April 3, 2017 4 Proposal No.: SWP-17-058 <br />tests selected and the frequency of testing may be modified and will be based on the subsurface <br />conditions actually encountered. <br />Task 5 — Analysis and Report <br />Earth Systems will analyze the field data obtained, perform preliminary engineering analyses, and <br />provide recommended design parameters for earthwork and foundations for the structure. The <br />results of our field exploration and engineering analysis will be summarized in a report prepared <br />under the supervision of a Registered Geotechnical Engineer and Certified Engineering Geologist <br />as required by the 2016 CBC. Based upon the reporting requirements of CGS Note 48, we <br />anticipate that our report will include the following items: <br />A description of the proposed project including a site plan showing the approximate <br />boring and CPT locations. <br />A description of the surface and subsurface site conditions including groundwater <br />conditions, as encountered in our field exploration, and groundwater management during <br />construction (if applicable). <br />A description of the site geologic setting and possible associated geology-related hazards, <br />including a liquefaction, subsidence, and seismic settlement analysis. <br />A site specific geologic map and geologic cross section. <br />A discussion of regional geology and site seismicity, and a regional geology map. <br />A description of local and regional active faults, their distances from the site, their <br />potential for future earthquakes, and a regional fault map. <br />A discussion of other geologic hazards such as ground shaking, landslides, flooding, and <br />tsunamis. <br />A seismic analysis including recommendations for geotechnical seismic design coefficients <br />in accordance with the 2016 CBC. <br />A discussion of site conditions, including the geotechnical suitability of the site for the <br />general type of construction proposed. <br />Recommendations for site preparation, earthwork, and fill compaction specifications, <br />including remedial grading. <br />Discussion of anticipated excavation conditions. <br />Recommendations for imported fill (if required) for use in compacted fills. <br />Recommendations for foundation design including parameters for shallow foundations, <br />subgrade preparation, and caisson foundations. <br />Anticipated total and differential settlements for the recommended foundation system. <br />Preliminary recommendations for the mitigation of liquefaction (if applicable) <br />Recommendations for lateral load resistance for below grade structures, basements, and <br />retaining walls including drainage requirements and seismic earth pressures. <br />Recommendations for underground utility trench backfill and import soils. <br />Recommendations for stability of temporary trench excavations. <br />Recommendations for slabs-on-grade, including recommendations for subgrade <br />preparation and for reducing the potential for moisture transmission through interior <br />slabs. <br />Recommendations to address collapsible or expansive soils (if applicable). <br />EARTH SYSTEMS SOUTHWEST
