LONGITUDE <br />ONE TWENTYO <br />ENGINEERING & DESIGN <br />Scone/Obiective <br />3of32 <br />PROJECT NO. SHEET NO. <br />S220802-1 XR <br />PROJECT 4230 Grand Ave, Everett, WA 98203 <br />SUBJECT Foundation Stabilization/Jacki <br />BY NJ DATE 9/13/22 <br />To determine the required pile spacing and geometry to stabilize and lift (where required) the existing structural foundation. These <br />findings have been based upon the calculated strength of the existing foundation system and the current vertical loading from the <br />existing structure above (based on as -built assessments). <br />The R&R Foundation Specialists' (R&R) proposed pile layout can be found in the following pages with structural recommendations <br />based upon the findings of L120 Engineering & Design. <br />Note that cosmetic damages to rigid wall coverings/members and siding are expected during a foundation lift. Such cosmetic <br />damages/cracks are to be repaired by others following the completion of the foundation stabilization and lifting and are not included in <br />the structural scope presented here. <br />It should be further noted that L120's scope is limited to the perimeter support systems/continuous footings. The interior crawl -space <br />support system for the first floor shall be installed per R&R. This could include the use of some or all of the following: longer support <br />posts, adjustable post -base hardware, and/or the addition of taller wood support members. Settlement in these interior support areas <br />shall be monitored and further adjustments shall be made if necessary. <br />Structural Summary: <br />- The foundation of the residence consists of continuous cast -in -place concrete stem wall and concrete strip footings. Below the footings, <br />piles are to be spaced at a distance no larger than 8'-0" on -center at the locations indicated on the attached Level Survey. Calculations <br />show that supplemental channel is not required for this piles #1-2, however it shall be installed at the contractor's discretion where <br />severe cracking is observed or increased performance of the foundation is deemed necessary. Supplemental channel shall be C6x8.2 <br />spanning from pile to pile at installation locations. Piles and supplemental channel to be installed in accordance with SSK-01, SSK-02, <br />and SSK-03. <br />- End piles are to be placed as close to corners as possible and shall not exceed a max corner offset distance of T-0". <br />- A maximum allowable loading of 1,420 plf was utilized in this analysis. This was determined through inspection of building geometry <br />and conservative span/tributary loading assumptions based on standard construction practices <br />- The following load values represent the maximum expected pile loads for the indicated spacing. R&R to provide pile and equipment <br />assemblies with capacities equal to or greater than the indicated load values. <br />Allowable Load Capacity Requirement: <br />Exterior/Perimeter Piles 1-2 @ 8'-0" o.c. ............ 5 kip minimum vertical capacity (allowable load) <br />Exterior/Perimeter Piles 3-7 @ 8'-0" o.c. ............ 12 kip minimum vertical capacity (allowable load) <br />Note: Refer to the attached General Notes for additional requirements. <br />- As determined by R&R, the site appears to have no lateral (horizontal) displacements or concerns. As such, the analysis and <br />recommendations presented in this report have been strictly limited to vertical stabilization/jacking. If lateral movement is observed or <br />expected additional structural analysis will be required. <br />- Structural recommendations contained in this package are based on site photographs dated July 22, 2022, provided by R&R. To the <br />knowledge of L120, a geotechnical investigation was not performed on this site. Consequently, all structural recommendations assume <br />adequate soil conditions to obtain the required pile capacities. <br />Please inform L120 of site -specific conditions that were unconsidered by, may conflict with, or otherwise compromise the <br />recommendations contained within this package, including, but not limited to, water drainage, slope stability, existing structural damage, <br />or existing subsurface obstructions. In this instance, the structural assumptions, recommendations, and scope for this project will need <br />to be revisited to consider and address the new findings <br />Refer to the following pages for pile and connection specifications. <br />L120 ENGINEERING & D=SIGN <br />
