 to 6 percent air entrainment. The pavement should be adequately reinforced with temperature steel and all pavement joints should be placed and constructed in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Section 4.5.4. Lime Stabilized Subgrade: Lime treatment for base course (road mix) -Item 260, Texas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, 2004 Edition. 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 3 inches. In order to minimize rainwater infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the pavement slabs , all cracks and joints in the pavement should be sealed on a routine basis after construction. Proper surface drainage in the shoulders is also critical to long term performance of the pavement. Water allowed to pond adjacent to the pavement will result in loss of edge and subgrade support and an increase in post construction heave of the pavement. Report No. 796 -07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 10 5.0 EARTHWORK 5.1 City of Fort Worth Required Specifications The City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS) covers the requirements for general earthwork, undercutting excavation and backfill for unstable subgrades for City Streets including excavation, compacted earth fill, flowable fill, and trench backfill. The design engineer may refer to this specification directly in the contract documents. Related requirements are found within the Special Technical Specification. 5.2 Utilities Unusual problems with caving soils or collapsing materials were not noted at the boring locations. 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 sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910), Subpart P, regarding trench excavations greater than 5 feet in depth. 5.3 Erosion and Sediment Control All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and all permanent slopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with permanent erosion and sediment control facilities. All applicable ordinances and codes regarding erosion and sediment control should be followed. 6.0 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS In any geotechnical investigation, the design recommendations are based on a limited amount of information about the subsurface conditions. In the analysis, the geotechnical engineer must Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 11 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 foundat ion 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. 7.0 REPORT CLOSURE The borings for this study were selected by CMJ Engineering, Inc. The locations and elevations of the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used in their determination. The boring logs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soil encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the interface between these materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests were also performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests, along with visual-manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of classifications for those portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soil classification tests were not performed. It is not implied that these logs are representative of subsurface conditions at other locations and times. Report No . 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 12 With regard to ground-water conditions, this report presents data on ground-water levels as they were observed during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the report and on the boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground-water table can occur with passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature and other factors . Also, this report does not include quantitative information on rates of flow of ground water into excavations, on pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering excavations. Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and cannot be fully predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected conditions frequently require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly designed and constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is recommended to accommodate such potential extra cost. The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of our field investigation and further on the assumption that the exploratory borings are representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the site; that is, the subsurface conditions everywhere are not significantly different from those disclosed by the borings at the time they were completed. If, during construction, different subsurface conditions from those encountered in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we must be advised promptly so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure locations, structural loads or finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time lapse. Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the plans and specifications for this particular project that pertain to earthwork and foundations as a means to determine whether the plans and specifications are consistent with the recommendations contained in this report. In addition, we are available to observe construction, particularly the compaction of structural fill, or backfill and the construction of foundations as recommended in the report , and such other field observations as might be necessary. Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, !Ne. 13 I I I : I ~ I I ~ I ~Jhe scope of our services did not include any environmental assessment or investigation for the presence or absence of wetlands or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, surface water, ground water or air, on or below or around the site. This report has been prepared for use in developing an overall design concept. Paragraphs, statements, test results, boring logs, diagrams, etc. should not be taken out of context, nor utilized without a knowledge and awareness of their intent within the overall concept of this report. The reproduction of this report, or any part thereof, supplied to persons other than the owner, should indicate that this study was made for design purposes only and that verification of the subsurface conditions for purposes of determining difficulty of excavation, trafficability, etc. are responsibilities of the contractor. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the City of Fort Worth for specific application to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in connection with the services provided is that we have used that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised under similar conditions by reputable members of our profession practicing in the same or similar locality. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made or intended. * * * * Report No. 796-07-02 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 14 LEGEND: L) ):::,.. r-. l> --; n, Boring Locotion 8-10 8-9 8-8 8-7 8-6 8-5 PLAN OF BORINGS SILVER CREEK ROAD LOOP 820 TO VERNA TRAIL FORT WORTH, TEXAS ~ N t SILVER CREEK ROAD 8-4 8-3 8-2 0 300 500 feel Approximo/e Scole -CMJENGINBERING,JNC CMJ PROJECT No. 796-07-02 i I I I I I I I I I I Major Divisions Grp.
