The purpose of our site visit was to observe the soils exposed at footing elevations. CTL I Thompson, Inc. performed a soils and foundation investigation for the commercial building (CTL I Thompson, Inc. Project No. GS05441-125, dated December 17, 2009). The soils exposed at the bottom of the foundation excavation consist of natural clay for most of the building. These soils are similar to the soils encountered during our soils and foundation investigation. Fill consisting of a sandy clay with shale pieces and some trash was observed at the southeast corner of the planned building. This fill was removed. The resulting excavation was backfilled reusing the on-site clay soils. The structural fill supporting the planned footings was tested during placement and is suitable for support of the planned footings. We appreciate the opportunity to work with you on this project.

PROJECT NO. GS05441~125 S:\GS05441,OOO\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc SCOPE This report presents the results of our soils and foundation investigation for the two proposed pre-engineered steel buildings for S2M Construction Co, Inc. to be located at 38200 South River Frontage Road in New Castle, Colorado. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the site and subsurface conditions and provide geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. Our report was prepared from data developed during our field exploration, laboratory testing, engineering analysis and our experience with similar conditions. Building plans were being developed at the time of our investigation. We should be provided with final construction plans, when available, so that we can provide geotechnical input and check that the recommendations in this report are appropriate. A summary of our conclusions is presented below. SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS 1. Subsurface conditions observed in our exploratory pits consisted of about nil to 1 foot of clayey gravel fill with cobbles underlain by silty to sandy clay to the maximum explored depth of 10 feet below ground surface. Free ground water was not found in our exploratory pits atthe time of exploratory excavation operations. 2. We recommend constructing the buildings on footing foundations that are supported by the undisturbed, natural clay soil. Design and construction criteria for footings are presented in the report. 3. We judge that slab-on-grade construction can be supported by the undisturbed, natural soil with low potential risk of differential movement. Structural fill below slabs should be placed and compacted as outlined in the report. 4. Surface drainage should be designed to provide for rapid removal of surface water away from the proposed buildings. S2M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO, GS05441·125 S:\G505441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 1 SITE CONDITIONS The buildings will be located at 38200 South River Frontage Road in New Castle, Colorado. The site is currently developed with a pre-engineered steel building on the east portion of the site. The remainder of the approximately 4 acre site consists of parking and equipment storage areas, and undeveloped land. South River Frontage Road borders the site to the north, with 1-70 beyond. Rippy Lane borders the site on the south. Surrounding properties are developed with similar preengineered steel buildings. The Colorado River borders the southeast portion of the site. Ground surfaces on the lot are relatively flat, sloping down to the south at grades of about 5 percent or less. Approximately 6 to 8 inches of snow covered the site at the time of our investigation. ANTICIPATED CONSTRUCTION Building plans were being developed at the time of our investigation. We understand that construction at the site will consist of two, 6,000 square foot preengineered steel buildings on the western portion of the site. Slab-on-grade floors are desired by the client. We expect maximum foundation excavation depths of about 3 feet will be required (for frost protection). Foundation loads for the buildings are expected to vary between 1,000 and 3,000 pounds per lineal foot of foundation wall with maximum interior column loads of 50 kips. We should review construction plans to provide geotechnical engineering input. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS To investigate subsurface conditions below the site, we directed the excavation of three exploratory pits (TP-1 through TP-3). Exploratory pits were excavated with a backhoe at the approximate locations shown on Figure 1. Excavation operations were directed by our laboratory/field manager who logged the S2M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO. GS05441·125 S:\GS05441.000\12S\2. Reports\GS05441 125 R1.doc 2 soils observed in the pits and obtained samples. Graphic logs ofthe soils observed in our exploratory pits are shown on Figure 2. Subsurface conditions observed in our exploratory pits consisted of about nil to 1 foot of clayey gravel fill with cobbles underlain by silty to sandy clay. Our observations during excavation operations indicated the clay was medium stiff to stiff. Free ground water was not found in our exploratory pits at the time of excavation. Pits were backfilled immediately after exploratory excavation operations were completed. Samples obtained from our pits were returned to our laboratory where field classifications were checked and typical samples selected for laboratory testing. Three samples of the clay were selected for one-dimensional, swell-consolidation testing. During the test procedure, the sample was loaded with 1,000 psf and then flooded. The resulting volume change (i.e., swell or consolidation) was then measured. The sample tested exhibited between 0.1 and 1.6 percent swell. The samples were then loaded back to the original volume to determine the swell pressures. Measured Atterberg limits on a clay sample was a liquid limit of 46 percent and plasticity index of 24 percent. The sample was 92 percent silt and clay sized particles (passing the No. 200 sieve). Results of swell-consolidation testing are shown on Figures 3 and 4. Laboratory test results are summarized on Table I. SITE EARTHWORK Excavation Existing fill at the site should be removed below the building footprints. We do not believe significant fill thickness will be found. We anticipate that maximum excavation depths of about 3 feet will be required for the removal of existing fill and for frost protection. Excavations can be accomplished using conventional, heavy-duty excavation equipment. Sides of excavations need to be sloped or braced to meet 52M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO, GS05441~125 S:\GS05441 ,000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 3 local, state and federal safety regulations. We expect the soils will classify as a Type B soil based on OSHA standards governing excavations. Temporary slopes deeper than 5 feet that are not retained should be no steeper than 1 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) in Type B soils according to OSHA standards. Contractors are responsible for providing safe and stable excavations. Site safety and maintenance is the contractor's responsibility. Free ground water was not found in our exploratory pits during excavation operations. We do not expect that the proposed excavations will penetrate the free ground water table. Structural Fill Structural fill may be required to attain subgrade elevation for the floor slabs after existing fill soils are removed. The on-site soils can be used as structural fill, provided they are free of rocks larger than 3-inches in diameter, organics and debris. The structural fill should be placed in loose lifts of 10 inches thick or less, moisturetreated to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content, and compacted to at least 100 percent of standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density. The natural subgrade soils should be stripped of organic soils and existing fill, scarified to between 8 and 10 inches, moisture treated and compacted prior to placement of fill. Our representative should be called to check density and moisture content of structural fill during placement. Backfill Proper placement and compaction of backfill adjacent to foundation walls is important to reduce infiltration of surface water and subsequent wetting offoundation soils. The natural excavated soils can be reused as backfill, provided they are free of rocks larger than 4-inches in diameter, organics and debris. Backfill should be placed in loose lifts of approximately 10-inch thickness or less, moisture-conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content, and compacted to least 95 percent of S2M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO. G505441·125 S:\GS05441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 4 standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density. Moisture content and density of the backfill should be checked during placement by a representative of our firm. FOUNDATIONS The proposed buildings can be founded on footing foundations that are supported by the undisturbed, natural clay soil. Our representative should be called to observe conditions in the completed foundation excavation to confirm that the exposed soils are as anticipated and suitable for support of the designed foundations. We expect that footings designed and constructed as recommended will experience total settlement of about 1 inch. A high degree of care will be required to prevent wetting of the soils below the building. Adherence to the recommendations in the SURFACE DRAINAGE section will be critical. A positive alternative to footing foundations and slab-on-grade would be construction of a mat foundation. The mat foundation would be both the foundation and the floor slab. A mat would reduce differential movement if the soils below the building are wetted. We can provide criteria for a mat foundation, if requested. Recommended design and construction criteria for footings are presented below. 1. The footing foundations should be supported by the undisturbed, natural soil. Soils loosened during the excavation or forming process for the footings should be removed prior to placing concrete. 2. Footings should be designed for a maximum soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. A friction factor of 0.30 between concrete footings and the clay soil can be used to calculate resistance to sliding. 3. Continuous wall footings should have a minimum width of at least 16 inches. Foundations for isolated columns should have minimum dimensions of 24 inches by 24 inches. Larger sizes may be required, depending upon foundation loads. 4. Grade beams and foundation walls should be well reinforced, top and bottom, to span undisclosed loose or soft soil pockets. We recommend reinforcement sufficient to span an unsupported distance of at least 12 feet. Reinforcement should be designed by the structural engineer. S2M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO. G505441-125 8:\G505441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 5 5. The soils under exterior footings should be protected from freezing. We recommend the bottom of footings be constructed at a depth of at least 36 inches below finished exterior grades for frost protection. The appropriate building department should be called to verify frost protection depth requirements. FLOOR SYSTEM AND SLABS-ON-GRADE Slab-on-grade floors are desired by the client. Existing fill should be removed from below the proposed building footprints. Based on our field and laboratory data, and our experience, we judge that slab-on-grade construction cal' be supported by the unchsturbed, natural soils at this site with low potential risk of differential movement The recommendations in the SURFACE DRAINAGE section will be critical to reducing the risk of wetting of soils below slabs. Structural fill below slabs should be placed and compacted as outlined in the Structural Fill section. A mat foundation should be considered if only minimal floor movement and slab cracking is acceptable. We recommend the following precautions for slab-on-grade construction at this site. 1. Slabs should be separated from wall footings and column pads with slip joints which allow free vertical movement of the slabs. 2. Underslab plumbing should be pressure tested for leaks before the slabs are poured. Plumbing and utilities Which pass through slabs should be isolated from the slabs with sleeves and provided with couplings to slab-supported appliances. 3. Exterior patio and porch slabs should be isolated from the buildings. These slabs should be well-reinforced to function as independent units. 4. Frequent control joints should be provided, in accordance with American Concrete Institute (ACI) recommendations, to reduce problems associated with shrinkage and curling. BELOW-GRADE CONSTRUCTION We understand that below-grade areas are not planned for the pre-engineered steel buildings. If plans change, we should be informed so that we can provide S2M CONSTRUCTION CO,, INC. PROJECT NO, G505441-125 5;\G505441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 6 recommendations for below-grade construction. If required by the structural engineer for foundation wall design, a value of 50 pcf can be used for the "at-rest" lateral earth pressure condition associated with foundation walls. SURFACE DRAINAGE Surface drainage is critical to the performance of foundations, floor slabs and concrete flatwork. We recommend the following precautions be observed during construction and maintained at all times after the buildings are completed: 1. The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the buildings should be sloped to drain away from the buildings in all directions. We suggesta slope of at least 6 inches in the first 5 feet around buildings. 2. Backfill around the exterior of foundation walls should be placed as recommended in the Backfill section. Increases in the moisture content of the backfill soils after placement often results in settlement. Settlement is most common adjacent to north facing walls. 3. The buildings should be provided with roof gutters and downspouts. Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill. Splash blocks and downspout extensions should be provided at all discharge points. 4. Landscaping should be carefully designed to minimize irrigation. Plants used near foundation walls should be limited to those with low moisture requirements; irrigated grass should not be located within 5 feet of the foundations. Sprinklers should not discharge within 5 feet of the foundation and should be directed away from the buildings. 5. Impervious plastic membranes should not be used to cover the ground surface immediately surrounding the buildings. These membranes tend to trap moisture and prevent normal evaporation from occurring. Geotextile fabrics can be used to control weed growth and allow some evaporation to occur. S2M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO, GS05441·125 5:\G505441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 7 FINAL DESIGN CONSULTATION AND CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of S2M Constructior. Co., Inc. for the purpose of providing geotechnical criteria for the proposed project The information, conclusions and recommendations presented herein are based upon the considerations of many factors including, but not limited to, the type of structures proposed, the configuration of the structures, the geologic setting, and the subsurface conditions encountered. The conclusions and recommendations contained in the report are not valid for use by others. It is recommended that CTL I Thompson, Inc. be retained to provide general review of the construction plans. Our firm should also be retained to provide geotechnical engineering and materia! testing during construction of the site grading, utilities, and drainage features. The purpose is to observe the construction with respect to the geotechnical design concepts, specifications or recommendations, and to facilitate design changes in areas where the subsurface conditions differ from those anticipated prior to the start of construction. GEOTECHNICAL RISK The concept of risk is an important aspect of any geotechnical evaluation. The primary reason for this is that the analytical methods used to develop geotechnical recommendations do not comprise an exact science. The analytical tools which geotechnical engineers use are generally empirical and must be tempered by engineering judgment and experience. Therefore, the solutions or recommendations presented in any geotechnical evaluation should not be considered risk-free and, more importantly, are not a guarantee that the interaction between the soils and the proposed structure will perform as desired or intended. What the engineering recommendations presented in the preceding sections do constitute is our estimate, based on the information generated during this and previous evaluations and our experience in working with these conditions, of those measures that are necessary to 82M CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. PROJECT NO. GS05441·125 S:\GS05441.000\125\2. Reports\GS05441125 R1.doc 8 help the buildings perform satisfactorily. The designer, builder, and future owners must understand this concept of risk, as it is they who must decide what is an acceptable level of risk for the proposed development of the site. LIMITATIONS Our exploratory pits were located to obtain a reasonably accurate picture of subsurface conditions. Variations in the subsurface conditions not indicated by our pits will occur. We should observe the completed foundation excavations to confirm that subsurface conditions are as anticipated. This investigation was conducted in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by geotechnical engineers currently practicing under similar conditions in the locality of this project. No warranty, express or implied, is made. If we can be of further service in discussing the contents of this report, please call. 82M CONSTRUCTlON CO., INC. PROJECT NO.
