stripping of Lots 83 through 86 on September 25, 2015. We observed prepared fill on Lot 54 from October 21, 2015 through October 23, 2016 and then from June 23, 2016 through July 6, 2016. We observed prepared fill on the southern portion of Lots 83 through 86 from September 26, 201 5 through September 30, 201 5. We used a Troxler 3430 nuclear density gauge to test compaction of the fill. We observed the prepared subgrades of Lots 54, 60, 85, and 86 on September 22, 2016. We observed the prepared subgrades of Lots 83 and 84 on September 27, 2016. Members of our geotechnical staff observed geotechnical-related tasks identified above on an intermittent and on-call basis. The results of our site visits were summarized in daily field reports, copies of which have been provided to Polygon Northwest, Pacific Community Design, and members of the design and construction team. To the extent observed, the construction outlined above for subgrade preparation of Lots 54, 60, and 83 through 86 at the West River Terrace residential development have been completed in general conformance with the intent of the project plans, specifications, and our geotechnical recommendations. Footings for the residences on all the lots at the site can be designed and constructed in accordance with the following recommendations from our December 5, 2014 geotechnical report. Footings can be proportioned for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 pounds per square foot. A higher value may be possible, depending on the grading plan. The allowable bearing pressure is a net bearing pressure; the weight of the footing and overlying backfill can be ignored in calculating footing size. The allowable bearing pressure applies to the total of dead plus long-term live loads and may be doubled for short-term loads, such as those resulting from wind or seismic forces. Continuous wall and spread footings should be at least 15 and 24 inches wide, respectively. The bottom of exterior footings should be at least 18 inches below the lowest adjacent final grade. The bottom of interior footings should be placed at least 12 inches below the base of the floor slab. For foundations designed in accordance with the recommendations provided above, total post- construction settlement is expected to be less than 1 inch and differential settlement between adjacent foundation elements is expected to be less than Y2 inch, given the anticipated building loads for wood-framed residences. In wet weather, we recommend placing a sufficient amount of crushed rock(typically 2 to 4 inches)to prevent disturbance to the foundation subgrades. The contractor is responsible for the construction sequencing and methodology for footing excavation and construction. Consequently, the actual amount of rock placed to protect foundation subgrades from disturbance in wet weather should be selected by the contractor. Rock used to protect the subgrades during wet weather should cover the foundation-bearing surfaces and be compacted until"well keyed." Any foundation subgrade soil that is disturbed should be removed prior to the placement of crushed rock and/or pouring of the foundations. Lateral loads on footings can be resisted by passive earth pressure on the sides of the structures and by friction on the base of the footings. Our analysis indicates that the available passive earth C DESIGNz 2 Polygon-123-03:093016 pressure for footings confined by structural fill, or footings constructed in direct contact with the undisturbed native soil or structural fill, is 350 pounds per cubic foot(pcf). Typically, the movement required to develop the available passive resistance may be relatively large;therefore, we recommend using a reduced passive pressure of 250 pcf. 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 0.35 may be used when calculating resistance to sliding. ♦ ♦ ♦ We appreciate the opportunity to work with you on this project.
