Geotechnical Engineering Heparl 5 June 17. 2008 <br />Fred Meyer Fueling Facilio, project 111005-117 <br />For the anticipated floor slab loading, we estimate post -construction floor settlements of <br />/a- to %:-inch. <br />4.6 Drainattc <br />I-inal exterior grades should promote free and positive drainage away rronn building. Water <br />must not pond or collect adjacent to kiosk or within the immediate canopy area. We <br />recommend providing a minimum drainage gradient of i% for a minimum distance of 10 <br />feet from the canopy perimeter, except in pawed locations. In paved locations, a minimum <br />gradient of 1% should be provided unless provisions are included for collection and <br />disposal of surface water adjacent to the structure. <br />4.7 Utilities <br />Utilily pipes should be bedded and backfilled in accordance with American Public Works <br />Association (APWA) specifications. For site utilities located v ]thin the City of Everett or <br />Snohomish County right-of-ways, bedding and buckfill should be completed in accordance <br />with City of Everett or Snohomish County specifications. The trench backlill should be <br />placed and compacted as structural fill, as described in the Site Prcparation and Grading <br />section. <br />Where utilities occur below unimproved areas, the degree ol'compact ion can be reduced to <br />a minimum of 90 percent of the soil's maximum density as determined by the referenced <br />ASTM standard. As noted, soils excavated on -site will generally be suitable for use as <br />backlill material if soil's moisture can be properly controlled. <br />Product and vent piping trenches should be sloped, bedded, and backfilled in accordance <br />with the APl specifications. <br />4.8 Pavements <br />Pavement subgrade should be prepared as described in the Site Preparation aid Grading <br />section of this report and as discussed below. Regardless of the relative compaction <br />achieved, the subgrade must be firm and relatively unyielding before paving. This <br />condition should be verified by proof -rolling with construction equipment or hand probe <br />by inspector. <br />Based on our Geld exploration, the existing parking lot pavement consists of 10 inches of <br />asphalt over native soil or strucnural till without crushed rock base (CRE). 71ic pavement <br />seems to be in acceptable condition. The future pavement can match this pavement section. <br />If this pavement will be used, Riley recommends that the navcnient section consist of 4 <br />inches of asphalt concrete (AC) over G inches of asphalt treated base (ATE). CRB will not <br />used. <br />Alternatively, regular flexible pavement with CR13 can be used. With the pavement <br />subgrade prepared as described above, the following pavement sections are recommended: <br />The Riley Group, Inc. <br />
