Services with respect to construction dewatering design, environmental considerations, wetlands investigations, erosion control, pavement designs, stormwater management designs, cost or quantity estimates and construction observation and testing are not included in the scope of services under this phase of our contract.
2. DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The development areas addressed in this geotechnical engineering report are adjacent to the existing Buildings 14 and 14A in the Tobyhanna Army Depot, Tobyhanna, Pennsylvania.
The site is bordered on the west by 1st Street and on the north by Signal Drive. The project vicinity is indicated on the USGS map included as Figure No. 1-1 and on a 2020 aerial map included as Figure No. 1-2 in Enclosure (1).
The development site is relatively level with a surface grade of about El 1992. The site slopes gently from 1st Street to Building 14A from about El 1993 to El 1992. The area is generally paved.
Canopies are proposed for three areas; one to the west of Building 14, one between
Buildings 14 and 14A, and one extending west from Building 14A. The canopies are to be steel-framed.
The information listed above was provided to us by your office, was obtained from the preliminary construction plans provided to us, or was obtained during our own site visits.
3. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
In order to evaluate subsurface conditions in the proposed development areas, three test borings were drilled under our supervision on June 18, 2021. The test borings were drilled to depths of about 14 feet to 19 feet each. The results of test borings, the water level observation data, and test boring location plans are included in Enclosure (4).
3.1 Test Boring Data and Stratification
The test borings indicate the following generalized strata underlie the proposed development areas to the depths investigated:
Stratum Depths Description Stratum SF (structural fill) below surface grades and pavements to depths of about 10 to 14 feet brown silty sand with gravel, occasional cobbles
– FILL; compact (N=12 to 50+)
Stratum A below Stratum SF to depths of 14 to 16.5 feet brown silty SAND with gravel (SM); firm (N=6 to 20)
Stratum B below Stratum A to maximum depths sampled brown silty GRAVEL with sand (GM);
very compact (N=45)
Numbers after the description of the soil strata indicate the minimum and maximum penetration resistances, or N values, recorded in each stratum. The N values indicate the penetration resistance in blows per foot of a standard 2 inch O.D., 1⅜ inch I.D. sampling spoon driven with a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches per ASTM D- 1586. The sampling spoon is driven an initial depth of 6 inches to assure the sampling spoon is in undisturbed material, and the number of blows required to drive the sampling spoon an additional 12 inches is taken as the N value. The sampling operation is generally terminated in a test interval after a total of 50 hammer blows and the depth of penetration is recorded.
The soil symbols indicated in the stratum descriptions and on the boring logs represent the Unified Soil Classification (ASTM D-2488) group symbols based on visual observation of the specimens recovered. Criteria for visual classification of soil samples are given in Enclosure (4) of this report.
3.2 Site History and Geology
The depot site was graded for development in the 1950s. The construction grades of the primary development areas of the depot were in the range of El 1995 to El 2000 throughout the base. The central areas of the base required cuts of in excess of 20 feet and the perimeter areas of the base development required fills to achieve the site grades.
The depot developments have been overlaid onto the pre-development USGS topography map of 1943, included as Figure No. 2-1 in Enclosure (2). The original site grades in the Building 14 area are estimated in the range of El 1985. The fill materials of Stratum SF, as encountered in the test borings, were placed as part of the original site grading of the depot. These fill materials were graded and compacted under controlled conditions of the original site developments. The existing fill may extend deeper in areas of former utility line or other areas of previous excavations.
The sand and gravel of Stratum A and Stratum B are deposits of glacial till of the
Pleistocene geologic epoch. These deposits are moderately over-consolidated.
The underlying bedrock in the project vicinity generally consists of sandstone and shale sequences. This sedimentary rock belongs to the Catskill formation of the Devonian geologic age. The bedrock geology mapping is included as Figure No. 2-2 in Enclosure (2).
3.3 Groundwater Observations
Groundwater observations were performed during the drilling operations at each of the test boring locations. Groundwater was not encountered to the depths investigated.
The results of water readings are shown on the test boring logs.
Water level readings at the boring locations are considered to be a reliable indication of groundwater conditions at the times indicated. Fluctuations in groundwater levels, as well as perched water, may be expected with variations in precipitation, evaporation, adjacent construction activity, and similar factors.
3.4 Laboratory Test Data
Soil laboratory testing was performed on selected jar samples for classification and assessment purposes. Results of testing are included in Enclosure (3) and are summarized below. The natural moisture content was determined for soil samples, per ASTM D-2216, and are shown on the test boring logs in Enclosure (4).

4. FOUNDATION ENGINEERING ANALYSIS
Our foundation engineering analysis is based upon the subsurface information as developed by the field investigation program, results of laboratory testing, and the site and structural data furnished to us.
The construction elements planned are shallow foundations for canopy support elements.
Light to moderate column loading is expected.
4.1 Spread Footings
The test borings generally indicate compact silty sand and gravel materials of Stratum SF at shallow depths. These materials are generally considered suitable for direct support of shallow spread footings. We recommend a maximum allowable net bearing pressure of 3 ksf for individual column footings and other foundation elements founded on compacted structural fill soil subgrades of Stratum SF.
Estimated footing subgrade elevations for the footings are listed for the test borings in the proposed development areas as follows:

Est. Footing Subgrade Elev.
on Stratum SF for
3 ksf Bearing Capacity B-1 El 1991.8 El 1987
B-2 1991.8 1987 B-3 1992.8 1988
The estimated subgrade elevations indicated herein are for design and construction planning. Final footing subgrades should be observed by a representative of the geotechnical engineer during construction. Any materials considered unsuitable for the recommended design bearing pressure should be undercut to sound bearing natural materials and replaced with compacted coarse aggregate structural fill or with PennDOT class C concrete.
4.2 General Spread Footing Considerations
Settlements of spread footing founded on the compacted structural fill subgrades of Stratum SF are expected to be within tolerable limits, with total settlements for individual column load locations not expected to exceed 1 inch. Differential settlements between adjacent support locations are not expected to exceed ½-inch.
For shear considerations, the continuous wall footings should be constructed to minimum widths of 20 inches and individual column footing constructed to minimum widths of 36 inches.
All exterior footings should be placed a minimum of 4.5 feet below adjacent exterior grades for frost protection. Adjacent footings in areas where lowering is required should be stepped in increments not steeper than one horizontal to one vertical (1H:1V).
The site conditions and construction recommendations in this report indicate a seismic design classification of Class C per IBC 2009 table 1613.5.2.
5. CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS
The following recommendations are provided for construction planning and utilization of the engineering recommendations provided in this report.
5.1 Excavation Areas
Excavations for the proposed foundation areas may require cuts of up to 6 feet to reach the construction subgrades. The excavations will generally be in the fill materials of Stratum SF. Sloping of the excavations should be planned no steeper than 1H:1V.
Areas of temporary excavation slopes should be protected against erosion from surface water by directing water away from excavation slopes and covering with plastic sheets.
All excavations should be completed in accordance with applicable OSHA regulations.
We estimate the excavation materials can be excavated with conventional earthwork excavating equipment. Rock excavation methods may be necessary to excavate to the construction grades at specific locations of the site through dense soils.
Mechanical ripping techniques or excavation by use of ram hoes and jackhammers is expected to be adequate for the materials and quantities to be excavated.
Actual top of rock elevations encountered during excavation may vary from the estimates provided at the test locations. Sudden changes in hardness of the material to be excavated should be expected. Variations in the amount of material that may be excavated by conventional and ripping methods should also be anticipated depending on the type and size of equipment used.
5.2 Construction Dewatering
The static groundwater level is expected to be below the excavation depths.
Perched water levels or surface runoff will still accumulate in the excavation areas.
The perched water volumes to be handled may be significant. The contractor should be prepared to maintain dry conditions by use of sump pumps and/or trenching.
5.3 Foundation Construction
Foundation subgrades for the structural elements will generally be in the compact sand of Stratum SF. Foundation subgrades should be observed and tested by a representative of the project geotechnical engineer to verify that the structures are placed on suitable bearing materials as recommended herein.
Care should be taken during the excavation for all footings to minimize disturbance of the bearing subgrades. All loose and disturbed materials should be removed prior to concrete placement. Any areas requiring over-excavation to reach suitable bearing subgrades should be replaced with compacted structural fill or with concrete.
5.4 Structural Backfill
Soil backfill materials shall consist of materials classified SM, SW, SP, GM, GW, or GP per ASTM D-2487. Backfill soils shall be free of any material designated as deleterious. The fill materials should be placed in shallow horizontal layers of maximum 9 inches loose lift thickness and compacted with the necessary type of compaction equipment to attain at least 97 percent of the maximum dry density per ASTM D-698.
Proposed fill soils should be at a moisture content that will facilitate adequate compaction.
The existing fill materials of Stratum SF are generally clean soils of silty sand and gravel. The fill materials of Stratum SF are considered suitable for re-use as structural fill and backfill. Also, PennDOT type OGS, 2RC, or 2A coarse aggregates are considered suitable as backfill in structural areas.
6. OBSERVATION REQUIREMENTS AND STUDY LIMITATIONS
This report was prepared for use by your office and the design professionals to aid in the design of the subject project. This report should be made available to contractors for their information, and to supply them with facts relative to the subsurface investigation. The opinions and conclusions expressed in this report are those of the geotechnical engineer and represent interpretation of the subsurface conditions and the results of analyses and studies which have been conducted for design purposes.
The analyses and recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained from test borings at the specific locations indicated on the test location plan. This report does not reflect any variations which may occur between the test locations. The nature and extent of variations may not become evident until the course of construction. It is therefore essential that on-site observation and testing of foundation installation be performed during the construction period to ascertain if re-evaluation of the recommendations of this report must be made.
Allowances should be established to account for possible additional costs that may be required for construction of foundations, subdrainage, and/or excavations as recommended in this report. Additional costs may be incurred for various reasons including variable existing fill depth, problems with groundwater, variable rock grades, disturbances of subgrades, etc.
