INSPECTIONS INTRODUCTION This report contains the results of soil testing done in Lots 1 - 4 of Block 2 of the 3rd Addition at the Earle Brown Farm Estates site in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. The soil testing included excavation ob- servations, hand auger borings, and field density tests. The referenced lots are identified as follows: ADDITION BLOCK LOT STREET ADDRESS 3 2 1 2924 67th Lane North 3 2 2 2928 67th Lane North 3 2 3 2932 67th Lane North 3 2 4 2936 67th Lane North BACKGROUND INFORMATION A Preliminary Site Evaluation conducted at the referenced site by Soil Ex- ploration Company was submitted to us by the client. The report was iden- tified as SEC #120-6252 and dated July 18, 1980. Logs of eighteen"soil borings taken by the client at the referenced site were also supplied to us. The soil borings were dated March 20, 1981. A letter by Soil Explora- tion Company addressing the additional evaluation of various townhouses and dated April 27, 1981, was also supplied to us. HYDROLOGY • SOIL AND FOUNDATION ENGINEERING • TEST BORINGS MATERIALS TESTING • PERCOLATION TESTING • ENGINEERING GEOLOGY • CONSTRUCTION TESTING GEC #3069 - Page 2 DESIGN INFORMATION It is our understanding that the proposed buildings will be of wood frame construction and two stories in height, will be constructed slab -on -grade, perimeter footings will bear at an elevation of approximately 845.3, will have a finished floor grade of approximately 849.5 to 850, will have nor- mal tolerance to settlement, will be of conventional design and construc- tion, and will be constructed in accordance with the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and applicable building code requirements. OBSERVATION METHODS AND RESULTS Observations: The client requested that we examine the base of the exca- vation in the area of Lots 1 - 4 of Block 2 of the 3rd Addition on Ap- ril 2, 1982. At that time, a visual examination of the building area in- dicated stripping operations had taken place. The excavation appeared to be deepest along the north end of Lots 1 - 4 and it sloped upward toward the south. The northwest corner of the excavation had not been completed. The exca- vator was present and told us that a backhoe would be used -to complete the excavation in the northeast corner the following Monday. At that time we also recommended that pockets of organic soils that were exposed through- out the excavation be removed. The thickness of the organic soils was rela- tively thin (generally 1/2' or less). On April 5, 1982, a backhoe was present and excavated the Brea of the north- west building corner. We were present to observe the base of the excavation and oversize. We put down hand auger borings throughout the base of the ex- cavation; natural inorganic soils were encountered in the hand auger borings. GEC GEC #3069 - Page 3 Elevations of the base of the excavations were determined. The elevations were referenced to the first floor slab elevation of the townhouse located in Block 8 of the 1st Addition. The first floor of that townhouse, accord- ing to the Development Plan of the site supplied to us by the client, is 851. The elevations that we observed at the approximate northeast, north- west,'southwest, and southeast building corners were 849, 840, 8442, and 849, respectively. Oversize appeared adequate. Approximate building corner stakes were present at the southwest and southeast building corners of Lots 4 and 1, respectively. Field Density Tests: During the period of April 13 - 16, 1982, we conducted nine field density tests in the fill placed in the area of Lots 1 - 4 of Block 2 of the 3rd Addition. The results of the tests are attached. CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of our observations and field density tests, it is our opinion that earthwork in the area of Lots 1 - 4 of Block 2 of the 3rd Addi- tion have been done in a suitable manner and in accordance with HUD guidelines As the garage areas are filled to attain garage slab grade, the compaction of the backfill should be tested to ascertain whether compaction specifications are being met.
