u'eOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING STUDY 1920 Grand ��c S;.:�nell Enterprises - -=== December 21, 2000 ?aae 4 DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS General Based on the results of our study, it is our opinion the project can be constructed generally as planned. The proposed underground parking excavation can oe accompiished using open cuts provided an easement is obtained for the Cir,� o` Everer. tc cut into the sidewalk. Building support may be provided on a combination o` conventional spread and continuous footing foundations bearing on the competen: native soii and drilled piers embedded in the vei y dense sand and gravel underlying the site. The building shouid be supported on the drilled pier or augercast piie foundations within fifteen feet of the top of the slope to prevent loading the top of the slope. Slab-on-grade floors may be supported on the competent native soils at the basement level. This report has been prepared for specific application to this project only and in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by other members of the � profession currently practicing under similar conditions in this area for the exclusive use - of 1926 Grand and their representatives. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. This report, in its entirety, should be included in the project contract documents for the information of the contractor. Ske P►eoaration and General Eartfiwork � Based on the preliminary site pian, it appears site earthwork will consist of excavating for - the below grade parking level, excavating foundations and preparing slab subgrade. The building and pavement areas should be stripped and cleared of foundations, surface L vegetation, organic matter, and other deleterious material. Existing utility pipes to be abandoned should be piugged or removed so that they do not provide a conduit for water and cause soil saturation and stability problems. � f" � 4 � Erth Conwdt�na, Ma � � � L
