Subject: Geotechnical investigation Slope Stability Assessment
Granary Ridge Development
Kalispell, Montana
CMG Project No,:05-
Dear Mr. Toni Kline,
At your request, CMG Engineering, Inc. (CMG) has conducted a geotechnical investigation
and slope stability assessment for the planned Granary Ridge Development, in Kalispell, Montana.
The Vicinity Map, Figure 1, shows the general location of the site. The investigation was conducted
to evaluate subsurface materials, observe conditions at the site, and develop recommendations for
site preparation, earthwork, general foundation udelnes, suracc dran.a�e. nestaton
included a review of existing subsurface information for the site vicinity, subsurface explorations,
field and laboratory testing, and engineering analyses. This report describes the work accomplished
and provides our conclusions and recommendations for use in the design and construction of the
proposed project. CMG has strived to perform the investigation and develop recommendations in
a manner consistent with the degree of care that is presently standard to the geotechn.i al engineering
profession.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located in the north portion of Kalispell, adjacent to Whitefish Stage Road
as indicated on Figure I . The proposed d e el o ment will consist of 8 duplex buildings on 16 lots
with an asphaltic concrete paved access road. The location and configuration of the proposed
development are shown on the Site Flan, Figure 2. ,available design details indicate the proposed
buildings will consist of single -story structures with attached garages. Based on proposed floor
elevations and the existing topography, we anticipate fill placement will he limited to Lots 6 and 7.
Maximum fill heights qf 2 to 3 ft are anticipated Our past experience with similar structures

SITE DESCRIPTION
General
The project site is bordered by residential development to the north and south, a relatively
steep, downward sloping hill to the east, and whitefish Stage Road to the west. Past development
of the site consists of an existing house, small sheds, and utilities near the south property boundary.
The proposed development area is vegetated with. grass, and the slope along the east side of the site
is vegetated with grass, underbrush and large evergreen trees. Seeps and springs were not observed
at the ground surface within the planned development area; however, evidence ofpast spring activity
was observed on the slope, near the northeast corner of the site. It appears that past development
within the planned building footprints has not occurred.
Topography
Site observations and review of the available topographic survey informat . n., provided by
you, indicates the area to be developed is relatively flat. However, east of the proposed development,
the ground slopes downward at average slopes of about 1I:ly. Elevations range from about
3,004 ft near the northwest property corner to about 2,997 ft near the center of the east development
boundary. Elevations in the vicinity of the slope range from about 3,000 ft at the crest of the slope
to about 21,9 ft at the toe. It appears the majority of the project area has not been disturbed by
previous development, and undisturbed, native soils should be anticipated. Based on the current site
plan, the buildings along the east property boundary will be located at least 20 ft(horizontally) from
the crest of the slope.
Geology
The project site lies in the Rocky Mountain Trench bounded by the Salish Mountains to the
West and the Swan Lange to the East. The trench was traversed by the Flathead Glacier and was
covered by substantial areas ofglacial lakes during recesslon of the lee mass. The surficial geology
of the area consists of silts and clays deposited by glacial. lakes and sands deposited during more
turbulent tines. The soils are underlain by glacial till soils consisting of silty gravel with large
cobbles and boulders that were deposited during glaciation of the area. Based on past experience
and observations during this investigation, we anticipate the glacial till soils are more than 60 ft
below the ground surface in this area. Seepage is common, but relatively unpredictable in these
deposits.
The relatively steep slope along the east property boundary was carved by the whitefish
River following glaciation. This slope is an ancient river hank and extends for miles along the west
side of the river, This slope has a history of periodic failure, particularly in areas steeper than
I H; I V and where increased surface water flows are added at the crest of the slope. There is some
evidence of past failures below the project area as indicated by hummocky, irregular terrain beyond
the toe of slope. However, the majority of the slope appears constant and continuous with numerous
large evergreen trees, Indicating slope movement has not occurred in more than 5 0 years. It appears
that some slope activity has occurred in an oversteepened area of the slope below the northeast
Page

corner of the site. Based on observations at the site, the slump was likely caused by eater added to
the slope in a. concentrated area by ston-nwater pipes and rain gutters from the neighboring
development. The slump is near the toe of the slope and is below Lots I and 2, where the crest of
the slope extends to the northeast as opposed to directly north. Planned foundations in this area are
between and 5 5 ft from the crest of the slope.
Site Seismicity
The site lies within the Intermountain Seismic Belt and is .upped as a zone of potentially
significant seismic ground movement. Subsurface materials encountered during this limited
investigation indicate the site soils should be classified as Site Class E, in accordance with the
International Building Code IBC Zoo . Based on the relatively medlu . stiff to stiff nature of the
soils and low groundwater table, we anticipate the risk of liquefaction or lateral spreading is love.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
General
Subsurface materials and conditions at the site were investigated on April 27, 2005 with four
borings, designated - I through -4. Borings -1 and B-2 were completed near the crest of the
slope, near the rear of Lots 2 and 6. The approximate locations of the borings are shown on Figure
2. A detailed discussion of the field exploration and laboratory testing programs completed for this
investigation are provided in Appendix A. .dogs of the borings are provided in Appendix A on
Figures I A through 4A.
Soils
Typical soils observed at the ground surface consist of fill material and low plasticity silt
soils v.th varying percentages of organics and sand (topsoil). The fill and topsoil zones extend to
depths of about o, 5 to 2.5 ft. The fill and topsoil are underlain by interbedded layers of silt, sated and
clay with varying combinations of the these three soil constituents. Standard Penetration Blow
counts range from 5 to 28 blows per ft, indicating the relative consistency of the soil ranges from
medium stiff to very stiff. Moisture contents of these soils tend to increase with increased clay
contents and decrease when sand percentages increase. Moisture contents also tend to increase with
depth and generally range from about 2 to 10 percent in sand soils and 15 to percent in silt and
clay soils. All four borings completed for this investigation were terminated in the silty clay soils
at varying depths ranging from 10.3 to 60.1 ft.
Groundwater
Groundwater was not observed in the .majority of the subsurface exp]oratlons at the time of
drilling except in Boring -1. A 2-inch diameter slotted PVC pipe was installed i.. Boring - I to
be used to record periodic groundwater levels. on May 12, 2005, groundwater depths were
measured at about 57.0 ft below the ground surface, corresponding to an elevation of 2,945 ft. It
should be .noted that this elevation corresponds to the approximate elevation of the toe of the steeper
portions of the slope to the east of the development. we anticipate the groundwater level rises and
falls in response to rainfall and snowmelt. Numerous other factors .may contribute to groundwater
fluctuations and occurrence of seepage; evaluation of these factors requires special study that is

ENGINEERING ANALYSIS
General
Based on discussions with the project team at the time of this investigation, we understand
the proposed structures will consist of single -story buildings with attached garages. Five builidngs
are pled along the east property boundary with foundation walls at least 20 ft from the crest of
the nearby slope. We understand cuts will be minimal and fills up to about 3 ft are planned on 1., is
6 and . Maximum column and wall loads of 50 kips and 3 kips per lineal ft, respectively, are
anticipated for the planned structures.
Site Preparation
The soils encountered during the subsurface investigation consist primarily of fine-grained
moisture -sensitive soils. Based on past experience, the near -surface fine-grained soils encountered
during this investigation have .little cohesion. As a result, these soils can be easily disturbed and
strength diminished dunng construction if in -situ moisture contents are greater than the optimwn
moisture content for the soli. This is of particular concern daring the seasonally wet tines of the year
when seepage or surface water is allowed to pond and infiltrate. Therefore, positive site drainage
is of critical importance to both construction and long-term performance of the proposed
development. Based on our experience in the project vicinity and groundwater level measurements
taken during this investigation, we anticipate groundwater levels will he below the planned
excavation limits and utility construction. In addition, moisture contents of the near surface soils
at the time of our investigation were below the optimum moisture content for the silty clay and sand
soils,, indicating the risk of disturbing the soils with construction traffic 1s low, assuming adequate
drainage is provided.
Site stripping will need to be conducted in all planned development areas prior to earthwork.
construction. The removal of topsoil should extend down to firm native soils with minimal organics.
Based on observations wring the subsurface investigation, we anticipate the topsoil/cultivated zone
will r .nge from 6 to 12 inches thick with an average of 9 inches across the site. Previously placed
fill material shall also be removed in areas where settlement sensitive elements pavement,
sidewalks, utilities, concrete slabs, foundations, etc. are planned.
Earthwork
We understand it is desirable to use on -site soils for the construction of the relatively small
Structural Fills and utflity trench bae fi 1. Near surface, on -site soils consist primarily of fine-
grained, moisture -sensitive silty clay and sand soils. Soils encountered beneath the topsoi cultivated
zone are suitable for Structural Fill construction as long as the soils are free of organics or other
deleterious materials. Compaction of Structural Fill and utility trench bac fill should be
accomplished when moisture contents are within 3 percent of the optimum moisture content as
determined by ASTM D698. Observations during the subsurface and laboratory investigations
revealed that the in situ soils are typically dry of the optimum moisture content as determined by
STM D698,, indicating water will need to be added to these soils and the soils will need to be
'age
Gran4a Ri e Deve p pent - Kalispell, Montana CMG E gineerxInc.
moisture conditioned prior to compaction. Use of on -site, fine grained soils will be a weather -
sensitive earthwork operation. It should be realized that fine grained soils can be difficult to
compact, particularly during wet or cold weather. Construction of Structural Fill using fine grained
soils during relatively wet weather or when temperatures are below freezing (including nightly low
temperatures), will significantly reduce the efficiency of earthwork operations. Limiting mass
grading to the relatively dry and warm late spring, summer or early fall months will reduce the
likelihood of weather affecting construction operations.
Foundations
We anticipate footings will be established in the relatively medium stiff to stiff silt and clay
soils. The moisture sensitive fine grained soils require care and proper drainage to adequately
construct the proposed structures. Based on the assumed elevation of the planned footings, it appears
the soil to a depth of about 5 feet below the bottom of footings consists of medium stiff and stiff silt
and clay soils, with SPT blow counts of 6 to 20 bows per foot. Precautions to minimize disturbance
of the bearing surface and reduce associated differential settlements are provided in. the
Recommendations section of this report.
Based on typical design for like structures, we anticipate maximum um design loads will be less
than 50 kips for column loads, and 3 kips per lineal .foot for the continuous wall footings. Field and
laboratory test data for this project along with previous geotechnical investigations conducted in the
nearby vicinity of this Project and on similar soils were used in the foundation analysis.
Bearing pressure values of 2,000 psf are based on medium stiff to stiff silt and clay soils or
Structural Fill compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined
by , STM D698. Excavations necessary to remove disturbed subgrade soils, or unsuitable subgrade
soils should be backfilled with Structural Fill gravel as indicated in the Recommendations section
of this report. We anticipate settlements associated with the allowable bearing pressures presented
above and in the Recommendations section of this report will be less than I inch with differential
settlements less than 1 the total settlement. Settlements are expected to occur over a. relatively short
time period in response to the loading.
Slope Stability Analysis
Obvious signs of recent slope instability or land movement was not observed in the vicinity
of the slope with the exception of a relatively small area at the toe of the slope, below Lots I and 2
of the planned development. However, based on the topography of the area around the site and
CMG, s past experience with nearby projects, we anticipate that slope failures and soil creep may
have previously occurred below the project site. It is likely that the flattening of slopes by past
failures have generally aided in the stabilization of the project area., although, caution is still required
when developing near the crest of the ,steep slope. In addition, the slump below Lots I and 2 should
be periodically .monitored. for erosion movement and may need to be regraded if slumping continues
to occur. Due to the proximity of the slumping area to the planned development and the fact that the
structures will be set back a distance between 35 and 55 ft from the crest of the slope in this area,
we anticipate the existing slump will have minimal affect on the planned development. we also
anticipate that soil creep is occurring ac--,oss the relatively steep slope. Slope creep is the slow
Page 5

downward movement en ent of fine grained soils to a depth of about 5 ft below the ground surface. Soil
creep typically occurs on relatively steep slopes comprised of fine grained soils and occurs at an
extremely slow rate. Due to .no planned structures on the slope, soil creep should not affect the
planned development.
Two exploration borings were drilled in the project area to a depths of about 39.6 and 60,1
ft to evaluate soil conditions and groundwater levels. The information obtained during drilling was
used to conduct a slope stability analysis of the site; in addition, data from projects on similar soils
were used for shear strength correlations. The analysis consisted of evaluating the existing
conditions at the site along with those following construction.
Our stability analysis to model slope behavior used the computer program STABLE6H to
generate limiting equilibrium solutions for circular and planar failure surfaces. The limiting
equilibrium concept is based on the ratio ofresisting to driving forces or moments. Circular surfaces
were analyzed using the Modified Bishop Method, and planar surface analysis used the Modified
an u Method. When failure impends, or limiting equilibrium is approached, the factor of safety
reaches S=1.0, while a factor of safety r at S=1.5± is normally accepted minimum for design of
slopes subject to seepage. For seismic analysis purposes, a pseudo -static method was used
employing a horizontal seismic coefficient, k 0.12; this value is on the order of two thirds the
magnitude of the o -year earthquake acceleration. A factor of safety., FS-z;;;:1.0, is normally accepted
for transient seismic loading.
Existing Condition An is
A site plan with topographic contours provided by you, was used to develop a cross section
of the slope in the vicinity of the proposed structures. The location of the cross section appears to
contain the controlling condition with the steepest slopes and the greatest vertical relief. The soils
encountered in Boring - l and B -2 were used to generate a soil profile in the vicinity of the cross
section. In this analysis, an effective r etton angle, 1 � was used. for both the silty sand and
silty clay soils. A cohesion intercept value, c=O psf, was used to'model the noncohesie nature of
the granular materials and a value of 100 psf was used to evaluate the silty clay soils. Based. on oast
experience in the Kalispell area., moist and saturated unit weights of 11.0 and 125 pcf, respectfely,
were used for the entire soil column used in this analysis. A piezometr�e surface corresponding to
the measured groundwater elevation was also input for this analysis. The existing condition analysis
resulted in a factor of safety against sliding of about 1.6 to 1.7. The circular failure method
(Modified Bishop Method) produced the lowest factor of safety for this analysis. These results
indicate the existing slope safety factors to be within the normally -accepted range for slope stability
under static, steady-state seepage conditions. For the seismic case, the factor of safety was found
to be FS=I ..
Post Construction Section Anal si
ys
Following construction of the pled development, we anticipate increased loading due to
the presence of structures; however, the building loads compared to the weight of the soil column
Page
Gram Ridge Development - Kalispell, Montana CMG Engineering, Inc.
is minimal and will not have a large effect on tie stability of the slope. The post construction
analysis assumes drainage is prov;Ided around the structure and roof water is collected and not
allowed to outlet on the slope as indicated in the Recommendations section of this report. The
analysis also assumes the ground surface in the vicinity of the residence is not significantly regraded
(with the exception of mirror fills on Lots 6 and ' to increase the height or angle of the existing
slopes. Excavation of soil from the slope and flattening of the slopes will increase the factor of
safety and is considered favorable, aside for the disturbance to vegetation.
The post construction stability analysis used the same soil properties and geometry as the pre
construction analysis. However, loading was added to model the continuous foundations of the
proposed structure. The post construction stability analysis results in a factor of safety of about 1.6.
For the seismic case, the factor of safety was found to be about S= i .15 . The circular failure method
(Modified Bishop Method) produced. the lowest factor of safety for this analysis. These results
indicate the analyzed post construction condition is also within normally acceptable stability limits.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.0 General Site Preparation
1.1 The removal of topsoil and other organic material, including the clearing and grubbing of
surficial vegetation and root zones, should be accomplished within the construction zone
prior to any earthwork construction. Due to the presence of moisture -sensitive fine grained
soils near the ground surface, care should be taken to reduce the risk of disturbing the soils
clue to heavy construction traffic during wet conditions. Following removal of surface
rya erals, site preparation can proceed for earthwork, sgrade preparation, and foundations.
1.2 Surface drainage should be established to direct runoff away from the construction area and
relatively steep slopes at the east side of the property.
1.3 Excavated material or structural fill to he placed as bacl fil I shall not be stockpiled on or near
the crest of the relatively steep slope, Stockpiling soil on or near the crest of the steep slope
wii add weight to the slope that �.il .reduce the factor of safety against s.lidi.rrg.
1.4 Soils encountered. at the site have a relatively high silt and clay percentage. These soils are
fine grained, moisture -sensitive soils that are easily disturbed by construction activities and
traffic. During wet weather construction,, we recommend construction traffic not travel over
fine grained subgrade soils. In areas where heavy construction traffic is anticipated, haul
roads with a minimum .imum gravel thickness of 2 feet should be constructed over the planned
subgrade. The gravel should consist of a ell -graded pit ruin gravel with a maximum size
of 3 inches with no more than 7 percent passing the No. 200 sieve. Geotextile fabric placed
between the fine-grained soils and gravel for the haul road will reduce the risk of continued
maintenance of the haul road during construction.. Provided that the haul road is constructed
over fire subgrade stripped of organics, it can he used as a portion of the subbase for the
roadway.

1.5 The stability of construction excavations and associated worker safety are the responsibility
of the contractor in accordance with current OSHA regulations; this responsibility ity may
require design by a registered professional engineer. Based on the predominant soil types
encountered during our investigation, temporary construction excavations that are to be
planned in accordance with OSHA pro islon.s should assume Type B material conditions for
medium stiff to stiff silt and clay soils. Actual subsurface conditions at the time of
excavation should be observed by a geotechnical engineer to determine whether slope
flattening, bracing or other stabilization is necessary due to seepage or other unexpected
conditions.
2,0 Excavation, Earthwork, andConstruction Materials
2.1 Heavy-duty, track -mounted hydraulic excavators equipped with a smooth cutting edge will
reduce the n"sk of disturbing the underlying silt and clay soils during excavation.Rubber-
tired equipment, including graders and dump trucks, used within 2 ft of subgrade elevation
will greatly increase the risk of disturbing the underlying subgrade soils during wet weather
conditions..
,2 Structural Fill constructed. within proposed building footprints, driveway.ss dermal s, and
other areas that are settlement -sensitive should be comprised of soils that are free of organics
and deleterious materials. All Structural Fill material should be compacted to a minimum
of 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by A.STM D698. In addition, the
moisture content of the Structural Fill at the time of compaction should be within 3 percent
of the optimum moisture content as determined by ASTM D698. Structural Fills should
consist of well -graded soils with a maximwn particle size of 4 inches. -site soils, free of
material greater than 4 inch maximum size and moisture conditioned to within 3 percent of
the optimum moisture content is suitable for Structural Fill. All Structural Fill material shall
be approved by our geotechnieal engineer. In the event where Structural Fill will be placed
beneath planned footings, in an area of significant moisture, or at times of the year when
moisture conditioning of the on -site soils is im.pra.etical, we recommend the Structural Fill
material meet the following gradation and composition. on. guidelines:
Scree. or Sieve Size Percent Passing by Weight
-inch. 100
I 1-inch.85-100
No. 4 30-60
'No. Zoo 10 maximum
The sand and gravel -size particles comprising the .fill should be hard, durable rock
materials that will not degrade by moistening or under :mechanical action of the
compacting equipment; i.e. .not shale or other clayey rock types.
Page
ra ark Jae Development - Kalispell , Montana CMG , Inc.
The b1nder1fines should have maximum Liquid Limit and Plasticity Index values of
25 and 10 percent, respectively.
No frozen, organic, or other deleterious materials should be present in the Structural
Fill.
.3 Structural Fill should be placed in uniform lifts not exceeding a l -inch loose thickness and
be compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum un dry density as determined by ASTM
D698, Structural Fill should be placed over undisturbed subgrade material. The subgrade
should be observed by a qualified geotechnical engineer prior to fill placement. Structural
Fill should not be placed over frozen subrade or previously placed Structural Fill that has
frozen. Due to the presence of the relatively steep slope, we recommend Structural Fill areas
be limited to the relatively low area of Lots 6 and 7 and shall not exceed about 3 ft deep.
2.4 Perimeter bac .fill materials should be approved by our geotechnical engineer and be placed
in uniform lifts ofmaximum l -inch loose thickness and be compacted to 95 percent of the
maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698. Backfill materials should be placed
and compacted per Item 2. We anticipate the moisture contents of the excavated materials
will be relatively dry of the optimum moisture content and difficult to moisture condition
during the relatively cold conditions when temperatures are less than 40 degrees (F).
Therefore, depending on construction schedule, we anticipate imported Structural Fill as
described in Item 2.2 may be necessary in some areas. Backfill should not be placed on
frozen subgrade material or previously placed backfill that .has frozen. en. Compaction within
5 Feet of foundation structures or retaining walls should be accomplished using hand -
operated tamping equipment only.
2.5 Structural Fill placement should be observed and tested by our geotechnical site
representative. Any areas of rutting, excessive deformation, or other non -uniform
performance should be moisture conditioned and recom acted, or removed and replaced, as
recommended by our geotechnical engineer.
3,0 Foundation Preparation and Design
3.1 Excavation to foundation elevation shall be acco p shed with a smooth -lipped excavator
bucket to reduce disturbance. Areas of disturbed subgrade shall be removed prior to rebar
and form and placement. Prior to placement of forn .s and rebar, we recommend our
eotechnical engineer observe the .native soil at the bottom of the excavation for suitability
of the proposed foundation bearing pressures. Care should be taken to minimize disturbance
to the silt, clay and sand bearing surfaces. Due to the sensitive nature of the silt and clay
soils, if construction is to occur during wet weather conditions, we recommend
overexeava.tin 1 inches below foundation elevations and backlling with Structural Fill
gravel as described in Item 2.2,. Compaction should occur immediately after placement of
gravel to reduce the risk ofdisturbing the underlying soils. We recommend our geotechnical
engineer observe compaction of the gravel to reduce the risk of applying too much
Page
Gr p Ri e r el o ! t - Kafir ll, Montane. CMG Ep n ram, Inc.
eornpactive effort and disturbing the underlying silt and clay soils.
3.2 where the removal of unsuitable material is required, replacement Structural Fill should be
placed and compacted per Item 2.2 to attain foundation grade. Unsuitable materials include
previously placed fill nateri.as, soils with support capability less than the bearing values
planned for a specific footing, and any saturated or softened/disturbed native soils that may
occur due to isolated seepage, weather, or construction activities.
3.3 Continuous wall and spread footIng foundations shall be established on undisturbed native
soils or compacted Structural Fill. footings can then be designed with maximum allowable
bearing pressures of 2,000 psf provided load -settlement relations discussed in the
Engineering Analysis are acceptable. Continuous wall and spread footing foundations
should have minimum footing widths of 18 inches and 2 ft, respectively.
3.4 As discussed in the Engineen*ng Analysis section, the relatively steep slope along the east
property boundary is sensitive to construction activities. we recommend horizontal setbacks
at foundation elevation of at least 25 ft from the slope be established to reduce the risk of the
planned development affecting the stability of the slope. It should be .noted that the
horizontal setback distance is measured at footing elevation from the outside edge of the
footing to the location on the slope at the same elevation as the bottom of the footing. With
the typical embedment of foundations, we anticipate the 25 ft setback will he accomplished
if'the building walls are planned no closer than 20 f from the crest of the slope.
3.5 All foundation footings should have a minimum embedment bedment of 2.0feet below finished
interior surfaces. Exterior wall footings should be embedded a minimum of 3.5 feet below
exterior grades to establish frost protection. In addition, foundations sb.ould be established
a minimum horizontal distance of 25 ft from the slope face. Horizontal distance from the
slope .face can be increased by deepening the footing elevation.
4.0 Site Drainage
.1 Finished site grades should be .positively sloped away from foundation and backfill ,pones.
Upslope grading should be designed and maintained to route nmoffaway from the building
areas.
.2 Due to the sensitive nature of the relatively steep slope, we recommend rood` water be
collected and piped to a storm suer system that outlets along the west property boundary.
Water from drains and gutters should not be allowed to outlet on or near the slope.
5,0 Seismic Design
.1 Seismic design following the static procedures outlined in the International Building Code
may be conducted using; a Site Class E 2 03 IBC). A site specific seismic hazard study will
be necessary if dynamic procedures are to be followed.

,o Construction Services and Quality Control
6.1 Geotechnical observation should be provided to monitor the site preparation, earthwork-, and
foundation stages of construction. These geotechnical services should ascertain that
subsurface conditions are reasonably consistent with those determined by our investigation,
and should ascertain that site and foundation preparation are consistent with our
recommendations.
CONCLUSION
The foregoing recommendations present our initial geotechnical input for design and
construction of the project. In order for these recommendations to ' e properly incorporated in the
subsequent design and construction stages we recommend that our geotechnical and construction
materials engineering staff remain involved with the project to ascertain that our recommendations
have been properly interpreted both during design and construction. These services will reduce the
potential for misinterpretation of subsurface conditions and geotechnical design recommendations
that are important in the preparation of project plans, specifications and bid documents.
LIMITATIONS
CMG Engineering, Inc. has strived to prepare this report in accordance with generally
accepted geotechnical engineering practices in this area solely for use by the client for design
poses and is not intended as a construction or hid document e.nt representing subsurface conditions
in their entirety. The conclusions and recommendations presented are based upon the data obtained
during the investigation as applied to the :proposed design and construction details discussed in this
report. The nature and extent of variations between the borings may not become evident until
construction. If variations are them exposed, it will be necessary to reevaluate the recommendations
of this report.
f changes in the concept, design data, or location of the structures are planned, the
recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered valid unless the changes are
reviewed by our geotechnical engineer, and a written response is provided.

FIELD EXPLORATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTING
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
General
The subsurface materials and conditions at the site were investigated by CMG on April 27,
Zoo, with four borings designated B - 1 through B -. The location of the borings are shown on the
Site Plan,, Figure 2. All field explorations were observed by an experienced engineer or geologist
provided by our firm, who maintained a detailed log of the mat.efial s disclosed during the eourse of
the work. The following subsections contain a detailed description of the field investigation
completed for this project,
Borings
Borings B-1 through -4 were completed to a depths ranging from 10.3 to 60.1 ft. The
borings were drilled using hollow -stem auger techniques with a Mobile - 1 truck -mounted drill
rig, provided and. operated by 0 "Keefe Drilling of Butte, Montana. Disturbed samples were obtained
from the borings at 2.- to 5-ft intervals of depth. Disturbed samples were obtained using a standard
split -spoon sampler. At the time of sampling, , the Standard Penetration Test S T was conducted.
This test consists of driving a standard. split -spoon sampler into the soil a distance of 18 in. -using a
1 o-lb hammer dropped 30 in. The number of blows required to drive the sampler the last 12 in, is
known as the Standard penetration Resistance, or N-value. The N- val es provide a measure of the
relative density of granular soils, such as sand, and the .relative consistency or stiffness of cohesive
soils, such as slit and clay. The soil samples obtained in the split -spoon sampler were carefully
examined in the field, and representative portions were saved in airtight plastic bags for further
examination and physical testing in our laboratory. The actual length of sample recovered is
dependent on the type of material and recovery percentage. Logs of the borings are provided on
Figures I A through 4A. Each log presents a descriptive summary of the various types ofmaterials
encountered and motes the depth where the materials and/or characteristics of the materials change.
To the left of the descriptive summary, the numbers and types of samples taken during drilling
operations are indicated. To the right, N-values are shown graphically, along with the natural
moisture contents, Atterberg Limits, and Torvane shear strength values, if appropriate.
LABORATORY TESTING
General
All samples obtained from the borings were returned to our laboratory where the physical
characteristics of the samples were noted, and field classifications were modified where necessary.
The laboratory testing program for this project consisted of natural moisture content tests.
Natural Moisture Content
Natural moisture content determinations were made in conformance with A-STM D2216. The
results are shown on the boring logs, Figures 1 A through 4A.
