PROJECT INFORMATION AND SITE DESCRIPTION
Project Information
Development at the 1.26 -acre site will include construction of a two -story wood - framed building
and appurtenant pavement and utilities. No detailed structural information has been provided;
however, we have assumed that floor slab Toads will be less than 250 pounds per square foot
(psf), that continuous footing Toads will be Tess than 3 kips per linear foot (klf), and that site
grading will include cuts and fills of less than three feet.
Regional Geology
The site is located within the Willamette Valley geologic province in Tigard, Oregon. The
Willamette Valley was formed when the volcanic rocks of the Oregon Coast Range, originally
formed as submarine islands, were added onto the North American Continent. The volcanic
rocks slowly subsided forming a depression in which various types of marine sedimentary rocks
accumulated. Approximately 15 million years ago, these marine sediments were covered by
the Columbia River Basalts that flowed down the Columbia River Gorge as far south as Salem.
Uplift and tilting of the Oregon Coast Range and the western Cascade Range formed the
trough -like character of the Willamette Valley, and folded and faulted the Columbia River
Basalts. The ancestral Columbia River deposited sand and gravel in the northern part of the
valley near the site. Approximately 1.3 to 2.6 million years ago, a volcanic episode erupted the
Boring Lavas in several localized vents, including Mt. Scott, Mt. Sylvania, and Mt. Tabor.
Catastrophic floods washed into the Willamette Valley approximately 12,000 to 15,000 years
ago and deposited silt and fine- to coarse - grained sands and gravels (Pleistocene Flood
Deposits) throughout the region.
Site Geology
The site is located on the western margin of the Willamette Valley. The available mapping
(Madin, 1990 indicates that the site is underlain by fine-grained Pleistocene soils that resulted
from catastrophic flooding that ended approximately 12,000 years ago. Locally, the fine -
grained flood deposits are approximately 30 feet thick and underlain by various sedimentary
soils including Sandy River Mudstone and gravels of the Troutdale Formation. The depth to the
basement rocks, which consist of Columbia River basalts, basalts of Waverly Heights, and
associated undifferentiated sedimentary rocks, is approximately 300 feet. An inferred fault is
mapped approximately 1 /4 miles to the southwest of the site.

Site Surface Conditions
The site is bordered by SW 68 Parkway to the west, commercial development to the east, and
by forested areas to the north and south. The northern portion of the site is relatively level.
The southern portion of the site exhibits a gentle slope to the northwest. At the time of our
explorations, the surface of the site was covered with grasses, blackberry, small shrubs, and
small conifers and deciduous trees.
In alignment with the planned building site, directly west of SW 68 Parkway, site topography
includes a decrease in elevation of approximately 10 -12 feet to an existing heavily vegetated
swale. The roadway embankment is relatively planar and is raised relative to surrounding
grades to the west, which suggests that it has been constructed with substantial fill. The
planned building site may include some associated fill material as well, as site grades, in
general mimic the roadway surface.
We understand that an east -west trending drainpipe was installed within the building site and
underneath SW 68 Parkway some time in the past, most likely during the time of embankment
construction. The drainpipe inlet is located within the existing commercial development located
east of the site, bisects the central portion of the building site and SW 68th Parkway, and outlets
on the west side of the roadway embankment. Two manholes located at the surface of SW 68
Parkway are believed to be connected to this drainpipe to divert stormwater from the street.
However, the depth and exact location of this pipe within the building site is unknown.
Site Subsurface Conditions
Field Exploration
We excavated six test pits (TP -1 through TP -6) on May 11, 2004, to depths of up to 11.0 feet
bgs. The approximate test pit locations are shown on Figure 2. A member of CGT's staff
logged the soils observed in the test pits in general accordance with the Unified Soil
Classification System (USCS), collected samples, and performed in -situ testing. We have
provided an explanation of the USCS classification as Figure 3. Logs of the test pits are
presented in the attached Figures 4 through 9.
Subsurface Materials
Within the exterior of the site, including test pits TP -1, TP -3, and TP -5, our subsurface
explorations in general encountered up to 12 inches of very soft to stiff silt topsoil at the
Carlson Geotechnical Page 6 of 17

surface. The topsoil in test pit TP -1 included trace gravel. Below the silt topsoil, we
encountered stiff to hard native silt with trace to some sand that extended to the full depths of
our explorations, up to 10.0 feet bgs.
Within the central portion of the site, including test pits TP -2, TP -4, and TP -6, our subsurface
explorations encountered up to 12 inches of very soft to stiff silt topsoil fill. Below the silt topsoil
fill, we encountered stiff to very stiff silt fill with trace sand that extended to depths of up to 4
feet bgs. Below the silt fill, we encountered soft to medium stiff native silt with trace to some
organics (roots, wood debris) that extended to depths of up to 9 feet bgs. Below the organic silt
layer, we encountered soft to medium stiff sandy silt. The sandy silt extended to the full depth
of our exploration in test pit TP -2. In test pits TP -4 and TP -6, below the sandy silt layer, we
encountered very stiff to hard silt with trace sand that extended to the full depths of our
explorations, 9.5 feet bgs.
The subsurface materials are described in more detail on the attached test pit logs, Figures 4
through 9.
Ground Water
We encountered minor ground water seepage in test pits TP -2 and TP -4 at approximately 9 feet
and 8 feet, bgs, respectively. We anticipate that ground water levels will fluctuate due to
seasonal variations in precipitation, changes in site utilization, or other factors. Additionally the
site soils are conducive to the formation of a perched water table.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of our explorations and testing, the site may be developed as proposed,
providing that structures and pavements are not constructed over compressible, organic soils,
such as those encountered on the north side of the planned building location. Our site
observations and reconnaissance of the nearby topography indicates that this area was likely
an old swale that was filled at some time in the past. Although the consistency of the fill in this
area is likely adequate to support building loads, the soft silt located beneath the fill will
consolidate under additional loading, resulting in settlement with magnitudes that are
unacceptable for construction. In addition, the presence of wood and other organic debris in
this material will result in further long -term settlement.
Provisions to mitigate the adverse effects of this settlement will need to be undertaken prior to
construction of buildings within the filled swale. These provisions could include deep

foundations that derive support from the very stiff to hard silt located below the soft silts or over -
excavation of soft material and subsequent backfilling with imported granular, structural fill.
Alternatively, the planned structure could be relocated to avoid these soils. If this alternative is
chosen, the building may be supported on shallow spread foundations.
The following paragraphs present specific geotechnical recommendations for design and
construction of the proposed project.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Site Preparation
Where present, existing topsoil and excessively organic soils should be stripped and removed
from proposed building and pavement locations, and for a 5- foot - margin around such areas.
Based on our explorations, the depth of stripping of organic topsoil will be on the order of
12 inches. If the organic materials located within the filled swale are to be removed, we
anticipate that stripping depths will be on the order of up to 9 feet. Stripped material should be
transported off site for disposal or stockpiled for use in landscaped areas.
After site grading, and prior to excavation for footings, a representative from CGT should
observe the existing site subgrades to identify areas of excessive yielding. The subgrade
should be evaulated by proof rolling with a fully loaded dump truck. If areas of soft soil or
excessive yielding are identified, the material should be excavated and replaced with
compacted materials as recommended for structural fill. Areas that appear too soft and wet to
support proof rolling equipment should be prepared in accordance with recommendations for
wet weather construction given below.
Silt fences, hay bales, buffer zones of natural growth, sedimentation ponds, and granular haul
roads should be used as required to reduce sediment transport during construction to
acceptable levels. Measures to reduce erosion should be implemented in accordance with
Oregon Administrative rules 340 -41 -006 and 340 - 41-455 and Washington County regulations
regarding erosion control.
Wet Weather Considerations
The site soils are highly susceptible to disturbance during wet weather. Trafficability of the site
soils may be difficult and significant damage to subgrade soils could occur if earthwork is
undertaken without proper precautions at times when the exposed soils are more than a few
percentage points above optimum moisture content.
Carlson Geotechnical Page 8 of 17
Howard Veterinary Clinic
Tigard, Oregon
CGT# G0402317
May 20, 2004
For construction that occurs during the wet season, the site preparation activities may need to
be accomplished using track - mounted equipment, loading removed material into trucks
supported on granular haul roads, or other methods to limit soil disturbance. A qualified
geotechnical engineer or their representative should evaluate the subgrade during excavation
by probing rather than proof rolling. Soils that have been disturbed during site preparation
activities, or soft or loose areas identified during probing, should be removed and replaced with
structural fill.
Haul roads subjected to repeated heavy construction traffic will require a minimum of 18 inches
of imported granular material. Twelve inches of imported granular material should be sufficient
for Tight staging areas. The imported granular material should consist of crushed rock that is
well - graded between coarse and fine, contains no unsuitable materials or particles larger than
4 inches, and has less than 5 percent by weight passing the U.S. Standard No. 200 Sieve. The
imported granular material should be placed in one lift over the prepared, undisturbed subgrade
and compacted using a smooth -drum, nonvibratory roller.
We recommend that a geotextile be placed as a barrier between the subgrade and imported fill
in areas of repeated construction traffic. The geotextile should have a minimum Mullen burst
strength of 250 pounds per square inch for puncture resistance and an apparent opening size
(AOS) between the U.S. No. 70 and No. 100 Sieves.
Structural Fill
On -site Materials
Use of the on -site silts as structural fill may be difficult because the silt is sensitive to small
changes in moisture content and is difficult, if not impossible, to adequately compact during wet
weather. Moisture conditioning should be expected in order to achieve adequate compaction.
When used as structural fill, the on -site silts should be placed in lifts with a maximum thickness
of 8 inches and compacted to not less than 92 percent of the materials maximum dry density,
as determined by ASTM D1557. Fills should be tested for compaction every two vertical feet as
the fill is being placed.
If the on -site soils cannot be properly moisture - conditioned, we recommend using imported
granular material for structural fill.

CGT# G0402317
May 20, 2004
Imported Granular Material
Imported granular structural fill should consist of angular pit or quarry run rock, crushed rock, or
crushed gravel and sand that is fairly well - graded between coarse and fine particle sizes. The
fill should contain no organic matter or other deleterious materials, have a maximum particle
size of 3 inches, and have less than 5 percent passing the U.S. No. 200 Sieve. The percentage
of fines can be increased to 12 percent of the material passing the U.S. No. 200 Sieve, if placed
during dry weather and provided the fill material is moisture - conditioned, as necessary, for
proper compaction. The material should be placed in lifts with a maximum uncompacted
thickness of 12 inches and be compacted to not less than 95 percent of the maximum dry
density, as determined by ASTM D1557. During the wet season or when wet subgrade
conditions exist, the initial lift thickness should be increased to 24 inches and should be
compacted by rolling with a smooth -drum, nonvibratory roller. Fills should be tested for
compaction every two vertical feet as the fill is being placed.
Deep Foundations
We recommend that buildings located in the swale area be founded on aggregate piers, such
as Geopiers Geopiers are a proprietary foundation system that consists of installation of
short, aggregate piers through unsuitable soils. The Geopier contractor provides both design
and installation. If this foundation alternative is chosen, the aggregate piers should be
constructed through the silt fill and underlying deleterious materials and terminated in the very
stiff to hard silt. The piers should be constructed in accordance with design recommendations
provided by the Geopier
Shallow Foundations
We recommend that spread footings be founded on the very stiff to hard silts, or on structural fill
that is properly placed and compacted on these strata during construction. If soft or otherwise
unsuitable soils are encountered, they should be overexcavated as recommended by CGT.
The resulting overexcavation should be brought back to grade with granular structural fill. All
pads for overexcavated footings should be constructed a minimum of 6 inches wider for every
vertical foot of overexcavation.
We recommend that all spread footings have a minimum width of 24 inches, and the base of
the footings be founded at least 24 inches below the lowest adjacent grade. Continuous wall
footings should have a minimum width of 18 inches and be founded a minimum of 18 inches
below the lowest adjacent grade. Excavations near foundation footings should not extend
within a 1 H:1 V (horizontal to vertical) plane projected from the bottom of the footings.

CGT# G0402317
May 20, 2004
Bearing Pressure and Settlement
Footings founded as recommended should be proportioned for a maximum allowable soil
bearing pressure of 2,500 psf. This bearing pressure is a net bearing pressures and applies to
the total of dead and Tong -term live loads, and may be increased by 1/3 when considering
seismic or wind loads.
For the recommended design bearing pressures, total settlement of footings is anticipated to be
less than 1 inch. Differential settlements should not exceed %2 -inch.
Lateral Capacity
We recommend using a passive pressure of 250 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) for design, for
footings confined by the stiff to hard silts, or by new structural fill. In order to develop these
capacities, concrete must be poured neat in excavations, the adjacent grade must be level, and
the static ground water must remain below the base of the footing throughout the year.
Adjacent floor slabs, pavements, or the upper 12- inch -depth of adjacent, unpaved areas should
not be considered when calculating passive resistance.
A coefficient of friction equal to 0.32 may be used when calculating resistance to sliding for the
on -site silts.
Floor Slabs
Satisfactory subgrade support for floor slabs, supporting up to 200 psf area loading,
constructed on grade can be obtained from the stiff to hard silts, or on structural fill that is
properly placed and compacted on these strata during construction. A minimum 6- inch -thick
layer of crushed rock base, compacted to not less than 95 percent of the materials maximum
dry density, as determined in general accordance with ASTM D 1557, should be placed over
the prepared subgrade to provide a more uniform surface for placing the concrete, and
supporting the slabs. With the crushed rock base, a subgrade modulus of 150 pounds per
cubic inch can be used for the design of floor slabs. Floor slabs constructed as recommended
will likely settle less than 'A -inch. We recommend that slabs be jointed around columns and
walls to permit slabs and foundations to settle differentially.
Base rock material placed directly below the slab should be 3 / -inch maximum or less. The
surface of the base rock should be filled with sand just prior to concrete placement. Filling the
base rock surface reduces the lateral restraint on the bottom of the concrete during curing.

CG T# G0402317

Due to the presence of fine - grained, silt soils, moisture should be expected at the subgrade
surface. A capillary break, consisting of at least 6 inches of coarse granular material having
less than 5 percent of the material passing the U.S. Standard No. 200 Sieve, typically provides
protection against moisture. Where moisture vapor emission through the slab must be
minimized, e.g. impervious floor coverings, storage of moisture sensitive materials directly on
the slab surface, etc., a vapor retarding membrane or vapor barrier below the slab should be
considered. Factors such as cost, special considerations for construction, floor coverings, and
end use suggest that the decision regarding a vapor retarding membrane or vapor barrier be
made by the architect and owner.
Utility Trenches
Utility Trench Excavation
Trench cuts should stand near vertical to a depth of approximately 4 feet in the on -site silts and
clays provided no ground water seepage is observed in the sidewalls. If seepage is
encountered that undermines the stability of the trench, or caving of the side walls is observed
during excavation, the sidewalls should be flattened or shored.
Trench dewatering may be required to maintain dry working conditions if the invert elevations of
the proposed utilities are below the ground water level. Pumping from sumps located within the
trench will likely be effective in removing water resulting from seepage. If ground water is
present at the base of utility excavations, we recommend placing trench stabilization material
consisting of 1 foot of well - graded gravel, crushed gravel, or crushed rock with a minimum
particle size of 4 inches and Tess than 5 percent passing the U.S. Standard No. 4 Sieve at the
base of the excavation. The material should be free of organic matter and other deleterious
material and should be placed in one lift and compacted until well- keyed.
While we have described certain approaches to the trench excavation, it is the contractor's
responsibility to select the excavation and dewatering methods, to monitor the trench
excavations for safety, and to provide any shoring required to protect personnel and adjacent
improvements. All trench excavations should be in accordance with applicable OSHA and state
regulations.
Trench Backfill Material
Trench backfill for the utility pipe base and pipe zone should consist of well - graded granular
material containing no organic material or other deleterious material, have a maximum particle
size of 3 / -inch, and have less than 8 percent passing the U.S. Standard No. 200 Sieve.
Carlson Geotechnical Page 12 of 17
Howard Veterinary Clinic
Tigard, Oregon
CGT# G0402317
May 20, 2004
Backfill for the pipe base and within the pipe zone should be placed in maximum 12- inch -thick
lifts and compacted to not Tess than 90 percent of the maximum dry density, as determined by
ASTM D1557 or as recommended by the pipe manufacturer. Backfill above the pipe zone
should be placed in maximum 12- inch -thick lifts and compacted to not less than 92 percent of
the maximum dry density, as determined by ASTM D1557. Trench backfill located within 2 feet
of finish subgrade elevation should be placed in maximum 12- inch -thick lifts and compacted to
not less than 95 percent of the maximum dry density, as determined by ASTM D1557.
Drainage Considerations
We recommend that subsurface drains be connected to the nearest storm drain or other
suitable discharge point. We also recommend that paved surfaces, and ground near or
adjacent to the residences be sloped to drain away from the residences. Surface water from
pavement surfaces, and open spaces should be collected and routed to a suitable discharge
point. Runoff from roof and pavement areas should not be directed into the foundation drain
system. We do not recommend infiltrating storm water into the subsurface at this site.
Pavements
If pavements are to be located within the swale area, provisions will need to be undertaken to
mitigate the adverse effects of settlement due to the consolidation of the underlying soft silt and
organic debris. If the design team elects to eliminate the potential of settlement from these soft
and organic soils, overexcavation depths of up to 9 feet of soft materials and subsequent
backfilling with imported granular, structural fill will be required. If the design team elects not to
perform complete over - excavation work, some repair to the pavement section should be
expected over the life of the project.
After site stripping and preparation of the pavement area subgrade soils, we recommend
observing a proof roll of the pavement subgrade soils to identify areas of excessive yielding or
organic soils. If soft or organic soils are encountered in pavement areas during site preparation
activities, we recommend over excavating a minimum of two feet of these materials and
replacing them with granular structural fill.
For pavement subgrades in which the soft or organic subgrade soils are over excavated, we
recommend over excavating a minimum of two feet of the subgrade soils and replacing the
resulting excavation with granular structural fill. Structural fill should conform to the
recommendations for imported granular material recommendations presented in the structural

CGT# G0402317

fill section of this report. A representative of CGT should provide recommendations for
additional overexcavation depths based on observations during pavement subgrade
preparation.
We recommend using a pavement section of 21/2 inches of asphaltic concrete over 6 inches of
aggregate base in areas that will be exposed to Tess than 2 trucks and 100 passenger cars per
day.
The design of the recommended pavement section is based on an assumed California Bearing
Ratio (CBR) of 3 for the on -site silts, the assumption that the pavement subgrade within the
swale area consists of a minimum of two feet of granular structural fill properly placed during
construction, and the assumption that construction will be completed during an extended period
of dry weather. Increased base rock sections may be required in wet conditions in order to
support construction traffic, and protect the subgrade. Asphalt pavement, and base course
material should conform to the State of Oregon, Standard Specifications for Highway
Construction. Place aggregate base in one lift, and compact to not less than 95 percent of the
materials maximum dry density, as determined in general accordance with ASTM D 1557.
Retaining Structures
We recommend that retaining walls be founded on the stiff to hard native silt, or on new
structural fill that is properly installed during construction. If soft or organic soils are
encountered in the footing excavations, they should be overexcavated as recommended by the
geotechnical engineer. The resulting overexcavation should be brought back to grade with
suitable granular structural fill.
If retaining walls are to be located within the swale area, we recommend supporting the
proposed retaining structures on Geopier aggregate piers that are constructed through the silt
fill and underlying deleterious materials and are terminated in the very stiff to hard native silts.
The piers should be constructed in accordance with design recommendations provided by the
Geopier Corporation.
For walls not restrained from rotation, we recommend using an equivalent fluid pressure of
33 pcf for design. We recommend using an equivalent fluid pressure of 55 pcf for design of
walls restrained from rotation. When computing resistance to lateral Toads, we recommend
using a base friction coefficient of 0.32. Footings for the retaining walls should be designed for
a maximum bearing pressure of 2,500 psf.

Wall drains should include perforated drainpipe wrapped in a non -woven geotextile filter
installed behind the walls at the base. Walls should be backfilled with imported granular
material, as described in the "Structural Fill" section of this report.
The above design recommendations are based on the assumptions that: (1) the walls consist
of conventional cantilevered retaining walls or embedded building walls, (2) the walls are Tess
than 10 feet in height, (3) the backfill is level and drained and consists of imported granular
materials, and (4) no surcharges are imposed behind the wall. Reevaluation of our
recommendations will be required if the retaining wall design criteria for the project vary from
these assumptions.
Seismic Design
The site is located in Seismic Zone 3 of the 1997 Uniform Building Code. Based on our
understanding of the subsurface conditions, the UBC soil profile that best characterizes the site
is "S We recommend using a seismic coefficient of C = 0.36 and C,= 0.54 for site conditions
corresponding to the amplification of an SD soil profile. Based on the absence of loose sand to
silty sand soils beneath the ground water table within the depths explored on May 11, 2004,
there is a low risk of liquefaction of the on -site soils. If desired, a cone - penetrometer test and
liquefaction analysis could be performed at an additional cost to determine liquefaction potential
beneath the depths explored.
OBSERVATION OF CONSTRUCTION
Satisfactory pavement and earthwork performance depends to a large degree on the quality of
construction. Sufficient observation of the contractor's activities is a key part of determining
that the work is completed in accordance with the construction drawings and specifications.
Subsurface conditions observed during construction should be compared with those
encountered during subsurface explorations, and recognition of changed conditions often
requires experience. We recommend that qualified personnel visit the site with sufficient
frequency to detect whether subsurface conditions change significantly from those observed to
date and anticipated in this report.
We recommend that site stripping, rough grading, foundation and pavement subgrades, and
placement of engineered fill are observed by the project geotechnical engineer or their
representative. Because observation is typically performed on an on -call basis, we recommend
that the earthwork contractor be held contractually responsible for scheduling observation.

explorations. If subsurface conditions vary from those encountered in our site exploration, CGT
should be alerted to the change in conditions so that we may provide additional geotechnical
recommendations, if necessary. Observation by experienced geotechnical personnel should be
considered an integral part of the construction process.
The owner /developer is responsible for insuring that the project designers and contractors
implement our recommendations. When the design has been finalized, we recommend that the
design and specifications be reviewed by our firm to see that our recommendations have been
interpreted and implemented as intended. If design changes are made, we request that we be
retained to review our conclusions and recommendations and to provide a written modification
or verification.
The scope of our services does not include services related to construction safety precautions,
and our recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's methods, techniques,
sequences, or procedures, except as specifically described in our report for consideration in
design.
Within the limitations of scope, schedule, and budget, our services have been executed in
accordance with the generally accepted practices in this area at the time this report was
prepared. No warranty or other conditions express or implied, should be understood.
