About this file

This document is a geotechnical exploration report prepared by GeoTrack Technologies, Inc. for Davis & Floyd, Inc. regarding the proposed Connector Road for the North Greenwood Industrial Park (NGIP) located in Hodges, Greenwood County, South Carolina. The report details the results of eight soil test borings (B-1 through B-8) performed along the planned 1,450-foot connector road and a 590-foot access road extending from US Highway 25. The investigation was conducted on April 4, 2023, with borings extending 10 to 25 feet below the ground surface to evaluate subsurface conditions and provide recommendations for road construction.

The geotechnical report reveals that the site consists of 2 to 6 inches of topsoil over residual soils characterized as stiff to very stiff sandy silts, sandy clays, and loose to dense silty sands. No groundwater was encountered during the investigation, and the borings did not hit rock or experience significant excavation challenges. The report recommends a pavement section consisting of 8 inches of stone base, 2.5 inches of asphalt binder, and 1.5 inches of asphalt surface, with alternative full-depth pavement options also provided. The investigation suggests the on-site soils are suitable for structural fill, with recommendations for proper compaction, moisture control, and slope management during construction of the industrial park connector road.

GeoTrack Project No. 23-7164

Ladies and Gentlemen:

GeoTrack Technologies, Inc. has completed a geotechnical exploration for the referenced industrial park connector road. The exploration was performed in general accordance with GeoTrack Proposal No. P22-2244, dated August 2, 2022, as authorized by Mr. Robertson on April 3, 2023. The purposes of the exploration were to evaluate the site soil conditions and provide geotechnically-related design and construction recommendations for development of the connector road and access road. This report presents our understanding of the project, the subsurface exploration performed, the results and our recommendations.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The following is an outline of our exploration findings and recommendations for the two roads.

These recommendations are discussed in more detail in the report text.

• Eight borings (B-1 through B-8) were performed along the road centerlines. The borings encountered about 2 to 6 inches of topsoil at the ground surface. Due to most of the road alignments being heavily wooded, stripping to remove topsoil and tree roots will likely average on the order of 8 to 12 inches.

• Natural, residual soils were encountered beneath the topsoil in each of the borings. The residual soils consist of stiff to very stiff sandy silts and sandy clays, and loose to dense silty sands.

• None of the borings encountered partially weathered rock or auger refusal above the planned boring termination depths of 10 to 25 feet below the existing ground surface.

Based on the boring results, extensive difficult excavation due to partially weathered rock and mass rock appears unlikely.

Report of Geotechnical Exploration, GeoTrack Project No. 23-7164 NGIP Connector Road, Greenwood Co., SC June 2, 2023

• None of the borings encountered groundwater at the time of drilling or after a period of 24 hours. Thus, groundwater should not influence the proposed road construction.

• The on-site residual soils appear satisfactory for use as structural fill. Depending on prevailing weather conditions, some moisture adjustment (wetting or drying) of this material may be required prior to reuse as structural fill.

• Based on the soil conditions encountered and estimated potential future traffic loads, we recommend that the industrial roads consist of at least 8 inches of stone base, 2.5 inches of asphalt binder and 1.5 inches of asphalt surface. If a full-depth pavement section is utilized, we recommend 5 inches of asphalt binder and 3 inches of asphalt surface.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

We have been provided a Boring Locations drawing, dated April 3, 2023, by Davis & Floyd. The drawing shows an approximately 1,450 feet long connector road extending north to south parallel US Highway 25 through the proposed North Greenwood Industrial Park (NGIP) and an approximately 590 feet long access road extending from US Highway 25 to the connector road.

Although we have not been provided road sections, we anticipate maximum cuts on the order of 20 feet and maximum fill embankments on the order of 10 feet. The NGIP Master Plan by Davis & Floyd shows six future industrial buildings (manufacturing and/or warehousing) ranging in size from about 50,000 to 250,000 square feet. The semi-tractor trailer traffic (frequency and loads) will depend on the industries that occupy the buildings.

SCOPE OF EXPLORATION

The subsurface exploration included a site reconnaissance, and eight soil test borings (B-1 through B-8) near locations requested by Davis & Floyd. Borings B-1 through B-6 were located along the connector road, and B-7 and B-8 were located along the access road. The approximate boring locations are shown on the Boring Locations in the Appendix. The borings were located by measuring distances from staked center line locations. Ground surface elevations at the boring locations were provided by Davis & Floyd.

The soil test borings were performed with a CME 550 drill rig mounted on an all-terrain vehicle, and the borings were extended to planned termination depths of 10 to 25 feet below existing grades using hollow stem augers. Standard Penetration Tests were performed at selected depth intervals with an automatic hammer to collect soil samples. A geotechnical engineer reviewed the data and visually classified the soil samples. Groundwater levels were checked in the borings at the time of drilling and after a period of 24 hours, and then the boreholes were backfilled with soil cuttings.

The boring results are summarized in the attached Boring Records. A more detailed description of our exploration procedures is also attached.

EXPLORATION RESULTS

SITE CONDITIONS

The proposed industrial park is located east of US Highway 25 in Greenwood County near Hodges, South Carolina. An abandoned house and a detached garage are located along the access road near Highway 25, and the remainder of the two road alignments are mostly heavily wooded with pine trees, except for an overgrown field near the north end of the connector road. The proposed connector road will be generally situated on a ridge that extends north to south parallel with Highway 25. Based on contours shown on the NGIP Master Plan and elevations provided by Davis & Floyd, the ground surface along the connector road varies from about 580 feet to just over 600 feet and along the access road varies from about 570 feet at Highway 25 to about 600 feet near its intersection with the connector road.

SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

Surface Materials The borings encountered about 2 to 6 inches of topsoil and root mat at the ground surface. Due to tree roots, some variability of the thickness of surface materials should be expected across the site.

Residuum Residual soils were encountered beneath the topsoil in each of the borings to the pre-planned termination depths. Residual soils are natural soils derived from the in-place weathering of the parent bedrock. The residual soils were classified as stiff to very stiff sandy silts and sandy clays, and loose to dense silty sands with varying mica content. Standard penetration resistances ranged from 10 to 41 blows per foot (bpf).

Partially Weathered Rock and Auger Refusal None of the borings encountered partially weathered rock (material with penetration resistances greater than 100 bpf) or auger refusal (typical indicates the presence of mass rock) within the boring depths of 10 to 25 feet.

Groundwater Groundwater was not encountered in the borings at the time of drilling or after a period of 24-hours. Groundwater levels fluctuate with changes in seasons and rainfall levels. Thus, future levels may rise significantly. However, it appears unlikely that groundwater will influence the proposed project.

RECOMMENDATIONS

LIMITATIONS

Our conclusions and recommendations are based on the project described above and the data obtained from our fieldwork. The recommendations are based on generally accepted geotechnical engineering practice in South Carolina at the time of the report. No other warranties are expressed or implied.

The borings performed at this site represent the subsurface conditions only at the exploration and test locations. Some variation in the subsurface conditions should be expected between the boring locations due to natural variations and previous residential and agricultural activities.

Consequently, subsurface conditions may be encountered during construction that will require alternative recommendations.

EARTHWORK

Site Preparation Demolition of the abandoned house and garage should include removal of foundations and underground utilities. We anticipate that site stripping will average on the order of 8 to 12 inches to remove topsoil and extensive tree root systems. Stripped topsoil should be wasted in landscaped areas or hauled off-site.

Subgrade Evaluation After the site is stripped, a qualified geotechnical representative should evaluate the exposed subgrade of areas that are to receive fill and areas that are at final subgrade. The evaluation will help identify soft areas not identified during stripping, and should include proofrolling with a loaded dump truck, pan or similar pneumatic tired vehicle, where possible. During the proofrolling, areas that excessively rut or deflect (pump) should be undercut to satisfactory soils, or other corrective actions should be implemented. Very micaceous soils present at or near final subgrade can be susceptible to disturbance and may “fluff” if not confined by other soils or stone base. If that occurs, the highly micaceous soils should be removed and replaced with less micaceous soils.

Fill Placement Structural fills will be required for pavement embankments. Structural fill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the soil’s maximum dry density obtained from the Standard Proctor Compaction Test (ASTM D-698). We recommend increasing the compaction to 98 percent in the upper 18 inches beneath the roads. To achieve the recommended compaction, the moisture content should generally be maintained within about three percent plus or minus of the optimum moisture content and the loose lift thickness should not exceed about 8 to 10 inches.

Except for the topsoil, the overburden soils encountered in the borings appear satisfactory for use as structural fill. It may be necessary to adjust the moisture content to achieve sufficient compaction, as a result of natural soil moisture or weather conditions immediately before construction. Part-time observation of fill placement should be performed during mass grading and include checking the compaction by performing density tests. The test frequency can be selected by the geotechnical engineer based on the areas to be filled and the construction schedule.

Excavation Difficulty The borings encountered moderate consistency soils to the planned termination depths of 10 to 25 feet. Maximum cut depths are expected on the order of 15 to 20 feet during mass grading. The depth to partially weathered rock and mass rock can be highly variable in the Upstate of South

Carolina. Thus, there is some potential that isolated difficult excavation could be encountered during mass grading of the roads and in deep trench excavations. Mass excavation of partially weathered rock can normally be accomplished with some pre-loosening with a ripper attached to a bulldozer, and trench excavation can be accomplished with a large tracked excavator. Excavation of mass rock typically requires blasting or pneumatic equipment, such as a hoe ram.

Slopes Based on our experience with similar subsurface conditions, we recommend permanent cut and fill slopes no steeper than 2H:1V (horizontal to vertical). We also recommend that temporary slopes be inclined no steeper than about 1.5H:1V, depending on specific soil conditions in the excavations and OHSA requirements. We assess the residual soils at the site to meet the description of a Type C soil based on OSHA Standard 29 CFR (Soil Classification – 1926 Subpart P Appendix A).

It is difficult to construct soil fill slopes to 2H:1V without creating a loose poorly compacted zone near the slope face. For this reason, we recommend that the fill slopes be slightly over-built, and then cut back to firm, well compacted soils prior to applying a vegetative cover. The crest areas should also be sloped to prevent surface water run-off from flowing over the slope face.

RETAINING WALLS

Segmental retaining walls may be required for road embankments. If required, we recommend designing the walls based on an estimated angle of internal friction of 28 degrees, no soil cohesion, and a soil unit weight of 120 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) for properly compacted structural fill.

PAVEMENT THICKNESS DESIGN

The soils encountered in the borings are assessed as moderate relative to pavement support characteristics. The subgrade soils can be expected to provide adequate pavement support when properly moisture-conditioned and compacted. The pavement thickness design should be based on an estimated California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of between about 4 and 6. The recommended heavy duty pavements sections contained in Table should be satisfactory for approximately 200,000 Equivalent 18,000 pound Single Axle Loads (ESALs) over a theoretical 20-year design period. The pavements should be constructed in accordance with the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) Standard Specifications for Highway Construction.

The residual soils and properly compacted fill at the site will exhibit generally favorable long-term strength characteristics beneath completed pavements (as long as they are compacted properly and the pavement has adequate drainage). Exposed micaceous soils may be locally unstable under rubber-tired construction equipment and variations in surface moisture conditions. Therefore, it may be necessary to scarify and re-compact the subgrades immediately before pavement construction, or implement other measures, such as undercutting and replacement, to maintain subgrade stability before or during construction. The exposed subgrade should be evaluated in a manner described in the Earthwork Section, before placing crushed stone or pavement.

EXPLORATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES

Soil Test Borings: Soil sampling and penetration testing for this project were performed in accordance with ASTM D 1586. The borings were advanced with hollow-stem, continuous flight augers and, at standard intervals, soil samples were obtained with a standard 1.4-inch I.D., 2 inch O.D., split-tube sampler. The sampler was first seated six (6) inches to penetrate any loose cuttings, then driven an additional foot with blows of a 140 pound hammer falling 30 inches or with an automatic safety hammer. The number of hammer blows required to drive the sampler the final foot was recorded and is designated the "Standard Penetration Resistance" (N-Value). The Standard Penetration Resistance, when properly evaluated, is an index to soil consistency, strength, density, and ability to support foundations.

Representative portions of each soil sample were placed in glass jars or re-sealable plastic bags and transported to our laboratory. The samples were then visually classified by an engineer to supplement the driller's field classifications. Test Boring Records are attached indicating the soil descriptions and Standard Penetration Resistances.
