I. INTRODUCTION

Earth Engineering Incorporated (EEI) has completed the Geotechnical Investigation for

the proposed Pre-K to Grade 4 Elementary School to be located on School Road in North

Hanover Township, Burlington County, New Jersey. The objective of this project has been to

investigate, document, and analyze the subsurface conditions present at the site. Based on the

conditions encountered and the results of the testing performed for this project, EEI has

developed geotechnical recommendations to aid in the design and construction of the proposed

school building, as well as general earthwork and construction guidelines for the development of

this site.

This study was performed in general accordance with EEI’s Proposal No. WB-5883

dated October 5, 2015. The scope of work for this project included a test boring and test pit

investigation, geologic analysis of site conditions, laboratory testing of soil samples, and a

geotechnical engineering analysis of the data obtained. The following report sections present

the results of our field and laboratory investigations and documents our recommendations

regarding the geotechnical engineering aspects of this project.

II. SITE & PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project site is located on School Road in North Hanover Township, Burlington

County, New Jersey. School Road borders the site to the west. Wooded land borders the site

to the south and east. Existing school properties border the site to the north. The general

location of the project site is presented on the Site Location Map included within the Appendix of

this report.

A school building previously occupied the site. At the time of the field investigation, the

building superstructure was removed but the building slab and foundation elements remained.

Page 4: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

These remnant building features are generally located within a portion of the proposed school

building. An existing shed is also located within proposed parking areas. Significant portions of

the proposed construction area are grass covered. Portions of the proposed building area and

parking lot are wooded. An asphalt paved driveway that provides access to the subject site also

traverses the proposed building area. In addition, asphalt playing courts and two (2) baseball

fields occupy the proposed building area. Several utilities also traverse the proposed

construction area. A meandering stream is located beyond the property border to the south and

east. An ephemeral stream, which is oriented in an east-west trend, is located beyond the area

of proposed construction to the north.

In general, the topography slopes from the south gently to steeply downward to the

north. The areas of the former building area and upper baseball fields are generally flat.

Traversing the site from south to north the site slopes moderately to steeply downward to the

lower playing fields. Maximum relief across the area investigated measures approximately 30.0

feet.

According to the Concept Exhibit plan, Drawing C-11, prepared by Pennoni Associates,

dated July 28, 2015 an approximate 1500,000 to 160,000 square foot steel and masonry

bearing building is proposed for construction at the site. The building will be 1 to 2 stories in

height. Maximum estimated column loads of 155 kips and maximum estimated walls of 3.2 kips

per foot were provided by Harrison-Hamnett, P.C.. In addition to the school building, new

driveway and parking lots are included in the planned site development.

The location of the proposed school building, relative to existing site features, is shown

on the Testing Location Plan, EEI Drawing No. 28337.J0-B-101, included in the Appendix of this

report.

III. FIELD INVESTIGATION

Twenty-seven (27) standard earth borings were originally proposed to be conducted at

the project site. Due to weak soil conditions several borings were extended beyond the

proposed drilling depth. Consequently, borings B-7 and B-18 were not performed. EEI also

adjusted the depths of several parking lot borings to maintain the project drilling budget. The

test borings were completed by F.M. & W. Drilling Company of Bellmawr, New Jersey on

November 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9, 2015.

The test borings were advanced using a truck mounted drill rig equipped with hollow

stem augers and split spoon samplers. Split-spoon samples, conducted in accordance with

ASTM standard D1586, were taken at regular intervals throughout the depth of the borings.

Standard Penetration Test (SPT) values were recorded for each sample. The SPT values,

which are a measure of soil density and consistency, are the number of blows required to drive

a 2-inch (outer diameter) split-barrel sampler one foot using a 140-pound weight dropped 30

inches. The number of blows required to advance the sampler over the 12 inch interval from 6

to 18 inches is considered the "N" value, or the SPT value which is recorded on the boring and

test pit profiles, Sheet 1 through 7, included in the Appendix. Test boring logs containing

sample depths, descriptions of the materials encountered, and SPT values are also included in

the Appendix.

Six (6) test pits, designated as TP-1 and TP-6, were performed within the proposed

construction areas. Test pits TP-1, TP-2, and TP-3 were performed to evaluate the limits of a

potential organic zone observed in boring B-4. As detailed below, organic testing from these

locations indicate an organic content of less than 2 percent indicating the layer observed is

inorganic. Test pits TP-4 and TP-5 were conducted in an area of the site requiring potential

significant excavation to achieve proposed parking lot grading. Test pit TP-6 was performed to

Page 6: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

evaluate the existing foundation elements. The test pits were excavated on November 17, 2015

by Advantage Site Work of Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey utilizing a Volvo Ec1600 track-hoe.

The test borings and test pits were field located by scaling and measuring distances

from existing site features. The ground surface elevations at the testing locations were

estimated using the topographic contours shown on the referenced Concept Scheme plan.

Supervision and monitoring of the test boring and test pits were provided by a representative of

Earth Engineering Incorporated. The relative location and corresponding number of each boring

and test pit, relative to the existing and proposed site features, is shown on the Testing Location

Plan.

IV. LABORATORY TESTING

All soil samples were taken to EEI's soils laboratory and visually classified by our

engineers. In addition to visual classification, nine (9) representative soil samples recovered

from the subsurface investigation were subjected to laboratory classification analysis. The

laboratory testing conducted on the samples consisted of standard classification testing, in

accordance with ASTM standard D2487, to verify visual classifications and to establish

engineering parameters required for foundation design analysis. The tests performed included

Particle Size Analysis (ASTM D422), Atterberg Limits Determination (ASTM D4318), and

Natural Moisture Content (ASTM D2216). One (1) Moisture-Density test (ASTM D698,

Standard Proctor) was also conducted on a bulk sample of soil retrieved from the site.

The results of the laboratory testing conducted are presented in Table I. Gradation

curves, graphically depicting the results of the particle size analyses, in addition to results of the

Moisture Density testing are included in the Appendix.

V. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

A. Geology

According to the 1998 Bedrock Geologic Map of Central and Southern New Jersey, the

area investigated is underlain by the Kirkwood Formation Lower Member (Geologic Symbol -

Tkl) near contacts with the Vincentown Formation (Geologic Symbol – Tvt).

The Kirkwood Formation is lower Miocene in age and consists predominantly of sand

and clay. The upper sand facies consists of fine to medium grained massive to thick bedded

and cross-bedded light yellow to white sand with extensive iron oxide staining in near surface

beds. The lower thick bedded strata commonly consists of clay or clay silt sequences which are

typically dark gray in color and occasionally contain wood fragments, lignitized logs, twigs and

plant debris.

The Vincentown Formation is Paleocene in age and is primarily quartz and glauconite

sand, medium grained, well to poorly sorted, dusky yellow to pale gray in color. This formation

weathers orange brown or red brown and is typically very glauconitic and clayey. Feldspar and

Page 10: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

mica are minor sand constituents.

Based upon the observations made during the field investigation, the natural soils

encountered throughout the test borings appeared to be typical of Kirkwood Formation Lower

Member and Vincentown Formation.

B. Soils

Each of the soil samples recovered from the testing operation was examined and

visually classified by EEI. One (1) material described as FILL and three (3) naturally occurring

soil strata were observed at this site. The bedrock surface was not encountered to the depths

achieved.

A surface layer of topsoil was encountered at most test locations. The topsoil thickness

varied from 2.5 to 7 inches. The ability of the topsoil to support plants and vegetation was not

determined and is not implied by EEI. In addition, the depth or thickness of topsoil is expected

to vary across the project area and may differ from that stated above.

Cross-sections of the borings and test pits, displaying the various strata and other

information obtained from the field investigation are included on the boring and test pit profiles.

The test boring and test pit information is further detailed on the boring and test pit logs also

included in the Appendix. A general description of each stratum is as follows:

FILL

The soil designated as FILL is visually described as a yellowish brown to orange brown,

brownish green and gray fine to coarse Sand, trace to some Silt, no to little Gravel, no to little

Concrete Fragments. This material was encountered at the ground surface or below the

surficial materials in borings B-1, B-10, B-13, B-14 B-15, B-16, B-23, and B-25, and test pit TP-

Page 11: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

6. Where found the FILL extends to depths ranging from 0.7 to 7.8 feet below the existing

ground surface. This soil appears typical of the reworked natural soil found at the site.

SPT values ranging from 5 to 11 blows on the sampling barrel per foot of penetration

were recorded while sampling this soil. Based on the SPT values, the FILL exists in a loose to

medium dense state.

STRATUM I

The material designated as Stratum I is visually described as a multi-colored fine to

medium Sand, little to some Silt, no to little Gravel, no to trace Clay. As determined by

laboratory testing, the USCS Group Symbol for representative samples of this soil is SM. The

assigned ASTM Group Name for the samples tested is Silty Sand. Stratum I was encountered

in each test boring with the exception of boring B-14 and each of the test pits with the exception

of TP-6. Where found the Stratum I soil extends downward to the Stratum II or Stratum III soils

or to the conclusion depths of the borings or test pits.

It is noted that a gray and dark brown layer of soil was observed within Stratum I in

boring B-4, and test pits TP-1, TP-2, and TP-3. Due to the appearance of this soil and a slight

organic odor, EEI performed organic content testing on three (3) representative sample of this

layer retrieved from boring B-4 and test pits TP-2 and TP-3. Laboratory testing of

representative samples measured organic contents ranging from 0.16 to 1.21 percent,

respectively. Based on these measured organic contents this layer is considered inorganic and

will not impact the proposed site development.

SPT values ranging from 2 to 28 blows on the sampling barrel per foot of penetration

were recorded while sampling the Stratum I soil. Based on the SPT values, Stratum I exists in a

very loose to medium dense state.

Page 12: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

10

STRATUM II

The soil designated as Stratum II is visually described as multi-colored Silt, little to some

fine Sand, no to trace clay, and no to trace organics. As determined by laboratory testing, the

USCS Group Symbol for representative samples of this soil is ML. The assigned ASTM Group

Names are Silt and Sandy Silt. Although portions of this soil appeared cohesive, laboratory

testing determined this soil is non-plastic. As received moisture contents for the Stratum II

samples tested ranged from 24.9 to 35.4 percent. The high moisture content of this soil resulted

in some samples of this soil appearing very moist to wet. However, the recorded groundwater

levels were measured below this stratum. Thus, the Stratum II soil may be acting as a limiting

zone that has such low permeability that it effectively restricts the downward passage of

infiltrating water. Stratum II was encountered in borings B-10 through B-22 and B-24 and test

pit TP-6. Where observed this soil extended to the Stratum III soil or the conclusion depth of the

borings and test pit.

It is noted that a gray and dark brown layer of soil was also observed Stratum II in

borings B-10 and B-17. Due to the appearance of this soil and a slight organic odor, EEI

performed organic content testing on two (2) representative sample of this layer retrieved from

borings B-10 and B-17. Laboratory testing of representative samples measured organic

contents of 6.08 and 5.46 percent, respectively. Foundation construction measures will bypass

the soils containing organic material and thus will not impact the proposed site development.

SPT values ranging from 2 to 12 blows on the sampling barrel per foot of penetration

were recorded while sampling this soil. Based on the SPT values, Stratum II exists in a very

loose to medium dense state. In general, the Stratum II soil exists in a very loose to loose state.

Page 13: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

11

STRATUM III

The soil identified as Stratum III is described as a multi-colored fine to medium Sand,

little to some Silt, no to little Gravel. As determined by laboratory testing, the USCS Group

Symbol for a representative sample of this soil is SM. The assigned ASTM Group Name is Silty

Sand. Laboratory analysis determined the sample tested to be non-plastic and possess a

moisture content of 27.5 percent. Stratum III was encountered in each of the borings conducted

within the building area. Where observed this soil extended to the conclusion depths of the

borings.

SPT values ranging from weight of hammer (zero blows) per foot of penetration to 50

blows on the sampling barrel per four inches of penetration were recorded while sampling this

soil. Based on the SPT values, Stratum III exists in a very loose to very dense state.

C. Groundwater

Groundwater was encountered in most of the borings completed. The recorded initial

and subsequent depths to groundwater range from 5.5 to 23.0 feet below the existing ground

surface. The groundwater depths correspond to high groundwater elevations ranging from 88.0

to 94.8 feet. Table III below details the groundwater level readings at the test locations.

Groundwater level readings are also shown on the boring profiles and logs.

Based on the anticipated building finished floor elevation of 109.0 feet, excavation

necessary for foundation installation is not expected to encounter the recorded groundwater

levels. It should be noted that the groundwater observations were made at the time of the

drilling operation and that groundwater table elevations may fluctuate with daily, seasonal, and

climatic variations.

VI. EXISTING FEATURE DEMOLITION

EEI recommends the complete removal of the remnant slab and foundation elements.

Existing utilities should also be completely removed from and rerouted outside the area of the

proposed building. Proof-rolling within demolition areas will be important since the soil

underlying these areas will be disturbed during the demolition effort. Upon confirmation of a

stable soil subgrade, the excavation can be backfilled up to the proposed construction subgrade

elevation with controlled compacted lifts of structural fill as detailed in the Structural Fill section

of this report. The removal of existing foundation elements and subsequent excavation

backfilling should be evaluated and monitored by a representative of the Geotechnical Engineer

of Record. Demolition debris including, but not limited to, concrete and asphalt should be

processed as detailed in the Fill and Compaction section if intended for reuse as structural fill.

EEI performed a test pit adjacent to the existing building to evaluate the existing

foundations. Figure 1 below shows an existing column foundation. EEI partially excavated

below the footing and probed below the footing and determined it was supported on the Stratum

II soil. The top of the 44” x 44” square footing is situated at a depth of 6.3’ and the bottom of the

Page 16: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

14

footing is situated at a depth of 7.7’ below existing surrounding grades.

Figure 1 – Existing footing to be removed and replaced with compacted lifts of structural fill.

VII. SITE PREPARATION

In addition to demolition and removal of existing site features, initial site preparation

measures should include the complete removal of the asphalt and crushed stone pavement

subbase and all organics, including topsoil, trees, and root mass extending a minimum distance

of 5 feet beyond the proposed construction areas. Based on the building finished floor elevation

of 109.0’, fill placement of up to 12.0 feet will be required to achieve the corresponding build pad

Page 17: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

15

subgrade elevation. Following excavation to achieve proposed grades and prior to the

placement of structural fill, the proposed building areas should be proof-rolled and compacted.

It is recommended that a steel drum vibratory roller having a minimum static weight of 10 tons

be utilized for this purpose.

Proof-rolling and compaction procedures are necessary to compact and verify the

integrity of the upper zones of the soils. Soft/loose zones of soil attributed to excessive soil

moisture, if any, can be aerated and dried in-place. Aeration and drying of excessively moist

soil are best accomplished in warm dry summer months. Following adequate drying time, the

soils can be densified in-place. Alternately, any soft/loose zones of soil can be removed and

replaced with structural fill, as outlined in the Fill and Compaction section of this report. The

proof-rolling effort should be observed and evaluated by a qualified representative of the

Geotechnical Engineer of Record.

The site should be graded during construction to direct surface runoff away from the

construction areas. Proper grading and management of surface runoff will help minimize

disturbance of the subgrade. Additionally, work areas should be sealed on a daily basis.

Furthermore, EEI recommends that all construction areas, including those which are excavated

to achieve the planned subgrade elevation, be proof-rolled immediately prior to the placement of

subbase stone and again prior to the concrete floor and asphalt pavement section. This will

allow for loose and weak areas to be observed and remediated.

Page 18: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

VIII. FOUNDATION DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS

A. Building Pad Construction and Floor Slab Support

As previously discussed, the proposed finished first floor elevation of 109.0 feet will

require the placement of up to approximately 12.0 feet of structural fill to achieve the

corresponding building pad subgrade elevation. Engineering analysis indicates that the

placement of up to 12.0 feet of structural fill will result in consolidation of the underlying natural

soil. EEI estimates that the primary consolidation period should last approximately 30 days and

that building construction should be delayed until consolidation from the surcharge is complete.

Prior to the placement of structural fill, EEI recommends the installation of at least 6

settlement plates to monitor surcharge settlement. The settlement plate can consist of a vertical

metal pipe welded to a stiffened steel plate. Structural fill is then placed on the settlement

plates and around the pipe. Sections of pipe can be added as needed based on the thickness

of fill to be placed. A detail of the settlement plate is included in the Appendix, EEI Drawing No.

26101.J0-A-102. The settlement plates and attached pipe will enable monitoring of the vertical

settlement resulting from the surcharge load. The settlement plates should be monitored at

least two (2) times a week by a professional land surveyor with second order accuracy using at

least 2 control points outside the building construction influence area.

EEI will evaluate the survey results from monitoring of the settlement plates on a weekly

basis to determine when the actual duration of the surcharge can terminate. A detailed

settlement monitoring program can be provided by EEI at the request of the client.

Following completion of the building pad surcharge, EEI recommends the building slabs

be constructed as slab-on-grade. EEI recommends a minimum four (4) inches of granular sub-

base be placed beneath the slab to provide uniform support distribution between the subgrade

soils and the base of the concrete slab. Floor slabs supported on a minimum 4-inch thick layer

Page 19: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

of a clean stone, AASHTO #57 or equivalent can be designed using a modulus of subgrade

reaction of approximately 150 psi/inch. This recommendation is provided that the soils are

compacted to a minimum of 98% of the soils maximum dry density as determined by ASTM

D698 (Standard) in fill areas and assume that adequate slab reinforcing and joints to control

cracking will be provided. EEI also recommends the use of a vapor barrier in conjunction with

the clean stone capillary break.

B. Foundation Settlement Analysis The results of the field study, supported by laboratory testing, revealed that the general

geotechnical cross-section within the building area consists of a loose to medium dense FILL

material, very loose to medium dense natural Stratum I soil and very loose to loose Stratum II

soil situated above very loose to very dense Stratum III soils. Based on the subsurface

conditions encountered in the test borings, the site soil density conditions are highly variable.

Engineering analysis of the site conditions indicates that settlements above acceptable limits

are expected if conventional shallow foundations are placed on or above the site soils.

EEI evaluated the foundation settlement based on the maximum anticipated building

column loads of 155 kips and a soil bearing pressure of 3000 psf. For the maximum anticipated

column load of 155 kips and a 3000 psf soil bearing pressure, total foundation settlement of up

to 3.0 inches and differential settlement of up to 2.0 inches are estimated. EEI also evaluated

foundation settlement utilizing building column loads of 155 kips and a bearing pressure of 2000

psf. For the maximum anticipated column load of 155 kips and a 2000 psf soil bearing

pressure, total foundation settlement of up to 2.25 inches and differential settlement in excess of

1.0 inch are estimated.

Page 20: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

18

Therefore, Earth Engineering has evaluated several foundation support alternatives

which would meet the criteria of limiting settlements to generally accepted tolerances and

provide adequate bearing. Of the alternatives evaluated, those deemed most appropriate by

EEI for this site include Rammed Aggregate Piers and Timber Piles.

It is noted that the deep foundation system utilized for this project should bypass the

existing FILL materials and natural Stratum I and Stratum II soils and bear on the suitably dense

Stratum III soils. Furthermore, installation of the chosen deep foundation system within the area

of newly placed structural fill shall commence after monitoring of the fill consolidation is

completed. Deep foundation alternatives including rammed aggregate piers and timber piles for

support of the building column and wall loads are provided in the following subsections.

C. Rammed Aggregate Pier (RAP) Option

Rammed Aggregate Piers (Geopiers®) consist of aggregate piers constructed in soil to

reinforce the subsoils in order to support relatively high capacity spread and strip footings. The

RAP support elements are constructed by drilling a hole to create a cavity, removing a volume

of compressible subsoil materials, then building a bottom bulb of clean, open-graded stone

while vertically pre-stressing and pre-straining subsoils underlying the bottom bulb. The RAP

shaft is built on top of the bottom bulb, using well-graded highway base course stone (NJDOT

dense graded aggregate or equivalent) and/or an aggregate cement mix placed in twelve (12)

inch lifts. Densification of the bottom bulb and of the shaft lifts are accomplished by using the

impact ramming action of a modified hydraulic hammer. The tamper consists of a special steel

alloy shaft and a round, beveled tamper head. The beveled tamper head assists in transferring

force laterally during impact densification, resulting in pushing of aggregate against the confined

walls of the cavity. The nature of soil is to “push back”, creating significant lateral soil pressure

Page 21: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

19

build-up in the matrix soil and lateral confinement to the RAP elements. In addition to

increasing shear resistance at the RAP element perimeter, the increased horizontal stress

improves the matrix soils and makes them stiffer. The structure is then supported on a standard

shallow foundation system, with an increase of bearing on a composite of the stone columns

and the adjacent pre-stressed soils. It should be noted that the recommended technique will

require proper implementation of a specified plan, including strict field controls to assure that the

objectives have been met and that costs have been controlled.

The licensed RAP foundation installer would design and install RAP foundations for this

project. Responsibility for settlement performance is accepted by the RAP design-build team. It

is recommended that the RAP foundation installer review and analyze the subsurface data

contained in this report using available structural load and design information. After designing

the support system, the RAP foundation installer should provide a cost and time estimate. The

cost estimate should include the cost to provide a full-scale RAP Modulus Load Test on-site to

verify design assumptions.

Considering the newly placed structural fill rammed aggregate piers are not required for

support of strip footings in areas of newly placed structural fill exceeding 3 feet in depth. Due to

the relatively light strip footing loads of 3.2 kips per linear foot a foundation undercut may be

substituted for strip footing support in lieu of RAP support in the upslope building areas that

requiring little or no structural fill placement. The strip foundation undercut should extend a

minimum of 2B (B = strip foundation width) below the proposed footing bottom elevation.

Subsequently the undercut shall be backfilled with controlled compacted lift of NJ DOT dense

graded aggregate or equivalent. A cost analysis should be performed to evaluate the cost

effectiveness of substituting the foundation undercut for strip foundation support versus strip

foundation support via rammed aggregate piers.

Page 22: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

20

The following foundation system recommendations are provided by EEI, based upon

geotechnical engineering analysis of the data obtained during the investigation and the

assumption that the recommendations presented are followed.

1. Supported on the composite soil and RAP elements, column and strip footings are expected to be designed for an allowable composite bearing pressure of 6,000 psf.

2. Due to the variability in the FILL and natural Stratum I and Stratum II soils, it is recommended that the RAP be drilled through the FILL and Stratum I and Stratum II soils and into the suitably dense Stratum III soils.

3. The base of the foundations will be situated on the RAP columns and densified pre-

stressed soils. 4. EEI recommends at least one (1) modulus load test be performed. The modulus test

should be situated at a location(s) to be determined by the Impact Pier designer in cooperation with the Professional Geotechnical Engineer.

5. The Professional Geotechnical Engineer should observe and record all RAP installation activities in order to satisfy applicable building code requirements and prepare a permanent record of RAP activities, and recommended changes during production if field conditions warrant such action.

6. The Professional Geotechnical Engineer should prepare or be provided the opportunity

to review and comment on all RAP specifications.

7. The bottom of exterior footings and footings in unheated areas should be placed at least three (3) feet below the final exterior grade for protection from frost heave.

8. After the installation of the RAP, all footing bottoms should be completely dry and

cleaned of loose/soft soils or debris immediately prior to the placement of concrete. The base of the foundation excavation will require densification in place. The base of all foundation excavations should be compacted with a “jumping jack” tamper to densify and verify the integrity of the footing bottom. Soft/loose soils which cannot be compacted due to high moisture content shall be removed and replaced with structural fill, as deemed necessary by the site engineer.

Page 23: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

21

D. Timber Pile Option

Standard Southern Pine, treated piles with an 8" minimum tip diameter and natural taper

and comply with ASTM D25 can also be used for support of the foundation loads. The

recommended design allowable pile capacity is 20 tons supported in the suitably dense Stratum

III soil. These recommendations were developed based upon the geotechnical engineering

analysis of the data obtained during the investigation. When driving the piles in the field, EEI

recommends that the ENR formula be satisfied to determine the terminal resistance of the piles.

This formula is presented as follows:

S= 2(Wh)H - C Qa

where: (Wh)H is the rated energy for the specific hammer used for the pile driving operation.

· Qa is the allowable pile capacity. · C is a constant, such that,

C = 1.0 for drop hammers and 0.1 for steam/air hammers. · S is the pile penetration (inches per blow) Based on the data obtained within the test borings, piles with lengths ranging from 23.0

to 27 feet below existing site grades are estimated for this project to allow for firm seating within

the suitably dense Stratum III soil. The calculated pile lengths correspond to an average length

of 25.0 feet. The pile length range and average length were determined based on the existing

ground surface elevations. At or below these depths, it is believed that piles will be firmly

seated within suitably dense Stratum III soil. These estimates are based on an engineering

analysis utilizing the data obtained from the geotechnical investigation. The actual average pile

length can vary significantly and therefore the final pile installation contract quantities should be

based on the actual depths driven.

Page 24: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

22

It is possible that some piles may require driving to greater depths in order to achieve

their allowable load bearing capacities. Therefore, it is recommended that a test pile program

be implemented. The test pile program should consist of a minimum of three (3) test piles to be

driven across the site. This program will enable a suitable pile driving criteria to be developed at

the site and allow for a more accurate estimation of required pile lengths. Provided that the test

piles are driven to a design load equal to or greater than the required load bearing capacity of

20 tons per pile, these piles may be used as production piles.

Pre-drilling, spudding may be required to advance the timber piles through denser zones

of the Stratum I soil. Driving shoes will also be required to protect the pile tip and prevent

splitting of piles that encounter very dense soil conditions. It should be noted that pre-drilling,

spudding, and driving shoes, if required, will result in additional construction costs. Therefore,

the project specifications should include provisions for pre-drilling, spudding, and driving shoes.

Vibration or vibration-induced soil densification may result in settlement damage

to structures located within approximately 500 feet of the pile driving location. Any

neighboring structures should be thoroughly examined prior to and after pile driving with

the examinations fully documented with photographs. During the pile driving operation,

vibration-monitoring devices should be used to monitor the effects of the pile driving

operation.

During the driving of the test piles, the same equipment and procedures should be

followed as those reviewed and approved by the Geotechnical Engineer for the installation of

structural piles.

The requirements for the deep foundation system for the structure are outlined below.

1. Twenty (20) ton design capacity timber pile foundations are recommended for support of the building columns, load bearing walls, and canopy foundations.

Page 25: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

23

2. For estimating purposes, the pile tip take-up depths are estimated to range from 23 to 27 feet below the existing ground surface. The average pile length has been estimated at 25.0 feet. The recommended pile design capacity and depth were determined based on engineering analysis. These will require verification by a test program prior to installation of production piles. Increased depths may be required to reach the specified terminal resistance, as weaker zones in Stratum I and Stratum II may be encountered during installation.

3. Pile settlements are expected to be negligible. 4. Pre-drilling through denser zones of the Stratum I soil may be required at some pile

locations. 5. Pile, pile cap, and structural slab design should be in accordance with local building

code, latest edition. 6. The bottom of exterior pile caps and grade beams should be placed a minimum of 3'

below finish grade for frost protection. 7. The pile driving operation should be performed under the supervision of a Professional

Engineer registered in the State of New Jersey and qualified in Geotechnical Engineering.

8. The pile caps should be designed to adequately spread uniform loading to the piles. 9. Prior to the installation of the piles, the contractor, experienced in foundation system

installation, should submit a pile driving scheme, a description of the hammer to be used, and a sequence of work to the Geotechnical Engineer for approval. Their credentials and the planned construction procedures should be reviewed and approved prior to issuing a notice to proceed.

IX. EXCAVATION METHODS

Excavation required for installation of the foundation elements and basin construction

will occur within the FILL material and natural soils. The bedrock surface was not encountered

in any of the test borings or test pits to the depths achieved. Therefore, rock excavation will not

be required for the proposed site construction.

The non-cohesive, granular nature of the FILL and natural Stratum I soils may require

the footings be formed due to the potential of excavation sidewall collapse. Excavations must

Page 26: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

24

be sloped, benched or shored to prevent collapse during soil excavation and provide a safe

working environment. Sloping, benching, or shoring of all construction excavation should be

conducted in accordance with 29 CFR 1926, Subpart P. A competent person as defined by the

aforementioned regulation is required to confirm the stability of all excavations during

construction. The actual excavation wall slopes, benching, or shoring should be field

determined and should be based on the required depth of excavations and on the soil types

encountered.

X. GENERAL PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

It is the opinion of EEI that the existing FILL material and natural soil are generally

capable of providing pavement support. This recommendation is based on the assumption that

all pavement areas be proof-rolled and evaluated prior to the placement of the sub-base stone

and again prior to asphalt placement. It is imperative that a stable subgrade be realized to

ensure the durability and longevity of the pavement section.

Proof-rolling should be performed with a steel drum vibratory roller having a minimum

static weight of 10 tons. Excessively moist soil encountered at the pavement subgrade will

result in an unstable subgrade. Therefore, any excessively moist soil should be aerated,

sufficiently dried, and densified in-place. Alternately, stabilization can be performed via soil

over-excavation and replacement utilizing a geogrid stabilization material to provide a stable

pavement subgrade. It is also assumed that periodic maintenance, such as patching and

sealing, is performed at regular intervals. The proof-rolling effort and evaluation should be

conducted under the supervision of the Geotechnical Engineer of Record.

Page 27: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

25

XI. FILL AND COMPACTION

A. Fill Criteria

Fill material which supports foundations, slabs, and pavements, in addition to material

used for retaining wall backfill is considered structural fill. Following the performance of the site

preparation measures as discussed in Section VII of this report, structural fill required to achieve

proposed construction elevations may be placed. Excavation necessary for site construction is

expected to make the FILL and natural Stratum I and Stratum II soils available for use as

structural fill.

Based on visual observation, the FILL material is non-plastic and consists primarily of

fine to coarse Sand, trace to some Silt, no to little Gravel, no to little Concrete Fragments. The

FILL material encountered in the test borings was free of organics and other deleterious

materials and appears suitable for reuse as structural fill. EEI recommends the FILL material be

further evaluated during site construction activities by the on-site Geotechnical Representative

during fill placement. FILL material containing significant organics or other deleterious material,

if any, should be stockpiled separately and used in non-structural areas of the site or disposed

of properly.

As determined by laboratory testing and visual observation, the Stratum I soil is non-

plastic and consists primarily of fine to medium Sand with varying secondary constituents of Silt

and Gravel. This predominately granular soil is suitable for reuse as structural fill for building

pad and parking lot/driveway construction. Laboratory testing as per ASTM D698 of a

representative sample of the Stratum I soil measured an optimum moisture content of 9.6

percent. The natural moisture content measurements of representative samples of Stratum I

ranged from measured 6.9 to 17.6 percent. Based on the laboratory results and visual

observation, portions of the Stratum I soil exists at or in proximity to its optimum moisture

Page 28: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

26

content and is suitable for use as structural fill in its current moisture state. Excessively moist

portion of the Stratum I soil were generally located in the lower elevations of the site where fill

placement will be required to achieve proposed grading.

Laboratory classification testing determined the Stratum II soil consists of Sandy Silt and

Silt. The natural moisture content testing on these samples measured 24.9 to 35.4 percent.

Based on the laboratory testing and visual observation, the fine grained Stratum II soils

generally exist in an excessively moist state. Due to the primarily fine grained nature of the

Stratum II soil, significant difficulties achieving the required densities and percentage

compaction values will be realized if these on-site soils are re-used as structural fill during the

cool, wet Fall, Winter, and Spring months. Therefore, based on the elevated moisture content

and fine grained content, the Stratum II soils are not considered an ideal source of soil for reuse

as structural fill within building and driveway areas. The suitability of the Stratum II soil for reuse

as structural fill can be reevaluated during site construction activities by the on-site Geotechnical

Representative.

Excessively moist portions of the FILL and natural soil that are suitable for re-use as

structural fill will require time for aeration and drying to achieve the required densities and

percentage compaction values. Aeration and drying of excessively moist soil are best

accomplished during warm dry summer months.

The on-site soils will require careful moisture control as portions are fine-grained and

sensitive to moisture changes. Caution should be exercised during construction to not stockpile

and/or expose these soils to weather conditions for long periods of time. Materials stockpiled

for use as structural fill should be graded to shed water and rolled to maintain the soils. During

periods of wet site conditions, travel upon the building pad and construction areas should be

limited to minimize disturbance of the subgrade which will lead to instabilities.

Page 29: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

27

Existing concrete slab and foundation elements may be utilized as structural fill provided

it is processed to less than 4 inches in diameter and mixed with the suitable natural soils to

provide a well-graded material. Likewise, existing crushed stone and asphalt may be

stockpiled and reused as structural fill materials in the driveway areas, as long as local

regulations are adhered. EEI recommends the asphalt be processed to less than 4 inches in

diameter and mixed with crushed stone or suitable on-site soil to provide a well-graded mix.

These materials will also prove useful in stabilizing any soft/loose subgrade conditions observed

during proof-rolling of the parking lot and driveway areas.

No other significant sources of structural fill material are present at the site. If

necessary, EEI recommends that a borrow source with a granular soil be established, or a

modified crushed aggregate, such as NJDOT dense graded aggregate, be utilized for filling

purposes at this site. Any structural or load-bearing soil for use is the building area, which is

required to be imported to the site, should meet the following criteria:

- Free of organic matter, ash, cinders, deleterious material, and debris.

- Particle size distribution that is well graded.

- Plasticity index less than 10.

- less than 15 percent by weight rock fragments larger than 3", less than 30 percent by weight larger than 3/4" and less than 30 percent by weight smaller than the No. 200 sieve.

The above criteria are provided as a general guideline for soil materials to be imported to

the site. Soil materials available for use as a structural fill should be submitted to the

Geotechnical Engineer of Record for evaluation and subsequent consideration prior to its

importation to the site.

Page 30: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

28

B. Compaction Criteria

Structural fill should generally be placed in horizontal lifts not exceeding eight (8) inches

in loose thickness and compacted with a minimum ten (10) ton steel-drum, smooth-barrel

vibratory roller. Fill material should generally be placed in horizontal lifts not exceeding six (6)

inches in loose thickness where compaction by hand-operated equipment is necessary. The

optimum lift thickness and number of repetitions necessary to achieve the required percentage

compaction values should be determined in the field with test passes of the chosen compaction

equipment. All structural fill should be placed at the optimum moisture content ± 3% as

determined in accordance with ASTM D1557 and compacted to a minimum percentage of the

maximum dry density as indicated in Table IV.

XII. GENERAL SOIL PROPERTIES

A. Lateral Earth Pressures

The lateral earth pressures that may be used for design purposes of retaining walls or

walls constructed below grade are shown in Table V. Retaining walls which are restrained from

deflection such as loading dock, basement, or other structure walls, should be designed for the

at rest (Ko) condition. Retaining walls which are free to deflect such as landscaped walls should

be designed for the active (Ka) condition. The data for the natural soils was determined based

upon standard classification testing and/or visual classification of the site soil samples

compared to generally accepted published values for the various properties.

These values do not include a design safety factor. This information should only be

used by design professionals with experience in this type of design as certain soil parameters

can vary depending on anticipated loading conditions.

EEI typically recommends that a drainage system be installed for all walls constructed

below grade. The presence of a drainage system will serve to minimize hydrostatic pressures

caused by water trapped against the walls. If adequate drainage is not provided, the walls

should be designed to resist hydrostatic loads. Additionally, consideration should be given to

any surcharge loads at the top of walls.

If segmental walls are chosen for this project, the wall designer should determine if

additional investigations and testing are warranted depending on the type, size, and location of

the proposed walls. At a minimum, EEI recommends additional laboratory testing, specifically a

Direct Shear test (ASTM D3080), be conducted on representative soils if concrete masonry unit

(CMU) or mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining walls are proposed for the site. The

results of this test may provide more aggressive soil parameters to be used in retaining wall

design, which may effectively reduce retaining wall costs.

Page 32: REPORT OF GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED PRE-K …

B. Seismic Design Criteria

According to the 2009 International Building Code IBC Section 1615.1.1 Site Class

Definitions, and based on data from the borings and calculations performed by EEI, the average

properties in the top 100 feet correspond to Site Class E.

XIII. CONSTRUCTION QUALITY CONTROL

The development of this site will involve significant earthwork and foundation

construction activities, the quality of which directly impacts the validity of the recommendations

presented in this report. Based upon past experience, the most effective and economical

construction and earthwork inspection is obtained through the presence of a qualified

representative of the Geotechnical Engineer of Record. Therefore, it is recommended that the

site preparation, placement of structural fill, and foundation construction be observed, tested,

and documented in the field by EEI.

XIV. LIMITATIONS

The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based upon the

subsurface data collected and on details stated in this report. Should conditions arise which

differ from those specifically stated herein, or if design criteria are modified, our office should be

notified immediately so that our recommendations can be reviewed and revised, if necessary.

Unless specifically indicated to the contrary in this report, the scope of this report is

limited to only investigations and evaluations of the geotechnical aspects of the site conditions

and does not include any considerations of potential site pollution, contamination or other
