Re: Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation

North Davis Sewer District

Section 2 Sewer Replacement (5600 South)

Roy, Utah

INTRODUCTION

The following report presents a summary of our recent Geotechnical Investigation of the proposed

North Davis Sewer District (NDSD) Section 2 sewer line replacement beneath 5600 South (State Road

97) in Roy, Utah as agreed upon in Task Order 153089 dated March 26, 2019. It is our understanding

that the proposed replacement will consist of a 10‐12 inch PVC sewer pipe and several manholes along

the approximately 0.8‐mile section of 5600 South in the Roy, Utah. IGES was asked to evaluate the

nature of the site soils and provide recommendations for preparation of near surface soils to support

the proposed open‐cut installation of the sewer pipe and manholes.

To characterize the subsurface conditions, six soil borings were completed along the alignment of the

sewer line on 5600 South. A geologist from our South Salt Lake office conducted the site investigation

to observe the nature of subsurface soils and groundwater conditions as they pertain to the

installation of the proposed sewer line and manholes. Conditions within the soil borings were also

observed and evaluated to determine the engineering characteristics of the subsurface soils.

SURFACE CONDITIONS

The area investigated for the proposed 5600 South, roughly follows the alignment of an existing sewer

line. This investigation started on the western side of the Interstate 15 (I‐15) near the south‐bound

on ramp and continued west to the intersection of 5600 South and 2500 West; a lone exploration was

also completed near minor improvements proposed at the intersection of 5600 South and 2700 West.

All soil borings were completed within the asphalt roadway of 5600 South. Currently, the 5600 South

roadway provides access west of I‐15 to businesses and subdivisions in Roy and Hooper.

The estimated alignment of the existing/proposed sewer pipeline is shown on the Site

Vicinity/Geologic Map (Figure 1) and the Site Exploration Map (Figure 2) which accompany this letter.

GEOLOGIC AND GEOSEISMIC SETTING

The western most boring (B‐6) is located about 6.5 miles east of the Great Salt Lake within the

sediments of the former Lake Bonneville basin. According to the Geologic Map of the Roy Quadrangle

(Sack, 2005). As mapped by Sack, soils encountered during this investigation should consist of deltaic,

lacustrine and alluvial deposits of Holocene and Pleistocene age depending on their location along the

alignment. Soil types encountered during drilling were described as clay, silt and sand with a minor

gravel‐sized material. The soils encountered in the eastern to central part of the alignment were

described by Sack as sand dominated deltaic deposits of fine to medium sand and crossed by channel

deposits of gravel or sand and gravel. The soil encountered in the western part of the alignment are

described by Sack as being undifferentiated lacustrine and alluvial deposits of fine sand grading to

gravelly sands (Sack, 2005). The Site Vicinity/Geologic Map (Figure 1) shows the surficial geology,

alignment along 5600 South and the locations of soil borings B‐1 through B‐6.

Based on the US Geological Survey, Roy, Utah 7.5‐minute topographic map, the alignment is located

on the boundary of Sections 14 and 23, in Township 5 North and Range 2 West. The alignment

decreases in elevation from east to west. The eastern most soil boring (B‐1) has an approximate

elevation of 4535 feet above mean sea level (msl) and the western most soil boring (B‐6) has an

approximate elevation of 4400 feet above msl (USGS, 1990).

Faulting and Seismicity

There are no known active faults mapped that pass under or immediately adjacent to the Section 2

sewer alignment (Sack, 2005). A concealed fault is mapped on the Roy Geologic Map as being

approximately 2.5 miles to the west of the western most boring (Sack, 2005). The base of the Wasatch

Mountains and the Wasatch fault zone is mapped approximately 6.5 miles east of the eastern extent

of the Section 2 sewer alignment along the western flank of the Wasatch Mountains (Nelson and

Personius, 1993). Analyses of ground shaking hazard along the Wasatch Front suggests that the

Wasatch fault zone is the single greatest contributor to the seismic hazard in the region.

Other Geologic Hazards

Geologic hazards can be defined as naturally occurring geologic conditions or processes that could

present a danger to human life and property. These hazards must be considered before development

of the site. There are several hazards in addition to seismicity and faulting that, if present at the site,

should be considered in the design and construction of habitable structures and other critical

infrastructure. Potential hazards considered for this site include, liquefaction, seiche, problematic soil

or rock, and shallow groundwater.

Liquefaction

Certain areas within the intermountain region also possess a potential for liquefaction during seismic

events. Liquefaction is a phenomenon whereby loose, saturated, granular soil deposits lose a

significant portion of their shear strength due to excess pore water pressure buildup resulting from

dynamic loading, such as that caused by an earthquake. Among other effects, liquefaction can result

in densification of such deposits causing rapid settlements of overlying layers after an earthquake as

excess pore water pressures are dissipated. In the case of a buried structure or utilities, increased

pore water pressures create excess uplift forces acting on the buried entity. The primary factors

affecting liquefaction potential of a soil deposit are: (1) level and duration of seismic ground motions;

(2) soil type and consistency; and (3) depth to groundwater. Soils that are very dense, unsaturated

(above groundwater), or contain greater than 15% clay by weight (Chinese Criteria) are not considered

susceptible to liquefaction (Youd et al., 2001). Effects of severe liquefaction can include sand boils,

excessive settlement and/or bearing capacity failures, lateral spreading and flow landsliding.

Identifying soils susceptible to liquefaction involves gaining an understanding of the local geology,

subsurface soil, and groundwater conditions.

A full assessment for the 5600 South alignment for liquefaction potential has not been performed and

would include a boring exploration extending to at least 40 feet below the site grade. Such exploration

is beyond the scope of work authorized.

In Utah, the locations most likely to contain liquefiable soils are along rivers, streams and lake

shorelines, as well as ancient river and lake deposits. Potentially liquefiable deposits are generally

restricted to late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentary deposits. Based on these criteria and geologic

mapping, the Section 2 sewer line alignment on 5600 South is likely to be installed near or in

liquefiable deposits for at least some length. Referring to the "Liquefaction‐potential map for a part

of Weber County, Utah” (Anderson et. al., 1994) published by the Utah Geological Survey, most of the

proposed sewer alignment is in an area designated as “high” for liquefaction potential.

Based on field conditions observed and laboratory testing of samples collected, the soil deposits along

the proposed sewer alignment are variable, but do contain poorly‐graded sands with silt (SP‐SM) and

silty sands (SM) with low to moderate fines content moderate to low density. These cohesionless soils

are considered likely to liquefy during an earthquake if they are saturated at the time of an

earthquake. Saturated, cohesionless soils were encountered near anticipated pipe depth within the

westernmost explorations (B‐5 and B‐6) and may also be encountered at depths greater than those

encountered in the shallow explorations performed for this assessment. Vertical settlement of soil

deposits associated with liquefaction is considered probable in this portion of the sewer alignment

during an earthquake. Localized vertical settlement of pipelines may result in separation of pipes at

joints but is generally not significant enough to shear piping. Anderson et al. (1994) indicated that for

Weber County, lateral spreading is the most likely form of liquefaction‐induced ground failure and

that lifelines (roads, utilities, etc.) are the improvements most susceptible to damage. Lateral

spreading because of soil liquefaction occurs on slope gradients ranging from approximately 0.5 to 5

percent. The overall slope of the ground surface along this portion of the alignment is less than .05

percent. At present, the horizontal and vertical extent of liquefiable soil deposits and the resulting

potential for permanent ground displacement during an earthquake are not known.

Problematic Soils and Rock

Problematic soils in Utah can occur as shrinking or swelling clays, hydro‐collapsible soils, organic peat,

andesite weathering to clay, amongst others. We did not encounter soils that exhibited visible signs

of hydro‐collapse potential. We do not anticipate significant organic (peat) deposits in the area. Given

the anticipated shallow depth of pipe installation, the planned excavation is not expected to

encounter bedrock.

SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION

IGES Inc. completed six soil borings along the alignment between September 23 and 24, 2019 working

night hours due to traffic along 5600 South. Soil borings extended to depths of 16.0 and 16.5 feet

below ground surface (bgs). Exploration locations are shown on the attached Site Exploration Map,

Figure 2 in Appendix A. Soil borings were completed by ConeTec, Inc. utilizing a truck mounted CME

750 drill rig equipped with hollow stem augers. The conditions encountered in the boring were

observed and logged by an IGES field geologist and conditions encountered are presented in Appendix

A on the Boring Logs (Figures 3 through 8). The stratification lines shown on the enclosed Logs

represent the approximate boundary between soil types. A Key to Soil Symbols and Terminology is

located on Figure 9. Samples were collected and classified by the field geologist according to the

Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Disturbed samples were obtained using a split spoon and

relatively undisturbed samples were obtained utilized a California type sampler. Representative

samples were packaged and transported to the IGES geotechnical laboratory in South Salt Lake City

for subsequent review and testing.

The observed subsurface conditions during the drilling of the three eastern most soil borings (B‐1

through B‐3) along the alignment were primarily medium dense Poorly Graded SAND with silt (SP‐

SM). The observed subsurface conditions during the drilling of the three western most soil borings (B‐

4 through B‐6) along the alignment were primarily loose to medium dense Silty SAND and SILT with

some interbedded medium‐stiff to hard CLAY. There was evidence of flowing sands near anticipated

pipe depth in the western part of the sewer alignment at B‐5 and B‐6.

Based on observed soil moisture in soil from soil borings B‐1 through B‐4, groundwater was not

encountered in the majority of the alignment. However, groundwater was reported to be between

12.5 and 14.0 feet bgs, respectively in B‐5 and B‐6. Long‐term monitoring of groundwater was outside

the authorized scope and schedule of work; however, it should be noted that the depth to

groundwater will naturally fluctuate seasonally and annually with variations in precipitation, irrigation

and runoff. Given the late summer‐early fall time of our investigation, it is possible for groundwater

levels to rise 2‐3 feet above levels encountered during this study.

LABORATORY INVESTIGATION

Representative soil samples were tested in our laboratory following applicable standards to evaluate

engineering properties. These tests selected were completed to aid in characterizing the soils and

their pertinent engineering properties for design. Laboratory testing conducted during this

investigation include:

Water Content and Unit Weight of Soil (ASTM D7263 Method B and D2216)

Atterberg Limits (ASTM D4318)

Particle‐Size Distribution (ASTM D6913)

Direct Shear, 3 Point (ASTM 3080)

Corrosion Properties (AASHTO T 288, T289; ASTM D 4327, C 1580; EPA 300)

The results of the laboratory index testing are presented in the individual boring logs in Appendix A.

A summary table of the testing results and the laboratory data are included in Appendix B.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on the subsurface conditions encountered at the site, it is our opinion that the site is suitable

for the proposed construction. Supporting data upon which the following recommendations are

based on information presented previously in this report. The general recommendations presented

herein are governed by the physical properties of the soils encountered in the field and laboratory

investigations.

Excavation

The soil and moisture conditions encountered during our investigation classify as OSHA Type C soils

because of the granular nature of the sand and gravels. For excavations deeper than 5 feet, the walls

of the excavation should be constructed with side slopes no steeper than one and one‐half horizontal

to one vertical (1.5H:1V). Further flattening of slopes may be necessary if shoring/shielding measures

are not implemented. To minimize additional disturbance of surrounding roads, utilities and existing

structures, we anticipate that the use of temporary shoring or shielding is likely to provide protection

of persons, equipment and installed piping.

The contractor is ultimately responsible for trench and site safety. Pertinent OSHA requirements

should be met to provide a safe work environment. If site specific conditions arise that require

engineering analysis in accordance with OSHA regulations, IGES can respond and provide

recommendations as needed.

Shallow Groundwater

Soil moisture in the two borings ranged from slightly moist to wet and shallow groundwater of 12.5

and 14.0 feet bgs was encountered within the two western‐most soil borings (B‐5 and B‐6). Observed

moisture conditions in B‐1 through B‐4 were generally described as slightly‐moist and lacking enough

moisture that would indicate the presences of groundwater. Long‐term monitoring of groundwater

fluctuations was not performed as part of this work scope. We anticipate that our field investigation

was performed at a time of year when groundwater levels were falling, but not yet at their annual low

levels. Groundwater levels will fluctuate under normal, seasonal climatic cycles; they can rise several

feet from annual low levels, possibly creating additional concerns during construction even in areas

that may appear relatively dry during other times of the year. In the area of this project, the contractor

should anticipate dewatering of open trenches and excavations to maintain slope stability and

working conditions during open‐cut pipe installation. Design of dewatering measures is outside the

scope of our services. Sloping of trench floors will promote run‐off away from working areas and can

also provide a depression/collection point which will enhance the effectiveness of pumping efforts

from within the trenches.

Shoring Parameters

An average total unit weight of 115 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) was obtained for relatively undisturbed

soil samples. Based on laboratory field observations and laboratory test results, we recommend using

a friction angle of 30 degrees for shoring design for the upper 10‐15 feet of site soil.

Lateral Forces

Ultimate lateral earth pressures from natural soils and backfill acting against buried structures may

be computed from the lateral pressure coefficients presented in the following table.

Lateral Earth‐pressure Coefficients

Earth Pressure Condition Lateral Pressure Coefficient

(symbol)

Active 0.33 (kA)

At‐rest 0.50 (kO)

Passive 3.00 (kp)

These coefficients assume level, on‐site native soil backfill with no buildup of hydrostatic pressures.

The force of the water should be added to the presented values where hydrostatic pressures are

anticipated during construction. Additionally, if sloping backfill is present, IGES should be consulted

to provide more accurate lateral pressure parameters once the design geometry is established.

Walls and structures allowed to rotate slightly should use the active condition. If the element is

constrained against rotation, the at‐rest condition should be used. These values should be used with

an appropriate factor of safety against overturning and sliding. Values of 2.0 and 1.5 for overturning

and sliding, respectively, are typically used.

For permanent earth retention or buried structures the pressure distribution of the dynamic

horizontal thrust may be closely approximated as an inverted triangle with stress decreasing with

depth, and the resultant acting at a distance approximately 0.6 times the loaded height of the

structure, measured upward from the bottom of the structure.

Trench Stabilization, Backfill and Compaction

It is possible that moderate to high moisture conditions will be encountered during construction.

Increased soil moisture could result from rising groundwater, increased precipitation, run‐off or

irrigation in the project area. Precautions should be taken to protect open excavations from potential

off‐site run‐on during storm events. Should such events occur, they could result in soft or pumping

soils and equipment or personnel mobility challenges within the relatively loose silty sand, silt or clay

soil types encountered during our investigation. When encountered, soft/pumping soils should be

dewatered and stabilized prior to placement and compaction of bedding material and backfill.

Stabilization of the subgrade soils can be accomplished using a clean, coarse angular material worked

into the loose or soft subgrade.

We recommend the material utilized for subgrade stabilization be greater than 2‐inches in nominal

diameter, but less than 6 inches. Crushed, angular rock is generally preferred for stabilization efforts;

rounded “river rock” is not recommended for stabilization material. Locally available pit‐run gravel

Page 8: Brown & Caldwell Re: Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation … S.pdf · Water Content and Unit Weight of Soil (ASTM D7263 Method B and D2216) Atterberg Limits (ASTM D4318) Particle‐Size

P a g e | 8

Copyright ©2019, IGES, Inc. L00414‐024 (5600 S).docx

may be suitable but should contain a high percentage of particles larger than 2 inches and have less

than 10 percent fines (material passing the No. 200 sieve). Pit‐run gravel may not be as effective as a

course, angular material in stabilizing the loose or soft soils and will likely require more material be

placed. The stabilization material should be worked (pushed) into the soft or loose subgrade soils until

a firm unyielding surface is established. Once a firm, unyielding surface is achieved, the area may be

brought to final design grade using compacted granular backfill.

Stabilization using the relatively large diameter crushed rock as outlined in the previous paragraph

assumes that no other materials would be used. If this option is selected, additional excavation depth

may be required to allow for placement of suitable thickness of bedding material prior to compaction

of bedding, shading and other backfill soils. Alternately, stabilization options using geotextile fabric

may be utilized in conjunction with smaller diameter soil/rock to facilitate stabilization of the trench

floor. Geotextile may allow for a reduction in the thickness of stabilization materials needed and allow

for suitable bedding material to assist in stabilization efforts.

All pipe bedding and shading fills should be placed and compacted to the requisite APWA standards

and specifications. Excavations in landscape areas or other non‐pavement areas above the piping

envelop (bedding and shade) should be backfilled and compacted to approximately 90 percent of the

Maximum Dry Density (MDD) as determined by ASTM D‐1557 (Modified Proctor). Below pavement

sections or structures, backfill above the piping envelope should be compacted to 95% of the MDD.

These are general recommendations and the contractor should also be aware of Roy City, Davis

County, NDSD and UDOT requirements for pavement and subgrade thickness, gradation, compaction

and testing for rehabilitation/replacement of pavement sections disturbed during construction. If

there is a conflict between our recommendations and the applicable municipality standards, the most

stringent requirements should govern.

Backfill Placement and Compaction

If utilized, any fill placed for the support of structures, flatwork or pavements, should consist of

structural fill. Structural fill may be comprised of native granular soils and meet the AASHTO

requirement of an A‐2‐7 soil or better. Structural fill should be placed and be appropriately moisture

conditioned and compacted. Structural fill should be free of vegetation, debris, and contain no rocks

larger than 3 inches in nominal size (4 inches in greatest dimension).

All utility trenches backfilled below pavement sections, curb and gutter and concrete flatwork, should

be backfilled with road base compacted to at least 95 percent of the MDD as determined by AASHTO

T 180. All other trenches, including landscape areas, should be backfilled and compacted to

approximately 90 percent of the MDD.

Soil Corrosion and Chemistry

Laboratory test results on two soil samples indicate that in‐situ soils have low potential for sulfate

attack to concrete with sulfate contents measured to 9.97 and 10.2 ppm. Laboratory‐measured

electrical resistivity on two soil samples (1,489 and 5,625 Ω‐cm) indicates a moderate potential for

corrosion for steel that is in direct contact with native soils.

Based on soil results of chemical testing, Type II cement or better may be used for any planned

concrete elements of construction that will be in contact with native soils. Resistivity testing results

indicated that native soils at the site should only be corrosive to steel. If desired, a qualified corrosion

engineer may be retained for further evaluation if necessary; specifically, in the design any steel or

steel fittings that will be in direct contact with native soil.

Pipe Deflection ‐ E’ Values

Vertical deflection of installed pipeline is largely a function of the embedment material selected and

the degree to which it is compacted above/around the pipe. Following the recommendation and

methods specified by Howard (2015) values of E’ (Modulus of Soil Reaction) are provided below for

use in calculation of pipe deflection by others. These values should be used only with the Reclamation

Equation presented in Howard (2015) for estimation of vertical deflection; noting that horizontal

deflection is generally 25% to 50% of the vertical deflection.

Backfill properties could vary along the alignment depending on the use of native/imported material

as backfill and native soil conditions in the exposed trench side walls. General backfill above the pipe

zone can largely be ignored in estimating pipe deflection. We recommend that native soils are

excluded from placement within the pipe zone. The width of trench, distance between installed pipe

and native soils must also be considered in estimating pipe deflection. If trench walls will be more

than two pipe diameters from the installed piping at the spring‐line (total trench width > 5x pipe

diameter), E’b values for compacted embedment soils may be used in estimating pipe deflection.

For imported granular embedment materials consisting of Sands and Gravels having less than 12%

fines, an E’b value of 2,000 psi should be used. If imported granular backfill contains 13% or more

fines a value of 1,000 psi should be used. All the ‘compacted’ values given above assume a degree of

compaction greater than 90% of the maximum dry unit weight measured by ASTM D‐698 or AASHTO

T‐99 (Standard Proctor). If the trench sidewalls are closer than two pipe‐diameters, a composite E’

value must be calculated using E’n/E’b and the ratio or trench width to pipe diameter (B/D) as outlined

in Howard (2015). At present, we are not sure the design pipe depth, but based on current pipe depth

(which is being replaced) we assume it will be greater than 8‐feet below grade in most of the

alignment. Based on our field exploration and the current design plans that illustrate pipe depth along

the alignment, we recommend that E’n values shown in the following table be used to represent

existing native sand or clay trench sidewalls to determine a composite E’ value.
