1.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> This interim draft report presents the "to date"results of our geotechnical field investigation and <br /> preliminary conclusions and recommendations for design and construction of the Boeing—Everett 777X <br /> Composite Wing Fabrication Center — Building 40-58 at The Boeing Company (Boeing) campus in <br /> Everett,Washington. Design of this project is occurring at a fast pace—this interim draft report presents <br /> draft conclusions and recommendations for elements of the project needed by the design team <br /> immediately. Conceptual discussions of other design issues are also raised here and will be refined in a <br /> subsequent draft. <br /> The general project location is shown on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1). The Current Site Layout <br /> (Figure 2) shows some of the existing site features;the Subsurface Exploration Plan(Figure 3)shows the <br /> approximate locations of the explorations completed for this study. The Composite Wing Facility Layout <br /> (Figure 4) shows the general configuration of the proposed wing facility and other project features. <br /> Subsurface Profiles A-A' through D-D' are presented on Figures 5 through 8 and present a graphical <br /> summary of subsurface conditions encountered during exploration drilling. Appendix A presents a <br /> description of the field explorations and summary boring logs of conditions observed in our explorations <br /> completed for this study. Appendix B presents a description of the geotechnical laboratory testing <br /> program and the results of the laboratory testing. Appendix C contains summary logs of explorations <br /> conducted by others in the project area. (During preparation of this interim draft report, additional <br /> previous explorations by others were presented to us by the design team. The conditions reported on logs <br /> of those explorations have not been fully incorporated into the discussion and conclusions presented in <br /> this interim draft report.) <br /> This report has been prepared based on our discussions with and information provided by BRPH <br /> Architects-Engineers (BRPH), The Boeing Company, Transpo Group, and other members of the project <br /> planning and design team,and our explorations in the project area. <br /> 1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br /> We understand that Boeing plans to construct a 1,250-ft by 960-ft building adjacent to and <br /> immediately east of the existing Building 40-56 and north of Buildings 40-32, 40-33, and 40-34 on the <br /> Boeing—Everett campus. The building would be constructed upon a fill pad extending north of a portion <br /> of the current Perimeter Road alignment and eastward to near Building 40-82. Buildings 40-60, 40-83, <br /> 40-84, 40-097, and a portion of Building 40-85 all reside within the proposed Building 40-58 footprint; <br /> these existing buildings will be demolished prior to construction. A number of utilities will need to be <br /> abandoned and/or relocated prior to construction. <br /> 5/16/14 P:\1423\002\010\PileRm\R\Draft Bldg 40-58 Report\Bldg 40-58_draft rpt.docx INTERIM DRAFT <br /> 1-1 <br />
