Subject: Observation of Hand Dug Pit, Proposed Deck Addition, Existing
Residence, 4314 Streainside Circle West, Vail, Colorado
Dear Mr. Carnie:
As requested, a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical observed the hand dug
pit at the subject site on October 29, 2012 to evaluate the soils exposed for foundation
support. The findings of our observations and recommendations for the foundation
design are presented in this report. The services were performed in accordance with our
agreement for professional engineering services to you dated October 29, 2012.
The deck will be attached to the south side of residence and replace an existing deck. It is
planned to found the deck on isolated footing pads. We assume relatively light
foundation loadings for the deck. The residence has a garden level basement (about 5 to
6 feet deep) and assumed foundation backfill in the area of the proposed deck.
At the time of our site visit, one pit (Pit 1) had been dug to a depth of about 3%z feet in the
area of the deck addition. The pit was located about 6 feet south of the middle of the
south side of the residence. The soils exposed in the pit, below about 2 feet of man-
placed fill, consisted of relatively dense, silty to slightly silty sandy gravel with cobbles
that extended down to the pit depth of 3'% feet. The results of a gradation analysis
performed on a sample of natural coarse granular soils (minus 3 inch fraction) obtained
from the pit are presented on Figure 1. No free water was encountered in the pit and the
soils were slightly moist.
Considering the conditions exposed in the pit and the nature of the proposed construction,
spread footing pads placed on the undisturbed natural coarse granular soils designed for
an allowable bearing pressure of 2,500 psf can be used for support of the deck addition.
There could be some differential settlement with respect to the existing structure which
should be considered in the design. Footings should be a minimum width of 2 feet for the
footing pads. All fill, topsoil and loose disturbed soils in the footing areas should be
removed and the bearing level extended down to the undisturbed coarse granular natural
soils. This could require subexcavation below design bearing elevation in some areas.

The bearing soils should be protected against frost and concrete should not be placed on
frozen soils. The footings should be provided with adequate soil cover above their
bearing elevations for frost protection. Backfill of the footing pads can consist of the on-
site soils, excluding topsoil and oversized rocks, compacted to at least 90%of standard
Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum(95% in slab areas). The Backfill
should have the surface graded to prevent ponding within at least 10 feet of the building
and footing areas.
The recommendations submitted in this letter are based on our observation of the soils
exposed within the pit excavation at the location and to the depth indicated, and do not
include subsurface exploration within the loaded depth of foundation influence. This
study is based on the assumption that soils beneath the depth explored have equal or
better support than those exposed. In order to reveal the nature and extent of variations in
the subsurface conditions below the excavation, drilling would be required. It is possible
the data obtained by subsurface exploration could change the recommendations contained
in this letter. We should observe the footing pads excavations at the time of construction.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our office.
Sincerely,
HEPWORTH-.P._WLAK GEOTECHNICAL, INC.
