and in building areas (including utility trench backfill) should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the <br />maximum dry density (MDD) estimated in general accordance with ASTM D 1557. <br />5A.3.Temporary Slopes and Excavations <br />Temporary slopes and excavations must conform to the provisions of Title 296 Washington Administrative <br />Code (WAC), Part N, "Excavation, Trenching and Shoring." We recommend that temporary cut slopes be <br />constructed at 1H:1V. Flatter slopes may be necessary if seepage is present on the face of the out slopes <br />or if localized sloughing occurs. Steeper slopes up to 3/aH:1V may be feasible in the very dense glacial till <br />soils, provided the geotechnical engineer confirms soil conditions are consistent and evaluates the stability <br />of the slopes during construction. Neat cuts in the native glacial till soils are feasible for shallow foundation <br />elements. For open cuts at the site, we recommend that: <br />im No traffic, construction equipment, stockpiles or building supplies be allowed at the top of the cut <br />slopes within a distance of at least 5 feet from the top of the cut; <br />Exposed soil along the slope be protected from surface erosion by using waterproof tarps or plastic <br />sheeting; <br />Construction activities be scheduled so that the length of time the temporary cut is left open is reduced <br />to the extent practicable; <br />is Erosion control measures be implemented as appropriate such that runoff from the site is reduced to <br />the extent practicable; <br />Surface water be diverted away from the slope; and <br />in The general condition of the slopes be observed periodically by the geotechnical engineer to confirm <br />adequate stability. <br />Because the contractor has control of the construction operations, the contractor should be made <br />responsible for the stability of cut slopes, as well as the safety of the excavations. Shoring and temporary <br />slopes must conform to applicable local, state and federal safety regulations. <br />We have prepared this report for the exclusive use of The Boeing Company and members of the design <br />team for the proposed 777X Horizontal Build Line (HBL) Expansion project located within the 40-23 Building <br />at the Boeing Everett Factory in Everett, Washington.
