� <br />CNA Architecture Group <br />12 April 1991 <br />6.0 CLOSURE <br />� <br />W-7352 <br />Page 14 <br />Based upon our field and office studies, it is our opinion that it would be feasible from a <br />geotechnical standpoint to construct the proposed building at this location. The building <br />may supported by conventional !ootings which be�r upon the medium dens�s to dense <br />naturally occurring sands or compacted structural fill. Special attention to wet weather <br />construction techniques would be required due to the silty nature of the onsite fill soils. <br />The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are based. on the <br />explorations accomplished for this study. The number, location, and depth of the <br />explorations were completed within the site and proposal constraints so as to yield the <br />information utilized to formulate our recommendations. The future integriry of the <br />building foundations depending upon proper site preparation and construction <br />proCedures. Due to the variable subsurface conditions observed, it appears that at this <br />time that some judgement will be necessary in the field to determine the adequacy of the <br />fill material and foundation support system. It is especially critical that a uniform pad of <br />compacted fill be provided in order to minimize abrupt differential settlements. <br />Therefore, because of our familiarity with the soils, we recommend that Rittenhouse- <br />Zeman & Associates, Inc., be retained to provide geotechnical engineering services <br />during the earthwork and foundation construction phases of the project. If variations in <br />the subsurface conditions are observed at the time, we would be able to provide <br />additional geotechnical engineering recommendations in a timely manner. <br />�� <br />s <br />N <br />N <br />
