RE. Baxter Meadows Soils Report
PIease find attached the soils report for Baxter Meadows. The report was done by SK
Geotechnicai and Peccia Engineering, and included 37 test bores. The report concludes that there are
three categories of soil types anticipated at the footing level (4' deep) — undisturbed gravel,
undisturbed clay, and soft alluvial clays, which should be subexcavated and backfilled. The report
also discusses the presence of groundwater. The entire report including all bore logs is included.

Dear Mr. Swanson;

Re, Preliminary Geotechnical Evaluation,Proposed Buildings,Baxter Meadows Subdivision,
Bozeman,Montana
The preliminary geotechnical evaluation for the buildings within the Baxter Meadows Subdivision has
been completed, :The purpose of the preliminary;geotechnical evaluation was to evaluate subsurface soil
and groundwater conditions related to general design and construction of proposed buildings. The work
was performed in general accordance with our Proposal P-1083b to you dated Afgust 24, 2001, which
you authorized on September 6, 2001.
Field Procedures
A total of 37 soil borings have been performed on the three one-quarter sections of the Baxter Meadows
Subdivision. The locations of these borings are shown on the attached sketch. Penetration test borings
are designated by the prefix "ST." The planned locations of borings ST-13, ST-16, ST-22, ST-26, ST-27,
ST-28, ST-34 and ST-36 were not accessible to our truck-mounted drill rig or underground utilities were
present. We therefore offset the locations from the staked locations. The locations we drilled were
designated with a "A"suffix, i.e., ST-13A.
Borings ST-I through ST-3 were performed on November 9 and 10,2001, as part of a preliminary
geotechnical evaluation for a water treatment system within the subdivision. Borings ST-4 through ST-37
were performed between September 18 and 25,2001. The borings were performed with a Mobile B-61
truck-mounted core and auger drill. Sampling for the borings was conducted in accordance with
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)D 1586, "Penetration Test and Split-Barrel
Sampling of Soils." A manual 140-pound hammer was used to perform the penetration tests. The blows
for the last foot of penetration were recorded on the logs and are an index of soil strength characteristics.
Groundwater was encountered in most of the borings, and the results are indicated on the attached logs.
The period of observation was relatively short, and several days may be needed for groundwater to
stabilize in a boring performed in clay soils, Numerous monitoring wells have already been installed on
the site by others. Data related to groundwater fluctuations at these monitoring wells can be obtained
from Robert Peccia & Associates,

Results
Logs. Log of Boring sheets indicating the depths and identifications of the various soil strata, the
penetration resistances and groundwater level information are attached. It should be noted the depths
shown as boundaries between the strata are only approximate. The actual changes may be transitions, and
the depths of changes vary between borings.
Site Conditions. Bozeman and Baxter Meadows Subdivision are situated in alluvial fan deposits
emanating from the mountains to the south. Alluvial fan deposits are created by streams originating from
the mountains and meandering northward into the Bozeman Valley. The streams create channels and
alluvial gravel deposits. The streams create dips and swales along their courses, which eventually filled
in with clays. This process has created quite variable thicknesses of the clay overburden over relatively
short distances.
Soils. The general soil profile encountered at the borings was I to 4 feet of organic clay topsoil underlain
by alluvial clays over alluvial gravels. Groundwater was encountered in most of the borings at depths
ranging from about 2 to 9 feet. The topsoil thickness;depth to gravel and groundwater, as well as the
corresponding elevations are summarized in Table I below. '

Penetration tests in the alluvial clays were directly related to their relative moisture content. Lower
penetration resistances were encountered in the wet clays, generally ranging from weight-of-hammer to
about 4 blows per foot(BPF). These values indicated the wet clays were very soft to rather soft. On the
other hand, rather dry to moist alluvial clays were encountered in many of the borings. In these borings,
the penetration resistances were generally higher and ranged from about 5 to 12 BPF, indicating they
were rather soft to rather stiff.
Penetration resistances in the underlying alluvial gravels typically ranged from 25 BPF to 50 blows for 3
inches of penetration. These values indicated the underlying gravels were medium dense to very dense,
but were mostly very dense.
As can be seen in Table 1, groundwater was encountered at depths ranging from about 2 to 9 feet,
although groundwater was not encountered in four of the borings. The groundwater table was generally
at or slightly below the top of the alluvial gravels. In some of the borings, however, groundwater was
present in the organic and/or alluvial clays above the gravel.
Proposed Construction
Building design and layout within various portions of the Baxter Meadows Subdivision is in preliminary
stages. At this time, it is anticipated the buildings will likely be one to two stories with earth-supported
concrete floors at or slightly above existing grades. Most of the buildings will be residential or
condominium units, although Some commercial buildings, such as a veterinarian clinic, are also planned.
The buildings will likely be constructed of wood framing. Some of the buildings may have crawl-space
floor systems.
Robert Peccia&Associates, Inc.
Project 005256B October 19,2001
Page 4
The actual building layouts, foundation configurations and building loads are not known at this time. For
the purpose of this preliminary report, we anticipate most of the planned buildings will be lightly-loaded
structures.
For lightly-loaded structures, we have assumed wall loads will be less than 2 laps per linear foot,column
loads will be less than 30 laps, distributed floor loads will be Iess than 250 pounds per square foot(psi),
and concentrated floor loads will be less than 1,000 pounds. Moderate- to heavy-loaded structures will
have loads that exceed these values.
Preliminary Analysis and Recommendations
Foundations. Based on the results of the soil borings, it is our opinion the buildings can be supported on
shallow-spread footings. As previously indicated, some of the borings encountered rather soft to rather
stiff alluvial clays that can be used for direct support of proposed spread footings. On the other hand,
some of the borings encountered wet and soft aIIuvial clays. These wet, soft alluvial clays are extremely
moisture sensitive, and will become more disturbed during excavation. They will be too soft;to provide a
suitable platform for footing construction and some additional subgrade preparation is needed.
Table 2 below summarizes the anticipated footing conditions encountered at each of the borings
performed throughout the site. We assumed the footings will bear at a depth of about 4 feet below
existing grade, indicating the floor would likely match existing grades. On so gr
me sites, however, ades
beneath the floor maybe raised and the footings will actually be shallower than,indicated in the table.

As can be seen in the table above, we anticipate three footing conditions.will be encountered for lightly-
loaded buildings constructed over the site. These footing conditions are described below.
Condition 1. Undisturbed Gravels. Ten of the 37 borings encountered alluvial gravels at depths of
4 feet or less. It is our opinion the alluvial gravels are suitable for direct support of proposed footings.
On some of these sites, however, groundwater was encountered above the gravel and will be
encountered in frost-depth footings trenches. Dewatering will therefore likely be required to lower
the groundwater level during construction to allow for footing and foundation wall construction (see
Borings ST-1 and ST-2).
Condition 2. Undisturbed Clays. Nine of the 37 borings encountered rather soft to rather stiff
alluvial clays that were considered a suitable subgrade for direct support of footings. Extreme care
needs to be taken during construction in these areas to avoid disturbing the clay subgrade. Footing
trenches should be excavated with a tracked backhoe working from the surface with a smooth-bladed
bucket. Footings can then be supported directly on the undisturbed native clays. Similar to above,
groundwater will likely be encountered during footing excavation on some of these sites(see Borings
ST--3 and ST-14). If encountered,dewatering will be needed during construction.
Condition 3. Subexcavate--Backfill. Eighteen of the 37 borings encountered wet, soft alluvial
clays, which are unsuitable for footing support. On most of these sites, groundwater was also
encountered in the alluvial clays, which contributed to their low strengths. It is our opinion
subexcavation and backfilling with imported sandy gravel will be needed to improve the footing
subgrade. Dewatering will be needed on most of these sites.

Subexcavate—Backfill, The borings indicated development over about one-half of the proposed
subdivision will require subgrade improvement. Subexcavating and backflling on these sites (Condition
3)will provide a suitable platform during construction and reduce settlement. We recommend
subexcavating the alluvial clays from beneath the proposed footings down to the alluvial gravels, or to a
depth of 2 feet, whichever is less. When the subexcavations beneath footings encounter native
gravels,it
is our opinion imported sandy gravel backfill can be placed directly on the native gravels up to bottom-of-
footing Ievel. Some of the borings, however, indicated the soft alluvial clays extended 3 feet or more
below proposed bottom-of-footing level. On these sites, we recommend subexcavating 2 feet beneath
proposed footings, and then placing a medium survivability woven geotextile fabric on the resulting
subgrade and 2 feet up the sides prior to placing backfill.
Subexcavations beneath proposed footings should extend I foot(horizontal)beyond the outside footing
edges. We recommend using 3-inch minus sandy gravel as backfill beneath the proposed footings, which
is readily available from several gravel suppliers in the Bozeman area. Backfill beneath proposed
footings should be placed in lifts not exceeding 12 inches uncompacted thickness,and compacted to a
minimum of 95 percent of its maximum dry density determined in accordance with ASTM Method of
Test D 698 (standard Proctor).
Bearing Pressure. The borings indicate spread footings bearing on the native gravels can be designed
for net allowable bearing pressures ranging from 3,000 to 5,000 psf. Footings bearing on the alluvial
clays or compacted backfill placed over the alluvial clays can be designed for a bearing pressure of 1,500
psf. We anticipate total and differential settlement of lightly-loaded structures bearing on spread footings
as described above will not exceed 3/4 inch. Wood-frame buildings can generally tolerate movements of
his magnitude.
Floor Slabs. It is our opinion earth-supported floor slabs can be supported directly on the alluvial clays
or compacted backfill placed over the alluvial clays after the organic clay topsoil has been removed. A
few of the borings, however, indicated groundwater levels in the organic clays above the alluvial clays
(see Borings ST-6 and ST-I3A). At these locations, dewatering will likely be necessary during removal
of the organic clay topsoil and placement of fill to raise grades beneath the floor slab. Similar to the
footings, we recommend a medium survivability woven geotextile fabric be placed directly on the clay
subgrade to assist in stabilization of the underlying soft soils. We then recommend using 3-inch sandy
gravel as fill to raise grades beneath the floor slabs. A leveling course of 6 inches of 3/4-inch minus
crushed gravel road base could be placed on the sandy gravel fill for the concrete.
Placement of significant fills on the alluvial clays will result in clay consolidation and excessive floor
settlement. It is our opinion up to 3 feet of fill can be placed beneath proposed floor slabs without
excessive settlement.
If more than 3 feet of fill is needed, we recommend subexcavating the alluvial clays from,beneath floor
slabs(and foundations) down to the alluvial gravels, then replacing these soils with compacted backfill up
to the desired grades. Placing gravel fill over the native gravels will provide a more suitable platform
during construction and significantly reduce the amount of total and differential settlement.
Additional Geotechnical Evaluation
The borings for the preliminary geotechnical evaluation were generally spaced 800 to 1,200 feet apart
across the three one-quarter sections. Soil and groundwater conditions will change between the borings.
Robert Peccia&Associates, Inc. October 19,2001
Project 005256B Page 7
We therefore recommend performing additional geotechnical evaluation once building Iocations and
loads are better known. Additional geotechnical evaluation will include soil borings performed 100 to
200 feet apart to more accurately evaluate subsurface soil and groundwater conditions. Based on the
conditions encountered, more detailed recommendations related to foundation and floor subgrade
preparation can be provided.
General
The preliminary analysis and recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained
from our soil borings performed at the locations indicated on the attached sketch. Groundwater
observations in the borings were made at the times and under the conditions stated on the boring Iogs.
These data were interpreted in the text of this preliminary report. The period of observation was
relatively short, and fluctuations in the groundwater level may occur.
We have appreciated the opportunity to provide these services. If you have any questions,please contact
