RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS
1. C100, Note 14 mentions abandonment of existing wells. Cost is dependent on circumstances, and no such wells are identified. Are there wells to abandon?
RESPONSE: No wells will be demolished as a part of this project.
2. C100, Note 15 indicates no heavy equipment in tree protection zone without approval of forester. No such areas are designated on clearing plan. Did you intend to identify tree protection areas on demo sheet?
RESPONSE: The proposed clearing limit is shown on C100. The tree protection zone will be behind the proposed clearing limits. Note 15 updated for clarity.
3. C301–302 "TP" is indicated running along the tree line. There is no explanation for TP in the legend for this page or on C000. Is this intended to be tree protection fence?
RESPONSE: Yes, tree protection fence has been added to the erosion control plan legend.
4. C301 inset match line does not line up with match line for main drawing on page.
RESPONSE: Match lines adjusted on erosion control plans.
5. C402, Grading Plan B does not appear to have any final contour lines. We see no grading indicated here. Did you wish to include grading instructions on this sheet?
RESPONSE: C402 includes the sidewalk grading. Will remove this sheet and add the sidewalk continuation as a separate view on Sheet C401.
mailto:collegeenvironment@rccc.edu
6. C403, Storm Drain Table has information for EX1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. EX1 is shown connecting to A3 via A2. EX1 is the only structure identified in the plans. You have given rim, invert, and pipe lengths for these structures. What, if any, work is contemplated for these structures (other than coring into EX1) and where are they located?
RESPONSE: The existing structure and pipe extend to the existing wet pond on site. There will be no modifications to these pipes and structures and are shown for information only. Additional view added to C403.
7. C404 Alternate FM has an open-cut street crossing on one end of the FM replacement but crosses another paved surface at the other end (parking lot driveway). Do you intend open cut or some sort of bore here? No instruction is given for this crossing.
RESPONSE: This second crossing will also be an open cut. Additional information provided on C201 and C404.
8. C404 Alternate FM planned route crosses within 1 foot, as measured on plan, to three existing tree trunks. This will likely kill the trees by destroying the root ball. Did you intend to route the proposed FM this close to the existing trees?
RESPONSE: FM has been adjusted to provide clearance from tree root zone.
9. C404 Alternate FM indicates connection to existing pump station gravity sewer, but no connection is depicted in plans.
What is required for connection to pump station and where is pump station located?
RESPONSE: Pump station location added to C404.5.
10. 10.C405 Proposed 3-inch DIP and 6-inch DIP water and fire lines under Navigation Way connect to two existing boxes per plan. What are these boxes and what is needed for connection to them?
RESPONSE: Those boxes are backflow assemblies and will be constructed with a separate project. They are not part of this scope.
11. 11.C405 waterline station numbers are listed as 10+00 and 10+50 on 8-inch line. These numbers do not make sense based on what is shown on the sheet. Are we missing a sheet with other waterline?
RESPONSE: Intent of this profile is only to show the waterline crossing under the road and the crossing information from the proposed storm pipe. The name of the profiles depicts the information being presented in them. The alignment starts at 10+00.
12. 12.C405 waterline branches under Navigation Way have station numbers that do not make sense unless they are a continuation from waterline station numbers from a previous line.
RESPONSE: The profiles show what the intent is at each end of the crossing. The alignment starts at 10+00.
13. Bid Form – Unit price alternates #6 and #9 are identical. Did you intend these to match unit pricing on 01 22 00-1?
RESPONSE: The bid form has been updated to match 01 2200.
14. C500 – The typical for the roundabout shows stone under the 24-inch curb and gutter. The detail for 24-inch curb and gutter on sheet C500 shows curb on grade. Does all 24-inch curb and gutter outside the points of curvature of the roundabout get installed on grade, and all curb and gutter in the roundabout get installed on stone?
RESPONSE: All 24” curb and gutter outside of roundabout will be installed on compacted subgrade per detail on sheet C500. Curb and gutter for roundabout will be installed on aggregate base course per typical section detail.
15. Is there a subsurface report that can be shared for the subject property?
RESPONSE: Geotechnical evaluation was not provided for this specific project, but an evaluation was performed for the adjacent Technology Education Complex project and has been included with Addendum 1.

March 22, 2024 Mr. Danny Carpenter Executive Director of Planning & Capital Projects Rowan-Cabarrus Community College PO Box 1595 Salisbury, North Carolina 28145
Reference: Geotechnical Engineering Evaluation Proposed RCCC North Campus TEC and FAC Expansion Salisbury, Rowan County, North Carolina CESI Job Number 240103.000
Mr. Carpenter, Concord Engineering & Surveying, Inc. (CESI) has performed a geotechnical engineering evaluation for the proposed Technology Education Complex and Future Automotive Center Expansion on the Rowan-Cabarrus Community College North Campus in Salisbury, North Carolina. We completed this geotechnical engineering evaluation per your request and our proposal dated February 21, 2024.
We understand the proposed development will include the construction of new education buildings, asphalt paved parking lots and roadways, associated underground utilities, and required stormwater management structures. Currently the proposed development area consists of undisturbed woodlands.
Between the dates of March 7 and 13, 2024, thirty-eight soil test borings were advanced within the entire proposed development area.
- Sixteen soil test borings were slated to be advanced to a depth of 20’ below existing ground surface (BGS) within the footprints of the proposed buildings, with two additional borings slated to be advanced to a depth of 40’ BGS for seismic purposes,
- Fourteen soil test borings were slated to be advanced to a depth of 10’ BGS within the proposed parking and drive lanes,
- Two borings were slated to be advanced 15’ BGS in the proposed stormwater BMP ponds,
- Four preliminary borings were slated to be advanced to 20’ BGS in a proposed future building site.

At the surface of each of the soil test boring locations, a layer of topsoil and clearing/organic debris or grass measuring between 5” and 12” was present.
Beneath the grass, topsoil and organic debris, previously placed FILL soils were encountered at four of the soil test borings, specifically soil test boring locations B-15 and B- 33 through B-15. Where encountered, the previously placed FILL soils ranged in depths between 1.5’ to 6’ BGS. Texturally the previously placed FILL soils consisted of stiff clayey SILT (ML) and soft to stiff silty CLAY (CL), both containing varying amounts of fine to coarse SAND (SM), OLD TOPSOIL, and fine GRAVEL.
Weathered in place (residual) soils were encountered beneath the previously placed FILL soils where encountered, and beneath the topsoil at soil test boring locations B-4 through B- 14, B-16 through B-32, and B-36 through B-38. Texturally the residual soils consisted of:
• Soft to very hard SILT (ML) containing varying amounts of CLAY (CL), mica, fine to coarse SAND (SM) and fine GRAVEL,
• Soft to stiff CLAY (CL) containing varying amounts of SILT (ML), fine to coarse SAND (SM) and fine GRAVEL,
• Dense fine to coarse SAND (SM) containing varying amounts of SILT (ML) and fine
GRAVEL.
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 4
It should be noted that some of the residual SILT (ML) soils and slightly plastic CLAY (CL) soils exhibited slightly elastic/plastic characteristics at the surface of soil test boring B-27 and B-28. These soils should be closely monitored if used for structural support or as structural FILL soils elsewhere in the development area. FAT CLAY (CH) soils were encountered at the surface of soil test borings B-37 and B-38 up to 3.5’ BGS. The FAT CLAY (CH) soils should be thoroughly stripped from areas to provide structural support and used in non structural areas of the site.
NRCS has listed the site as having the following primary soil series: Appling Sandy Loam (ApB), and Rion-Wedowee Complex (RnC). Based on NRCS published documents, Appling Sandy Loam (ApB) soil series is known to contain FAT CLAY (CH) between 10” to 39” BGS, and the Rion-Wedowee Complex (RnC) soil series is known to contain ELASTIC SILT (MH) soils from 15” to 29” BGS. ELASTIC SILT (MH) soils were not directly encountered at any boring locations. However, ELASTIC SILT (MH) soils may be encountered at other unexplored areas of the site. FAT CLAY (CH) soils were directly encountered at two test boring locations, specifically soil test boring B-37 and B-38 between 1.5’ and 3.5’ BGS. ELASTIC SILT (MH) and FAT CLAY (CH) soils have a high shrink-swell potential and are unsuitable for direct footing, slab, and pavement support. Slightly to moderately elastic SILT (ML), and slightly to moderately plastic CLAY (CL) soils were encountered at several of the test pit locations. We anticipate these soils will be suitable for structural fill or mixed with suitable soils to provide structural support as long as they remain stable during grading and construction operations.
GROUNDWATER was not encountered at any of the boring locations after reaching termination depths. Based on these observations, we do not anticipate complications due to groundwater during grading and construction operations, nor do we anticipate additional underslab drainage systems be required. If shallow groundwater is encountered during foundation or utility installation, CESI should be contacted for engineering recommendations.
SEASONAL HIGH-WATER TABLE (SHWT) determinations were performed at two locations on the site during our soil test boring investigation. Soil test borings B-12 (approximately 779’ elevation) and B-24 (approximately 775’ elevation) were performed within the proposed stormwater BMP pond locations.
- SHWT Location B-12: The boring was dry at the time of drilling. However, after 48 hours CESI returned and the water within the excavation was 6” from the surface of the boring. Our field engineer noted that it appeared that the B-12 area was a ‘bowl’ and water from the adjacent roadway and wooded area tended to migrate toward the boring location. Based on our boring and field observations, water encountered should be considered ‘trapped water’ and the seasonal high water table should be near elevation 767.
- SWHT Location B 24: The boring was dry at the time of drilling and dry 48 hours after drilling. Based on our boring and field observations, the seasonal high water table should be deeper than elevation 760.
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 5
WEATHERED ROCK was encountered at two soil test boring locations, specifically soil test boring B-21 and B-22 at 33.5’ BGS and 13.5’ BGS, respectively. Texturally the WEATHERED ROCK consisted of very dense silty fine to coarse SAND (SM). Based on our observations, and depths of the WEATHERED ROCK encountered, we do not anticipate complications with WEATHERED ROCK during grading and construction operations.
AUGER REFUSAL rock was not encountered at any of the test boring locations. Based on our observations, we do not anticipate complications due to auger refusal rock during site development. However, some isolated BOULDERS may be encountered in areas of deeper cuts during grading operations or foundation / utility installation.
Recommendations
Site Grading
Existing plans of the construction area should be reviewed, and the site should be should have any existing underground utilities marked and located. Conflicting utilities such as water, sewer, power, and gas should be removed, relocated, or protected. Any utilities encountered in the proposed development area should be properly disconnected and moved prior to grading operations.
Construction must be scheduled carefully to maximize the benefits of seasonal weather conditions and minimize downtime for soil modification or remediation. For maximum benefit, it is recommended that mass grading operations be performed during the summer months. Grading and building operations should not occur during or immediately following periods of heavy precipitation.
It was noted that small isolated seams of OLD TOPSOIL or organic stained soils were encountered within the previously placed FILL soil matrix during drilling operations. The presence of additional soils containing elevated amounts of organics may be encountered during grading and building construction operations, especially in the cleared, grassy area around soil test borings B-33 and B-34. Several piles of previously stockpiled soils were observed in this area as well. If soils containing elevated organic matter are encountered during grading and foundation construction operations, the condition should be thoroughly evaluated prior to continued construction. After stripping, we anticipate any soils cut down to grade may be used as structural fill where required. However, based on the fine texture of the on-site soils, lightweight appearance, and the lack of granular structure encountered, we anticipate these soils will be sensitive to moisture. Additionally, we do not anticipate the residual soils will be suitable for retaining wall backfill. Soils containing OLD TOPSOIL, organic matter, ELASTIC SILT (MH), or FAT CLAY (CH) soils should not be used as structural fill or placed in areas to provide structural support.
After stripping, we recommend that the areas to receive fill, or provide structural or pavement support be carefully evaluated for the presence of soft surficial soils by
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 6 proofrolling with a 25-ton, four-wheeled, rubber-tired roller, a loaded dump truck, or similar approved equipment. The proofroll operation should be carefully monitored by our Engineer. Areas that wave, rut, or deflect excessively and continue to do so after several passes of the proofroller may need to be undercut to stiffer soils. The undercut areas should be backfilled in thin lifts with approved structural fill materials listed below. CESI recommends our Engineer be present to evaluate these areas during preparation for site development. Areas that are to be cut down to grade should be thoroughly evaluated by proofrolling after achieving design elevations.
Cut slopes or embankment slopes should not exceed 1:1 plus 5’ beyond structure edge to retain soil stability, and 3:1 plus 5’ for areas requiring grounds maintenance. Any deep cuts or confined excavations, if required for utility installation or foundation construction, should conform to applicable OSHA regulations and North Carolina State Building Codes
Due to the nature of the onsite soils, we recommend that positive surface drainage be maintained during grading operations to prevent water from ponding and deteriorating the graded surface. The surface should be rolled smooth to enhance drainage if precipitation is expected. Subgrades damaged by construction equipment should be immediately repaired to avoid further degradation in adjacent areas and to help prevent water ponding.
Fill Material and Placement
Recommended criteria for soil fill characteristics and compaction procedures are listed below. The project design documents should include the following recommendations to address proper placement and compaction of project fill materials. We do not recommend the use of soils of high plasticity, with a PI greater than 25 as structural fill. Earthwork operations should not begin until representative borrow soil samples are collected and tested (allow 3 to 4 days for sampling and testing).
Earth Fill Materials
❑ General guidelines for project fill should control properties such as Plasticity Index (PI), gradation, and organic content. The use of the following USCS soil types, as defined by ASTM D 2487, should be satisfactory for use as project fill: GW, GP, GM, GC, SW, SP, SM, SC, CL, ML, MH (provided the PI is 25 percent or less for MH soils), or combinations thereof.
❑ Organic content should be no greater than 5 percent by weight, and no large roots should be allowed. Additionally, maximum particle sizes should be limited to 4 inches or less.
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 7
Compaction Recommendations
❑ One standard Proctor compaction test and one Atterberg limits test for each soil type used as project fill. Atterberg as well as gradation tests should be performed at the Project Geotechnical Engineer’s discretion.
❑ Maximum loose lift thickness – 8 inches.
❑ Compaction requirements – 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by the standard Proctor compaction test at all depths with 100 percent of the maximum dry density for the top 12 inches.
❑ Soil moisture content at time of compaction – within plus 3 percent to minus 3 percent of the optimum moisture content.
❑ One density test every 2,500 square feet for each lift or two tests per lift, whichever is greater (for preliminary planning only; the test frequency should be determined by our Geotechnical Engineering staff).
❑ Trench fill areas – one density test every 75 linear feet at vertical intervals of 2 feet or less.
Shallow Foundations
The building foundations should be sized for a maximum net allowable bearing pressure of 2,500 pounds per square foot. The exploration findings indicate the building may be supported by shallow spread footings bearing on stiff to very hard residual soils and newly placed structural fill soil. Based on our subsurface findings, we anticipate a total settlement potential of the footings to be less than 1” and maximum differential settlement to be less than a 1/2”. All footings should bear at a minimum depth of 12 inches below exterior grades for frost protection. Properly reinforced building footings with adequate slab control joints are recommended to handle slight differential settlements, if they occur.
Building Foundation Construction
Based on our findings, we anticipate the on site residual and properly placed FILL soils will be suitable for conventional foundation construction, pending they do not contain elevated amounts of organics, or ELASTIC SILT (MH) or FAT CLAY (CH). Excavated foundation bearing surfaces should be inspected by our Engineering Technician under our Engineer’s review prior to concrete placement to confirm that suitable soils are present at the bearing elevation. We recommend that bearing surfaces be evaluated by hand auger borings with Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) testing equipment prior to concrete placement to determine whether the foundation bearing soils encountered during construction are similar to those found during our geotechnical exploration.
DCP testing is a verification tool to be used for an economical bearing grade evaluation during construction. It will help detect isolated areas of soft residual soils or loosely compacted soils. Unsuitable soil detected during this evaluation should be repaired as directed by the geotechnical engineer. Footing bearing grades identified as having soft
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 8 soils should be undercut and replaced with properly compacted structural fill soils or compacted aggregate base course stone. The depth and width of undercutting should be recommended by our Engineer.
Bearing surfaces for shallow spread foundations should not be disturbed or left exposed during inclement weather. Saturation of the on-site soils will cause a loss of strength and increased compressibility. Excavations for footings in stiff residual soils or newly placed structural fill should be completed with a smooth bucket backhoe following excavation to reduce disturbance of the subgrade soils. Confined excavations should conform to applicable OSHA regulations and North Carolina State Building Codes. Upon their exposure, bearing grades should have excess and loosened material removed. The final grades should be firm and stable, and free of loose soil, rock, mud, water, or frost. If construction occurs during inclement weather and concreting of the foundation is not possible at the time it is excavated, a layer of lean concrete should be placed on the over excavated bearing surface subsequent to testing for protection. Also, concrete should not be placed on frozen subgrades.
Slab on Grade Construction
Based on our findings and anticipated loading, standard slab on grade with turndown footing or foundation walls may be utilized. Due to the presence of lightweight, moisture sensitive soils on the site, we recommend a minimum of 5” layer of compacted aggregate base course (ABC) stone be installed between the finished soil subgrade and concrete slab. The ABC stone should be placed on a thoroughly proofrolled and approved building pad subgrade. Expansion and crack control joints should be properly cut and spaced based on slab designer recommendations. A recommended subgrade modulus (modulus of subgrade reaction) of 150 psi/in should be utilized based on the predominantly SILT (ML) and clayey SILT (ML) soils encountered on the site.
Seismic Information
In accordance with the International Building Code (IBC) as adapted by North Carolina and Chapter 20, Table 20.3-1 of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 7-16 Design Standards, a Site Class “D” should be assigned to the site for seismic design purposes. Site specific subsurface data was determined to the boring termination depth of up to 40 feet below existing grade. The Seismic Site Class is derived from the standard penetration test data recorded during drilling.
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 9
Retaining Wall Parameters
It is our understanding that retaining walls may be required on the site. The walls should be designed using active earth pressure parameters. Walls that will be prevented from rotating and not free to deflect should be designed to resist the at-rest lateral earth pressure. Soils behind the retaining walls are assumed to exert a triangular stress distribution, which can be modeled in terms of an equivalent fluid weight. Passive earth pressure of soil adjacent to the footing, as well as soil friction at the footing base, may be used to resist sliding. The following table contains values of earth pressure coefficients and equivalent fluid unit weights for the active, at-rest, and passive earth pressure conditions.

In addition to the above, we recommend retaining walls be designed not to exceed a foundation bearing of 2,500 psf.
Pavement Recommendations
Based on our understanding of proposed construction, asphalt pavement will be used in parking and drive lanes, with the potential for some amount of concrete drive pavement within ancillary areas on the site. Below are the recommendations for asphalt and concrete pavement sections.
Standard Duty Asphalt Pavement Section
Recommended Thickness
Recommended Pavement Section
2 inches Asphalt Surface Course — Type S 9.5C

14.0 inches Total Recommended Section
Concrete Pavement Section
Recommended Thickness
Recommended Pavement Section
6 inches 4,000 psi Air Entrained Concrete
6 inches Aggregate Base Course (ABC)
12.0 inches Total Recommended Section
The above asphalt and concrete sections are for a properly prepared surface, thoroughly proofroll under the direction of CESI. Placement of asphalt sections should be in accordance with NCDOT guidelines. Placement of concrete sections should be in accordance with NCDOT and ACI guidelines.
CESI Project Number 240103.000 Page 11
FOLLOW-UP SERVICES
Field observations, monitoring, and quality assurance testing during earthwork and pavement construction are an extension of the geotechnical design. As a result, we recommend the following:
• Proofroll observations of stripped areas prior to structural fill placement,
• Verification of removal of unstable soils identified by proofrolling efforts,
• Drive tube and nuclear density testing of structural fill and utility trench backfill operations,
• Dynamic cone penetrometer testing within excavated footings,
• Reinforcing steel inspections within excavated footings and slabs on grade,
• Sampling and testing of fresh concrete for footings, slabs on grade and paving,
• Structural steel and structural masonry inspections,
• Proofroll observations within pavement areas prior to aggregate base course stone, asphalt and concrete placement,
• Nuclear density testing of soil subgrades, aggregate base course stone and hot mix asphalt.
Limitations of Report
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Rowan-Cabarrus Community College and their designers for specific application to the proposed project described in this report using generally accepted standards of geotechnical engineering practice in the State of North Carolina. No other warranty is expressed or implied. This company is not responsible for the conclusions, opinions, or recommendations of others based on this data, nor do we accept any responsibility for others' job-site safety, which is the sole responsibility of each contractor.
Our conclusions and recommendations are based on the design information furnished to us, the assumptions outlined above, and our past experience. They do not reflect variations in the subsurface conditions, which are likely to exist between our test borings in unexplored areas of the site. If such variations become apparent during construction, it will be necessary for us to re-evaluate our conclusions and recommendations based upon on-site observation of the conditions.
