About this file

This is a geotechnical engineering report prepared by AIMRIGHT Testing & Engineering for site preparation work at Claremore Indian Hospital in Oklahoma, dated August 15, 2024. The report analyzes subsurface conditions for a planned one-story modular structure through soil testing at five boring locations to depths of 15 feet, finding primarily lean clay and fat clay soils with varying amounts of sand and sandstone fragments. No groundwater was encountered during testing.

The report provides detailed technical recommendations for site preparation, foundation design, and construction, including: site drainage requirements, fill material specifications, shallow foundation parameters with a net allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf, and minimum footing embedment of 24 inches. The analysis concludes the site is suitable for the planned development using a concrete shallow foundation system, though it notes some potentially adverse subsurface conditions including clay with low to moderate shrink/swell potential and existing fill at depths of 3.5 to 6 feet. The report emphasizes the importance of proper drainage, construction monitoring, and verification of foundation subgrades by a geotechnical engineer prior to concrete placement.

1.0 PROJECT INFORMATION

1.1 Description

We previously issued a Geotechnical Engineering Report on August 17, 2022, for project No. 11390722 for the planned construction at this site. We understand that the planned one-story modular structure layout has been revised and moved to the north of the previously planned layout.

The site is developed with existing structures, concrete surfaces, above/below grade infrastructure and grass covered areas with little trees or shrubberies. Select existing site elements will be demolished and removed from the site prior to beginning construction.

The site is generally level with minimal elevation differences across the site. Cut/fill depths have not been finalized; however, we estimate that cut/fill of approximately 6 to 18 inches will be required to reach the final site elevations.

The structure is anticipated to be mainly wood framed and supported by a concrete masonry block supported (2 x 2 ft concrete pads) or continuous wall footing shallow foundation system. Information regarding estimated structural loading conditions was provided; and we utilized maximum column loads of

6 to 8 kip or wall loads of 1 to 2 kip per linear foot, and a net allowable bearing capacity requirement of

2,000 psf in our engineering analyses.

1.2 Scope of Services

The primary purpose of this report is to provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for the proposed site development. Our Scope of Services consisted of the following:

• Drilling three (3) soil test borings (borings, B-5,6,7) to depths of approximately 15 feet.

• Including borings B-1,2 from the previously submitted report.

• Performing laboratory testing of selected soil samples obtained from the borings.

• Providing engineering analysis and preparation of this report discussing, in general, project description, our scope, exploration, testing, analysis, and recommendations.

The Boring Location Plan, Boring Logs, and other supporting data are presented in the Appendices to this report. Our Scope of Services did not include a survey of boring locations and elevations, rock coring, quantity estimates, preparation of plans or specifications, or the identification and evaluation of environmental aspects of the project site.

1.3 Field Exploration

AIMRIGHT located the borings in the field by making measurements from known existing site features. No claim is made as to the accuracy of the locations shown on the Boring Location Plan, and they should be considered approximate.

The borings were advanced using an ATV-mounted drill rig equipped with an automatic hammer and 6-inch diameter augers. Representative soil samples were obtained using a standard 2-inch outside diameter split-barrel sampler in general compliance with the Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) method of the

American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) D1586 standard to evaluate the consistency and general engineering properties of the subsurface soils.

The number of blows required to drive the split-barrel sampler three (3) consecutive 6-inch increments is recorded, and the blows of the last two 6-inch increments are added to obtain the SPT N-value in blows per foot (bpf) representing the penetration resistance of the soil. At regular intervals within the borings, split-spoon samples were visually classified based on texture and plasticity.

During the drilling process, all encounters with groundwater, if any, were recorded. Upon completion of drilling, all borings were backfilled per OWRB requirements.

1.4 Laboratory Testing

The samples obtained from the geotechnical exploration were transported to the AIMRIGHT laboratory where representative samples were selected for testing. Testing consisted of Atterberg limits, sieve analysis, and moisture content in general accordance with the ASTM testing procedures.

2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION FINDINGS

2.1 Subsurface

The subsurface conditions illustrated in the table below represent an estimate of the subsurface conditions based on interpretation of the boring data using normally accepted geotechnical engineering judgments.

The transitions between soil strata are usually less distinct than shown on the Boring Logs.

Stratum

General Depth

Interval General

Description of Conditions

Surface 3 to 4 inches organic laden soils (topsoil) sampled as silty sand/sandy silt with organics and root matter

Existing Fill 0.2 to 6 feet very stiff lean clay with varying amounts of clay, silt, sand, and sandstone, concrete fragments

Native Soils 3.5 to 15 feet stiff to hard, lean, lean-to-fat, fat clay with varying amounts of clay, silt, sand, and sandstone fragments

2.2 Groundwater

Groundwater was not encountered during or at the completion of drilling in any of the borings. Water traveling through soil and rock is often unpredictable and may be present at shallow depths. Due to the seasonal changes in groundwater and the unpredictable nature of groundwater paths, groundwater levels will fluctuate. As such, groundwater levels at other times of the year may be different than those described in this report.

Generally, the highest groundwater levels occur in late winter and early spring and the lowest levels in late summer and fall. Therefore, it is necessary during construction to be observant for groundwater seepage in excavations to assess the situation and make necessary changes. Where applicable, the contractor should determine the actual groundwater levels at the time of construction.

4.0 ANALYSIS & CONCLUSIONS

The following recommendations are based on our observations at the site, interpretation and analysis of the field and laboratory data obtained during this exploration, assumed loads, and our experience with previous exploration and testing with similar projects. Soil penetration data have been used to estimate an allowable bearing pressure and associated settlement using established correlations. Subsurface conditions in unexplored locations may vary from those encountered.

If structure location, loadings, or elevations are changed, we request that we be advised so that we may re-evaluate our recommendations. In the event changes are made in the proposed design/construction plans, the recommendations presented in this report shall not be considered valid unless reviewed by

AIMIRIGHT and modified or verified in writing.

Determination of an appropriate foundation system for a given structure is dependent on the proposed structural loads, soil conditions, and construction constraints such as proximity to other structures, etc. The subsurface exploration aids the geotechnical engineer in determining the soil stratum appropriate for structural support. This determination includes considerations regarding both allowable bearing pressure and compressibility of the soil strata. In addition, since the method of construction greatly affects the soils intended for structural support, consideration must be given to the implementation of suitable methods of site preparation, fill compaction, and other aspects of construction.

Our exploration revealed the following potentially adverse subsurface conditions:

• Native soils comprised of clay capable of low to moderate shrink/swell potential was encountered in some of the borings at varying depths. With respect to shrink/swell potential within the planned structure footprint due to the anticipated moisture volumetric changes throughout the seasonal wetting/drying cycles, a potential vertical rise (PVR) of 0.4 to 0.9 inch could be estimated for the near surface soils within the upper 5 feet.

• Existing fill is present in borings B-1,2 at just below the surface and extending down to depths of approximately 3.5 to 6 feet. The existing fill is generally comprised of very stiff lean clay with varying amounts of clay, silt, sand, and sandstone, concrete fragments. The N-values within the existing fill ranged from 13 to 23 bpf and generally, properly compacted fill will exhibit consistent N-values of more than 10 bpf. Construction monitoring/testing documentation of the fill placement was not provided. Due to the limited testing performed and the wide spacing of the borings, the possibility of variable density fill material in other areas of the site cannot be completely ruled out.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

In conclusion, it is our opinion that the site is suitable for the planned development and a concrete shallow foundation system may be utilized to support the structure as notably outlined below.

• Typically, a PVR of 1 inch or less is acceptable for design and this report outlines recommendations as such. However, the structural engineer (and appropriate design team members) should review the PVR and determine if this is acceptable criteria for this project.

• It is our opinion that the existing fill conditions are considered suitable for satisfactory long-term support of the proposed structure. It is noted that whereas our borings may provide a reasonable assessment of the historic fill conditions, placing a structure on uncontrolled fill material represents some risk of unpredictable differential settlements beyond acceptable limits. However, provided the recommendations outlined in this report are followed throughout the design and construction phases of this project, it is our opinion that such risk is significantly minimized. It is imperative that all exposed foundation subgrades should be re-compacted, observed, evaluated, and verified for the design soil bearing pressure by the geotechnical engineer after excavation and prior to concrete placement.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

5.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 Site Preparation and Earthwork

Before proceeding with construction, AIMRIGHT recommends conducting a pre-grading meeting to discuss recommendations as outlined in this report. Where appropriate, existing utilities beneath the construction footprints should be properly abandoned; or, should be removed and backfilled with properly compacted engineered fill as outlined in this report.

Any existing structures, pavements, topsoil/vegetation, moderately to highly plastic clay, wet, soft, or loose soils and any other deleterious non-soil materials should be removed to a minimum distance of 5 and 2 feet beyond the structure footprints.

Upon completion of required excavations, proof-rolling of the subgrade with a 20 to 30-ton loaded truck or other pneumatic-tired vehicle of similar size and weight should then be performed. Proof-rolling should be performed during a time of good weather and not while the site is wet, frozen, or severely desiccated. The proof-rolling observation is an opportunity for the geotechnical engineer to locate inconsistencies intermediate of our boring locations in the existing subgrade.

All unsuitable materials observed during the evaluation and proof-rolling operations should be over-excavated and replaced with compacted fill or stabilized in place. The possible need for, and extent of over-excavation and/or in-place stabilization required can best be determined by the geotechnical engineer at that time.

The upper 8 inches of the existing subgrade in construction areas shall then be scarified, moisture-conditioned and re-compacted to at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the maximum dry density and within

±2 percentage points of the optimum moisture content as determined by a Standard Proctor (ASTM D698).

The moisture content and compaction shall be maintained prior to beginning any fill or aggregate placement and/or construction.

At the time of the investigation, the site soils were generally moist. If dry weather conditions exist prior to and during construction, the near surface soils may need moisture-conditioning to sufficiently enable adequate scarifying and compaction. However, if wet conditions exist at the time of construction, then care shall be taken to assure proper surface water drainage. If these soils do get wet, they must be dried or treated prior to further compaction efforts.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

5.2 Site Drainage

An important aspect to consider during development of this site is surface water control. During the initiation of grading operations, we recommend that the grading contractor take those steps necessary to enhance surface flow and promote rapid clearing of rainfall and runoff water following rain events.

It should be incumbent on the contractor to maintain favorable site drainage during construction to minimize deterioration of otherwise stable subgrades.

Permanent positive drainage should be provided around the perimeter of the structures to minimize moisture infiltration into the foundation and/or subgrade soils. We recommend landscaped areas adjacent to the structures be provided with a fall of at least 6 inches for the first 10 feet outward from the structure areas.

All grades must provide effective drainage away from the structures during and after construction. Water permitted to pond next to the structures can result in unacceptable differential floor slab movements and cracked slabs and/or walls.

After construction and landscaping, AIMRIGHT recommends verifying final grades to document that effective drainage has been achieved. Grades around the structures should also be periodically inspected and adjusted as necessary, as part of the structure’s maintenance program.

Sprinkler mains and spray heads should be located a minimum of 5 feet away from the structure lines.

Low-volume, drip style landscaped irrigation should not be used near the structures.

Roof runoff should be collected in drains or gutters. Roof drains and downspouts should be discharged onto pavements which slope away from the structures or downspouts should be extended a minimum of

10 feet away from the structures.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

5.3 Fill Material

A sample of each material type should be submitted to the geotechnical engineer for evaluation. Frozen material should not be used, and fill should not be placed on a frozen subgrade.

All fill material in structural areas (including utility backfill) should be placed in continuous, horizontal lifts having a maximum pre-compacted thickness of 9 inches. Aggregate base should have a maximum pre-compacted thickness of 6 inches; and fill compacted with hand-held or smaller-sized equipment having a maximum pre-compacted thickness of 4 to 6 inches.

Fill slopes placed over existing slopes should be adequately benched or keyed into the existing slopes so that fill is not placed and/or compacted on a sloping subgrade or vertical wall excavation. The benches will help facilitate compaction, reduce the potential for high differential settlements over short distances, and increase the overall global stability of the constructed fill.

Each lift should be compacted to at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the maximum dry density and within

±2 percentage points of the optimum moisture content as determined by a Standard Proctor (ASTM D698), unless noted otherwise and maintained throughout construction activities.

A minimum of two (2) field tests to determine in-place density and moisture content should be performed per lift for each 2,000 sf within structural footprints.

Engineered fill should consist of approved materials that are free of organic matter and debris, exhibit a maximum plasticity index (PI) of 18, maximum liquid limit (LL) of 40, and contain a maximum rock size of

1.5 inches.

Native soils or existing fill could be used as fill; whereby, upon re-use, the soils meet the requirements for engineered fill as stated in this report. AIMRIGHT recommends conducting additional soil sampling and laboratory testing of any excavated or cut native soils to determine characteristics and stabilization requirements prior to beginning any fill placement.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

5.4 Shallow Foundation Design

The project structural engineer should determine the final foundation sizes based on the actual design loads, building code requirements, and other structural considerations. Structure foundations may be designed utilizing the following parameters.

Maximum Structural Loads Wall 1 to 2 kip/ft

Column 6 to 8 kip

Bearing Material approved engineered fill, existing fill, or native soils

Net Allowable Bearing Pressure1 (FS ≥ 3.0) 2,000 psf

Coefficient of Sliding Friction2, µ 0.25 to 0.35

Total Unit Weight2, γ 105 to 115 pcf

Angle of Friction2, ø 5°

Rankine Passive Earth Pressure Coefficient2, Kp 1.19

Minimum Footing Embedment3 24 inches

Minimum Footing Width Wall 18 inches

Column 30 inches

Estimated Maximum Settlement4 Total ≤ ½ inch

Differential ≤ ½ inch

Earthquake Loads Site Class5 D

1. The recommended net allowable bearing pressure is based on foundations within approved bearing materials and is the pressure more than the minimum surrounding overburden pressure at the footing base elevation.

2. Range of values provided for soil types encountered at the site and/or anticipated import material that are prepared in accordance with this report are illustrated, however, actual parameters are dependent on bearing material placed and/or exposed during construction. Values are provided for guidance and should only be utilized by experienced engineers and designers. Exclude total passive pressure resistance within 2 feet of the adjacent lowest final site elevation.

3. Minimum depth applies to both perimeter footings and foundations in unheated areas. Minimum depth will provide frost protection and reduce the potential for moisture variation below the bearing level.

Interior foundations should extend at least 12 inches below the final adjacent subgrade to provide minimum confinement.

4. The magnitude of the settlements will be highly influenced by the variation in excavation requirements across the structure footprint, the distribution of loads, and the variability of underlying soils.

5. 2018 International Building Code (IBC) Section 16, a weighted average of the soil penetration resistance conditions recorded (limited N-value of 100 bpf) and estimated for the upper 100 feet of the site was calculated.

C l a r e m o r e I n d i a n H o s p i t a l – S i t e w o r k f o r M o d u l a r N o r t h I I

5.5 Shallow Foundation Construction

All exposed foundation subgrades should be re-compacted, observed, evaluated, and verified for the design soil bearing pressure by the geotechnical engineer after excavation and prior to concrete placement. This evaluation should include, as a minimum, Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) testing at the planned bearing elevations at intervals of no less than 35 feet and extending to depths of at least 3 feet below the bearing elevations.

If unsuitable material is encountered during foundation bearing grade testing and inspections (DCP

Testing), foundations should; 1) extend deeper to a more suitable bearing material and bear directly on this material; 2) extend deeper to a more suitable bearing material and backfill with lean concrete to the designed bottom of footing elevation (see Figure 1); 3) extend deeper to a more suitable bearing material and backfilled with engineered fill (see Figure 2). If option 3 is selected, the over-excavation should extend laterally a minimum of 2/3 of the total depth of excavation.

Figure 1 Figure 2

Note: Figures are shown for convenience and excavations shall be conducted with appropriate safety requirements.

Foundation excavations must be maintained in a drained/de-watered condition throughout the foundation construction process and water should not be allowed to pond in any excavation. Excavations for footings should be made in such a way as to provide bearing surfaces that are firm and free of loose, soft, wet, or otherwise disturbed soils. Foundations should be concreted as soon as practical after they are excavated, and concrete should also not be placed on frozen or saturated subgrades.

If the foundation excavations must remain open overnight, or if rainfall becomes imminent while the bearing soils are exposed, it is recommended that a 2 to 4-inch-thick “mud mat” of lean concrete with a minimum compressive strength of 1,500 psi be placed on the bearing soils before placing the reinforcing steel to minimize damage to the bearing surface from weather or construction activities.

6.0 CONSTRUCTION MONITORING

We recommend that all earthwork construction be monitored by an experienced engineering technician of

AIMRIGHT. Monitoring should include site preparation, subgrade earthwork, engineered fill earthwork, structure foundation systems, conventional and/or structural slabs.

Monitoring will allow AIMRIGHT to confirm the soil conditions on site and evaluate the recommendations presented within this report. If at the time of construction, our recommendations are inappropriate for the project, monitoring will allow us to remediate the recommendations at that time to better serve the project.

Monitoring during construction will also allow for the testing of all construction materials for the project. This includes but is not limited to:

✓ subgrade inspection and density testing,

✓ structural area fill placement density testing,

✓ foundation bearing grade observations and testing,

✓ structural and reinforcing steel inspection,

✓ concrete testing, and

✓ asphaltic concrete testing, as applicable.

We recommend that AIMRIGHT be retained to provide these services based upon our current familiarity with the project subsurface conditions, and the provided intent of the geotechnical recommendations pertaining to the proposed development.

7.0 LIMITATIONS

The recommendations provided are based in part on project information provided to us and they only apply to the specific project and site discussed in this report. If our statements or assumptions concerning the location and design of this project contain incorrect information, or if additional information is available, you should convey the correct or additional information to us and retain us to review our recommendations. We can then modify our recommendations if they are inappropriate for the proposed project.

Regardless of the thoroughness of the geotechnical exploration, there is always a possibility that subsurface conditions will be different from those at a specific boring location and that conditions will not be as anticipated by the designers or contractors. In addition, the construction process may itself alter soil conditions. Therefore, experienced geotechnical personnel should observe and document the construction procedures used and the conditions encountered. Unanticipated conditions and inadequate procedures should be reported to the design team along with timely recommendations to solve the problems created.

The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report were derived in accordance with standard geotechnical engineering practices and no other warranty is expressed or implied.
