GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PROPOSED FABRIC COVERED STRUCTURE A.J. TYLER OPERATIONS CENTRE 663 BATHURST STREET LONDON, ONTARIO

Dear Mr. Huitema:

This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation carried out for the design of the above-noted

project. The site is located at 663 Bathurst Street in London, Ontario as shown on the Key Plan, Figure 1.

The purpose of the investigation was to assess the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions at the site and to

provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for the design of the foundations for the proposed fabric

covered structure. Based on the information provided, the proposed structure is to be 65 feet (19.8 metres) by

100 feet (30.5 metres) in plan and is to be anchored to a ‘DNM Lock Block Wall Foundation’ system, which is to

be founded on soils with a minimum bearing capacity of 3000 pounds per square foot (144 kilopascals).

Authorization to proceed with the work was provided by Mr. Billy Sevier of The Corporation of the City of London

(City) in an e-mail on June 5, 2013.

Important information on the limitations of this report is attached.

1.0 PROCEDURE

The field work for the investigation was carried out on June 28, 2013 during which time five boreholes were

drilled at the approximate locations shown on the Location Plan, Figure 1. The boreholes were drilled using a

truck mounted power auger supplied and operated by a specialist drilling contractor. All boreholes (101 to 105)

were drilled in the area of the proposed fabric covered structure. The subsurface conditions are provided on the

attached Record of Borehole sheets.


July 2013 Report No. 13-1132-0081-R01 2

Standard penetration testing and sampling was carried out in all of the boreholes at suitable intervals of depth

using 35 millimetre inside diameter split spoon sampling equipment. All of the samples obtained during the

investigation were brought to our laboratory in London, Ontario for further examination and testing. The results

of the field and laboratory testing are shown on the Record of Borehole sheets and on Figure 2.

All of the boreholes remained dry during drilling. Upon completion of drilling and sampling, the boreholes were

backfilled in accordance with Ontario Regulation (O. Reg.) 903, as amended.

A member of our engineering staff designated the borehole locations in the field, monitored the drilling, logged

the boreholes and cared for the samples obtained. Underground utility locates were provided by the City.

The ground surface elevations at the borehole locations have been referenced to the south-west corner of the

garage floor slab in the north-east portion of the site. The elevation of this point is understood to be 250.60

metres referenced to geodetic datum.

2.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

2.1 General

The subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes drilled at the site are shown in detail on the attached

Record of Borehole sheets. The following discussion has been simplified in terms of major soil strata for the

purposes of geotechnical design. The soil boundaries have been inferred from non-continuous samples and

observations of drilling and sampling resistance. They may represent a transition from one soil type to another

and should not necessarily be interpreted to represent exact planes of geological change. Further, subsurface

conditions may vary significantly between and beyond the borehole locations.

2.2 Soil Conditions

2.2.1 Pavement Structure

Boreholes 101 to 105 encountered asphalt at the pavement surface. The asphalt was 120 to 300 millimetres

thick at the borehole locations. Borehole 105 also encountered a layer of buried asphalt about 310 millimetres

thick below the fill.

Concrete was encountered beneath the asphalt in borehole 101. The concrete was 250 millimeters thick at the

borehole location.


July 2013 Report No. 13-1132-0081-R01 3

Layers of sand and gravel fill (base and/or subbase) were encountered beneath the concrete in borehole 101

and beneath the asphalt in boreholes 103 to 105. These layers were about 120 to 550 millimetres thick. In

borehole 101, the sand and gravel fill had an N value, as determined in the standard penetration testing, of 8

blows per 0.3 metres with a water content of about 4 per cent.

2.2.2 Fill

Layers of sand fill were encountered beneath the pavement structure in boreholes 102 to 105. The fill layers

were about 0.7 to 2.0 metres thick. The fill had N values ranging from 3 to 14 blows per 0.3 metres with water

contents of 4 per cent to 15 per cent and an average water content of approximately 8 per cent.

A slight hydrocarbon odour was noted in the fill in borehole 102.

2.2.3 Sand

Layers of sand were encountered beneath the pavement structure and/or fill in all of the boreholes. All of the

boreholes were terminated in the sand after exploring it for about 2.9 to 3.9 metres. The sand had N values

ranging from 3 to 31 blows per 0.3 metres with water contents of 2 per cent to 11 per cent.

Grain size distribution curves for samples of the sand recovered from the standard penetration testing are

provided on Figure 2.

2.3 Groundwater Conditions

All of the boreholes remained dry during drilling on June 28, 2013.

Groundwater levels should be expected to fluctuate seasonally and in response to significant precipitation

events.

3.0 DISCUSSION

3.1 General

This section of the report provides recommendations based on our interpretation of the factual information

obtained during the investigation and is intended for the guidance of the design engineer. Where comments are

made on construction, they are provided only in order to highlight those aspects which could affect the design of

the project. Those requiring information on aspects of construction should make their own interpretation of the


July 2013 Report No. 13-1132-0081-R01 4

factual information provided as it may affect equipment selection, proposed construction methods and

scheduling.

Based on the information provided, a fabric covered structure is to be constructed at the A.J. Tyler Operations

Centre. The proposed structure is to be 65 feet (19.8 metres) by 100 feet (30.5 metres) in plan and is to be

anchored to a ‘DNM Lock Block Wall Foundation’ system, which is to be founded on soils with a minimum

bearing capacity of 3000 pounds per square foot (144 kilopascals).

3.2 Foundations

Based on the results of the investigation, the proposed fabric covered structure may be founded on the

proprietary foundation system noted above bearing on the native, undisturbed sand at about elevation 248.5 to

250.0 metres as indicted with the table below.

Borehole Recommended Founding Elevation (m)

101 250.0

102 248.5

103 249.0

104 249.0

105 249.0

The various founding grades can be addressed by properly stepping the footings in accordance with the current

Ontario Building Code.

Alternatively, depending on final grades, the structure could be founded on a properly constructed engineered fill

or founding grade raised with lean concrete.

A factored geotechnical resistance at Ultimate Limit States (ULS) of 225 kilopascals and a geotechnical

resistance at Serviceability Limit States (SLS) at 150 kilopascals may be used for design purposes. The SLS

value corresponds to 25 millimetres of settlement.

All exterior footings and footings in unheated areas should be provided with at least 1.2 metres of soil cover or

thermal equivalent for frost protection.


July 2013 Report No. 13-1132-0081-R01 5

3.3 Engineered Fill

It is recommended that engineered fill, if required, consist of sand and gravel meeting the gradation

requirements for City of London Select Granular B or Granular C. Following removal of all fill materials and any

loose, disturbed or excessively wet materials, the exposed subgrade should be proofrolled under the direction of

the geotechnical engineer. Any poorly performing areas should be subexcavated and reinstated with compacted

Granular B or Granular C. The engineered fill should be placed in horizontal loose lifts a maximum of 300

millimetres thick and uniformly compacted to at least 98 per cent of standard Proctor maximum dry density

(SPMDD).

The engineered fill should extend beyond the building foundations a minimum of one metre plus the thickness of

the fill. Foundations bearing on the engineered fill may be designed using the geotechnical resistances provided

above.

Full-time geotechnical inspection and testing will be required during construction of any engineered fill to ensure

that the subgrade is properly prepared, that suitable fill materials are utilized and that an adequate degree of

compaction is consistently achieved.

3.4 Excavations

Based on the results of the boreholes, excavations at the site will encounter the existing pavement structure, fill

materials and sands. For classification purposes, fill materials would be classified as Type 3 soils and the sands

would be classified as Type 2 soils.

All unsupported excavations should be carried out in accordance with the current Occupational Health and

Safety Act (OHSA). Unsupported excavation side slopes should not exceed an inclination of 1 horizontal to 1

vertical. In some areas, it may be necessary to flatten and/or blanket the excavation side slopes with clear stone

for stability, depending on the prevailing weather conditions.

Based on the conditions encountered in the boreholes, it is considered that groundwater flows into open

excavations will be very minor and adequate groundwater control may be achieved by pumping from properly

constructed and filtered sumps, as required. Care should be taken to direct all surface water away from open

excavations.

3.5 Slab-on-Grade

Following excavation to subgrade level, the area should be heavily proofrolled under the direction of the

geotechnical engineer. Any poorly performing areas identified during proofrolling should be subexcavated and

reinstated with compacted Granular A. If post construction differential movements of the slab-on-grade can be

tolerated, the existing fill can remain in place.


July 2013 Report No. 13-1132-0081-R01 6

The slab-on-grade may be placed directly on the sands and/or engineered fill. At least 150 millimetres of

Granular A should be provided beneath the slab. The Granular A should be compacted to at least 98 per cent of

SPMDD. Unless uncontrolled migration of water vapour through the slab is acceptable, a robust polyethylene

vapour barrier should be provided between the concrete slab and the Granular A. The slab should be kept

structurally separate from walls and columns.

3.6 Geotechnical Inspections and Testing

A regular program of geotechnical inspections and testing should be carried out during construction to confirm

that the conditions being encountered are consistent with the results of the boreholes, to determine that the

intent of the design recommendations provided are being met and that the various project specifications are

being consistently achieved.

We trust that this report provides all of the geotechnical information presently required. Should any point require

further clarification, or if we can be of additional assistance, please contact this office.

Golder Associates Page 2 of 2

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS REPORT (cont’d)

Special risks occur whenever engineering or related disciplines are applied to identify subsurface conditions and even a comprehensive investigation, sampling and testing program may fail to detect all or certain subsurface conditions. The environmental, geologic, geotechnical, geochemical and hydrogeologic conditions that Golder interprets to exist between and beyond sampling points may differ from those that actually exist. In addition to soil variability, fill of variable physical and chemical composition can be present over portions of the site or on adjacent properties. The professional services retained for this project include only the geotechnical aspects of the subsurface conditions at the site, unless otherwise specifically stated and identified in the report. The presence or implication(s) of possible surface and/or subsurface contamination resulting from previous activities or uses of the site and/or resulting from the introduction onto the site of materials from off-site sources are outside the terms of reference for this project and have not been investigated or addressed.

Soil and groundwater conditions shown in the factual data and described in the report are the observed conditions at the time of their determination or measurement. Unless otherwise noted, those conditions form the basis of the recommendations in the report. Groundwater conditions may vary between and beyond reported locations and can be affected by annual, seasonal and meteorological conditions. The condition of the soil, rock and groundwater may be significantly altered by construction activities (traffic, excavation, groundwater level lowering, pile driving, blasting, etc.) on the site or on adjacent sites. Excavation may expose the soils to changes due to wetting, drying or frost. Unless otherwise indicated the soil must be protected from these changes during construction.

Sample Disposal: Golder will dispose of all uncontaminated soil and/or rock samples 90 days following issue of this report or, upon written request of the Client, will store uncontaminated samples and materials at the Client’s expense. In the event that actual contaminated soils, fills or groundwater are encountered or are inferred to be present, all contaminated samples shall remain the property and responsibility of the Client for proper disposal.

Follow-Up and Construction Services: All details of the design were not known at the time of submission of Golder’s report. Golder should be retained to review the final design, project plans and documents prior to construction, to confirm that they are consistent with the intent of Golder’s report.

During construction, Golder should be retained to perform sufficient and timely observations of encountered conditions to confirm and document that the subsurface conditions do not materially differ from those interpreted conditions considered in the preparation of Golder’s report and to confirm and document that construction activities do not adversely affect the suggestions, recommendations and opinions contained in Golder’s report. Adequate field review, observation and testing during construction are necessary for Golder to be able to provide letters of assurance, in accordance with the requirements of many regulatory authorities. In cases where this recommendation is not followed, Golder’s responsibility is limited to interpreting accurately the information encountered at the borehole locations, at the time of their initial determination or measurement during the preparation of the Report. Changed Conditions and Drainage: Where conditions encountered at the site differ significantly from those anticipated in this report, either due to natural variability of subsurface conditions or construction activities, it is a condition of this report that Golder be notified of any changes and be provided with an opportunity to review or revise the recommendations within this report. Recognition of changed soil and rock conditions requires experience and it is recommended that Golder be employed to visit the site with sufficient frequency to detect if conditions have changed significantly. Drainage of subsurface water is commonly required either for temporary or permanent installations for the project. Improper design or construction of drainage or dewatering can have serious consequences. Golder takes no responsibility for the effects of drainage unless specifically involved in the detailed design and construction monitoring of the system.

Note 1 – Fine grained materials with PI and LL that plot in this area are named (ML) SILT with slight plasticity. Fine-grained materials which are non-plastic (i.e. a PL cannot be measured) are named SILT. Note 2 – For soils with <5% organic content, include the descriptor “trace organics” for soils with between 5% and 30% organic content include the prefix “organic” before the Primary name.

Dual Symbol — A dual symbol is two symbols separated by a hyphen, for example, GP-GM, SW-SC and CL-ML. For non-cohesive soils, the dual symbols must be used when the soil has between 5% and 12% fines (i.e. to identify transitional material between “clean” and “dirty” sand or gravel. For cohesive soils, the dual symbol must be used when the liquid limit and plasticity index values plot in the CL-ML area of the plasticity chart (see Plasticity Chart at left). Borderline Symbol — A borderline symbol is two symbols separated by a slash, for example, CL/CI, GM/SM, CL/ML. A borderline symbol should be used to indicate that the soil has been identified as having properties that are on the transition between similar materials. In addition, a borderline symbol may be used to or indicates a range of similar soil types within a stratum.
