Measures taken may include covenng <br /> cu[ slopes with plastic shceting and diverting surface runoff away from[he top of cut slopes. We <br /> do not recommend vertical slopes for cuts deeper than 4 feet, if worker access is necessary. We <br /> recommend that cut slope heights and inclinations conform to local and WISHA/OSHA <br /> standards. <br /> We recommend that slope inclinations for shvctural fill and the cuts in the native soils be no <br /> steeper than 2H:1 V. LighAy compacted filis or common fills should be no steeper than 3H:1 V. <br /> Common fills are defined as fill material with some organics that are "trackrolled" into place. <br /> They would not meet the compaction specification of structural fill. Final slopes should be <br /> vegetated and covered with straw or jute netting. The vegetation should be maintained until it is <br /> established. <br /> Foundations <br /> General: Com�entional shallow spread foundations should be founded on undismrbed, medium <br /> dense to very de��se, glacial till, or be suppoRed on structural 611 or CDF extending to those soils. <br /> If the soil at the planned bottom of footing elevation is not medium dense to very dense, it should <br /> be overexcavated to expose suitable bearing soil, and the excavation should be filled with <br /> sWctural fill, or the footing may be deepened. The subgrade should be evaluated by a <br /> representative of CG prier to placement of the sWctural fill,rock spalls,CDF,or concrete for the <br /> foorings. <br /> If it is decided to overexcavate [he fill and replace it with structural fill, the overexcavation <br /> should extend beyond the edge of foo[inb ^! e 1H:1V. That is, for every 1 foot of fill � <br /> overexcavated bclow the footing, the excavation should extend 1 foot �vider than the edge of[he <br /> footi�g. [f rock spalls arc used to place as backfill, the excavation needs to only extend <br /> OSH:I.OV beyond the edge of foo[ing. All structural fill should be placed as described in the <br /> Structural Fill subsection of this ietter. <br /> CllF Trenchcs: Ar altemative to overexcavation of the fill and replacement with structural fill <br /> is to support the struchue on CDF trenches. This is accomplished by excavating a trench through <br /> Ihe fill, which is slightly wider than the fooiing. The bottom of the trench should expose medium <br /> Gornerstone Geotechnical, Inc.
