A bed of pea gravel or manufacturer approved bedding <br /> material should be used under the pipe. Dewatering of the trench should be expected. The lower sand <br /> found in our exploration would be expected W "run" into the excavation if it is extensive in depth. <br /> Special dewatering, such as wells or well points, may be naded in orda to comp!ete this excavation. <br /> We recommend that test pit explorations be completed prior to starting pipe installation to determine if <br /> dewatering weUs are nxded to complete the pipe insffiIletion. <br /> Depending on t6e conditions exposed at the outer portion of the road embankment, some geogrid within <br /> the fill may be needed. This will have to be determined based on conditions observed in the pipeline <br /> excavation and the finel depth of fill in this erea. It may be that the pipe excavation will remove enough <br /> materiel in the alignment causing the road section W be tltick enough W not need grid. Spalls may be <br /> needed to establish a firm surface before plecing the road embaol�ent fill. <br /> USE OF THIS REPORT <br /> We have prepared this roport for use by the Tredway Corporation and the'v designers, for use in <br /> designing a portion of this projxt T6is ropoR is based on limited exploration date end verification of <br /> actual conditions in the field during construction will be required. Because of t6e expected variations in <br /> subsurface c�nditions,we do not consider the need for additional explorations nxded at this time. Our <br /> analysis of the conditions is baud on engineering judgement and experience with these types of <br /> materials. We have not completed a rigorous analysis of the soil pipe system. We do not consider that <br /> appropriate for these conditions,as they ere highly variable in both sUength and spatially. <br /> Within the limits of scope schedule and budget, we have strived to complete our services within the <br /> accepted state of the oractice. No other conditions,expressed or implied should be understood. <br /> 000 <br /> � <br /> NELSON-COWRETTE 8 ASSOC/ATES, INC. <br />
