Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Lot 5,
Creamery Gulch, Eagle County, Colorado.
Gentlemen:
As requested, we have conducted a subsoil study at the subject site, located on Lot 5,
Creamery Gulch, Eagle County, Colorado.
Subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory boring and pits located drilled in
the general proposed building area consist of 1 to 1 1/2 feet of topsoil overlying low
density compressible sandy clays and clayey sands. At a depth of about 20 feet the
clayey sand became more dense. Groundwater was not encountered in the pits or
boring at the time of excavation/drilling.
The proposed residence should be founded with a drilled pier foundation that extends
into the underlying dense clayey sand and be designed for an allowable end bearing
pressure of 5000 psf and a skin friction value of 300 psf. As an alternative, spread
footings bearing on a minimum 3 feet of compacted structural fill and designed for an
allowable soil bearing pressure of 1000 psf may be used for support. of the structure.
Other design and construction criteria relating to geotechnical aspects of the proposed
residence are presented in the body of the report.
The report which follows describes our investigation, summarizes our findings, and
presents our recommendations. It is important that we provide consultation during
design, and field services during construction to review and monitor the
implementation of the geotechnical recommendations.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact us.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of a subsoil study for a proposed residence to be
located on Lot 5, Creamery Gulch, Eagle County, Colorado. The project site is shown on
Fig. 1. The purpose of the study was to develop recommendations for the foundation design,
The study was conducted in accordance with our agreement for geotechnical engineering
services to Summit Habitats, dated September 16, 1993. in addition to our original scope of
services, we also drilled a deep boring at the site in order to provide drilled pier
recommendations.
A field exploration program consisting of exploratory pits and a deep boring was
conducted to obtain information on subsurface conditions. Samples obtained during the field
exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine compressibility and other engineering
characteristics of the on -site soils. The results of the field exploration and laboratory testing
were analyzed to develop recommendations for foundation types, depths and allowable
pressures for the proposed building foundation. The results of the field exploration and
Laboratory testing are presented in the report.
This report has been prepared to summarize the data obtained during this study and to
present our conclusions and recommendations based on the proposed construction and the
subsoil conditions encountered. Design parameters and a discussion of geotechnical
engineering considerations related to construction of the proposed residence are included in
the report.

PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
Design and location of the residence was conceptual at the time of our study, The
proposed residence will generally be a single story wood frame structure over a walkout
basement. Ground floor will be slab -on -grade. Grading for the structure is assumed to be
relatively minor with cut depths between about 4 to 8 feet. We assume relatively light
foundation loadings, typical of the proposed type of construction. The building will
generally be located in the upper part of the building envelope shown on Fig 1.
If building loadings, location or grading plans change significantly from those
described above, we should be notified to reevaluate the reconunendations contained in this
T'eport.
SITE CONDITIONS
The site consists of fallow grass pasture and was vacant at the time of our field work.
The topography of the site is relatively flat to gently rolling with a 10% slope down to the
west and southwest. The building area is located in the northeast portion of the building
envelope above an abandoned irrigation ditch, The proposed leach field area is located west
of the building area below the abandoned irrigation ditch. Access to the site is from
Creamery Gulch Drive to the north of the building area.

SUBSIDENCE POTENTIAL
Bedrock of the Pennsylvanian Age Eagle Valley Evaporite underlies the Creamery
Gulch Development. These rocks are a sequence of gypsiferous shale, fine-grained
sandstone/siltstone with some massive beds of gypsum and limestone. There is a possibility
that massive, heavily bedded gypsum deposits associated with the Eagle Valley Evaporitz
underlie portions of the lot. Dissolution of the gypsum under certain conditions can cause
sinkholes to develop and can produce areas of localized subsidence,
Sinkholes were not observed in the immediate area of the subject lot. A small
depression located at the soutli edge of the Profile Pit appears to be from an animal burial.
The exploratory boring was 5J feet deep and bedrock was not encountered. No evidence of
cavities was observed. Based on our present knowledge of the subsurface conditions at the
site, it cannot be said for certain that sinkholes will not develop. The risk of ground
subsidence on Lot 5 throughout the service life of the proposed residence, in our opinion, is
low. However, the owner should be made aware of the potential for sinkhole development.
If further investigation of possible cavities in the bedrock below the site is desired, we should
be contacted.
FIELD EXPLORATION
Exploratory pits were excavated at the site on September 29, 1993. An exploratory
boring was drilled on October 13, 1993. The exploratory pit. and boring locations are shown
H-P GEOYECH
\ ` 4 -
on Fig. 1. The pits were dug with a rubber -tired back-boe. The. boring was advanced with
4-inch diameter continuous flight augers powered by a truck -mounted CMF-55 drill rig. The
pits and boring were logged by a representative of Hepwortli-Pawlak Geotecbnical, Inc.
Samples of the subsoils were taken from the pits with relatively undisturbed and
disturbed sampling methods and from the boring with 1 3/8-inch and 2-inch I.D. spoon
samplers. The samplers were driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows from a
140-round hatntner falling 30 inches. This test is similar to the standard penetration test
described by ASTM Method D-1586. The penetration resistance values are an indication of
the relative density or consistency of the subsoils. Depths at which the samples were taken
and the penetration resistance values are shown on the Logs of Exploratory Holes, Fig, 2.
The samples were returned to our laboratory for review by the project engineer and testing.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The subsoil conditions encountered at the site are shown graphically on Fig. 2. The
subsoils consist of about 1 to 1 1/2 feet of topsoil overlying interlayered sandy clay, clayey
sand and silty sand. Scattered gravels and occasional cobbles were encountered in the pits
and boring. The soils encountered in the pits were generally low density. The soils below
about 20 feet in the boring were medium dense to dense.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the exploratory holes included
natural moisture content, density, Atterberg limits and gradation analyses. Results of
consolidation testing performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the clays and sands,

encountered within the upper 10 feet, presented on Figs, 4-7, indicate low compressibility
under light loading conditions, A moderate to high collapse potential (settlement under
constant load) was observed when the samples were wetted under light loading. Moderate to
high compressibility of the clays was observed under increased loading after wetting. Results
of gradation analyses performed on small diameter drive samples (minus 1 1/2-inch fraction)
of the deeper, more granular soils are shown on Figs. 8 and 9. Atterberg limits testing
indicates the finer portion of the subsoils is of low plasticity. The laboratory testing is
summarized in 'fable 1.
No free water was encountered in the pits or boring at the time of excavation/drilling
and the subsoils were slightly moist to moist with depth.
DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
FOUNDATIONS
The subsoils encountered down to about 10 feet depth consisted of low density and
compressible sandy clays and clayey sands. These soils tend to settle under constant load
when wetted (collapse). In residential areas there are several sources of subsurface wetting,
such as irrigation, surface water runoff and utility line leaks, A relatively low risk
foundation system with regard to potential settlement caused by wetting of the upper soils is
a straight -shaft drilled pier foundation that extends to below the potential depth of wetting.
In addition to their ability to reduce settlements, the piers have the advantage of providing
higher supporting capacity. The piers can be constructed rather quickly and should

experience a relatively small amount of movement.
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a
straight -shaft drilled pier foundation system:
1) The piers should be designed for an allowable end bearing pressure of 5000 psf and a
skin friction of 300 psf for that portion of the pier between 10 and 20 feet deep. The
top 10 feet of pier penetration should be neglected in the skin friction calculations.
Additional pier capacity can be gained by extending the piers below 20 feet deep.
Skin friction of 500 psf can be used for the portion of the pier below 20 feet deep,
2) All piers should have a minimum total embedment length of 20 feet and minimum
diameter of 16 inches,
3) The pier holes should be properly cleaned prior to placement of concrete. The natural
clays and sands are generally stiff which indicates that casing of the holes should not
be required, Some caving and difficult drilling may be experienced in the bearing
soils due to scattered gravels and cobbles. Placing concrete in the pier hole
immediately after drilling is recommended.
4) The pier drilling contractor should mobilize equipment of sufficient size to achieve the
design pier sizes and depths,
5) Free water was not encountered in the boring made at the site and it Appears that
dewatering should not be needed.
6) A representative of the soil engineer should observe pier drilling operations on a
full-time basis. This is important. because drilling conditions and concrete placement
methods can affect the capacity of the piers.
H-P GEOTECH

FOUNDATION ALTERNATIVE
Based on the subsurface conditions identified in the exploratory pits and boring, the
residence can be supported by lightly loaded spread footings placed on a minimum Moot
depth of compacted structural fill with some risk of long term foundation settlement and
distress. The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a
spread footing foundation system.
1) Footings should be placed on a minimum Moot depth of compacted structural fill and
be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 1000 psf, Based on experience,
we expect settlement of footings designed and constructed as discussed in this section
will be about l to 2 inches which could occur over a long time period. Heavily
reinforced continuous wall foundations rather than isolated pads should be used to
limit the effects of differential settlement.
2) Prior to placing structural fill for the foundation, the area should be stripped of
topsoil and cut to the design level. Structural fill should be placed in uniform lifts not
to exceed 8 inches and compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor
density at a moisture content within about 2% of optimum. Fill should extend
laterally beyond the edges of the footing a distance at least equal to the depth of fill
below the footing. The structural fill should have sufficient fines content to restrict
subsurface water flow such as the on -site soils.
3) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls and
2 feet for isolated pads.
4) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided with
H-P GEOTECH
adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost protection. Placement of
foundations at least 42 inches below exterior grade is typically used in this area.
5) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span an
unsupported length of at least 12 feet.
6) A representative of the soil engineer should evaluate fill placement for compaction
and observe all footing excavations prior to concrete placement to evaluate bearing
conditions,
FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS
Foundation walls and retaining structures which are laterally supported and can be.
expected to undergo only a slight amount of deflection should be designed for a lateral earth
pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 50 pcf for backfill
consisting of the on -site soils. Cantilevered retaining structures which are separate from the
residence and can be expected to deflect sufficiently to mobilize the full active earth pressure
condition should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an
equivalent fluid unit weight of 40 pcf for backfill consisting of the on -site soils.
All foundation and retaining structures should be designed for appropriate hydrostatic
and surcharge pressures such as adjacent footings, traffic, construction materials and
equipment. The pressures recommended above assume drained conditions behind the walls
and a horizontal backfill surface. The buildup of water behind a wall or an upward sloping
backfill surface will increase the lateral pressure imposed on a foundation wall or retaining
structure. An underdrain should be provided to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup
behind walls,
H-P GEOTECH
-9-
Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90% of the
maximum standard Procter density at a moisture content near optimum, Backfill in
pavement and walkway areas should be compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum standard
Proctor density. Care should be taken not to overcompact the backfill or use large
equipment near the wall since this could cause excessive lateral pressure on the wall. Some
settlement of deep foundation wall backfill should be expected even if the material is placed
correctly and could result in distress to facilities constructed on the backfill.
The lateral resistance of foundation or retaining wall footings will be a combination of
the sliding resistance of the footing on the foundation matcrials and passive earth pressure
against the side of the footing. Resistance to sliding at the bottoms of the footings can be
calculated based on a coefficient of friction of 0.30. Passive pressure against the sides of the
footings (or piers) can be calculated using an equivalent fluid unit weight of 250 pcf. The
coefficient of friction and passive pressure values recommended above assume ultimate soil
strength. Suitable factors of safety should be included in the design to limit the strain which
will occur at the ultimate strength, particularly in the ease of passive resistance. Fill placed
against the sides of the footings to resist lateral loads should be compacted to at
least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum.
FLOOR SLABS
The upper fine-grained soils encountered in the pits possess variable settlement
potential and slab settlement could occur if the subgrade soils were to become wet.
Slab -on -grade constriction may be used provided precautions are taken to limit potential

settlement and the risk of distress to the building is accepted by the owner. Removal and
replacement of the natural soils to provide at least 3 feet of compacted structural fill below
slabs can be done to reduce the risk of slab settlement. The structural fill should be
constructed similar to that. described above in "Foundation Recommendations".
To reduce the effects of some differential settlement, nonstructural floor slabs should be
separated from all bearing walls and columns with expansion joints which allow unrestrained
vertical movement. Floor slab control ,joints should be used to reduce damage clue to
shrinkage cracking. Slab reinforcement and control joints should be established by the
designer based on experience and the intended slab use.
A minimum 4-inch layer of base course gravel should be placed immediately beneath
slabs -on -grade. This material should consist of minus 2-inch aggregate with less than 50%
passing the No, 4 sieve and less than 12% passing the No. 200 sieve. The gravel will
provide slab support and help break capillary moisture rise.
Required fill beneath slabs can consist of the on -site soils or a suitable imported
granular material, excluding topsoil and oversized rocks. The fill should be spread in thin
horizontal lifts, adjusted to at or above optimum moisture content, and compacted to at least
95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density. All topsoil and loose or disturbed soil
should be removed and the subgrade moistened and compacted prior to fill placement..
UNDERDRAIN SYSTEM
Although free water was not encountered during our exploration, it has been our
experience in mountainous areas that local perched groundwater may develop during times of

heavy precipitation or seasonal runoff, Frozen ground during spring runoff can create a
perched condition, We recommend below grade construction, such as retaining walls and
basement areas, be protected from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an underdrain
system,
The drains should consist of drainpipe placed in the bottom of the wall backfill
surrounded above the invert level with free -draining granular material. The drain should be
placed at each level of excavation and at least 1 foot below lowest adjacent finish grade and
sloped at a minimum 1 % to a suitable gravity outlet. Free -draining granular material used in
the underdrain system should contain less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve, less than 50%
passing the No. 4 sieve and have a maximum size of 2 inches, The drain gravel backfill
should be at least 2 feet deep. An impervious liner such as 20 mil PVC should be placed
beneath the drain gravel in a trough shape and attached to the foundation wall with mastic to
prevent wetting of the subsoils.
SITE GRADING
The risk of construction induced slope instability at the site appears low provided the
building is located as planned and cut and fill depths are limited. We assume the cut depth
.l
for the basement level will not exceed one level, about 8 to 10 feet. Fills should be limited
to about 6 to 8 feet deep. Embankment fills should be compacted to at least. 95 % of the
maximum standard Proctor density near optimum moisture content. Prior to fill placement,
the subgrade should be carefully prepared by removing all vegetation and topsoil and
compacting to 90% standard Proctor density.
H-P GEOTECH
-12-
Permanent unretained cut and fill slopes should be graded at 2 horizontal to 1 vertical
or flatter. The risk of slope instability will be increased if seepage is encountered in cuts and
flatter slopes may be necessary. If seepage is encountered in permanent cuts, an
investigation should be conducted to determine if the seepage will adversely affect the cut
stability. Graded slopes should be protected against erosion by revegetation or other means.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
Wetting of the subsoils beneath the building could result in floor and foundation
settlement and distress. Extreme wetting may even cause the drilled pier foundation to settle.
The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and maintained at
all times after the residence has been completed:
1) Inundation of the building excavations should be avoided during construction.
2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisw e and compacted to at
least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in pavement and slab areas and to
at least 90% of the maximum standard Proctor density in landscape areas.
3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building should be sloped to drain
away from the foundation in all directions. We recommend a. minimum slope of
12 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the
first 10 feet in paved areas, Free -draining wall backfill should be capped with about
2 feet of the on -site soils to reduce surface water infiltration.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill,

S) Landscaping which requires regular heavy irrigation should be located at least S feet
from foundation walls.
PERCOLATION TESTING
The subsoils encountered in the proposed leach field area consist mainly of slightly .
moist to moist silty sandy clays. No free water was encountered to the pit depth of 8 feet..
The percolation test results, presented in Table II, indicate a rate of 20 minutes per inch.
Based on these findings, an infiltration septic disposal system is suitable at the site.
LIMITATIONS
This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical
engineering principles and practices in this area at this tune. We make no other warranty
either expressed or implied, The conclusions and recommendations submitted in this report.
are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory pits and boring excavated at the
locations indicated on Fig. 1, the proposed type of construction and our experience in the
area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the subsurface conditions
identified at the exploratory holes and variations in the subsurface conditions may not
become evident until excavation is performed. If conditions encountered during construction
appear to be different from those described in this report, we should be notified at once so
re-evaluation of the recommendations may be made.

This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes.
We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our exploratory information.
As the project. evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field services during
construction to review and monitor the implementation of our recommendations, and to
verify that the recommendations have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design
changes may require additional analysis or modifications of the recommendations presented
herein. We recommend on -site observation of excavations and foundation bearing strata,
pier drilling and testing of structural fill by a representative of the soil engineer. .
