Subject: Report Transmittal, Prelinninary Subsoil Study for Foundation Design,
Proposed Residence, Lot 8, Timber Springs, Eagle County, Colorado.
Dear Mr. Badger:
As requested, we have conducted a preliminary subsoil study for the proposed residence
at the subject site.
Subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings drilled in the proposed
building area generally consist of about 1 foot of topsoil overlying stiff sandy silty clay
with scattered gravel size shale fragments. Siltstone/claystone bedrock was encountered
beneath the clay in Boring 1 at a depth of 15 feet to the drilled depth of.20 feet. Clayey
gravel was encountered at a depth of 16 feet in Boring 2 to the drilled depth of 20 feet.
Groundwater was not encountered in the borings at the time of drilling or when checked
on July 7, 2001.
The proposed residence can be founded on spread footings placed on the natural
subsoils and designed for an allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. The subgrade
should be evaluated for settlement/heave potential at the time of construction.
The report which follows describes our exploration, 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 preliminary subsoil study for a proposed
residence to be located on Lot 8, Timber Springs, Eagle County, Colorado. The
project site is shown on Fig. 1. The purpose of the study was to develop
recommendations for foundation design. The study was conducted in general
accordance with our proposal for geotechnical engineering services to Cordillera dated
April 17, 2001. The potential geologic impacts to the property were previously
evaluated by us and the findings presented in a report dated July 20, 2001,
Job No. 101324.
A field exploration program consisting of exploratory borings was conducted to
obtain information on subsurface conditions. Samples of the subsoils obtained during
the field exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine their classification,
compressibility or swell and other engineering characteristics. The results of the field
exploration and laboratory testing were analyzed to develop recommendations for
planning and preliminary design. This report summarizes the data obtained during this
study and presents our conclusions, design recommendations and other geotechnical
engineering considerations based on the assumed construction and the subsoil conditions
encountered.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
At the time of our study, design plans for the residence had not been developed.
The building is proposed in the building envelope shown on Fig. 1. We assume the
residence will be a two to three story wood frame structure with a lower walkout
basement level or crawlspace. We assume excavation for the building will have a
maximum cut depth up to about 15 feet below the existing ground surface.' For the
purpose of our analysis, foundation loadings for the structure were assumed to be
relatively light and typical of the assumed type of construction.
H-P GEOTECH
-2-
When building location, grading and loading information have been developed,
we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in this report.
SITE CONDITIONS
The site was vacant at the time of our field work. The lot is located on a
southeast facing hillside. The ground surface in the building envelope has a moderate
to moderately steep slope down to the southeast at grades between about 8 % and 22
There is about�3�0 to 35 feet of elevation difference across the proposed building }
envelope. A stream and wetlands are located to the east and southeast of the building
envelope. Vegetation consists of sagebrush, grass and weeds. Evergreens are located
to the west of the building envelope.
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration for the project was conducted on June 6, 2001. Two
exploratory borings were drilled at the locations shown on Fig. 1 to evaluate the general
subsurface conditions. The borings were advanced with 4 inch diameter continuous
flight augers powered by a track -mounted CME-45 drill rig. The borings were logged
by a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc.
Samples of the subsoils were taken with a 2 inch I.D. spoon sampler. The
sampler was driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows from a 140 pound
hammer 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 and hardness of the bedrock. Depths at
which the samples were taken and the penetration resistance values are shown on the
Logs of Exploratory Borings, Fig. 2. The samples were returned to our laboratory for
review by the project engineer and testing.
H-P GEOTECH
-3-
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Graphic logs of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site are shown on
Fig. 2. The subsoils generally consist of about 1 foot of topsoil overlying stiff sandy
silty clay 11
with scattered gravel size shale fragments. Si tstoae/claystone bedrock was
encountered beneath the clay in Boring 1 at a depth of 15 feet to the drilled depth of 20
feet. Clayey gravel was encountered at a depth of 16 feet in Boring 2 to the drilled
depth of 20 feet.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the borings included
natural moisture content and density, Atterberg limits and finer than sand size gradation
analyses. Results of swell -consolidation testing performed on relatively undisturbed
drive samples of the clay, presented on Fig. 4, indicate low to moderate compressibility
under conditions of loading and wetting. One sample showed a minor expansion
potential when wetted under a constant light surcharge.
No free water was encountered in the borings at the time of drilling or when
checked on July 7, 2001. The soils were slightly moist to moist.
PRELIMINARY DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
The conclusions and recommendations presented below are based on the
subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings, the geologic site
assessment report and our experience in the area. The recommendations are considered
suitable for planning and preliminary design. Once building location and grading plans
have been developed, we should perform additional analysis as needed to develop site
specific design recommendations.
FOUNDATIONS
Considering the subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings
and the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend the building be founded
with spread footings bearing on the natural subsoils.
H-P GEOTECH
-4-
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a
spread footing foundation system.
1) Footings placed on the undisturbed natural subsoils should be designed
for an allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. Based on experience, we
expect settlement of footings designed and constructed as discussed in
this section will be about 1 inch or less.
2) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous
walls and 2 feet for isolated pads.
3) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided
with 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.
4) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span
local anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least
12 feet. Foundation walls acting as retaining structures should also be
designed to resist lateral earth pressures as discussed in the "Foundation
and Retaining Walls" section of this report.
5) The topsoil and any loose or disturbed soils should be removed and the
footing bearing level extended down to firm natural soils. If water
seepage is encountered, the footing areas should be dewatered before
concrete placement.
6) A representative of the geotechnical engineer should 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 55 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
H-P GEOTECH
-5-
computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 45 pcf for backfill consisting
of the on -site soils. Backfill should not contain vegetation, topsoil or oversized rock.
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 installed to prevent
hydrostatic pressure buildup behind walls.
Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90 % of the
maximum standard Proctor 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 materials 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 0.35.
Passive pressure of compacted backfill against the sides of the footings can be calculated
using an equivalent fluid unit weight of 300 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 case 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.
H-P GEOTECH
FLOOR SLABS
The natural on -site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly
loaded slab -on -grade construction. The subgrade should be evaluated for
settlement/heave potential at the time of construction. To reduce the effects of some
differential movement, 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 due to shrinkage cracking. The
requirements for joint spacing and slab reinforcement should be established by the
designer based on experience and the intended slab use. A minimum 4 inch layer of
free -draining gravel should be placed beneath basement level slabs to facilitate drainage.
This material should consist of minus 2 inch aggregate with at least 50 % retained on the
No. 4 sieve and less than 2 % passing the No. 200 sieve.
All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95 %
of maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Required
fill can consist of the on -site soils devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock.
UNDERDRAIN SYSTEM
Although free water was not encountered during our exploration, it has been our
experience in the area and where there are clay soils and shallow bedrock 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, crawlspace 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 llh feet deep.
H-P GEOTECH
-7-
SITE GRADING
The extent of site grading needed for development of the lot is unknown at this
time. It is recommended that the building be located in the middle to lower front part of
the building envelope and grading be limited due to the relatively steep uphill terrain.
Geotechni;cal recommendations for grading should be developed on a site specific basis
for the building area. The grading criteria presented below can be used for planning
and preliminary design.
Cuts and fills should be limited to about 15 feet deep. Embankment fill 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. The fill should be benched into the portions of the
hillside exceeding 20% grade. The on -site soils excluding vegetation, topsoil or
oversized rock should be suitable for use in embankment fills.
Permanent unretained cut and fill slopes should be graded at 2 horizontal to
1 vertical or flatter and protected against erosion by revegetation or other means. This
office should review site grading plans for the project prior to construction.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and
maintained at all times after the residence has been completed:
1) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be
avoided during construction.
2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture 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.
H-P GEOTECH
am
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.
PERCOLATION TESTING
A percolation test was conducted in the lower part of the building envelope to
evaluate the feasibility of an infiltration septic disposal system at the site. Boring 2 and
one percolation hole (P-1) were drilled at the locations shown on Fig. 1. The
percolation hole was drilled with a 6 inch diameter auger and was soaked with water
one day prior to testing. The soils encountered in the percolation hole were similar to
those encountered in the adjacent Boring 2 shown on Fig. 2 and consist of about 1 foot
of topsoil overlying stiff sandy silty clay. Clayey gravel was encountered beneath the
clay at a depth of 16 feet to the drilled depth of 20 feet. The percolation test results are
presented in Table H and indicate a percolation rate of 20 minutes per inch. Based on
the subsurface conditions encountered and the percolation test results, the �.,
should be suitable for an infiltration septic disposal system. The percolation rates
throughout the disposal system area could be variable and additional tests should be
conducted for design of the disposal system.
MUTATIONS
This study has been conducted according to generally accepted geotechnical
engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty
either expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted in this
report are based upon the data obtained from the geologic site assessment, the
exploratory borings located as shown on Fig. 1, the assumed type of construction and
our experience in the area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the
subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory borings and variations in the
subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If
conditions encountered during construction appear different from those described in this
H-P GEOTECH
report, we should be notified so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be
made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for plarming
and preliminary design purposes. We are not responsible for technical interpretations
by others of our information. As the project evolves, we should provide continued
consultation, conduct additional evaluations and review and monitor the implementation
of our recommendations. Significant design changes may require additional analysis or
modifications to the recommendations presented herein. We recommend on -site
observation of excavations and foundation bearing strata and testing of structural fill by
a representative of the geotechnical engineer.
