In our opinion, soil nailing is <br /> • also a feasible alternative for excavation shoring. For purposes of this study, we have provided <br /> recommendations for soil nailing, and recommendations for cantilever and tieback shoring. It is <br /> • important to note that if tiebacks or soil nails are utilized, appropriate easements will be required <br /> • from adjacent property owners to accommodate the tendons and nails, as appropriate. <br /> • Soil Nail Wall Recommendations <br /> • <br /> • Based on the soil conditions encountered during our fieldwork, the soil conditions are generally <br /> • favorable for soil nail walls. For design purposes, the following design parameters can be <br /> • considered for temporary soil nail walls: <br /> • • Internal Angle of Friction 38 degrees <br /> • <br /> • • Cohesion 250 psf <br /> • • Allowable Pullout 4.0 kips per foot <br /> • <br /> • • Soil Moist Unit Weight 125 pcf <br /> • • Maximum Nail Spacing 6 feet (horizontal /vertical) <br /> • <br /> • The above design parameters are intended for preliminary analysis of a soil nail wall design. <br /> • Modification of these values by the geotechnical engineer may be appropriate during the design <br /> • process, based on the results of the analyses. With respect to soil nail shotcrete facing, <br /> • temporary or permanent (foundation wall) facing can be considered as part of the top-down <br /> construction. The soil nail wall designer will need to consider shotcrete thickness and <br /> ! reinforcement requirements, as appropriate for temporary or permanent facings. <br /> = Cantilever and Single Tieback Soldier Piles <br /> • Temporary shoring should be designed to resist lateral soil pressure based on an active.earth <br /> • pressure condition. Surcharge loading from adjacent roadways or buildings should be included <br /> • in the shoring design, as appropriate. For design, the following earth pressure and surcharge <br /> • values should be used: <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • Earth Solutions NW,LLC <br /> • <br /> S. <br />
