This is to certify that we have performed special inspection of the following items related to the
above project.
• Footing excavation depth
• Placement of forms
• Backfill and compaction
• Verification of soil bearing pressure
All observations and tests were performed on an on -call basis. Based on the results of our
observations and testing, and to the best of our knowledge, the work has been completed in
general conformance with the recommendations of our geotechnical report and later project
memoranda and recommendations.
Our reports pertain to the material tested /observed only. Information contained herein is not to be
reproduced, except in full, without prior authorization from this office. If there are any further
questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

FIELD OBSERVATION REPORT
DATES COVERED: June 22, 2000
PROJECT: Duncan Building
ADDRESS: 16135 SW 74th, Tigard, OR
BY: Tim Blackwood, Brian Leach
Carlson Geotechnical (CGT) visited the site to observe site conditions of the subject building and
discuss the project with the owners, John and Jan Duncan. Tim Blackwood and Brian Leach
represented Carlson. When we arrived, we met with the Duncans.
At the time of our meeting, the building was generally complete, except interior non - structural work
such as painting. We walked the perimeter and interior of the building to look for any signs of building
distress. Our observations of the visible portions of the foundations and all the exterior walls (masonry
block walls) noted no cracks, areas of settlement, or other signs of distress or unacceptable
performance. We also observed no such features in paved and parking areas, which extended around
the building on the north and west sides of the building.
We also observed the slab -on -grade floor and interior column footings. Our observations of the column
footings did not note any indications of cracking, settlement or other signs of distress. At the time of our
observations the flooring had not yet been installed and the concrete slab was generally free of cracks.
However, in the south approximately 1 /3 to '/a of the building, there were some cracks that extended
outward from at least two of the interior column footings. There were also two or three other cracks that
crossed the floor between joints, but that were not associated with the interior columns. There was not
any significant offset associated with the cracks we observed at this time, so they are most likely not
related to the soil settlement. Mr. Duncan stated they used a different concrete supplier in this portion
of the building, that it was poured at a different time than the rest of the slab, and that the cracks
showed up right away. This also suggests the cracking is not related to the soils.
We also discussed excavation of the footings for the structure. CGT visited the project on several
occasions during footing excavation. These visits were not individually documented, but, in general,
footing excavations were 18 to 36 inches deep as documented in a follow -up field report by Brian Leach
of CGT, dated April 19, 2000. However, along the west side of the building, Mr. Duncan indicated that
the footing excavations were at least 4 feet, and as much as 5 to 6 feet deep locally. Brian concurred
with these depths. Mr. Duncan stated that crushed rock was compacted in lifts to a well -keyed state in
the footing excavations. Brian indicated that he observed the compacted rock on a part-time basis and
that, at the locations he observed, the rock was well -keyed and suitable for foundation support.
Based on our observations and discussion with the Duncans, the building does not exhibit indications of
settlement or other soils related problems and appears to have been constructed in general accordance
with the recommendations of our geotechnical report and follow -up memoranda.

FIELD OBSERVATION REPORT
PROJECT: Duncan Building
ADDRESS: Tigard, Oregon
PURPOSE: Review of Foundation Subgrade
WEATHER: Clear & Warm
BY: Brian Leach, E.I.
CGT engineering associate, Brian Leach, arrived on site to review the completed excavation for the
proposed foundation at the above referenced project. The excavation for the footings extended down
between 18 and 36 inches. The subgrade soils at the bottom of the excavation consisted of a hard,
brown, gravelly silt (fill). CGT probed the subgrade soils with a ' /z" steel rod. Our probing indicated that
the fill was very dense to hard with the probe penetrating less than 1 inch in any area.
CGT also reviewed the horizontal footing -to -slope setbacks along Fanno Creek. From our review of the
forms, the proposed foundation has achieved a minimum footing -to -slope setback of 20 feet.
Based on our observations and probing, the observed subgrade soils are considered suitable for support
of the proposed foundation to the design bearing pressure and have been prepared in general
accordance to the project plans and specifications and our recommendations. In addition the footing -to-
slope setbacks are considered adequate.
This report pertains to the material tested /observed within the foundation excavation only. Information
contained herein is not to be reproduced, except in full, without prior authorization from this office. If there
are any further questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
