L <br />! Proposed McCabe Residence Remodel <br />Everett, Weshington <br />Project No. 6(3-9701022 <br />Page 7 <br />�,�: � : �,� �,�., , , � �„ <br />Adcquate temporary end pem�enent control of surfece water nnwff and subsurfsce xepege will <br />be required in ocder to allow site acce�s, g�rading, and conshuctioa W proceed. Excavatioa, fiUing, <br />subgrade and �tade prepetation should be pafom�ed in a manner and sequetxe thet will provide drainege <br />at all dmes and proper control of eroaion. Successful dreinege of local �aturated mnea due to <br />accumulations of s�uface waLer ninoffcould be axomplisl►ed by localined ditc6ing and/or the iaatallation <br />of cut-off trenches or "fcench" drains. The site should be graded to prevent water from ponding in <br />wnstruction areas , and flowing inW or standing in excavadons. If t�eceasery, drainege sumps with <br />pumps activaud by float switches slwuld be used W rcmove �tanding water from excavations or sumps <br />when the conshuction site is unattended. Stripped working areas should be crowned, sloped, and �nooth- <br />drum roped at the end of each day to facilitate drainage, and stripped areas tl�st are to be Isndscaped <br />should be revegetated as soon ag pcactical. <br />S1tC.Sl[1RR1[lQ <br />Site prcparadon will require removal of my existing shuctu[es or fouedations a� well es all <br />surface vegetation and its auociated root systems, otganic soils or otlxr deletetious materials iu plmned <br />building and pavement ereas. Sod and topsoil vwere encountered at the exploration locatioas and were <br />about 6 inches in thiclmess. Actual removal depths should be deteimined by a Gtles representative at the <br />time of grading based on the subecade material's organic conknt and stability. <br />Upon compledon of demolition and stripping, loose, wet sand fill should be expoxd. Where <br />foundation excavations do not penetrate through this loose 611, foundadon subecades should be <br />remediated as described in the shallow foundafioas sectioa of this ceport. <br />� •,�::. � �, _ , � <br />Soils exposed by subgrade preparation operadons ere anticipated to contain a moderate "fines" <br />content and would be considered moisture- and disturbance-sensitive. These soils would become <br />unstable if disturbed (tutted) by constr�ction equipment while at elevated moistute contents requiring. <br />additional soil removal at an increased cost. Moisture content testing was completed on rcpresentadve <br />soil samples and, in most cases, the soil moisture content was well above opdmum. Therefore, site <br />preparation and inidal construction acdvities should be planned to minimiae disturbence to the existing <br />ground surfaca If site stripping and grading activi6es ere perfocmed during extended dry weather <br />periods, extensive subgrade stabilization is not expected to be necessary. However it should be noted <br />that intennittent wet weather periods during the summer months could delay earthwork if soil moisture <br />conditions become elevated above the optimum moisture content. The use of a working surface of sand <br />and gravel, crushed rcek, or quazry spalls may be tequired to protect the silty soils perticulery in areas <br />supporting concenUated equipment traftic. <br />
