G3IGROUP - <br /> �m.�.., - <br /> spoon is driven 24 inches,and the middle two sets of blow counts are summed and reported as the <br /> "N" value. After the split spoon sampler is removed from the borehole, it is opened and the • <br /> representative soil sample is collected, placed in a labeled jar, and the samples are taken to the <br /> laboratoryfor testing and classification. <br /> Results � <br /> One SPT boring B-1 was pertormed on the subject property. The standard penetration tests boring � <br /> B-1 encountered three layers. The first layer consisted of inedium dense fine sands (SP)from I <br /> ground surface to bls to 4 feet bls was excavated with hand auger. No penetration values were <br /> obtained in layer 1.The second layer was comprised of soft clayey sand (SC)to very stiff clay(CL) � <br /> from 4 feet bls to 23.5 feet bls with the lowest penetration value of 4 and a highest value of 19. � <br /> The third layer consisted of hard limestone at 25 feet bls with penetration values of 100 bpf � <br /> I <br /> FOUNDATION REPAIR RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> I <br /> It is our opinion that the remediation of the subsurFace soils conditions at tfie residence should follow i <br /> a limited foundation helical pinning program that includes: _ i <br /> � <br /> • The installation of 6 helical piers with a 10"/12"/14"triple helix lead section configuration to an <br /> estimated average depth of(20-25)feet bls to stabilize the foundation (See Attached Figure). <br /> The exact location of the helical piers will be determined in the field. <br /> • The helical should extend at a maximum torque depth range of 20 feet BGS with a maximum <br /> torque of 3943 ft-Ibs to generate an ultimate compression capacityof 26.7 kips and an <br /> ultimate tension capacity of 23.5 kips. <br /> • In addition we recommend the injection of 500 pounds polyurethane at 4 foot centers to depth , <br /> of 3 feet along 40 linear feet of portions of the structure that have e�erienced movement � <br /> (See Attached Figure) � <br /> Pier Design Analysis � <br /> The maximum loadings associated with the structure are e�ected to be as follows: <br /> Wall Load: 1%z kips/linearft <br /> Pier Load: 10 kips <br /> Floor Load: 80 Ibs/sq ft <br /> The e�asting structure appears to be supported with conventional shallow foundations. The structure , <br /> has experienced diiferential movement. Based upon our evaluation and analyses,the soils within the ; <br /> zone of ir�fluence may be experiencing excessive movement due to a combination of volumetric ! <br /> � <br />� i <br />' Florida Office: Phone: 727.376.7833 Tennessee Office: <br /> i 2410 Success Drive, Suite 7 Fax: 727-376-2758 45 Oak Valley Drive ' <br /> Odessa, FL 33556 E�nail: info(a),geo3�roup.com Spring Hill,TN 37174 <br /> Web: www.�eo3�roup.com ' <br /> i <br />
