1.0 INTRODUCTION
Professional Service Industries, Inc. (PSI) has conducted a geotechnical engineering
evaluation for the proposed Tennyson Apartments in Denver, Colorado. The purpose of
our study was to evaluate the subsurface conditions at the subject site and to provide
geotechnical recommendations for site preparation and input to foundation design for the
proposed apartment complex. Our services on this project were performed in general
accordance with PSI Proposal Number 147245, dated March 17, 2015 and authorized
by Mr. James Davis with RPDG Tennyson Street, LLC on March 27, 2015.
The report, which follows, presents a brief review of PSIs understanding of the project, a
discussion of the site and subsurface conditions, and geotechnical conclusions and
recommendations.
project site. The geology section is based upon the Geological Map of the Greater
Denver Area, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado by Donald E. Trimble and Michael
N. Machette (1979) and information relating to subsurface conditions within the property
gathered from our current field study.
3. 2 Subsurface Conditions
As part of PSIs evaluation of this site, 5 exploratory borings were drilled.
Borings were drilled within the footprint of the proposed buildings, around the existing
structures, to depths of approximately 30 feet each below the existing ground surface.
Boring Location Maps are provided as Figures 2a and 2b.
The borings were advanced using a CME-55 truck-mounted drill rig equipped with 4-inch
outside-diameter, solid-stem, continuous-flight augers. Soil samples were recovered at
selected depths during drilling with the truck-mounted drill rig using a Modified California
Barrel Sampler (with an inside diameter of 2 inches and an outside diameter of 2.4
inches) driven by a 140-pound hammer free-falling 30 inches. The blow counts required
to drive the sampler for three consecutive 6-inch increments were recorded. The total
number of blows required to drive the sampler for the last 12 inches of penetration is
designated as the penetration resistance (N-value, blows per foot) which provides an
indication of the consistency of cohesive soils and the relative density of granular
materials. While the procedure is similar to that employed in the Standard Penetration
Test (ASTM D1586), the penetration resistance obtained using the California barrel
sampler is generally higher than that obtained using the standard split-spoon sampler.
All blow counts illustrated in this report are field values.
An engineer from our office observed the drilling of our borings and logs were prepared
of the encountered conditions. Individual logs of the borings are presented on Figures 3
through 7. It should be noted that the subsurface conditions presented on the boring
logs are representative of the conditions at the specific locations drilled. Variations may
occur and should be expected across the site. The stratification represents the
approximate boundary between subsurface materials and the transitions may be gradual
and indistinct. Water level information obtained during our field operations is also shown
on the boring logs.
3.2.1 Subsurface Profile
Subsurface soils encountered at the boring locations generally consists of approximately
2 inches of asphalt overlying 6 to 9 feet of dark brown, moist, loose to medium dense,
clayey sand (SC).
Sandstone bedrock was encountered underlying the native
overburdened soils at depths ranging from 6 to 9 feet below surface grade. The
sandstone bedrock is gray to brown, moist to saturated and dense to very dense. A
summary of depths to bedrock at the boring locations is presented in Table 1.

The test results indicated swell percentages ranging from 0.0 to 0.9 percent, when
tested under 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 2500 pounds per square foot (psf) of surcharge
pressures. PSI classifies the onsite soils as having a low swell potential. Swell
mitigation is not required for this site, however, if excessive drying and rewetting of these
soils is allowed to occur, the risk of swell will increase. Therefore, proper drainage and
good maintenance should be followed.
3.2.4 Laboratory Testing
The soil samples obtained during the field exploration were transported to the laboratory
and selected soil samples were tested in the laboratory to determine material properties
for our evaluation. Laboratory testing was accomplished in general accordance with
ASTM and other applicable procedures. Laboratory testing was performed on selected
samples to evaluate the classification and other engineering characteristics of the
subsurface materials. Laboratory test data along with detailed descriptions of the soils
can be found on the logs of borings and in Appendix A. The samples that were not
altered by laboratory testing will be retained for 30 days from the date of this report and
then will be discarded without further notice.

Imported fill material proposed for use on this site that does not meet these criteria
should be submitted to the project geotechnical engineer for evaluation and approval.
The geotechnical engineer should evaluate the proposed import fill prior to purchase and
delivery. Fine-grained soils used for fill require close moisture content control and
careful placement by the contractor to achieve the recommended degree of compaction
and to control swell potential and settlement.
Weather conditions in the site area are typically dry in the summer and early fall. While
grading can be inhibited for short periods during and following times of precipitation,
grading can generally be conducted year round. The major factor that must be
considered during the winter months is ground freezing. During extended periods of
sub-freezing weather, it can be difficult to properly moisture condition and compact soils.
Grading must be conducted during the warmer parts of the day in freezing weather.

The allowable bearing capacities provided in the table above are based on loading of 4
kips per linear foot for continuous footings, and column loads not to exceed 500 kips, a
safety factor of 3, and that the existing grade is at or near the proposed final subgrade
elevation. The estimated settlements displayed in the above tables were based upon the
corresponding allowable soil bearing capacities.
Individual and continuous footings supporting bearing walls should incorporate a
minimum lateral dimension of 18 inches. Exterior footings should bear at a minimum of
36 inches below final grade for frost protection. Interior footings should bear at a
minimum of 18 inches below grade.
The uplift capacity of shallow foundations should be limited to the weight of the
foundation concrete plus the weight of the soil immediately above the footing. A
concrete unit weight of 145 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) and a soil unit weight of 125 pcf
should be used for design purposes.
Lateral loads applied to the foundations will be resisted by a combination of passive
pressure against the sides and friction along the base. For design purposes, PSI
recommends a passive pressure of 330 pcf to a depth of 15 feet along with a coefficient
of friction of 0.39 is recommended.
The foundation excavations should be observed by a representative of PSI prior to
reinforcing steel or concrete placement to assess that the foundation bearing materials
are capable of supporting the design loads and are consistent with the materials
discussed in this report. Based on the data obtained from the borings and our
understanding of required excavation depths, the in-situ soils may be excavated with
moderate effort at this site.
Soft or loose zones, if encountered at the bottom of the footing, should be removed and
replaced with properly compacted fill as directed by the geotechnical engineer.
After the foundation bearing materials have been approved, steel reinforcement and
concrete should be placed as quickly as possible to avoid exposure of the footing
bottoms to wetting and drying. Surface run-off water should be drained away from the
excavations and not be allowed to pond. If possible, the foundation concrete should be
placed during the same day the excavation is made. If it is required that the excavation
be left open for more than one day, they should be protected to reduce evaporation or
entry of moisture.
Based on the building foundation elevations and anticipated lower level for the elevator
pit, the foundation may encounter groundwater. It is PSIs opinion that a foundation or
underdrain system be installed. PSI also recommend that the surface infiltration be
minimized to reduce the potential for surface water to saturate the soils below the
foundations.
The ground surface, landscaping and flatwork, should be sloped to drain away from the
building. Roof down spouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of the
building or into the sewer collection system.
For the elevator pit, PSI recommends that a drainage system be provided at this
location. A drain system may be used, or the elevator pit can be waterproofed and sump
pit installed.

6.5 Slabs-on-Grade
A slab-on-grade interior floor slab system may be utilized for the proposed structure
provided that the slab bears on a free draining granular mat on top of competent
bedrock.
If the slab is placed on competent imported soils, PSI recommends a subgrade support
modulus (k-value) of 150 pci (based on a 1 foot square plate load test) be used for slab
design. The value should be adjusted for larger areas using the following expression for
cohesive and cohesionless soil:
Modulus of Subgrade Reaction,
where:
k
) for cohesive soil; and,
B
B 1 2
ks = k (
) for cohesionless soil.
2B
ks = (
Where concrete slabs will be covered with tile or other moisture-sensitive covering, we
recommend the use of a vapor retarder beneath the slabs-on-grade to reduce vapor
transmission through the slab. PSI recommends that a minimum four-inch-thick freedraining granular mat be placed beneath the floor slab to enhance drainage. The soil
surface shall be graded to drain away from the building without low spots that can trap
water prior to placing the granular drainage layer. Polyethylene sheeting should be placed
to act as a vapor retarder where the floor will be in contact with moisture sensitive
equipment or product such as tile, wood, carpet, etc., as directed by the design engineer.
The floor slabs should have an adequate number of joints to reduce cracking resulting from
differential movement and shrinkage.
The precautions listed below are considered good construction practice. Due to the
presence of moderately expansive soils encountered on-site, these recommendations
should be followed to prevent differential movements due to moisture content variation
and to improve slab performance.
Slabs should be separated from exterior walls, column posts, interior bearing
members and utility lines to allow independent vertical movement of the slab. If
project structural and architectural details require the slab on grade to be
structurally tied to the exterior wall/foundation system, then control joints should
be placed in the slab within approximately 3 feet of the wall. The owner must
understand and accept the risk of cracking at or near the control joints if the slab
on grade is tied to the foundation system.
Exterior slabs should be isolated from the building. These slabs should be reinforced to
function as independent units. Movement of these slabs should not be transmitted to the
building foundation or superstructure.
7.0 LIMITATIONS
The recommendations submitted are based on the available subsurface information
obtained by PSI and design details furnished by RPDG. If there are revisions to the plans
for this project or if deviations from the subsurface conditions noted in this report are
encountered during construction, PSI should be notified immediately to determine if
changes in the foundation recommendations are required. If PSI is not retained to perform
these functions, PSI will not be responsible for the impact of those conditions on the
project.
The geotechnical engineer warrants that the findings, recommendations, specifications, or
professional advice contained herein have been made in accordance with generally
accepted professional geotechnical engineering practices in the local area. No other
warranties are implied or expressed.
After the plans and specifications are more complete, the geotechnical engineer should be
retained and provided the opportunity to review the final design plans and specifications to
check that our engineering recommendations have been properly incorporated into the
design documents. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of RPDG and their
consultants for the specific application to the Tennyson Apartments located at 3860 and
3868 Tennyson Street in Denver, Colorado.

INSTALLATION
Use raceway fittings that are of types compatible with the associated raceway and suitable for
the use and location. For intermediate steel conduit, use threaded rigid steel conduit fittings
except as otherwise indicated.
J.
Run concealed raceways with a minimum of bends in the shortest practical distance considering
the type of building construction and obstructions except as otherwise indicated. This does not
apply to conduits in crawl spaces.
K. Raceways embedded in slabs: Install in middle third of the slab thickness where practical and
leave at least one-inch (1) concrete cover. Tie raceways to reinforcing rods or otherwise secure
them to prevent sagging or shifting during concrete placement. Space raceways laterally to
prevent voids in the concrete. Run conduit larger than one-inch (1) trade size, parallel with or at
right angles to the main reinforcement where, at right angles to the reinforcement, the conduit
shall be close to one of the supports of the slab. Where non-metallic conduit or tubing is used,
raceways must be converted to Schedule 80 or rigid steel conduit or tubing IMC before rising
above floor.
26 0533 - 4
Design Development
October 02, 2015
L.
Install exposed raceways parallel and perpendicular to nearby surfaces or structural members
and follow the surface contours as much as practical.
M. Run exposed, parallel or banked raceways together. Make bends in parallel or banked runs from
the same centerline so that the bends are parallel. Factory elbows may be used in banked runs
only where they can be installed parallel. This requires that there be a change in the plane of the
run such as from wall to ceiling and that the raceways be of the same size. In other cases,
provide field bends for parallel raceways.
N. Join raceways with fittings designed and approved for the purpose and make joints tight. Where
joints cannot be made tight, use bonding jumpers to provide electrical continuity of the raceway
system. Make raceway terminations tight. Where terminations are subject to vibration, use
bonding bushings or wedges to assure electrical continuity. Where subject to vibration or
dampness, use insulating bushings to protect conductors.
O. Tighten set screws of threadless fittings with suitable tool.
P. Terminations: Where raceways are terminated with locknuts and bushings, align the raceway to
enter squarely and install the locknuts with dished part against the box. Where terminations
cannot be made secure with one locknut, use two locknuts, one inside and one outside the box.
Q. Where terminating in threaded hubs, screw the raceway or fitting tight into the hub so the end
bears against the wire protection shoulder. Where chase nipples are used, align the raceway so
the coupling is square to the box and tighten the chase nipples so no threads are exposed.
R. Install pull wires in empty raceways. Use No. 14 AWG zinc-coated steel or monofilament plastic
line having not less than 200 lb. tensile strength. Leave not less than twelve inches (12) of slack
at each end of the pull wire.
S. Telephone and Signal System Raceways 2 Trade Size and Smaller: In addition to the above
requirements, install raceways 2 and smaller trade size in maximum lengths at 150 and with a
maximum of two 90 bonds or equivalent.
T. Install raceway-sealing fittings in accordance with the Manufacturers written instructions. Locate
fittings at suitable, approved, accessible locations and fill them with UL-listed sealing compound.
For concealed raceways, install each fitting in a flush steel box with a blank cover plate having a
finish similar to that of adjacent plates or surfaces. Install raceway-sealing fittings at the following
points and elsewhere as indicated:
1.
2.
Where conduits pass from warm locations to cold locations, such as the boundaries of
refrigerated spaces and air-conditioned spaces.
3.
U. Stub-up Connections: Extend conduits through concrete floor for connection to free-standing
equipment with an adjustable top or coupling threaded inside for plugs and set flush with the
finished floor. Extend conductors to equipment with rigid steel conduit; flexible metal conduit may
be used six inches (6) above the floor. Where equipment connections are not made under this
Contract, install screwdriver-operated threaded flush plugs flush with floor.
V. Flexible Connections: Use short length (maximum of 6) of flexible conduit for recessed and
semi-recessed light fixtures for equipment subject to vibration, noise transmission or movement
and for all motors.
26 0533 - 5
Design Development
October 02, 2015
W. Install nonferrous conduit or tubing for circuits operating above 60 Hz. Where aluminum raceway
is installed for such circuits and it passes through concrete, install in a non-metallic sleeve.
X. Do not install aluminum conduit embedded in or in contact with concrete.
Y. PVC externally coated rigid steel conduit: Use only fittings approved for use with that material.
Patch all nicks and scrapes in PVC coating after installing conduit.
Z. Surface Metal Raceway: Install a separate green ground conductor in raceway from the junction
box supplying the raceway to receptacle or fixture ground terminals.
AA.
Select each surface metal raceway outlet box to which a lighting fixture is attached to be of
sufficient diameter to provide a seat for the fixture.
AB.
Where a surface metal raceway is used to supply a fluorescent lighting fixture having central
stem suspension with a back plate and a canopy, with or without extension ring, the back plate
and canopy will serve as the outlet box and no separate outlet box need be provided.
AC.
Provide surface metal raceway outlet box, in addition to the back plate and canopy, at the feed-in
location of each fluorescent lighting fixture having end stem suspension.
AD.
Where a surface metal raceway extension is made from an existing outlet box on which a lighting
fixture is installed, provide a back plate slightly smaller than the fixture canopy, and no additional
surface-mounted outlet box need be installed.
