We understand the <br />City of Little Canada requested you to construct a paved parking <br />area behind your building. On August 11, 1999, you requested our <br />services to put down two soil borings in the proposed parking area <br />and provide pavement, recommendations. <br />QQNC.1.115XQNS „M .REQOMMENPAIIQK$$ <br />Based on the soil borings and our observations of the existing <br />parking area, we have the following conclusions: <br />1. The upper 3' of the suhgrnde is suitable to support. 1 ight. <br />vehicle loadings. The surface is covered with several inches <br />of recycled asphalt. We encountered well - consolidated sand <br />with gravel and cemented sand with gravel to at least 3' below <br />surface grade. <br />2. Pavement placed over the fill will be subjected to distress <br />from frost heaving due to the high water table and <br />differential settlement of the poorly consolidated mineral <br />fill and organic fill below the upper 3' of the subgrade. <br />3. if the area requires additional pavement we recommend the <br />installation of a flexible bituminous pavement over the <br />existing grade. For light vehicle parking we recommend <br />placing a 2” thick layer of bituminous pavement. We <br />anticipate the pavement will become distressed and maintenance <br />repairs should be budgeted. <br />FTELD_ EXP1,njtATTQN <br />On August 17, 1999, we put down two standard penetration borings to <br />11 1/2' below grade in the proposed parking area. A sketch showing <br />the boring locations is attached. Logs of the soil borings are <br />also attached. <br />Page 20 <br />
