About this file
This document is a geotechnical investigation report for the repair of Taxiway November at Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield, California. The investigation, conducted by Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc. in May 2018, involved drilling 4 shallow hollow-stem auger borings to a depth of 10 feet at approximately 180-foot intervals along the proposed repair alignment. The project scope includes demolishing the existing deteriorated taxiway pavement and replacing it with a new Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement structure across an area approximately 600 feet long and 80 feet wide, along with installing new subsurface drainage systems.
The geotechnical report details the site's geological conditions, which consist of Pleistocene-aged alluvial fan deposits with a fill unit of silty to clayey sand overlying a native alluvial lean to fat clay unit. Laboratory testing revealed the soils have high plasticity, with Clay Bearing Ratio (CBR) values ranging from 1.5 to 2.9 and subgrade modulus values from 67 to 373 pci. Corrosion testing indicated the soils are non-corrosive. The report recommends potential subgrade stabilization using cement treatment and provides detailed analysis of soil conditions, moisture content, and compaction characteristics to support the pavement reconstruction project.

GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION REPORT
Taxiway November
Travis AFB Fairfield, California
1.0 INTRODUCTION
In support of AFCEC Task Order FA8903-18-F-0074, A&E Services for Repair Taxiway
November Adjacent 400 Ramp & Upgrade Drawings Ramp 400 at Travis AFB, Wood
Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc. (Wood) is pleased to present this geotechnical investigation report for the proposed repair of the Taxiway November adjacent to the 400 ramp at Travis AFB in Fairfield, California. See Figure 1 for the location of the site.
The project description and scope of work are described in Sections 1.1 and 1.2, respectively.
The geotechnical investigation is described in Section 2.0. The site conditions, including the surface and subsurface conditions and geologic setting, are described in Section 3.0. A discussion and evaluation of the geotechnical considerations such as corrosion and subgrade modulus value recommendations are presented in Section 4.0. The basis for recommendations and references are described in Sections 5.0 and 6.0, respectively. Supporting material for the field investigations and recommendations are presented in three appendices.
1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
We understand that the improvements to the portion of Taxiway November adjacent to the
400 ramp will include demolishing the existing deteriorated Taxiway November pavement and replacing it with a new PCC pavement structure in the approximate area shown in Figure 2. The area will be about 600 feet in length and 80 feet in width. Included with the full-depth pavement reconstruction, the project will install new subsurface drainage systems. However, no other changes or improvements to asphalt shoulders, lighting, or signage systems are anticipated.
The existing pavement is being replaced due to deterioration as the evaluation of the pavement in 2012 resulted in a poor rating, with reported distresses including cracking, sealant damage, patches, settlement, and spalling.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK
The purpose of our work is to provide geotechnical support for the development of the project design.
The current investigation consisted of drilling and logging 4 shallow hollow-stem auger borings for the project. The borings were performed at about 180-foot intervals along the proposed repair alignment in order to investigate the soil variation for the site and to collect samples for geotechnical laboratory testing. These borings were about 10 feet in depth.
Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) testing was also performed in the upper several feet of each boring location.
The primary purposes of the current investigation were to characterize subsurface soil conditions at the site, perform laboratory testing, and develop geotechnical recommendations and design criteria for pavement construction for the proposed project. Specifically, the following information, recommendations, and design criteria are presented in this report:
Summary description of site terrain and local geology.
Description of subsurface soil conditions interpreted based on our field exploration and laboratory testing.
Logs of borings, DCPs, and results of laboratory tests.
Summary of DCP, CBR, and subgrade modulus (k) values for site soils.
Evaluation of corrosion potential for site soils.
Other services related to environmental assessment, characterization, and/or remediation were not included in our scope of work and have not been conducted as part of this investigation.
2.0 GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
The geotechnical field exploration and laboratory testing programs that were performed for the site are summarized below.
2.1 FIELD EXPLORATION PROGRAM
Wood personnel visited the site on May 3, 2018, to review access, mark proposed boring locations, and mark the investigation area for Underground Services Alert (USA). Base operations representatives escorted the Wood personnel to the project site. USA was notified
Appendix D, Page 5 of 67
X:\5021183074_Travis AFB Taxiway\01_ text, cvrs\Taxiway_November_Geotech text.docx 3 on April 27, 2018, of the planned field investigation. An Air Force Base Civil Engineering Work
Clearance Request was also prepared and submitted on April 27, 2018.
The field investigation was conducted at the site on May 15 and 16, 2018, by Wood geotechnical engineer Kevin Burlingham, and subcontractor Woodward Drilling. The field investigation consisted of 4 shallow borings advanced using hollow stem auger drilling methods using a BK-81 drill rig. The borings were located along the proposed pavement replacement alignment at approximately 180-foot intervals and were drilled to depths of about
10 feet (all depths were measured from the top of existing pavement). Approximate boring locations are indicated on Figure 2.
Prior to drilling with the hollow-stem auger, the existing concrete pavement was cored by Cal-
West Concrete Cutting using a 12-inch-diameter core barrel. The thickness of the existing concrete pavement varied from about 16 to 26 inches.
Following the concrete coring, the hollow-stem auger was used to break up and drill through the cemented soils underlying the concrete. Then DCP testing was conducted in each borehole to a depth of about 5 feet below the top of pavement. After DCP testing was completed, hollow-stem auger drilling and soil sampling was begun.
Soil samples were obtained nearly continuously from near the bottom of the pavement to the full depth of 10 feet. A Standard Penetration Test (SPT) split spoon sampler (1.375 in ID, 2 inch
OD) was used in the borings. The SPT sampler did not have room for liners. The SPT sampler was driven using a 140 lb automatically-tripping hammer falling approximately 30 inches.
Woodward Drilling noted that the hammer for the rig had a hammer efficiency of 76.5 percent based on recent energy measurements. Bulk samples were also taken for each boring from the hollow-stem auger soil cuttings and placed in a 5-gallon bucket.
Preliminary soil classifications were made visually in the field in general accordance with the visual-manual method (ASTM D2488). The relative density of generally cohesionless soils and the consistency of cohesive soils were estimated based on the SPT blow counts. Soil colors were described using the Munsell Soil Color Chart. Preliminary locations of the exploratory borings were measured in the field and marked on a plan for Taxiway November. Final locations of the borings were taken from the survey data conducted for the project.
Appendix D, Page 6 of 67
4 X:\5021183074_Travis AFB Taxiway\01_ text, cvrs\Taxiway_November_Geotech text.docx
All soil samples were sent to the Wood geotechnical laboratory in Los Angeles, California, for testing. Final boring logs were prepared based on the field logs, examination of samples in the laboratory, and laboratory test results. Plates A-1A and A-1B provide descriptions of terms used in the boring logs. The final boring logs, created using gINT, are presented in Appendix A.
2.2 DYNAMIC CONE PENETRATION (DCP) TESTING
DCP testing was conducted to depths of about 5 feet in each of the boring following the coring of the concrete and the break-up of any cemented soils directly underneath the existing concrete. The DCP test is a hand held device used as a general assessment of the strength of the native soils by driving the DCP cone using an approximate 17.6 pound hammer. The device used in the field study consists of two 5/8-inch-diameter shafts coupled near the midpoint. The lower shaft is attached to the pointed cone tip; it is driven into the soil by dropping a slide hammer along the upper shaft to strike the anvil. The total penetration for a given number of blows is measured and recorded in millimeters per blow (mm/blow). A 2-foot extender rod was used below the anvil on the DCP device to reach the required depth below the top of pavement. A standard 0.79-inch-diameter cone was used for the testing. The number of blows per set were adjusted in the field based on the penetration rate. Logs for the DCP testing are included in Appendix B. It is noted that because the DCP was started below the top of pavement, the first set of blows was not conducted at a penetration reading of 0 mm as typically done for DCP testing. Average penetration per blow for the DCPs ranged from 6 to 12 mm, with the penetration per blow for any blow set ranging from 2 to 22 mm.
2.3 LABORATORY TESTING
Following the completion of the borings, geotechnical laboratory testing was performed by
Wood and AP Engineering and Testing on a selection of the soil samples collected. Samples were selected for testing in order to cover the range of variation in the soils logged. Laboratory testing include the following tests:
Moisture content: 4 tests (ASTM Test Methods D 2216);
Atterberg Limits, Liquid and Plastic Limits: 4 tests (ASTM Method D 4318);
Grain-size distribution: 4 tests (ASTM Method D 422);
Modified Proctor compaction: 4 tests (ASTM D1557 Method A Modified);
CBR: 4 tests, samples were soaked (ASTM Method D 1883-16); and
Appendix D, Page 7 of 67

Corrosion testing: 4 tests (Chlorides and Sulfates with Caltrans 417 and 422, respectively; pH, and Resistivity with Cal 643).
The results of the laboratory tests are presented in Appendix C. Below is a summary of the laboratory testing results. Corrosion test results are summarized in Section 4.3.

3.0 GEOLOGIC SETTING AND SITE CONDITIONS
The site is located at Travis AFB in Fairfield, California, along Taxiway November adjacent to the
400 ramp. The following sections describe the site geology, existing surface conditions, and subsurface soil and groundwater conditions encountered during the investigation.
3.1 SITE GEOLOGY
Travis AFB is located on the western edge of the Sacramento Valley segment of the Great
Valley Geomorphic Province. The Coast Range Geomorphic Province, which consists of folded and uplifted bedrock mountains, lies to the west of Travis AFB (Thomasson et al., 1960;
Olmsted and Davis, 1961).
Appendix D, Page 8 of 67
6 X:\5021183074_Travis AFB Taxiway\01_ text, cvrs\Taxiway_November_Geotech text.docx
The geomorphology of Travis AFB is characterized by gently sloping alluvial plains and fans.
These coalescing, low-relief fans were deposited by Ulatis, Union, Alamo, Laurel, and Suisun
Creeks. Most of the alluvial material was deposited prior to the last period of glaciation during the Pleistocene Epoch, and is referred to as Older Alluvium. During the last 15,000 years, as sea levels have risen, the drainages have refilled with alluvium. This material is referred to as
Younger Alluvium. Some topographic relief in the form of very low ridges has been caused by outcroppings of sedimentary rock in the Travis AFB area.
From a review of geologic maps for the area it appears that the site is underlain by the
Pleistocene aged alluvial fan deposits. Figure 3 is a geologic map illustrating the distribution of shallow bedrock units and alluvium in the vicinity of Travis AFB. Bedrock at Travis AFB consists of consolidated to semiconsolidated sedimentary rock.
At Travis AFB, the overall thickness of the alluvium ranges from 0 to approximately 70 feet but is generally less than 50 feet. West of Travis AFB, the thickness of the alluvium increases to more than 200 feet (Thomasson et al., 1960).
3.2 SURFACE CONDITIONS
The project site consists of an airfield taxiway with existing PCC pavement. At the time of the field investigation, there was ongoing construction adjacent to the site that consisted of some removal of existing pavement. The existing PCC pavement was 16 to 26 inches thick as encountered at the boring locations. The site elevation ranges from approximately 53 feet above sea level, to approximately 55 above sea level.
3.3 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS AND MATERIALS
The soils encountered below the existing pavement during the field exploration program included a silty to clayey sand fill unit overlying a native alluvial lean to fat clay unit.
The fill unit varied in thickness from 1.5 to 3 feet and was sometimes cemented in the upper 3 to 12 inches due to possible lime treatment. The fill consisted of medium dense silty to clayey sand with trace gravel. The fill was mostly dry and varied from yellowish brown to olive brown.
The native unit was underlying the fill unit to the maximum depth explored of 10 feet. It consisted of 1 to 4 feet of dark olive gray to greenish black very stiff fat clay overlying yellowish brown very stiff sandy lean clay. The clay was typically moist.

See the boring logs in Appendix A for more detailed descriptions of the soils encountered in each boring.
3.4 GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS
Groundwater was not encountered in the shallow borings drilled for the project. Based on a boring for the adjacent 400 ramp, that is about 400 feet from the Taxiway November project site, groundwater could be at a depth of about 12 feet.
4.0 EVALUATIONS
4.1 PRIMARY GEOTECHNICAL CONCERNS
Based on the results of our geotechnical investigation, we conclude that the planned development is feasible from a geotechnical standpoint. The main concern associated with the project is expected to be the variation of soils along the alignment and the presence of high plasticity clays.
4.2 CBR AND SUBGRADE MODULUS VALUES
Based on the lab testing and DCP testing, CBR and subgrade modulus (k) values can be determined for the site soils. To complete these evaluations the correlations shown in Figure 5-
3 of UFC 3-260-02 were used to correlate the DCP testing values to both CBR and subgrade modulus values, and to correlate the CBR laboratory test results to subgrade modulus. The
DCP logs in Appendix B contain the individual CBR and subgrade modulus values evaluated for each blow set as well as average values for the entire DCP test. Below is a summary of the CBR and subgrade modulus values evaluated from the DCP and lab testing. The CBR values listed below for the testing are for the 0.1 inch penetration and Relative Compaction of 95%. Overall, the laboratory testing produced lower CBR and subgrade modulus values than those estimated from the DCP values, likely due to the soaking of the samples and also possibly the remodeling of the samples during the laboratory testing.

4.3 CORROSION
For underground structure elements and utility lines, Caltrans Corrosion Guidelines, November
2012, Version 2.0 considers a site to be corrosive if one or more of the following conditions exist for the representative soil and/or water samples taken at the site:
Chloride concentration is 500 parts per million or greater;
Sulfate concentration is 2,000 parts per million or greater; and pH is 5.5 or less.
Caltrans Corrosion Guidelines, November 2012, Version 2.0, also states that a resistivity value of less than 1,000 ohm-cm for the soils is indicative of corrosive soils but testing for sulfates and chlorides should be completed on low-resistivity samples to determine if they are corrosive.
Four samples (bulk samples for B1, B2, B3, and B4) along the project alignment were tested for corrosion potential and resulted in the following values:
Resistivity ranged from 764 to 1,128 ohm-cm;
Chloride concentration ranged from 32 to 51 parts per million (ppm);
Sulfate concentration ranged from 76 to 565 parts per million; and pH ranged from 8.0 to 8.4.
Based on this laboratory data for the site, the soils are considered non-corrosive.

4.4 TREATMENT OF SUBGRADE
In order to create a stable working platform to facilitate construction, the exposed subgrade may need to be stabilized. The exposed subgrade will likely consist of a combination of moist high plasticity clays in some areas, and silty to clayey sand fill in other areas of the site.
Because a portion of this exposed subgrade is expected to consist of non-plastic silty sand, where lime treatment would likely not be effective, it is recommended that the subgrade be stabilized using cement treatment. However, because the purpose of this subgrade stabilization is to facilitate construction, and subgrade stabilization is not being counted on for the final design, the final determination of whether to treat at all, whether to use lime or cement, and what depth and additive proportions to use should be determined by the contractor.
5.0 BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The recommendations made in this report are based on the assumption that soil and groundwater conditions do not deviate appreciably from those disclosed in the exploratory borings drilled at this site. If any variations or undesirable conditions are encountered during construction, the effects of these conditions on the recommendations presented herein should be evaluated and, if necessary, supplemental recommendations developed. The recommendations are made for the proposed project described in this report. Significant changes in location, type, or embedment of the structure, or loading conditions should be evaluated as to their effects on the recommendations.
A geotechnical engineer should observe earthwork construction to confirm that subsurface conditions encountered during construction are comparable to those used for developing the recommendations presented in this report. Unanticipated subsurface conditions, which cannot be disclosed fully by exploratory borings and test pits, commonly are encountered and frequently require additional expenditures to attain a properly constructed project. Some contingency funding is recommended in case conditions encountered during construction require additional exploration, testing, or design modifications.
In the performance of our professional services, Wood, its employees, and its agents comply with the standards of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of our profession practicing in the same or similar localities. No other warranty, either express or implied, is
