(PSI) has completed a subsurFace exploration program at the <br /> above referenced project site. The proposed restaurant is located in the northern parking lot of <br /> the Everett Mall which has an address of 1402 SE Everett Mall Way in Everett, Snohomish <br /> County, Washington as shown on the Vicinity Map, Figure 1. The subsurface exploration was <br /> conducted to provide information needed for recommendations for site preparation and foundation <br /> design and construction for the referenced restaurant. The services herein were completed in <br /> general accordance with "Technical Consulting Services AgreemenY' dated May 18, 1999 <br /> between Darden and PSI. The following report presents the results of the study, as well as <br /> opinions and recommendations pertaining to the geotechnical aspects of the project. <br /> 1.0 PROJECT INFORMATION <br /> 1.1 Site Location and Proiect Description <br /> The Site Exploration Plan, Figure 2, shows the layout of the proposed restaurant. PSI has been <br /> provided with a site plan prepared by GHA Architecture/Development. <br /> PSI understands that the proposed Olive Garden restaurant will consist of a wood framed one- <br /> story building supported on conventional concrete foundations. The structure may have some <br /> exterior masonry, and there will be a concrete slab-on-grade. PSI anticipates that foundation <br /> loads will be approximately 1 to 3 kips per linear foot for strip footings, and that column loads will <br /> be as high as 50 to 75 kips. We understand that new pavements will not be constructed as part of <br /> this development. <br /> We expect that site grading will include cuts or fills of less than 2 feet. Please notify us if the <br /> design loads or site grading will be different from that assumed so that we can re-evaluate and <br /> modify our recommendations, if needed. <br /> The information presented in this section was used in the evaluation. Estimated loads and <br /> corresponding foundation sizes have a direct affect on the recommendations, including the type of <br /> foundation, the allowable bearing pressure, and the estimated settlement. In addition, estimated <br /> subgrade elevations and cut/fill depths also have a direct affect on the provided recommendations. <br /> Prolcssional Sen�ice IndusU�ics_Inc..24113—�G°i Avenue West_Mountlake'I�erracc.Wn 98043.Phonr 42S/24&2400.I�aa 425/248-2401 <br />
