As you will see on the schematic drawings and information attached, the home will be provided with a gravity service from the home to a minimum sized 1,250 septic tank that can be either the standard poly tank (manufacturer provided) or a precast concrete septic tank. From the septic tank, the effluent supernatant will be transported to a proposed distribution box followed by the Infiltrator Quick4 trench disposal system. Each of the five proposed trenches is to be 96 feet long with 24 Quick4 Infiltrators to comprise the system. Standard end caps are proposed on the end of each trench along with inspection ports. The piping from the home to the tank, distribution box and infiltrator trenches shall be a minimum diameter of 4" diameter ASTM 3034 PVC. Locations of the new tank, distribution box and infiltrator trenches will be specified in the attached drawing plan of this package in an area located just south and east of the proposed building honoring property line, building, gulch, pond, well and easement setbacks. During soils testing, no groundwater or bedrock levels were found to exist within 8' of the ground surface (ie., 4 ft. of the bottom of the proposed infiltrators). The overburden soils were consistent and appeared to be a sandy clay loam material consistent with soil type 3 identified in Garfield County OWTS Regulations Table 10-1 in the upper 96" while a layer of slightly clayey, sandy, gravels exist below that (still consistent with Soil Type 3 and consistent with the CTL Thompson bores). Research was performed to gain insight on the specific soils parameter utilizing the NRCS WebSoil survey. The tactile soil analysis is consistent with the Heldt Clay Loam identified in the NRCS WebSoil Survey. The exhibits attached to this letter identify the information that was researched in addition to the testing performed to help determine the LTAR (Long Term Acceptance Rate) for the STA (Soil Treatment Area) for the design of the new disposal field. Exhibits are listed as follows: 1. Exhibit A: 2. Exhibit B: 3. Exhibit C: NRCS Soils Report CTL Thompson Soils Report OWTS Design and Details Based researched data, the LTAR for the on-site soils is 0.30 gallons per day per square foot. With this data, the STA (Soil Treatment Area) is 2,000 square feet. Because we will incorporate the use of Infiltrators chambers we have employed the size adjustment factors and reduced the trench size by the following: GLENWOOD SPRINGS 118 West Sixth St, Suite 200 1 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 1 970.945.1004 SSGM www.sgm-inc.com For using chambers, a 0.7 factor is applied, thus resulting is an area of 1,400 sf. This results in five infiltrator Quick4 chamber trenches of dimension 96' in length. The attached calculations identify the thought process in the design of this system. The design and layout of the system is shown on the attached drawing following this letter. Upon your receipt and review, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call.

They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers. Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand, protect, or enhance the environment. Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions. The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations. Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/ portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center (https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nres) or your NRCS State Soil Scientist (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/portal/nres/detail/soils/contactus/? cid=nres142p2_053951). Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to basements or underground installations. The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey. Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length, and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other biological activity. Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA. The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a specific location on the landscape. Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented by an understanding of the soil -vegetation -landscape relationship, are sufficient to verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries. Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units). Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil 5 Custom Soil Resource Report scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and research. The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map. The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape, and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the soil -landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at specific locations. Once the soil -landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded. These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color, depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil typically vary from one point to another across the landscape. Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other properties. While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field -observed characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management. Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same kinds of soil. Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example, soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date. After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and 6 Custom Soil Resource Report identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings, fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately. 7 Soil Map The soil map section includes the soil map for the defined area of interest, a list of soil map units on the map and extent of each map unit, and cartographic symbols displayed on the map.

Custom Soil Resource Report Map Unit Legend Map Unit Descriptions The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit. A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class. Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils. Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and miscellaneous areas on the landscape. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or 12 Map Unit Symbol Map Unit Name Acres in AOI Percent of AOI 29 41 Heldt clay loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes 2.1 0.5 34.5% Kim loam, 6 to 12 percent slopes 7.6% 56 Potts loam, 6 to 12 percent slopes 3.5 57.9% Totals for Area of Interest 6.1 100.0% Map Unit Descriptions The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area.

The delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however, onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions. Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil properties and qualities. Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement. Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness, salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series. Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas. These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups. A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar in all areas. Alpha -Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example. An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar. Alpha -Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example. 13 Custom Soil Resource Report Rifle Area, Colorado, Parts of Garfield and Mesa Counties 29—Heldt clay loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes Map Unit Setting National map unit symbol: jnxt Elevation: 5,000 to 6,000 feet Farmland classification: Farmland of statewide importance Map Unit Composition Heldt and similar soils: 90 percent Estimates are based on observations, descriptions, and transects of the mapunit.

No aggregation of data has occurred as is done in reports in the Soil Properties and Qualities and Suitabilities and Limitations sections. The reports contain soil interpretive information as well as basic soil properties and qualities. A description of each report (table) is included. Soil Physical Properties This folder contains a collection of tabular reports that present soil physical properties. The reports (tables) include all selected map units and components for each map unit. Soil physical properties are measured or inferred from direct observations in the field or laboratory. Examples of soil physical properties include percent clay, organic matter, saturated hydraulic conductivity, available water capacity, and bulk density. Engineering Properties (Burkett Property) This table gives the engineering classifications and the range of engineering properties for the layers of each soil in the survey area. Hydrologic soil group is a group of soils having similar runoff potential under similar storm and cover conditions. The criteria for determining Hydrologic soil group is found in the National Engineering Handbook, Chapter 7 issued May 2007(http:// directives.sc.egov.usda.gov/OpenNonWebContent.aspx?content=17757.wba). Listing HSGs by soil map unit component and not by soil series is a new concept for the engineers. Past engineering references contained lists of HSGs by soil series. Soil series are continually being defined and redefined, and the list of soil series names changes so frequently as to make the task of maintaining a single national list virtually impossible. Therefore, the criteria is now used to calculate the HSG using the component soil properties and no such national series lists will be maintained. All such references are obsolete and their use should be discontinued. Soil properties that influence runoff potential are those that influence the minimum rate of infiltration for a bare soil after prolonged wetting and when not frozen. These properties are depth to a seasonal high water table, saturated hydraulic conductivity after prolonged wetting, and depth to a layer with a very slow water transmission 17 Custom Soil Resource Report rate. Changes in soil properties caused by land management or climate changes also cause the hydrologic soil group to change. The influence of ground cover is treated independently. There are four hydrologic soil groups, A, B, C, and D, and three dual groups, A/D, B/D, and C/D. In the dual groups, the first letter is for drained areas and the second letter is for undrained areas. The four hydrologic soil groups are described in the following paragraphs: Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission. Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission. Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water transmission. Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink -swell potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission. Depth to the upper and lower boundaries of each layer is indicated. Texture is given in the standard terms used by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. These terms are defined according to percentages of sand, silt, and clay in the fraction of the soil that is less than 2 millimeters in diameter. "Loam," for example, is soil that is 7 to 27 percent clay, 28 to 50 percent silt, and less than 52 percent sand. If the content of particles coarser than sand is 15 percent or more, an appropriate modifier is added, for example, "gravelly." Classification of the soils is determined according to the Unified soil classification system (ASTM, 2005) and the system adopted by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO, 2004). The Unified system classifies soils according to properties that affect their use as construction material. Soils are classified according to particle -size distribution of the fraction less than 3 inches in diameter and according to plasticity index, liquid limit, and organic matter content. Sandy and gravelly soils are identified as GW, GP, GM, GC, SW, SP, SM, and SC; silty and clayey soils as ML, CL, OL, MH, CH, and OH; and highly organic soils as PT. Soils exhibiting engineering properties of two groups can have a dual classification, for example, CL -ML. The AASHTO system classifies soils according to those properties that affect roadway construction and maintenance. In this system, the fraction of a mineral soil that is less than 3 inches in diameter is classified in one of seven groups from A-1 through A-7 on the basis of particle -size distribution, liquid limit, and plasticity index. Soils in group A-1 are coarse grained and low in content of fines (silt and clay). At the other extreme, soils in group A-7 are fine grained. Highly organic soils are classified in group A-8 on the basis of visual inspection. If laboratory data are available, the A-1, A-2, and A-7 groups are further classified as A -1-a, A -1-b, A-2-4, A-2-5, A-2-6, A-2-7, A-7-5, or A-7-6. As an additional refinement, the suitability of a soil as subgrade material can be indicated by a group 18 Custom Soil Resource Report index number. Group index numbers range from 0 for the best subgrade material to 20 or higher for the poorest. Percentage of rock fragments larger than 10 inches in diameter and 3 to 10 inches in diameter are indicated as a percentage of the total soil on a dry -weight basis. The percentages are estimates determined mainly by converting volume percentage in the field to weight percentage. Three values are provided to identify the expected Low (L), Representative Value (R), and High (H). Percentage (of soil particles) passing designated sieves is the percentage of the soil fraction less than 3 inches in diameter based on an ovendry weight. The sieves, numbers 4, 10, 40, and 200 (USA Standard Series), have openings of 4.76, 2.00, 0.420, and 0.074 millimeters, respectively. Estimates are based on laboratory tests of soils sampled in the survey area and in nearby areas and on estimates made in the field. Three values are provided to identify the expected Low (L), Representative Value (R), and High (H). Liquid limit and plasticity index (Atterberg limits) indicate the plasticity characteristics of a soil. The estimates are based on test data from the survey area or from nearby areas and on field examination. Three values are provided to identify the expected Low (L), Representative Value (R), and High (H). References: American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). 2004.

GS06431.000-120 SCOPE This report presents the results of our geotechnical engineering investiga- tion for the Burkett Residence proposed on Tract 8, Antlers Orchard Develop- ment in Garfield County, Colorado. The scope of our geotechnical engineering investigation was set forth in our Proposal No. GS 19-0290. Our report was pre- pared from data developed from our field exploration, laboratory testing, engi- neering analysis, and our experience with similar conditions. This report includes a description of the subsurface conditions found in our exploratory borings and presents geotechnical engineering recommendations for design and construction of foundations, floor systems, below -grade walls, subsurface drain systems, and details influenced by the subsoils. A summary of our conclusions is below. SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS 1 Subsurface conditions encountered in our exploratory borings were about 2 inches of topsoil and 7 feet to 14 feet of predominantly clayey to silty sand underlain by clayey to silty gravel. Practical au- ger refusal occurred on bedrock fragments at a depth of 15 feet in all three borings. Free groundwater was not found in our explora- tory borings at the time of drilling. 2. Based on our field and laboratory data from the site, and our engi- neering experience, we judge the undisturbed natural soils at the site possess potential for moderate amounts of differential move- ment when wetted under building loads. The proposed residence and barn can be constructed on footing foundations, provided the soils below the entire areas of the building footprints are subexca- vated to a depth of at least 3 feet. The excavated soils can be mois- ture -treated and replaced as densely -compacted, structural fill. Recommendations for the subexcavation process and design crite- ria for footings are in the report. 3. Slab -on -grade floors are planned in basement and garage areas of the residence. The barn floor will also be a slab. After the recom- mended subexcavation and recompaction process is accomplished below the entire building footprints, we anticipate good performance BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 1 of slabs -on -grade supported by an at least 3 -foot thickness of densely -compacted, structural fill. 4. Below -grade areas in the buildings should be provided with perime- ter foundation drains to mitigate potential for subsurface wetting. Surface drainage should be designed to rapidly convey surface wa- ter away from the buildings. SITE CONDITIONS The Burkett Residence is proposed on Tract 8, Antlers Orchard Develop- ment in Garfield County, Colorado. A vicinity map with the location of the site is shown on Figure 1. The lot is a 10.417 -acre parcel accessed by County Road 237 at the east. An aerial photograph of the site is shown on Figure 2. A natural drainage swale trends down to the south in the eastern part of the property. Ground surface at the site generally slopes down to the southeast at grades less than 10 percent. Much of the property was likely flood -irrigated in the past. Veg- etation consists of mostly grasses and weeds. Several inches of snow covered the ground at the time of our subsurface investigation A photograph of the site at the time of our exploratory drilling is below. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 2 PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION We were provided with preliminary architectural plans by Royal Oak De-. sign (dated My 13, 2019). The plans indicate the residence will be a one and two-story, wood -framed building with a basement level and an attached garage. Slab -on -grade floors are proposed in basement and garage areas. A barn with a slab -on -grade floor is also proposed. Maximum excavation depths to attain foun- dation elevations for the residence will likely be on the order of 10 feet. We ex- pect excavation depths of less than 5 feet to obtain foundation depths for the barn. Typical foundation loads for this type of construction are about 1,000 to 3,000 pounds per linear foot of foundation wall with maximum 50 -kip interior col- umn loads. We should be provided with more detailed construction plans, when available, so that we can provide geotechnical/geo-structural engineering input. GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS As part of our geotechnical engineering investigation, we reviewed map- ping by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) titled, "Geology Map of the Silt Quadrangle, Garfield County, Colorado", by Shroba and Scott (dated 2001). The mapping indicates the overburden soils below most of the subject property con- sist of eolian loess deposits over pediment deposits that likely consist of the Shire Member of the Wasatch Bedrock Formation. The eolian loess deposits are prone to erosion and hydrocompaction. Undivided alluvium and colluvium de- posits are in the area of the drainage swale in the east part of the property. The Shire Member is described as consisting of intervals of claystone, mudstone, and siltstone interbedded with minor lenses of sandstone. Subsoils encountered in our exploratory borings drilled at the site are consistent with the loess over pedi- ment shown on the geologic mapping. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 3 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Subsurface conditions at the site were investigated by drilling three explor- atory borings (TH-1 through TH-3) at the approximate locations shown on Figure 2. Subsoils encountered in our borings were logged by our engineer, who ob- tained samples of the soils for laboratory testing. A photograph taken during drill- ing operations is below. Subsoils encountered in our exploratory borings were about 2 inches of topsoil underlain by clayey to silty gravel and 7 to 14 feet of predominately clayey to silty sand underlain by clayey to silty gravel and fragments of claystone, silt - stone, and sandstone bedrock. Practical auger refusal occurred on bedrock frag- ments at a depth of 15 feet in all three borings. Free groundwater was not en- countered in the borings at the time of drilling. PVC pipe was placed in TH-2 to facilitate future checks of groundwater. Graphic logs of the soils encountered in our exploratory borings are shown on Figure 3. Subsoil samples from our exploratory borings were returned to our labora- tory where field classifications were checked and representative samples were BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 4 selected for pertinent testing. Two samples soils selected for one-dimensional, swell -consolidation testing exhibited 1.0 percent consolidation and 0.3 percent swell when wetted under an applied load of 1,000 psf. Swell -consolidation test results are shown on Figure 4. Two samples of the soils selected for gradation analysis contained 1 to 29 percent gravel, 46 to 47 percent sand, and 24 to 53 percent silt and clay (passing the No. 200 sieve). Gradation test results are shown on Figure 5. Engineering index testing performed on one sample of clayey sand indicated a liquid limit of 36 percent and a plasticity index of 13 per- cent. Laboratory testing results are summarized on Table I. SITE EARTHWORK Excavations Excavations at the site to construct the proposed residence and barn can be accomplished using conventional, heavy-duty excavating equipment. From a "trench" safety standpoint, sides of excavations need to be sloped or braced to meet local, state and federal safety regulations. We expect the soils encoun- tered in excavations will classify as Type B or Type C soils based on OSHA standards governing excavations. Temporary excavation slopes that are not re- tained should be no steeper than 1 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) in Type B soils and 1.5 to 1 in Type C soils. Contractors are responsible for maintaining safe exca- vations. Free groundwater was not encountered in our exploratory borings. We do not anticipate excavations for construction of the building foundations will pene- trate the free groundwater table. We recommend excavations be sloped to grav- ity discharges or to temporary sumps where water from precipitation can be re- moved by pumping. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 5 Subexcavation and Structural Fill Based on our field and laboratory data from the site, and our engineering experience, the soils at the site possess potential for moderate amounts of differ- ential movement when wetted under building Toads. To reduce potential risk of differential movement, we recommend subexcavation of the soils below the en- tire building footprints to a depth of at least 3 feet below footing and slab eleva- tions and replacement with densely -compacted, structural fill. The subexcavation process should extend at least 1 foot beyond the perimeter of the building foot- prints. The subexcavated soils, free of organic matter, debris and rocks larger than 3 inches in diameter can be re -used as structural fill. The structural fill soils should be moisture -conditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content and placed in loose lifts of 8 inches thick or less. Structural fill should be com- pacted to at least 98 percent of standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density. Moisture content and density of structural fill should be checked by a representative of our firm during placement. Observation of the compaction pro- cedure is necessary. Foundation Wall Backfill Proper placement and compaction of foundation backfill is important to re- duce infiltration of surface water and settlement of backfill. The soils excavated from the site can be used as backfill, provided they are free of rocks larger than 3 -inches in diameter, organics, and debris. Backfill soils should be moisture -con- ditioned to within 2 percent of optimum moisture content placed in loose lifts of approximately 10 inches thick or Tess and compacted. Thickness of lifts will likely need to be about 6 inches if there are small confined areas of backfill, which limit the size and weight of compaction equipment. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 6 Backfill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of maximum standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) dry density. Moisture content and density of the backfill should be checked during placement by a representative of our firm. Observation of the compaction procedure is necessary. FOUNDATIONS Based on our field and laboratory data from the site, and our engineering experience, the undisturbed natural soils at the site possess potential for moder- ate amounts of differential movement when wetted under building loads. We judge the residence and barn can be constructed on footing foundations, pro- vided the soils below the entire areas of the building footprints are subexcavated to a depth of at least 3 feet below planned bottom of footing elevations. The ex- cavated soils can be moisture -treated and reused to build mats of densely -com- pacted, structural fill below the buildings. Structural fill should be processed, placed, and compacted in accordance with recommendations in the Subexcava- tion and Structural Fill section. We expect the subexcavation and structural fill process will result in good performance of footings, however, some risk of differential settlement will still ex- ist. It will be critical to adhere to recommendations in the SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE and SURFACE DRAINAGE sections. Recommended design and construction criteria for footing foundations are presented below. 1 The residence and barn can be constructed on footing foundations supported by an at least 3 -foot thickness of moisture -treated, densely -compacted structural fill soils in accordance with the Subexcavation and Structural Fill section. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 7 2. Footings on the structural fill can be sized using a maximum allowa- ble bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. 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 re- quired, 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 rec- ommend reinforcement sufficient to span an unsupported distance of at least 12 feet. 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. The Garfield County building department should be consulted regarding required frost protection depth. SLAB -ON -GRADE CONSTRUCTION Slab -on -grade floors are proposed in basement and garage areas of the residence. The barn floor will also be a slab -on -grade. Soils below the entire ar- eas of the building footprints should be subexcavated to a depth of at least 3 feet below planned bottom of slabs. The excavated soils can be moisture -treated and reused to build mats of densely -compacted, structural fill below the buildings. A 1 -foot thickness of structural fill is recommended below exterior slabs and flat - work. Sub -excavation and structural fill should be in accordance with the recom- mendations in the Subexcavation and Structural Fill section. We expect the subexcavation and structural fill process will result in good performance of slabs, however, some risk of differential settlement will still exist. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 8 It will be critical to adhere to recommendations in the SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE and SURFACE DRAINAGE sections. We recommend the following precautions for slab -on -grade construction at this site. 1 Slabs should be separated from exterior walls and interior bearing members with slip joints which allow free vertical movement of the slabs. 2. The use of underslab plumbing should be minimized. Underslab plumbing should be pressure tested for leaks before the slabs are constructed. Plumbing and utilities which pass through slabs should be isolated from the slabs with sleeves and provided with flexible couplings to slab supported appliances. 3. Exterior patio and porch slabs should be isolated from the building. These slabs should be well -reinforced to function as independent units. Movements of these slabs should not be transmitted to the building. 4. Frequent control joints should be provided, in accordance with American Concrete Institute (ACI) recommendations, to reduce problems associated with shrinkage and curling. FOUNDATION WALLS Foundation walls which extend below -grade should be designed for lateral earth pressures where backfill is not present to about the same extent on both sides of the wall, such as adjacent to basement and crawl space areas. Many factors affect the values of the design lateral earth pressure. These factors in- clude, but are not limited to, the type, compaction, slope and drainage of the backfill, and the rigidity of the wall against rotation and deflection. For a very rigid wall where negligible or very little deflection will occur, an "at -rest" lateral earth pressure should be used in design. For walls that can de- flect or rotate 0.5 to 1 percent of wall height (depending upon the backfill types), BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 9 lower "active" lateral earth pressures are appropriate. Our experience indicates typical below -grade walls in residences deflect or rotate slightly under normal de- sign loads, and that this deflection results in satisfactory wall performance. Thus, the earth pressures on the walls will likely be between the "active" and "at -rest" conditions. If the on-site soils are used as backfill and the backfill is not saturated, we recommend design of below -grade walls at this site using an equivalent fluid den- sity of at least 50 pcf. This value assumes deflection; some minor cracking of walls may occur. If very little wall deflection is desired, a higher design value for the "at -rest" condition is appropriate using an equivalent fluid pressure of 60 pcf. SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE Water from surface precipitation, snowmelt, and irrigation frequently flows through relatively permeable backfill placed adjacent to a residence and collects on the surface of less permeable soils occurring at the bottom of foundation ex- cavations. This process can cause wet or moist conditions in below -grade areas, such as basements and crawl spaces, after construction. It can also result in subsurface wetting below the building, which can cause volume changes in the soils and differential building movement and associated damage. We recommend that exterior foundation drains be installed around the pe- rimeters of the basement and other below -grade areas of the buildings. The ex- terior foundation drains should consist of 4 -inch diameter, slotted, PVC pipe en- cased in free -draining gravel. A prefabricated drainage composite should be placed adjacent to foundation walls. Care should be taken during backfill opera- tions to prevent damage to drainage composites. The drains should lead to posi- tive gravity outlets, or to sump pits where water can be removed by pumping. Gravity outlets should not be susceptible to clogging or freezing. Installation of clean -outs along the drain pipes is recommended. The foundation drain concept is shown on Figure 6. BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 10 SURFACE DRAINAGE Surface drainage is critical to the performance of foundations, floor slabs, and concrete flatwork. Surface drainage should be designed to provide rapid runoff of surface water away from the residence and barn. Proper surface drain- age and irrigation practices can help control the amount of surface water that penetrates to foundation levels and contributes to settlement or heave of soils and bedrock that support the foundation and slabs -on -grade. Positive drainage away from the foundations and avoidance of irrigation near the foundation also help to avoid excessive wetting of backfill soils, which can lead to increased backfill settlement and possibly to higher lateral earth pressures, due to in- creased weight and reduced strength of the backfill. We recommend the follow- ing precautions. 1. The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the residence and barn should be sloped to drain away from the building in all direc- tions. We recommend a minimum constructed slope of at least 12 inches in the first 10 feet (10 percent) in landscaped areas around the buildings, where practical. 2. Backfill around the foundation walls should be moistened and com- pacted pursuant to recommendations in the Foundation Wall Back- fill section. 3. Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the lim- its of all backfill. Splash blocks and/or extensions should be pro- vided at all downspouts so water discharges onto the ground be- yond the backfill. We generally recommend against burial of down- spout discharge. Where it is necessary to bury downspout dis- charge, solid, rigid pipe should be used, and it should slope to an open gravity outlet. 4. Irrigation should be limited to the minimum amount sufficient to maintain vegetation; application of more water will increase likeli- hood of slab and foundation movements. Landscaping should be carefully designed and maintained to minimize irrigation. Plants placed close to foundation walls should be limited to those with low BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 11 moisture requirements. Irrigated grass should not be located within 5 feet of the foundation. Sprinklers should not discharge within 5 feet of the foundation. Plastic sheeting should not be placed be- neath landscaped areas adjacent to foundation walls or grade beams. Geotextile fabric will inhibit weed growth yet still allow natu- ral evaporation to occur. CONCRETE Concrete in contact with soil can be subject to sulfate attack. We meas- ured a water-soluble sulfate concentration of 0.11 percent in one sample of the soils from the site. For this level of sulfate concentration, ACI 332-08, Code Re- quirements for Residential Concrete, indicates concrete shall be made with ASTM 6150 Type 11 cement, or an ASTM C595 or C1157 hydraulic cement meet- ing moderate sulfate -resistant hydraulic cement (MS) designation. Alternative combination of cements and supplementary cementations materials such as Class F fly ash, shall be permitted with accurate test records for sulfate durability. In our experience, superficial damage may occur to the exposed surfaces of highly -permeable concrete, even though sulfate levels are relatively low. To control this risk and to resist freeze -thaw deterioration, the water-to-cementitious materials ratio should not exceed 0.50 for concrete in contact with soils that are likely to stay moist due to surface drainage or high-water tables. Concrete should have a total air content of 6% +1- 1.5%. We recommend all foundation walls and grade beams in contact with the subsoils be damp -proofed. CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS We recommend that CTL 1 Thompson, Inc. be retained to provide con- struction observation and materials testing services for the project. This would allow us the opportunity to verify whether soil conditions are consistent with those found during this investigation. If others perform these observations, they must accept responsibility to judge whether the recommendations in this report remain appropriate. Our experience indicates it is beneficial to projects, from economic BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 12 and practical standpoints, when there is continuity between engineering consulta- tion and the construction observation and materials testing phases. STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING SERVICES CTL 1 Thompson, Inc. is a full-service geotechnical, structural, materials, and environmental engineering firm. Our services include preparation of struc- tural framing and foundation plans. We can also design earth retention systems. Based on our experience, CTL 1 Thompson, Inc. typically provides value to pro- jects from schedule and economic standpoints, due to our combined expertise and experience with geotechnical, structural, and materials engineering. We would like the opportunity to provide a proposal for structural engineering ser- vices on your project. 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 ge- otechnical recommendations do not comprise an exact science. The analytical tools which geotechnical engineers use are generally empirical and must be tem- pered by engineering judgment and experience. Therefore, the solutions or rec- ommendations presented in any geotechnical evaluation should not be consid- ered risk-free and, more importantly, are not a guarantee that the interaction be- tween 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 help the building perform satisfactorily. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the client for the purpose of providing geotechnical engineering design and construction criteria for the proposed residence. The information, conclusions, and recommendations BOB BURKETT BURKETT RESIDENCE PROJECT NO. GS06431.000-120 13 presented herein are based upon consideration of many factors including, but not limited to, the type of structures proposed, the geologic setting, and the subsur- face conditions encountered. The conclusions and recommendations contained in the report are not valid for use by others. Standards of practice continuously change in the area of geotechnical engineering. The recommendations provided in this report are appropriate for about three years. If the proposed project is not constructed within three years, we should be contacted to determine if we should update this report. LIMITATIONS Our exploratory borings provide a reasonably accurate picture of subsur- face conditions at the site. Variations in the subsurface conditions not indicated by the borings will occur. Our representative should be called to observe the subexcavation process and test moisture and density of structural fill during placement. 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 im- plied, is made. If we can be of further service in discussing the contents of this report, please call. CTL j THOMPSON, INC. Reviewed by: Ryan W. DeMars, E.I.T. mes D.
