The purpose of the work is to provide aOnuvmbXe bearing pressures such that additional foundation
elements may be designed to accommodate the proposed expansion of Fire Station 41. The proposed
foundation elements include the use of helical piers ormicropiley. We also understand there is some
settlement of two small additions and a co�umn that you would like us to look at. Lastly,weunderstand
you vvom|d like some recommendations for how to dose off an existing tunnel connecting the old City
Hall to the Fire Station,

the borings, collect soil samples for laboratory analysis, and evaluate the existing soil conditions.
Prior to any on-site explorations, a utility locate request will be called (for the marking of public
utility lines). Following our investigation, the bmnc hole will be &ackfiUed with mm1k/e material
and capped with cold mix asphalt.
Z. Selected samples will be analyzed im the laboratory Lm verify soil
classification and natural moisture content,
3. Based on our field and laboratory data, we will analyze the,

technical information to the Owner, Architect, 3Trmc1mrm| Engineer, and Contractor for use
during the planning, design, and construction of the proposed expansion. The report will
summarize our recom mend ations with respect to the design of additional foundation elements,
aOommh|c bearing capacities, and closing of the tunnel, We will also provide our thoughts and
recommendations with respect to the settlement of the two small additions and the existing
