Box 1243 <br />Minneapolis. Minnesota 55440 <br />Subject� Footing Inspection5 <br />Everett Haggen Faods <br />Everett, Washington <br />Gentlemen: <br />W-4066-i <br />We have been contacted by �4r. Bill Meyers of Dawson Construction, regarding <br />inspection of footing trench excavations required by the City of Everett prior <br />to pouring concrete. Based upon our initial "Subsurface Exploration and <br />Geotechnical En9ineering Study" dated 12 September 1983 and our field inspec- <br />tion activities during mass grading of the site, it is our opinion that the <br />undisturbed on-site soils are capable of supporting the design pressure of <br />', 3000 pounds per square faot and produce no more than 1/2 inch of total and <br />differential settlement. This opinion, however, is based upon the assumption - <br />that proper foundation construction procedures are ?erformed and that the <br />specific recomnendations outlined in this report are followed. <br />As requested by the City of Everett and stated in our report, an inspection <br />of the footing trenches should 6e made prior to rebar forming and concrete <br />placement, by a qual�fied Geotechnical Engineer or a technician acting for <br />a qualified Geotechnical Engineer. We understand that another geotechnical <br />consulting firm has been retained by Dawson Construction for concrete testing. <br />Assuming tlieir testing laboratory supplies a qualified engineer or geolo9ist <br />for the work, we do not foresee any particular problems. However, you should <br />assure yourself that the testing laboratory will indeed be responsible for <br />� <br />
