In order to understand the scope of the work intended under a permit application and expedite the
issuance of a permit it is important that complete information be provided. When reviewing a plan
and it's discovered that required information has not been provided by the applicant, this will result
in the delay of the permit issuance and in proceeding with building construction. The owner or
contractor shall be required to provide this information before the plan review can proceed. Other
plans that are in line for review may be given attention before the new information may be reviewed
after it has been provided to the Building Department.
Please review this document to determine if you have enough information to design your
project and provide adequate information to facilitate a plan review. Also, please consider
using a design professional for assistance in your design and a construction professional for
construction of your project. Any project with more than ten (10) occupants requires the plans
to be sealed by a Colorado Registered Design Professional.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of a subsoil study for a proposed residence to be located
on Lot 135, Ironbridge Development, Garfield County, Colorado. The project site is
shown on Figure 1. The purpose of the study was to develop recommendations for the
foundation design. The study was conducted as a supplement to our agreement for
geotechnical engineering services to L.B. Rose Ranch, LLC, dated November 20, 2002.
We previously conducted subsurface exploration to evaluate the collapse potential of
the non -irrigated debris fan areas within the development and presented the findings in a
report dated September 10, 1998, Job No. 197 327.
A field exploration program consisting of an exploratory boring was conducted to
obtain information on the subsurface conditions. Samples of the subsoils obtained
during the field exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine their
classification, compressibility potential and other engineering characteristics. 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. This report summarizes the data obtained during this study and
presents our conclusions, design recommendations and other geotechnical engineering
considerations based on the proposed construction and the subsoil conditions
encountered.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The specific building on the lot had not been determined at the time of our study. The
proposed residence will generally be a 1 and 2 story wood frame structure between
about 2,500 to 3,000 square feet in size. Ground floor will be slab -on -grade and/or
structural above crawlspace. A partial basement level may be provided. Grading for
the structure is assumed to be relatively minor with cut depths between about 3 to
6 feet. We assume relatively light foundation loadings, typical of the proposed type of
construction.
Job #101 196-1
-2 -
If building loadings, Location or grading plans change significantly from those described
above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations contained in this
report.
SITE CONDITIONS
The lot is located in the uphill, southwestern part of the development and was vacant at
the time of our study. The lot borders the downhill side of White Peaks Lane as shown
on Figure 1. The roadway and underground utility construction to the lot are complete.
The ground surface has a gentle slope down to the east with about 2 feet of elevation
difference across the building area. Vegetation consists of sagebrush, grass and weeds.
GEOLOGY
The geologic conditions were described in our previous report conducted for planning
and preliminary design of the subdivision development, dated October 29, 1997 , Job
No. 197 327. The southwest part of the subdivision is located above the historically
irrigated area on a relatively large debris fan that has been shown to be
hydrocompressive (settlement potential when wetted). A boring drilled in this general
area encountered the hydrocompressive soils to a depth of 75 feet above dense, river
gravel alluvium. The underlying bedrock consists of the Eagle Valley Evaporite which
contains gypsum and is generally associated with scattered sinkhole development in the
Roaring Fork Valley. The potential for subsidence due to dissolution of the rock
throughout the service life of the residence, in our opinion, is low. If further evaluation
of the sinkhole potential on the lot is desired, we should be contacted.
Job #101 196-1
3 -
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration for the project was conducted on May 7, 2003. One exploratory
boring was drilled at the location shown on Figure 1 to evaluate the subsurface
conditions. The boring was advanced with 4 inch diameter continuous flight augers
powered by a truck mounted Longyear BIC-51HD drill rig. The boring was 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. Depths at which the samples were taken and the
penetration resistance values are shown on the Log of Exploratory Boring, Figure 2.
The samples were returned to our laboratory for review by the project engineer and
testing.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
A graphic log of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site is shown on Figure 2.
The subsoils consist of about 6 inches of topsoil overlying stiff to very stiff and
relatively dry sandy silt and clay with scattered rock fragments. Larger rock fragments
to apparent cobble size were encountered below 171/2 feet and practical refusal to auger
drilling was encountered in the deposit at a depth of 221/ feet. No free water was
encountered at the time of drilling.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the boring included natural
moisture content and density, and finer than sand size gradation analyses. Results of
swell -consolidation testing performed on a relatively undisturbed drive sample,
presented on Figure 4, indicate low compressibility under existing low moisture
conditions and a low collapse potential (settlement under constant load) when wetted.
Job #101 196-1
c_-tecn
-4-
• The sample showed moderate to high compressibility when additionally loaded after
• wetted.
FOUNDATION BEARING CONDITIONS
The collapse potential of the subsoils encountered at the site appears consistent with our
previous findings for the non -irrigated areas of the development. The subsurface
conditions and laboratory test results indicate that the debris fan soils generally have
low to moderate collapse potential that decreases with depth. There is a risk of
settlement and distress to the building, driveway and utilities founded on the relatively
dry debris fan deposits if the subsoils were to become wetted. The magnitude of
settlement will depend on the depth and extent of wetting and the structure loading.
Lightly loaded spread footings placed on the natural soils should be suitable for support
of the residence with a risk of settlement and distress if the bearing soils become wetted.
Precautions to prevent wetting of the bearing soils need to be taken. These include: 1)
proper placement and compaction of backfill; 2) positive backfill slopes next to
foundations; 3) restricted landscape irrigation and/or use of xeriscape; and 4) gutters to
prevent roof runoff near the building.
Extensive wetting such as from water line leaks and heavy irrigation could result in
excessive settlements and distress. The settlement potential and risk of distress can be
reduced by supporting the building on a stiffened slab (mat) foundation, or ground
improvements, such as removal and replacement of the native soils compacted to at
least 95% of standard Proctor density at a moisture content at to 2% above optimum.
We expect that ground modifications would be limited to the upper 5 to 10 feet.
Recommendations for spread footings are presented below. If other foundation types
and subgrade treatment methods are proposed, we should be contacted.

DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
FOUNDATIONS
Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in the exploratory boring and the nature
of the proposed construction, we believe the residence can be founded with spread
footings bearing on the natural soils with some risk of settlement and distress if the
bearing soils become wetted.
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a spread
footing foundation system.
1) Footings placed on the undisturbed natural soils should be designed for
an allowable bearing pressure of 1,000 psf. Based on experience, we
expect initial settlement of footings designed and constructed as
discussed in this section will be less than 1 inch. Additional settlement
of about 2 inches or more could occur if the subsoils become wetted.
2) The footings should have a minimum width of 20 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 36 inches below exterior
grade is typically used in this area.
4) The foundation should be constructed in a "box like" configuration rather
than with isolated footings. The foundation walls should be heavily
reinforced top and bottom and designed to span local anomalies such as
by assuming an unsupported length of at least 15 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.
Job #101 196-1

5) The topsoil and any loose or disturbed soils should be removed and the
footing bearing level extended down to the natural soils, The exposed
soils in footing area should then be moistened to near optimum and
compacted.
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
computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 50 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.
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
Job #101 196-1

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 compacted to at least 95% of the maximum
standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum.
FLOOR SLABS
The natural on-site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly loaded slab -
on -grade construction. The soils are compressible when wetted under load and there
could be some settlement. To reduce the effects of some differential movement, non-
structural 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.
Job #101 196-1
Chttectn
-8 -
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 that local perched groundwater can 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 basement areas,
be protected from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an underdrain system.
An underdrain should not be provided around shallow foundations such as for
crawlspace and garage areas.
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 11/2 feet deep. An impervious
membrane 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 bearing
soils.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
Developing and maintaining positive drainage throughout the life of the residence is
critical to limiting potential settlement and distress to the building. The following
Job #101 196-1
Ge gtech
-9 -
drainage precautions should be observed during construction and maintained at all times
after'the residence has been completed:
1) Uncontrolled wetting 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.
Free -draining wall backfill should be capped with at least 2 feet of the
on-site soils to reduce surface water infiltration.
4) Roof gutters should be provided with downspouts that discharge well
beyond the limits of all backfill.
5) Landscaping which requires regular heavy irrigation should be located at
least 10 feet from foundation walls. Consideration should be given to
use of xeriscape to reduce the potential for wetting of soils below the
building caused by irrigation.
LIMITATIONS
This study has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical
engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty
either express or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted in this
report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory boring drilled at the
location indicated on Figure 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 boring 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 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 design purposes.
We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our 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 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.
