Proposed Remedial Excavation: 4849 Spire Lane, Everett, WA <br />December 8, 2022 <br />The excavation support and shoring system used must comply with all applicable safety <br />requirements. <br />If sloughing does occur below the adjacent building footing, the structure should remain <br />stable due to previously installed pipe piles. We recommend that any sloughed area below <br />the building footing be backfilled with CDF to restore support and fill the voids. <br />BASELINE SURVEY AND MONITORING <br />Ground movements may occur as a result of excavation activities. As such, survey <br />monitoring points should be established on ground surfaces and adjacent structures within <br />a horizontal distance equal to two times the depth of the excavation. The monitoring points <br />should be spaced no more than 20 feet apart, and baseline data should be collected before <br />the start of excavations. Subsequent readings should be taken twice a week during the <br />excavation and bacicfill process. <br />The monitoring program should include changes in both the horizontal (x and y directions) <br />and vertical deformations. The monitoring should be performed by the project surveyor to <br />the nearest 0.01-foot, and the results be promptly submitted to the project team for review. <br />The results of the monitoring will allow the design team to confirm design parameters, and <br />for the contractor to make adjustments if necessary. <br />We also recommend that the existing conditions of the adjacent private and public <br />properties be photo -documented prior to commencing any earthwork at the site. <br />CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS <br />STRUCTURAL BACKFILL <br />After the excavation has been completed, we understand that it will be backfilled with <br />structural fill, and the surface restored to its existing condition. Adjacent to the existing <br />structure, we recommend that CDF be used as backfil. When CDF is not used, we <br />recommend the imported fill consist of granular material such as WSDOT gravel borrow <br />(WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.14(1)), or an approved equivalent. The structural <br />fill should be moisture conditioned to within about 3 percent of optimum moisture content, <br />placed in loose, horizontal lifts less than 8 inches in thickness, and systematically <br />compacted to a dense and relatively unyielding condition and to at least 95 percent of the <br />22-389�4849 spire lane everett_rpt.docx Page 9 PanGEO, Inc. <br />
