Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Lot 2, Los
Adobes, Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. Thorne:
As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. performed a subsoil study for
design of foundations at the subject site. The study was conducted in accordance with
our agreement for geotechnical engineering services to you dated October 13, 1998.
The data obtained and our recommendations based on the proposed construction and
subsurface conditions encountered are presented in this report.
Proposed Construction: The proposed residence will be a two story wood frame
structure over a walkout basement located on the site in the area of Pits 1 to 3 as shown
on Fig. 1. Basement floor will be slab -on -grade. The house will step up the hillside
and may have a partial crawlspace on the uphill side. Cut depths are expected to range
up to about 10 feet. Foundation loadings for this type of construction are assumed to be
relatively light and typical of the proposed type of construction.
If building conditions or foundation loadings are significantly different from those
described above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in
this report.
Site Conditions: The site is located on a steeply sloping, south -facing hillside. An
existing dirt road switchbacks down through the building area. Cuts and fills up to 12
feet high have been made for the road. Bedrock of the Maroon Formation was
observed in a road cut for the northern switchback. The bedding dip appeared to be
down to the north at about 10°. The site is vegetated mainly with pinon forest and
scattered juniper trees and rabbit brush. There is about 50 feet of elevation difference
across the building envelope.
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by
excavating three exploratory pits in the proposed building area and observing a profile
pit that was previously excavated in the area of the proposed leach field. The pit
locations are shown on Fig. 1 and the logs of the pits are presented on Fig. 2. The
Ken Thorne
October 27, 1998
Page 2
subsurface conditions encountered, below a thin layer of topsoil and clay and silt,
consist of weathered siltstone and sandstone bedrock. The bedrock appears to be Eagle
Valley Formation siltstone in the lower part of the building area and Maroon Formation
siltstone/sandstone near the north side of the building envelope. The Maroon sandstone
beds can be massive and may be difficult to excavate. Results of swell -consolidation
testing performed on a relatively undisturbed sample of the shallow sandy clay and silt,
presented on Fig. 3, indicate moderate compressibility under existing moisture
conditions and light loading and a high collapse potential (settlement under constant
load) when wetted. About 3 feet of fill was encountered in Pit 1 on the downhill side of
the road switchback. The soils exposed in the leach field profile pit consisted of sandy
clay and silt with scattered gravel and cobbles to the pit depth of 10 feet. No free water
was observed in the pits at the time of excavation and the soils were slightly moist to
moist.
Subsidence Potential: Bedrock of the Pennsylvanian age Eagle Valley Evaporite
underlies the Los Adobes Subdivision at depth. These rocks are a sequence of
gypsiferous shale, fine-grained sandstone and siltstone with some massive beds of
gypsum and limestone. There is a possibility that massive gypsum deposits associated
with the Eagle Valley Evaporite 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. No
evidence of cavities was encountered in the subsurface materials; however, the
exploratory pits were relatively shallow, for foundation design only. 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 future ground subsidence on Lot 2
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 subsurface below the site is desired, we should
be contacted.
Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsurface conditions encountered in
the exploratory pits and the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend spread
footings placed on the undisturbed bedrock designed for an allowable bearing pressure
of 4,000 psf for support of the proposed residence. The upper soils tend to compress
after wetting and should be removed from the building foundation area. Footings should
H P
GEOTECH
Ken Thorne
October 27, 1998
Page 3
be a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls and 2 feet for columns. Loose
and disturbed soils and existing fill encountered at the foundation bearing level within
the excavation should be removed and the footing bearing level extended down to the
undisturbed bedrock. Exterior footings should be provided with adequate cover above
their bearing elevations for frost protection. Placement of footings at least 36 inches
below the exterior grade is typically used in this area. Continuous foundation walls
should be reinforced top and bottom to span local anomalies such as by assuming an
unsupported length of at least 10 feet. Foundation walls acting as retaining structures
should be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent fluid unit
weight of at least 50 pcf for the on-site soil as backfill.
Floor Slabs: The undisturbed bedrock is suitable to support lightly loaded slab -on -
grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential movement, the upper
soils should be removed and/or replaced compacted and 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
less than 50% passing 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 clay and gravel soils or imported road base gravel devoid of
vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock.
Underdrain System: Although free water was not encountered during our exploration,
it has been our experience in mountainous areas where bedrock is shallow that local
perched groundwater can develop during times of heavy precipitation or seasonal
runoff. Frozen ground during spring runoff can also 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.
H -P GEOTECH
Ken Thorne
October 27, 1998
Page 4
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 1'/2 feet deep.
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. Free -draining wall backfill should be
capped with about 2 feet of the on-site, finer graded soils to reduce
surface water infiltration.
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 pavement
and walkway areas. A swale may be needed uphill to direct surface
runoff around the residence.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of
all backfill.
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 expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted
in this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory pits excavated at the
locations indicated on Fig. 1 and to the depths shown on Fig. 2, 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 pits and
variations in the subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is
performed. If conditions encountered during construction appear different from those
H -P GEOTECH
Ken Thorne

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 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.
If you have any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know.

THE BY LAWS REQUIREMENT IN LOCATING YOUR FOUNDATION APPROPRIATELY WITH IN
THE BUILDING ENVELOPE. FOUNDATION CONSTRUCTION MAY COMMENCE AS YOU
DESIRE.
WITH RESPECT TO THE BUILDING PLANS SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL ON JULY 8th WE
REGRET TO INFORM YOU OF OUR INABILITY TO APPROVE THE FLOOR PLAN SUBMITTED.
AS YOU KNOW THE BY LAWS CALL FOR SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS WITH IN THE
DEVELOPMENT. IN SEEKING ADVICE FROM THE GARFIELD BUILDING DEPARTMENT
THEY HAVE INFORMED US THAT YOUR PLANS DO NOT MEET THIS DEFINITION. THE
FIRST FLOOR OF THE HOUSE SHOWS A COMPLETE KITCHEN AND A BEDROOM WITH
CLOSETS THAT MAY BE SEPARATED FROM THE REST OF THE HOUSE BY PARTITIONS AND
DOORS. THESE CRITERIA COLLECTIVELY CREATE A SEPARATE LIVING AREA AND
THEREFORE PLACE THE RESIDENCE IN A NON SINGLE FAMILY DEFINITION.
I AM SORRY I DID NOT PICK UP ON THIS EARLIER AS I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM IN MY
FLOOR PLAN. UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME IT REQUIRED AN EXTENSIVE RE VAMP OF MY
PLAN AND SOME DEMOLITION OF WORK ALREADY IN PROGRESS.
MOVING FORWARD, YOUR PLAN IS QUITE COMPLETE AND LOOKS GREAT. AREAS NOT
ADDRESSED ON THE PLANS BUT COVERED VERBALLY THAT WE WILL NEED
DOCUMENTATION FOR ARE:
COLOR OF STUCCO OR EXTERIOR FINISH.
WINDOW SCHEDULE AND EXTERIOR COLOR OF TRIM / MOLDING.
COLOR AND TYPE OF PIPE OR COVERING OF WINDOW AWNINGS.
DETAILS DEPICTING PROPOSED RADIUS OF ALL CORNERS AND PARAPET.
AT THE REQUEST OF THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT WE HAVE FORWARDED A COPY OF
THIS LETTER TO DON OWENS, CHIEF BUILDING INSPECTOR. I HAVE WORKED WITH DON
IN THE PAST AND FOUND HIM VERY HELPFUL IN EXPLAINING THE NUANCES OF THE

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. Adequate and complete
information will prevent delays in the plan review process. Reviewing a plan and the discovery that
required information has not been provided by the applicant may result in the delay of the permit
issuance and in proceeding with building construction. The owner or contractor may be required to
provide this information before the plan review may proceed. This causes delays because 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. If you do not, it may be
helpful to obtain a book titled "Dwelling Construction under the Uniform Building Code".
This book is available to you through this department at our cost. Also, please consider using
a design professional for assistance in your design and a construction professional for
construction of your project.
To provide for a more understandable plan in order to determine compliance with the building,
plumbing and mechanical codes, applicants are requested to review the following check list prior to
and during design. Applicants are required to indicate appropriately and to submit the completed
check list at time of application for a permit.

From the Desk of: Ken Thorne & Sylvia Lushan
Friday, March 02, 2001
To: Mr. Mark Bean
Planning Director
Garfield County, CO
Dear Sir:
This letter is to confirm our discussion of February 28th 2001 to address
the issue of our approved Wet Bar and Barbeque area located on the lower level of our
home at 0324 Los Adobes Drive, Carbondale, CO 81623.
It is our intention to use this dwelling solely as a single family residence
and to use this lower area of our home for the exclusive use of our family and or domestic
help as may be required to maintain our quality of life.
In the unlikely event that we should offer our property for sale we will not
represent in any fashion that the property is anything other than a single family residence.
Furthermore, in the event of a sale we agree to remove the stove and refrigerator. This
agreement shall become null and void should we receive a use permit issued by Garfield
County permitting an additional kitchen at that location.
Sincerely,
Sylvia Lushan
Kenneth W. Thorne
